Bayou, Washington’s highly-acclaimed New Orleans style restaurant, is gearing up for its Seventh Annual Mardi Gras celebration on Tuesday, February 28, 2017. The celebration begins at 11am and will continue late into the night.

Chef Rusty Holman and team are looking forward to offering guests an authentic taste of New Orleans’ Mardi Gras in the heart of Washington, D.C. Festivities begin at 11am on Fat Tuesday, featuring New Orleans favorites such as jambalaya, assorted po’ boys, hurricanes, and much more.

From 5pm to 9pm, Bayou will offer an all-you-can-eat buffet for $25 per person, featuring a wide assortment of Chef Rusty’s famed Cajun cuisine and Mardi Gras King Cake.
