The Best Big Group Dinner Restaurants In New Orleans - New Orleans - The Infatuation

"Right where the Lafitte Greenway meets Bayou St. John in Mid-City is a big compound formed by Bayou Beer Garden and Bayou Wine Garden. The related (though separate businesses) share a massive courtyard, where the crowds for both spill into each other while watching the latest game on TV or digging into heaping piles of fries, burgers, and wraps. You might also get lucky and score a couple of pounds of freshly-boiled crawfish from a vendor out back, who pulls right into the parking lot to serve the masses. Just remember that the bars have separate menus, so take a walk around to scope out your favorites amongst the extensive list of beers and wines on tap and by the bottle." - chelsea brasted
