I ordered to go using a 225best eats voucher for my boyfriend and I. The food was ready within 15 minutes and the pick up experience was fast. We got the 6 piece breadsticks with cheese and these were very good. I like extra cheese and these had a large amount which was perfect for me. My bf got the spaghetti and 1 meatball and I got the chicken Parmesan and a side salad. The side house salad was really good and was dressed with olives cheese and tomatoes. The chicken parm breading was overcooked and hard. And my bf said the meatball was ok. If I were to go back, I'd probably try something else for the main dishes but I did like the appetizer and side.

Monjunis is one of my favorite classic baton rouge spots. The atmosphere is so perfect. The food is always delicious and the service has always been to notch.
Fantastic spot and in BR. Very romantic atmosphere and staff is wonderful. The sausage poboy was excellent and the fries are better than most places. Great oldies romantic music is playing and Id bring a date to this spot for sure.

Love the atmosphere as much as I love the food and that's a lot!
I have eaten at both the Monjunis in Shreveport, but I never knew this one existed until a friend suggested it for lunch. This one is just as good as the originals. Today I had the Shrimp Toast appetizer and it was fantastic. Followed that up with a Chicken Parm po-boy that was also very nicely done. My friend is a big fan of the Meatball po-boy. Neither of us could finish it all after eating the appetizer so we both took leftovers home. The experience was very nice overall. Our waiter was friendly and never let our drinks get empty. The restaurant was quiet and calm. For atmosphere music they were playing slow Italian love songs (violins, accordion, think Godfather or Lady & the Tramp) which is fun. Ate good food. Had a good time. Glad to know this one is here. Now I don't have to drive to the other end of the state to get Monjunis!

Customer service was lacking all around. We asked to not be seated in the middle & although there were empty seats on the side the hostess still sat us in the middle. Constantly being seat bumped by people walking back n forth by, had a high chair lifted over my head. The waiter seemed very young and inexperienced. Didn't check on us had to ask multiple times for stuff even the check. Also he didn't know anything- he told us a large margarita was a 32 oz when in actuality it's a 16oz cup- major difference. He would disappear a lot-he just seemed lost. The Italian margarita is good and strong- highly recommend. The appetizers were great! Fried ravioli and bread sticks were delicious along with the complimentary bread. So we were really surprised at how bad the s spaghetti and meatballs tasted. They automatically put Parmesan cheese without asking, the sauce is too sweet. The biggest issue is the meatballs. You pay extra for it and it's finally ground meat mash together no type of seasoning and the texture was like catnip. It literally reminded me of a can of SpaghettiOs. For the price point, I was expecting better. First time there and I would probably only go back for a lunch

Came here for Valentine’s Day and got the shrimp, crab and lobster Cannelloni and it was so good! The baked cheese ravioli was also 20/10

The food we had was outstanding. Very good price and portions, too! We were greeted right away and immediately sat down. The server was promt and took very good care of us. We ordered tiramisu to go and had it for breakfast the next day and it was delicious.
