New American Restaurants near Port Allen, LA

“We luckily ran across this place right before getting on I 10 west heading home on Sunday after thanksgiving. We will go out of way to go next time we go east. Great food and serviceOur waitress patiently helped we 2 seniors choose from the menu and checked back twice to make sure we liked it.“

“Very cool and unique restaurant! They have so many interesting and quite unusual meals & drinks. All the staff is amazing, our server Leigh was a delight and she also shared tips for fine dining in New Orleans. We've had frittata with salad and miso salmon. Don't skip desserts! The chocolate sorbet is rich and savory.“

“the service was amazing as always!! everyone was very attentive and accommodating to our tastebuds. the waffles were amazing with the strawberry syrup and butter was spectacular to pair. the burger was sweet although the bun was a bit dry (it's brioche bun so it shouldn't be?) the crawfish mac and cheese could honestly use a thicker cheese sauce to compliment the crawfish as it was a bit dry (the whole point of a shell mac is to contain sauce) Love the breading situation on the fried chicken tender tho. Love the ambiance, love that they have outdoor sitting and the whole layout of the courtyard.“

“Easily the best salmon I've ever eaten. the server (I can't remember his name but he was a history teacher primarily) was amazing and very engaging with us. he even had no problem going back and forth between the kitchen and our table to ensure my dairy-free girlfriend could still have something delicious. truly a restaurant worth returning to if you are in the area.“

“I 110% recommend BLDG5! Brayden was our server on a busy Friday night & was absolutely excellent! He was great with giving us different suggestions off the menu and made sure we were satisfied with everything! The atmosphere was great & meal was even better. Can’t wait to come back!“

“My server was Mae, she was knowledgeable, upbeat, and was able to help me with recommendations and options. Service was very fast, Mae got me a drink quickly and made sure I had everything I needed when she brought food to my table. Food was much better than I expected, this being my first time here, and it being a theme restaurant. I got the street tacos with chips & salsa; they were very good. A salsa can make or break an experience, and the recipe at Twin Peaks was very well designed.“

“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.“

“We've been to this location more than once since they've moved from their previous location. Everything has been excellent! The service has been great, our waitress Ms. Amya was wonderful & pleasure. No complaints about the food, it has been great! From the duck empanadas to the seafood menu you can't go wrong. Definitely won't be the last time we visit.“

“Ate there for the first time recently. Everything about the place was excellent! Quality food! Quality service! And great atmosphere..lightimg perfect..tables not too close together like some places..very cozy! Oh did i mention the food! Better than u will find at most other high end restaurants! Everything we ordered was exceptional!!“

“This is gotta be one of the best restaurants ive ever been to in my life. The waiter was real nice and layed back. The way we were greeted and seated was nice. The menu selection has various options. I started off with a cup of chicken and sausage gumbo. I also got a steak and it was really good. I like how the waiter brings the knifes in a box and lets the diner select. Everything was professional and great. I would love to come back one day in the future.“

“Love the building! It's an old bank that's been renovated, but still retains the art deco design and feel, including the original murals. The food was great and we really enjoyed our evening before the convenient, short walk to the Manship Theatre.“

“Great food! Clean environment. Run by locals who know how food is supposed to be done! L&R Deli is a hidden gem in the middle of Addis! It has easy access from LA Hwy 1. In the summer the have a snowball stand that has a covered area to rest a bit and cool off with a massive amount of flavored!“

“Will return. Really nice brunch vibe. Outside was really quiet and laid back and inside was lively and loud. Brunch menu was average. Nothing new nor anything that will blow your mind however the food was good. The BBQ shrimp and grits were GREAT! The sauce was different from BBQ shrimp sauce I’ve previously had. The grits were really thick and creamy. The shrimp were small but they were good quality and well seasoned and tasted great independently of the sauce they were in. The potatoes were well seasoned and the portions were above average. The biscuit was $4. You receive two. It was nothing special and did not come with butter, honey, preserves, etc. also ordered unlimited mimosas for $22. Worth the price! However the juice provided with the mimosas tasted the same. It was difficult to distinguish between passion fruit, peach, mango, etc. While my server was really personable he didn’t notice that out table had no utensils and we waited for about 5 minutes before actually getting up and getting our own utensils from staff who was rolling for future patrons. Overall I will attend for again for happy hour/dinner etc.“
