It’s no secret that Louisiana has some of the best food on the planet. People travel from all over just to get a taste of it and we are blessed that we get to eat it whenever we want. While one could make the argument that you’d never have to leave New Orleans when it comes to eating out, it would be a shame to dismiss all of the phenomenal restaurants that are located just outside the city. That’s certainly the case with this beautiful restaurant near New Orleans that’s got the whole package: great food, a dazzling atmosphere, and a charming courtyard and it’s less than 30 minutes from New Orleans. Let’s check it out.

Nestled in downtown Hammond, Jacmel Inn is an incredible hidden gem that’s worth the 30-minute drive from New Orleans.
