BACKSTORY (July 24, 1966 —February 17, 2023): This New Orleans Square restaurant featured cafeteria-style service with an outdoor seating area. It was closed on February 17, 2023 (along with the Mint Julep Bar) to make way for Tiana’s Palace, based on the Disney animated movie “The Princess and the Frog” (2009).
