About Us: French Quarter Mexican Food

Our Story

Founded in 2017, French Quarter Mexican Food is a passion project turned thriving online resource dedicated to exploring and celebrating the rich culinary heritage of Mexican cuisine within the vibrant context of New Orleans’ historic French Quarter. We were born out of a deep-rooted love for both authentic Mexican food and the unique blend of cultures that define this iconic neighborhood.

Our journey began as a small team on a mission to bridge the gap between the bustling streets of the French Quarter and the homes of hungry locals and travelers seeking authentic, high-quality Mexican dining experiences. We realized there was a lack of comprehensive online resources offering unbiased, in-depth information about the diverse culinary offerings of this vibrant neighborhood.
