Not happy about increased menu prices, but will still be worth it for the atmosphere I think.

Originally Posted By sdlovesmickey I was told I could have priority seating at Cafe Orleans starting on the 25th and Blue Bayou on the 26th. You can go into Cafe Orleans without priority seating, but since it is just reopening might be a good idea to have. Sorry about the confusion. I think that Cafe Orleans is actually open before the 25th, but I am not sure what day. I know some other posts here talked about it.
