Restaurant des Familles · Retail Property For Sale

Restaurant des Familles is located on the dreamy "Bayou des Familles." The waterway provides views of South Louisiana's finest landscape replete with a variety of alligators, turtles and egrets surrounded by moss-filled century-old oak trees. Just a 15-mile drive from downtown New Orleans, Restaurant des Familles sits on the other side of Jean Lafitte National Park. The Acadian-style architecture provides a glimpse of bayou life that once was - just a few miles away from New Orleans. The menu features authentic representations of Cajun and Creole favorites such as Crawfish Etouffee, Seafood & Okra Gumbo, Seafood Platters and Turtle Soup, making this the perfect spot for tourists and locals alike, whether after a swamp tour, a round at TPC Louisiana, or day on the tracks at NOLA Motorsports. A loyal local crowd fills the restaurant on weekends for lunch and dinner as well as to celebrate milestones such as birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, and graduations. The building was almost completely renovated after a fire damaged a large portion in July 2020, including all new HVAC, electric, plumbing, sprinkler system, kitchen equipment (some still under warranty), cypress wood fireplace mantle and other furnishings.
