New American Restaurants in Baton Rouge, LA

“This is only the second restaurant review I have ever done, good or bad. Cocha was one of the very best meals I’ve ever had. Yellow curry with skirt steak was amazing, the wine was wonderful, the tres leches was just right, and even the water just tasted really good. Absolute gem in Baton Rouge.“

“We loved the Hwy 61 stuffed burger and Jamaican wings, loaded fries were yummy too. The Voodoo Punch is sooooo refreshing!“

“We went for good seafood and the best crawfish we heard. When we walk in we has awesome service. Our server Aundria E was the best. She took care of us from drinks and helped explain the menu!! Food was hot and good. Great place and definitely number 1 server!! We will be back!!“

“SoLou has great food and awesome service! Safiya was the best server ever and took time to really talk to us. She made great recommendations and we were super impressed. Overall great experience eating here for the first time while visiting for the weekend!“

“Say with Essen great service“

“I throughly enjoyed my salad for lunch. It was fresh and delicious. I loved the atmosphere and service was timely and friendly. I will be back!!“

“Finally!!! A place where you can get an awesome hamburger that smokes any fast food place, not only in flavor but in price as well.

It’s very hard to find quality and value at the same time.

The burgers are huge, generous portions, and a lot of other awesome dishes as well.

A little off the beaten path, but well worth it.
Skip the drive thru’s and give this place a try. You won’t be disappointed.“

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

“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.“

“Outstanding in all aspects! We got to town a little late & stopped in just for a lite bite & drinks. The oysters, black and blue tips & wine were so wonderful we returned after business the next night to try more. Round 2 included the Feta Whipped Brussels, Creole French dip & Duck + Butter beans. Again everything was fantastic!! Thank you to Brian, Sadie, Seth & everyone for the wonderful service & evening 🍷🥂😘“

“We had such a great time last night celebrating our son's 25th birthday! Our waiter was perfect and the food was delicious. Our crew got a bit rowdy at times and we apparently stayed an hour after closing. I didn't realize this until I got home and googled their hours because it was so quiet in there besides us. But no one said a word about the noise or the overtime. Thank y'all so much for being so accommodating!! It was a special night for us all.“

“Absolutely delicious and big servings!“

“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.“

“Wow! First time ever at J. Alexander’s and hands down the best steak I’ve had. My family and I came in for a pre Valentines Day dinner. We had the NY Strip, Sirloin & fries, Chicken tenders & the Prime Rib with smashed potatoes…so delicious. Server was nice. But the food and presentation was exquisite. We will be back!!

Update: Came back again and had another wonderful experience! Tried the Palermo Chicken this time. It was AMAZING!!! Super sweet server and great tasting steaks and chicken!“

“The chicken and ribs are good, but the corn grits are the 💣“

“We stayed at the hotel a couple of months ago when we dropped off our oldest at school. We decided to grab a late night bite and some drinks before going back to the room and let me tell you it didnt disapoint!!!! The red fish plate was delicious!! The bartender was very friendly and even made me a lavender drink bc I had told him I loved anything lavender. I have been craving the red fish ever since we came back to Dallas and want to go back to just for that specific plate. Everything was good the fish, mashed potatoes the only thing was the asparagus needed a little more seasoning but that was about it. I highly recommend this little place“
