The Restaurant @ Fleur de Lis

The Private Restaurant at Fleur de Lis is a completely private, stand-alone event space in Mandeville, Louisiana, on the Northshore, about 35 minutes from New Orleans. It hosts up to approximately 100 guests and is booked as a private buyout, not a reserved section of a larger dining room. A Building of Its Own The Private Restaurant has its own guest entrance, restrooms, bar, front courtyard and covered patio, so your event stays private from arrival through departure. Most events here run 20 guests or more, though there is no formal guest minimum. The space works equally well for a seated dinner, a cocktail-style reception or a daytime luncheon, and our team handles setup, service and cleanup. Ideal For Rehearsal dinners, bridal and wedding showers, baby showers, smaller weddings and receptions, post-wedding brunches, birthdays, anniversaries, retirement parties, celebrations of life, corporate dinners and luncheons, networking events, holiday parties and private gatherings. Pricing Rehearsal dinner packages are priced per guest: $57 per person with food and open bar, or $47 per person with food and non-alcoholic beverages. Both include the room, staffing, setup and cleanup, with a $1,250 minimum. Other event types have their own menu and package structures depending on format and guest count. Prices are before tax. Food Menus are prepared in our on-site commercial kitchen by the same culinary team behind Fleur de Lis Event Center's ballroom weddings. Options range from passed hors d'oeuvres and stations to seated dinners and brunch service. Some share dishes with our Louisiana wedding menu, including seafood gumbo, Cajun jambalaya, shrimp and grits, crab cakes and mini muffulettas. Others are built specifically for showers, luncheons or corporate dinners. Custom menu requests and family recipes can be discussed, and we accommodate many dietary needs with advance notice. Commercially prepared outside cakes and desserts are welcome. Bar Full bar service is available, along with beer and wine, signature cocktails, non-alcoholic and mocktail options, and custom bar arrangements. All alcohol is provided through Fleur de Lis under our liquor license. Rehearsal Dinners A rehearsal dinner is a separate booking from a wedding, subject to availability, and can be held the night before or on another date that fits your schedule. Booking a wedding at Fleur de Lis does not automatically reserve the Private Restaurant, so let us know early if you want both. Practical Details Free on-site parking with adjoining overflow. Climate controlled with Wi-Fi throughout, and the courtyard serves as a designated smoking area. Floor plans available by request. Booking A signed contract and $500 deposit reserves your date. Military discount: $250 off Private Restaurant events. Gratuity is never required. Fleur de Lis Event Center also operates two ballrooms, the Pontchartrain and the Jazz, for larger weddings and events accommodating up to 500 guests.
