| DRAGO'S is not in the Quarter - but it's close. (Hilton Riverside Hotel next to Harrah's). This is where locals eat charbroilded oysters - and great poboys and more! This second Drago's location was opened to provide convenience to visitors. The original location is between the airport and downtown. Great way to avoid the line at Acme Oyster House in the Quarter! DRAGO'S is one of our great secret locations - a major favorite for locals. (And now there are two locations !) Great lunch specials. (featured on "The Food Network") |
