Restaurant Week in New Orleans

This post has the information you need to make the most of New Orleans’ bi-annual Restaurant Week.

In 2022, the dates were announced as June 20-26, however, the main website has no information as of May 20.

WHAT IS RESTAURANT WEEK

During Restaurant Week, over 80 restaurants in New Orleans offer a prix-fixe menu at discounted prices.

Some of the most famous eateries participate, like Antoine's, Charlie’s Steak House and Galatoire’s Restaurant.

Prices vary by the restaurant but are generally around $20 lunch and $39 dinner. Note that the prices do not include drinks or tips.

Still, the savings are amazing! This means that many other people will want to enjoy this opportunity so be sure to make reservations early!
