Bayona, New Orleans

We traveled from Ocean Springs, Mississippi to New Orleans where we spent an afternoon having lunch and walking around the French Quarter. I made a reservation for us to have dinner at Bayona. They are currently open from Thursday-Sunday evenings.

Since COVID cases have been on the rise, we are mostly very leery of eating in restaurants, especially those that are somewhat crowded. Fine dining presents a problem in that a meal may last a few hours. We were fortunate to have the dining room at Bayona to ourselves for the first hour or so of dinner there. Afterwards, three more people came in a were seated on the far end of the restaurant from where we were seated. Staff is very cognizant of precautions and masked up during service.

Melanie had a lamb dish and I had Red Snapper, both nicely prepared. We like what has become our annual dining experience at Bayona and recommend it to you as well.
