The onion strings are amazing and crispy, The corn nuggets are sweet and crispy, the curly fries are almost like Arby's, and the burger patty was cooked fresh and the ingredients looked and tasted fresh. It's a hidden gem and I'm glad I found it!

The whole staff was on point, our server Emma was fast, knowledgeable, and kept us engaged all evening. I had a Steak Burger, which was one of the best I've ever had. The couple dining with me had the salmon and a rack of ribs, which they said was delicious. Cocktails were straight FIYA. Definitely stop in if you want a great experience on Bluebonnet.“

Again everything was fantastic!! Thank you to Brian, Sadie, Seth & everyone for the wonderful service & evening 🍷🥂😘“

“Even better than the picture. We stopped for lunch and was blown away. Tender and lightly crispy chicken fried steak seasoned perfect. Mashed potatoes and gravy were also good. I thought they said green beans -yeah, that will do. I was excited when I seen they were field peas- the best I've ever had. Field peas are my fave and now mine are the 2nd best I've ever had. 😉 Compliments to all the hands that went to work on this meal. And a big thank you to the friendly staff that got my order together. Y'all killing it at George's.“

“My food was excellent ! I live in the neighborhood and wish I would have explored this place sooner. I came here for restaurant week and had the sensation salad, ribeye, and tres leche. I was no disappointed I spoke to the owners while there and they were sweet. The man even opened the door when I was coming in and asked me how I was doing and engaged in conversation. I was impressed. My server was sweet but not too attentive. I sat there for a while before she came over to ask me if I was okay in which I was not lol 😀. I needed more dressing. They were not busy but she was just not attentive but it's all good. Overall I would be back and I do recommended.“

“Double house salad with blackened chicken… Enough said!“

“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.“

“Highly disappointed. Sat down at a table and waited to be served with no one that seemed willing to take our order. Place wasn't busy and watched the workers just standing around so finally walked out.“

“The total package-food, drinks, atmosphere and amazing staff.“

“What a fun night for our anniversary! Great food and ambience!“

“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.“

“The owner remade my order so that it would match the usual quality.“

“Morgan is absolutely best bartender I’ve ever had .“

“Everything was great! Fry’s and sandwiches so fresh! Clean and super friendly!“

“The lady with the glasses that makes the deserts is an absolute queen I love her. Her deserts are on point every dang time. She is literally mother. Shes so sweet and kind hearted, I wish her nothing but the best. Give that woman a raise !!“

“My family and I love Spectacular Tubers! We go to the Denham Springs location and always receive genuine friendly service and hot food. Generous portions make it a great spot for lunch, dinner, or even that mid-afternoon snack 👍“

“Walked in - sat down for ten minutes watched every bartender walk by me, then Joelle Saw me and I swear to god she saved this whole review. She was so kind and so awesome I was happy to have her as my bartender she got all my drinks so quickly and is just the bomb.com ! It’s was clearly a sign!“

“Brooke is the greatest “Grill Op” I’ve ever seen! I have eaten in every Waffle House in Louisiana, and I’ve eaten in a Waffle House in every State that has a Waffle House. My Waffle House #2317 on George Oneal Road (1 mile from my home) has the friendliest staff of ANY!!!♥️😎👍🏻“

“Unique Cuisine was a hit at my daughter’s rehearsal dinner and wedding. The standard of excellence from the ladies in the office to the chefs and service staff is superior. This company works hard to make its customers happy and it shows in every dish. I am in awe of how they manage to provide large quantities of food with amazing flavors, cooked to perfection, and beautiful to boot. There is no one else I would trust with such an important event in our lives.“
