As soon as I walked in, the aroma reminded me of my mom’s cooking, which made the experience even more special. I’m on a diet, so I can’t come as often as I’d like, but I’ll definitely visit whenever I can. They’ve gained a loyal customer in me. If you haven’t tried this place yet, it’s absolutely worth a visit.“

“The food was awesome especially the fried green tomatoes. The Shrimp was gigantic. Our server SARA was beyond fabulous“

“Love all the southern comfort food, but grilled pork chops and grits are my favorite!“

“Visitor from out town. Food was really GOOD the Cole slaw had a lasting NEW taste. Make great health snack. The hush puppies has extra ingredients and crispy soft taste. Tried their shrimp and fish. The fish had a light color crisp crust just right. The shrimp had a small amount of crust; next order I would request for just bit more of the tasty crust on shimp. The red beans and rice was so good with nice taste in the juice. Most meals comes will fries; but from healthy next I time would love to switch fries for the unique tasting Cole slaw instead. Food is not greasy but hot, quick. For the outside patio would suggest cleaning the seats and tables and checking seating area for trash. But Marilynn's is worth more visits.“

“Our church had Bistro to Go cater an event with 1400+ box lunches. 3 different options were chosen and they were delicious, fresh, had a beautiful presentation, and were delivered on time with perfect organization. I honestly don’t know how they did it, but they did! They were so good, that a lot of us that stayed late at the event ate one again at dinner. The wraps were delicious, the salad was incredible, it was just perfect. I cannot recommend them enough for catering!“

“In town for a wedding and was craving some good Cajun food. I found Sugar Lou's via google. It was a little difficult to find as it was inside an office building but the effort to find it was so worth it. I love asking restaurants their recommendations and seeing what comes out and Sugar Lou's did not disappoint at all. The catfish Po boy with fries was some of the best catfish I have ever had. The greens also are something I'd make another trip to Shreveport for. The young man (Caleb, I hope I spelled his name right) behind the counter was extremely nice, friendly and extremely proud of his work (as he should be). I really have to say this place is a gem and well worth the trip. Keep up the great work Caleb, just slow down and enjoy it when you can. I promise I will be back.“

“Must say the brother an crew got some moves in the kitchen ,the seafood was excellent“

“The food is good but they always mess up the extra stuff you request and the add-on stuff you ask for and pay for and you get nothing. It’s ridiculous. Can you read a ticket? The people on the phone are unfamiliar with the menu. Ordered tonight. Dissatisfied. Lost money because I didn’t get what I ordered.“

“Bodacious in bossier is awesome! We ordered the sassafras and beef tips and everything was DELISH! Also- Marcus is awesome!!!“

“We had an absolutely amazing experience at the Stonewall Location! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The food was great and fresh! The staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcomed. You can truly tell they care about both their food and their customers. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️l“

“this restaurant lacks professionalism and respect for customers from the manager to the staff. I completed an online order and got 7min home to eat and realized my order was incomplete. I immediately called back and was told the manager was in a meeting at 10:15am. When asked how long was the wait Jada whose name i found out later either planned to hang up on me or put me on hold until i hung up. when i returned back i asked another person Javon if he could get the manager. i was told no one could do a Refund but the manager. Cause at this point i just want my money back. He goes to the back and ask the kitchen manager and they said it will take 4 days because i did it online. ( really but your phone recorder prompts you to order online) So i ask him since it was their error and i had to drive 7 min back to get it resolved what was going to be done about my inconvenience. He said he didn't know. I said can you go ask. While he's leaving I'm asking him his name and the girl at the counter. he says her name is Jada, she's come back around the corner from getting my items and says so you wanted to know my name it Jayda and spelled the last name sacristically. I told her i didn't ask her i already have it. i left my name and number for the desoto manager to call me. it 2pm and no call. I called and was put on hold for 11 minutes and no one ever picked up. Money and time is precious so if a manager doesn't have time to respond to a complaint they are not worth my money. this is a public service announcement. BE WARE. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY NOR TIME.“
