 The Louisiana Restaurant Association’s Greater New Orleans Chapter, in partnership with New Orleans & Company, is excited to announce its tenth annual Restaurant Week New Orleans will be held October 5-11, 2020. A special thanks to our 2020 Restaurant Week New Orleans presenting sponsor, TABASCO® brand, who has supported the event for the last three years.
 
During this weeklong celebration of New Orleans cuisine, participating restaurants in the New Orleans metro area will offer special pre-fixe menus including a two-course lunch for $25 or less and a three-course dinner or brunch for $45 or less. Many establishments are fully embracing the takeout trend and offering a to-go option as part of this year’s promotion.
 
We are pleased to present Restaurant Week New Orleans as our first promotional program since COVID began. The favorable positive case data in Orleans and Jefferson parishes’ paved the way for this popular event’s return. Restaurant Week New Orleans is designed to celebrate the area’s diverse and award-winning dining options, with more than 40 restaurants registered to participate to date. “Our restaurants have embraced the reopening guidelines as they focus on best practices in social distancing and sanitation to provide a safe environment for our guests and team members. Our world renowned cuisine remains the star of the show,” said LRA President and CEO Stan Harris. 
 
Participating restaurants range from fine-dining establishments to neighborhood favorites. Discover new places or try something new at a trusty staple.  
 
The LRA projects the event will inject a sales boost into an industry that has struggled with closures and restrictions during the pandemic.
