Our Venues
Clesi's at Bottinelli Place is a New Orleans venue unlike any other.
Bottinelli Place is a one-block cobblestone street nestled between two cemeteries. It hosts a two-block compound of mostly brick buildings that also extends along the 4900 block of Canal Street and features notable salvaged parts from razed properties throughout the city.
Under sole ownership since the mid-20th century, this special spot is steeped in Creole Italian heritage and New Orleans architectural history.

"We had our dinner in the Garden and it was perfect!!!!
There was some indoor space and some outdoor space. The weather was questionable, so [Clesi's at Bottinelli Place] set up tents for us and had the space lit with cute little lights. It was awesome.
They were so kind and a real joy!!!!"

“Clesi's helped me surprise my wife with an epic birthday party that she calls one of the best times of her life!
It started with a super cool cemetery tour from [Clesi's partner] Spooky Girl that ended with cocktails in the Temple then cake cutting and champagne sabering while overlooking the graveyards at sunset. We had planned to go see live music afterwards, but my wife loved the Temple so much that Clesi's let us turn it into a little night club that we had all to ourselves!
We had SO. MUCH. FUN."
