“Willie’s has been a favorite since they were a little hole in the wall in Industiplex. I was so disappointed Friday to order crawfish and get 3 pounds of tiny crawfish that peeled and tasted like they had been boiled the day before and reheated. Plus when the crawfish were gone there were enough tiny claws to cover the bottom of the tray. Come on guys, you can do better! Fried cheese logs are no longer logs. They have shrunk in size but not price. Really disappointing…new management? Not sure but won’t go back for crawfish, that’s for sure!”

“Mike and I eat or takeout, almost every weekend, from Al Noor. The Owner/Cook and his family are very nice people. I am addicted to the Lobster Masala, especially when he adds shrimp (Seafood Masala) cooked in the delicious mushroom sauce. Mike doesn't eat seafood so he is hooked on their Chicken Tikka Masala, (it was the 1st thing I tried and feel in love with the dish also). I absolutely love this place, it's a clean, small but intimate spot with a convenient location. I would go to Sally's for hair products, get my nails done, eat at Al Noors and go to Walmart. Not always in that order. I never leave reviews but I had to, finally, share this place with you guys. Oh and don't forget the Garlic Buttered Nan!”
“Love it here! Their burgers and salad are the best!”

“My vegetarian son and I came in on an LSU game day. Due to that, there was a limited menu of tacos, none of which were vegetarian. But I asked an employee, Maddie, who turned out to be the manager, if there was anything that could be done. She checked with the kitchen and my son was able to get a fried avocado taco along with a bean and cheese one. She went above and beyond when she could easily said sorry (because the place was packed!!. And we had such a great experience thanks to Maddie”

We normally go on Sunday for brunch (because of babysitter availability) but we were able to go for dinner last night to celebrate our anniversary.

Thank you, David, Kori and everyone else who played a hand in our most recent experience. Y’all are amazing!!”

“I literally just pulled off from this Burger King and had to come do a review before I forgot ! The girl that was taking orders and handing food out was soooo nice , patient , respectfully , polite , in good spirits and so much more I loveeee her attitude I wouldn’t normally get greeted like how she greeted me unless I was at Chick-fil-A or something of that sort. I enjoyed every bit of that experience ! She deserve a raise ! She takes her job serious and she cherish what she doing no matter what people say about Burger King ! It’s what you make it and bk need more employees like that to represent them.i don’t know her name but she told me about the deals that was going on and everything ! She was short , natural hair in a puff to the back with glasses on I like her hair had blonde highlights! Fast food restaurants are so impatient when it comes to taking orders ! I didn’t get that experience today and I love every bit of it. The food was a 10/10 and I got something so simple. Bacon cheeseburger medium onion ring and medium coke ! Everything was fresh down to the coke ! I asked for well done onion rings they gave me exactly everything I asked for ! The burger was fresh neatly assembled cheese was melted nothing was on the paper neatly folded I take pride in my food and I love when employees show dedication in there job ! Everything was a 10/10 today ! Don’t get me wrong I visit this location often and never got this experience before ! Give the whole staff for tonight a raise honestly ! REAL REVIEWS”

So fresh and tasty, accompanied with shrimp, that was also crispy and fried to perfection. My husband had the New Orleans BBQ shrimp, but was unsure of the spicyness of the sauce, so a sample was brought out for him to try before he ordered, he said it was delicious.”

“I don’t know if anyone reads anything from this site but I wanted to post a rave for the Baton Rouge location. My mom was transferred into hospice care on the day I ate at your restaurant. It was a horrible day until the nicest server/waitress I have ever had sat us down. She couldn’t have known what we were going through or how much she brightened our day. She was pregnant, I know that. Otherwise I don’t remember her name. One of those days I guess. She just had this light about her and when she smiled Everything seemed a little better. I think God put her there at that moment. Hopefully she will be there the next time we go. But if not I was posting this to tell her thankyou for being you. And good luck with your pregnancy. You are going to be an awesome mom. You are full of light and love. May God bless you abundantly.”

