New American Restaurants in Calhoun, LA

“Great addition to the Calhoun area!! A lot of places in Calhoun only thrive because of the fact they are close and people don’t feel like driving into West Monroe, looking at you iron cactus. This place is the exception it’s your standard southern fried seafood but done extremely well. I’d put it up against any place in town. They also still serve baked potatoes which for some reason is a rarity nowadays in seafood joints. Great service and plenty of seating. Prices are also very reasonable for seafood. Stop by you won’t be disappointed.“

“For many years in Monroe's Garden District, was one of only a few Mexican restaurants, Ernesto's. In it's heyday, going to Ernesto's was kinda like going to the bar in Cheers, a place where 'everyone knows your name.' Iron Cactus takes the meals/recipes as were offered at Ernesto's and moved over into Western Ouachita parish, there in the heart of Calhoun.The food and the environment causes one familiar with Ernesto's to feel right at home!“
