Everyone has their favorite restaurant they go back to over and over again, but sometimes it's nice to branch out and try something new. Fortunately, there's no shortage of incredible restaurants around the Pelican State, from affordable to extravagant.
Yelp released its ninth annual Top 100 U.S. restaurants list for 2022 and plenty of amazing eateries snagged a spot on the list, including a few restaurants right here in Louisiana. Here's how the list was curated:
"To create Yelp's Top 100 US Restaurants list, we first reached out to Yelpers for their favorite dining spots. Then, we ranked each by total number of submissions, ratings, reviews, and geographic representation, among other factors."
So which Louisiana restaurants are among the best in the country?
- No. 49: Bywater Bakery in New Orleans