“A friend referred me to Stone and Cloth last year, when I told her I was looking for a new stone for my breakfast table. My mother and I walked into their shop pre-lockdown and were warmly welcomed by Kelly Kirby. She gave me great suggestions for a replacement stone and a list of the Stone Distributors in town to search for my desired slab. Her suggestion for the marble was spot on and that’s the one we selected for our breakfast table. Since I placed my order during the lockdown, installation was delayed until phase 2 would allow for work to commence. During the waiting period, Kelly worked with me regarding having my existing breakfast table stone retrofitted for one of my bathroom counters. They removed the existing sink and under-mounted a new one to freshen up bathroom. At the same time, we realized the remaining piece of the slab for the breakfast table would fit perfectly in a second bathroom and a new sink under-mounted as well. We are very pleased with the excellent fabrication of all of the stone work and the installers had been polite, thorough and efficient. I highly recommend using Stone and Cloth for all of your building needs.”

“I love that this goes out of its way to make a good vegan pizza -- the dough, the sauce, measuring out the vegan cheese on a scale so you get enough, vegan sausage, tons of veggie options. I highly recommend finishing the cooked pizza with fresh basil and basamic reduction drizzle at the very end -- it really elevates it. They are careful about cross contamination: when there is a vegan order, they change out the gloves to pepare it, and after it bakes, they use a green-handled pizza cutter that is only used for vegan pizzas. They mark your order very clearly as vegan so that it gets special handling. The staff gets an A+ for attentiveness to special diets! Sign up for their text messages, as they regularly send out 2-for-1 deals and % off coupons. Also, if you pay with cash, there's a small cash discount.”

“I asked about the size of oxtails and the response was a bit attitudal but understanding in a sense. Customer service is subpar meaning it depends on their mood. Food is good but service takes away from overall experience. People want what they want to pay for and if they want to pay extra then you should be willing to accept but the fact that they actually want to serve everyone is admirable….even if they only have a handful of customers on some days.”

Going to Doe's is a pleasure that I drive 30 miles to enjoy at the very least once a month and often more frequently. The drinks are top notch. Tonight I had the featured French Onion Soup and it was surpassed only by the French Onion Soup in Paris, France. Overall I would give the entire experience a TEN.”

I got the angus steak with Mac and cheese. The steak had so much flavor and cooked how we liked (medium) Mac and cheese was slightly bland but that’s why there is salt and pepper on the table. Added a little pepper and it was perfect. The service was exceptional. Susan was very polite and made sure we were well served.”

“My first time here at J.Alexander's. So worth the trip from Lafayette. My entire meal has been remarkable. I ordered the red wine blend Parradoxx, which had a slight Pinot Nior flavor to it. I ordered a house salad with Blue Cheese dressing which was rich and full of woodsy flavors. My salad was a big hit with me. Vegetables were crisp and served with beautiful presentation. I ordered the Filet with Berinaise sauce and baked potatoe. It was cooked so perfectly that it was truly a work of art. For dessert I got the chocolate cake. I am not usually a chocolate fan at all but this did not disappoint!! The rich cocoa blended perfectly with the vanilla ice cream. Now for the service... my waiter, Ali, was so good. His knowledge of the menu was very good, but his quiet professionalism was undeniable. He checked all the boxes as to dressings and preparation, but he additionally checked for how and when you wanted everything served. Ali, eyes were constantly scanning to be certain that my meal and needs were being met. Now, I don't know anything about Ali, except that he was young, but he could have been at home in the finest restaurants in Chicago! His attention to detail made my incredible lunch even more spectacular! An incredible meal, prepared exquisitely, with a waiter like Ali! Just absolutely perfect!”

“My husband and I went last night for an early Valentines dinner. We loved the small, yet quaint dining room, the atmosphere was perfect, the playlist for the background music was on point, Zack was our waiter and he was top notch. The food was AMAZING!! It is my new favorite date night restaurant. The new owners are very friendly and they are hands on. 10/10”

“Superb Italian food . We stopped driving to New Orleans for Italian when we found Fratelli’s. Owner is excellent at finding a wine to match your dish and your palate at reasonable prices never stops surprising us with wine we have never experienced at reasonable prices.”

“Brought an out of town guest, and while they do not do omakase on the weekend, Chef was kind enough to do it for us! One of the best meals I’ve ever had in Baton Rouge!! Even better we sat at the sushi bar & could watch as each course come together! 👍👍”

“Beautiful place for Happy Hour!
Tables downstairs plus the bar area. Upstairs has couch areas which are great for visiting comfortably!
The service is excellent, and the food is really really delicious considering this is a bar. It's not a place for dinner. A great place for apps and drinks!”

