Westbank Fleamarket

We stumbled upon this flea market on a Saturday morning and I'm so glad we did. I loved the different food vendors that were there serving the most tasty Latin American food. It's a one stop shop for your taste buds to travel Latin America- no passport or cash needed. They had food vendors from Mexico all the way to the Dominican Republic. We tried shakes from Honduras- we picked strawberry and guyabano. Both flavors were delicious and cooled us down. Next we got carne asada arepas from Colombia, the meat was seasoned so well and it was oozing with cheese. We played it safe and got tacos from the Mexican spot. They were delicious! The tortillas were freshly pressed and the meat was loaded. They also give you a red salsa and green. I wish we would've left room for dessert because there were some good looking dessert options. I will definitely be back! If you do stop by, bring your appetite and athleisure wear (it's hot and you will leave with a full belly).

This is the first flea market I have visited in the New Orleans area.I was a little underwhelmed as most of the stores sold the same items and came only in kids' sizes. The food court offered mostly Latin/South American options. I really wanted some french fries but could not find any. For a nice Saturday afternoon, I wanted to see more of the vendors open for business. I do like the fixed structure of the flea market versus the typical mobile structure you usually see.

WOW I came here to check out the BBQ at NOLA BBQEAUX and also discovered this place is basically a huge mall food court of all kinds of food (mostly Central/South American with a dash of Asian). They also have all sorts of vendors selling all manner of varied and interesting items. The only downside is that it seems the place shuts down around 4ish and is open only on Saturday and Sunday so it isn't going to generally be a good spot for a dinner unless you like to eat early. This place has a lot going on and might take you several weekends to fully explore.

I solid 2.5 for me. I stopped in here today since there was finally some nice weather, and I had been wanting to see what this flea market/food stand park was all about. It's all food from places like Cuba, Mexico, Ecuador, and the like, which I'm all about because I love Latin food. I had also heard rumblings about a BBQ place that was to die for, so I was intrigued.First of all, the entire park is outside under a covered walkway. Yes, it's summer and yes, it's hot. There's nothing anyone can do about that, and 10 minutes in you're going to be miserable, so just prepare yourself. After doing a lap and checking out what the different places had to offer, I decided to go with Cafe Cuba for my lunch today. I'll save that review for their business listing. I didn't see the rumored BBQ place, so I wonder if it closed down.Looking over the menus for some of these places, I was kind of taken aback by the pricing. Some places were straight up over priced for what is essentially street food. I wouldn't mind paying these prices in a restaurant, but not in what is essentially a covered parking lot. There are A LOT of really good Latin American restaurants all around the Westbank that are cheaper and you don't have to sit outside. One suggestion: maybe add a band to the area for a festive feel. The place was pretty dead today and I think more people might be interested if it wasn't so quiet. It is the weekend, after all.Along with all the food vendors, they do have little stands of people selling housewares, clothing, candles and incense and things like that. They are only open on Saturdays and Sundays and I'm not sure if they plan on expanding their hours to other days of the week. Parking is plentiful, so I was happy about that. I feel like this is a place that Eastbankers will frequent for the novelty, and also because they don't know about all the great Latin American restaurants we have over here. I would suggest going and making your own judgement, but for me it was nothing special.

Fresh food, plenty of vendors, spotless bathrooms, plenty of parking and space. It's obvious that management invested a lot in creating a first class experience. I will definitely be back!

Awesome Latin food experience!!! The variety is amazing and vast. Definitely worth the trip across the river to the Westbank

Had an amazing time. Nice, clean place and plenty of good food and drinks. Will definitely be back with an army to try the array of cuisines.
