Las Cruces Tex Mex

New Orleans Favorite Avenue Pub Reopens With New Owners, Even Better Menu | Eater New Orleans

"I'm watching a promising new restaurant from the team behind Central City BBQ take shape: Las Cruces is planned for late summer 2023 at 2935 Airline Drive in Old Metairie and will blend the smoked meats Central City BBQ is known for with Tex-Mex staples. The project is a partnership between Marc Bonifacic (who opened Central City BBQ in 2016) and Aaron Burgau (owner of Patois and Charlie’s Steakhouse), and the 8,000-square-foot space is expected to offer indoor and outdoor seating for 300." - Clair Lorell