“My family and I found this place randomly. We were craving crawfish, and we could smell how delicious it was while driving by. We stopped by chance and tried it out. It was absolutely what we were looking for! The sizes varied but were all filled with so much flavor. Great catches and the sides were also delicious. I highly recommend people stop and try these people out!”

“The food was amazing. We enjoyed the Sunday brunch menu which included the French onion soup, fried oyster salad and for entrees we ate the New Orleans Crab Cake Benedict and Short Rib Benedict. The manger was so gracious as to give me a small bottle of champagne to take home since all the desserts were made with chocolate and I am allergic. We will definitely be back for the dinner menu. Fantastic table side service, beautiful ambiance and excellent master chef food.”
Sports Bar • $$
“This place has it all! Great live music, hilarious comedy, and karaoke is a blast. Probably the best place in town to watch LSU games! Not to mention a large selection of beer, whiskey, and vodka compared to other bars in town. I also suggest trying any and all of the burgers! Little to no wait for a drink even on nights when the bar is slammed.”

They even changed out my headlight without making a big deal out of it. Flip is the man! Super helpful, honest, and just all-around great service. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for someone who’s gonna treat you right!!”

“Awesome people and are willing to go the extra mile to make a customer happy. We picked up 15lbs of live crawfish at 12:30 in the afternoon and got home to clean them and prepare for a boil at 430. We noticed a few were dead and called and they let us know to wait and see if they wake up from being on ice. When we went to boil at 3 we noticed even more not moving and potentially dead. We brought them back and they kindly swapped it out for new crawfish. I appreciate them taking the time to show us a crawfish after being on ice and being kind to us and replacing them! Crawfish were amazing in size!”

“I went here for my anniversary last night. We arrived at 8 for an 8:15 reservation. They told us to wait at the bar so we ordered a cocktail. there were dishes where we sat. someone picked up the dishes but did not wipe off the bar! She took our drink orders and did not wipe of the bar that was covered with stick stuff likely from other people's drinks. After she brought out drinks, $14 ea, she set them down and still did not wipe off the bar top. so I took an ice cube from my drink. she had not even given us napkins so I had to reach into her area and get one. I used my ice cube and napkin to clean the counter in front of us! We had to remind the hosts as it seemed they forgot us. We were seated and our server was wonderful. We asked for edamame as an appetizer. and we ordered another drink. none of which were under her control. I feel the bar should have its own serving staff as the servers are way too busy with tables. 30 min later I asked about the edamame. She said it still was not ready. I asked how hard can it be to make edamame. 30 seconds in a microwave. she said she gets attitude when she asks why it isn't ready. we still did not have our second cocktail. probably would have had more if they had been more timely! second one I ordered a double gin and tonic. it has no alcohol it in. My friends got a Grey Goose on the rocks and a mojito. all of us commented that the booze was watered down. Our server took the edamame off our bill. This was our 5th time and we have always enjoyed going there for special occasions. after last night we will not be going back food is great but be prepared for poor service...”

“Don't go too late, they will run out! Family owned & Operated - Life Blood of America! Not saying other spots around Baton Rouge aren't good (Meche's, Mary Lee, Shipley's all good, too); if you are in the area of Cedarcrest and Airline Hwy near Coursey - worth the stop. Best prices, made for those the love thirty food! ❤️ Been north of 100 times over 6 or 7 years, and it's the same, consistent everytime! (Granted, maybe the strawberry could use a touch more filling... what do I know. I'll eat it EVERYDAY, & love it.”

“Been twice. First time was by luck on Friday night of LSU-Ole Miss game weekend when we couldn't find a table for 8-people anywhere else. We sat outside and had great food, great margaritas, great service and a really nice time. Second time we made reservations, just two couples. Sat inside and had same great experience. Hope they are able to make it in the challenging restaurant business. Really nice people with an authentic Mexican restaurnt and good food.”

“Great Hamburgers and PoBoys. We have tried them both and they are outstanding, flavorful and fully dressed to order. The star item for us, when in season, are the crawfish! Beyond doubt, the BEST in the entire Baton Rouge area. They are delicious and precisely cooked and spiced. We drive from Gonzales weekly to get their terrific crawfish. Mike and Jack are friendly hosts and put their customer's satisfaction first.”
