I am sad to report that we have pulled out of the location in Metairie. When we signed the lease back in March, we had high hopes for post-Covid life that took an unexpected turn for the worse with the Delta variant. By the time Hurricane Ida rolled around, we were three months behind schedule, our chef had found another job, and none of the electrical or HVAC was up to code. The hurricane was the last nail in the coffin as the expenses and delays became too big of a burden for us to bear. This may not be the last you've heard from Mama, but we couldn't make it happen at this point in time. Hopefully, you'll be able to get some of our nachos and margaritas in the future. We still think 5200 Veterans is a great space for a restaurant if anyone is interested in it. It's just not going to work out for us. Sorry to disappoint everyone.
