Tujague's Restaurant, the second oldest dining establishment in New Orleans, Louisiana, has stood as a timeless symbol of culinary tradition and vibrant culture since 1856.

Tujague's has colored the canvas of New Orleans' gastronomic scene for over 165 years. The restaurant and bar were initially established by Guillaume and Marie Abadie Tujague, immigrants from France, who began their American journey by peddling French loaves to local markets. Their small enterprise subsequently blossomed into a beloved local institution. Glass cases filled with vintage photographs and memorabilia accentuate the establishment's rich history, while the wooden bar, original from when the restaurant was first established, toasts to the enduring spirit of tradition.

In addition to its salivating menu, Tujague's dining interweaves with some extraordinary historic landmarks. Directly across is the lively open market of the French Quarter, the heart of the oldest neighborhood in the city. The Mississippi River, roaring undisputedly as America's longest river, idly rolls a few blocks away, presenting an evocative tableau of the Southern spirit against the setting sun.
