Seafood restaurant · Metairie

@eater

"Drago’s is the original home of chargrilled oysters — it opened in 1969, but owner Tommy Cvitanovich first introduced the future staple in 1993 — a concoction of garlic, butter, and herbs brushed on creamy, salty Gulf oysters, topped with a mix of Parmesan and Romano cheese, and thrown on a hot grill until they bubble. A perfect bite (or slurp) of food." - Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
