Mambo’s

411 Bourbon St. New Orleans, LA 70130

Vue

1600 Canal Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70112

Here’s what one customer says about Vue. “After checking around, I heard this was the best rooftop in New Orleans. So I gave it a try. Definitely a great experience and very cheap happy hour drink specials.”

Alto

600 Carondelet St, New Orleans, Louisiana

Final Word

Rooftop bars aside, New Orleans has some of the best dining spots in the nation.

When New Orleans’ food is mentioned on a national level, it somehow always reverts back to gumbo, which is the best around, although the city’s eateries certainly represent those dishes well, there’s so much more.
