Your Own Private Restaurant for the Night
Nestled in historic West End near the edge of Lake Pontchartrain, we sit just ten minutes from the French Quarter with none of the chaos that comes with it. Experience the quiet energy of one of New Orleans' oldest and most storied neighborhoods.
One of the City's Best Kept Event Secrets
This isn't a private room in the back. This isn't a sectioned-off corner of a busy dining room.
When you book Sala for your private event, you get the entire restaurant. Every table. The full bar. The kitchen preparing exclusively for your guests. The whole experience is yours for the night.
Built Around Your Event, Not the Other Way Around
We've hosted it all — rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, birthday celebrations, anniversary dinners, corporate dinners, holiday parties, baby showers, graduation celebrations, and every milestone moment in between.
We offer curated event packages to make planning straightforward, and every one of them can be tailored to fit your guest count, menu preferences, bar program, and your budget.
