Wine Acadiana offers a rich mixture of American, French (primarily from the
Rhône and Burgundy regions), and African wines.
Smoking Acadiana is a smoke-free establishment.
Menu A contemporary interpretation of a Louisiana Fish House, Acadiana
offers a serendipitous blend of modern interpretations of traditional and customary dishes, reflecting the bounty of Louisiana, in the finest of seafood and premium meats. The dishes represent the various cooking techniques borrowed from the Lafourche-Teche area that spans from the state’s capital, Baton Rouge, to the western city of Opelousas, and the many other ethnic communities abounding in the state of Louisiana.
Venue Acadiana occupies the ground floor of a glass-and-steel wedge-shaped
building on a triangular plot of land across from Washington’s bustling convention center and the Museum of the City of Washington. Its striking multi-level interior, with its numerous secluded rooms for private dining, is a modern and elegant take on the distinctive look of southern Louisiana. The interior, like the menu, is at once familiar and comfortable, and bold and exciting – a fine way to dine on the best that Louisiana has to offer.
