One of the best restaurants in Baton Rouge- this place never disappoints! The food is absolutely amazing...I've literally never had anything I didn't like! Specials are always kicking! Always have great service even when the place is packed! Great place to go for any occasion!
Louisiana Lagniappe Restaurant is one of the best restaurants in town with the most exquisite seafood and a great ambience in Baton Rouge. No matter what occasion to celebrate, Louisiana Lagniappe is the best!! Cheers!!
Great food, high price tag. The fish tacos are amazing! That's what I got so that's all I can speak about. I think it's a bit overpriced, but I must be wrong due to the restaurant's success.
Entrées feature delicious renderings of Louisiana seafood fresh from the bayou and the Gulf of Mexico with sumptuous signature Cajun French style toppings such as fried soft shell crab, hollandaise, and roasted pecans (fish a la Pontchartrain); jumbo lump crabmeat (Louisianne), char-grilled shrimp with chipotle beurre blanc (Chipotle), garlic beurre blanc with fried crawfish, fried artichoke hearts, béarnaise sauce (Cocodrie), etc., etc. There are endless appetizers prepared from the freshest oysters, crabmeat, and shrimp.The steak and poultry offerings are equally appealing.The salads come out with fresh, chilled greens and unique toppings that are mouthwatering. Services is efficient, professional, and timely. Unless you go at opening time, around 5:30 PM, expect an extended wait since the restaurant is always crowded, with a waiting line. And don't go for the decor since the furnishings are quite plain but the food is served on eye-appealing, traditional New Orleans style white tablecloths, silver, and crystal.
Spectacular, a bit pricey but worth it. Service is spot on, house oysters as good as anywhere in New Orleans. The array of fish preparations is creative.
Definitely one of the best in Baton Rouge. Make sure you get there early to avoid the wait...it pays to eat early. Not literally but you get the picture 🤓. The parking lot gets full but you can park in the news channel's lot behind it and walk through an opening. The wait staff is amazing. Our waitress was Ashley. Everything from the bread basket to the sensation salad is simple yet full of flavor. You can't go wrong with an appetizer or entree decision. For dessert, their cookie sundae is a very warm cookie with vanilla ice cream on top. It's plenty to share. This is a BR must!!!
Really good restaurant with amazing food. I generally order an off the menu steak called the filet Louisiana. Highly recommend that steak. No reservations taken so get there early or be prepared to wait.
Great service by the staff and the oysters were phenomenal! Also the corn and crab bisque is worth the trip. Plan to return when I am in the area again
Early weeknight dinner. After eating at the Destin location for some 10 plus years we finally tried the location in our new hometown of Baton Rouge.
Got there early and sat at the bar waiting for the better half. Had a nice bourbon drink and the hostess came over right after my wife came in and said we better be seated due to it filling up fast. It is crowded so me getting there right at open time was key to us stopping in. I do not do hour waits.
Server was friendly, professional and explained the menu well. The food was outstanding and the oyster app was maybe the best one dish so far in our limited Baton Rouge time spent eating out. The fish dishes also were well prepared and tasty along with the sides.
It can get pretty rich so gauge your tolerance for richness and go from there. It was a very good meal.
The inside is not nearly as large as you would think which is why it gets crowded early and stays that way, The Destin location is likely three times this size.
We will certainly return and try some other dishes on the menu but will adhere to our own advice and arrive early.
Recommended heartily.

Oysters Lagniappe. Amazed by these
AWSOME!!!
Best seafood in town! Huge hunks of crab meat in the crabmeat auguraren. Sensation salad is wonderful too. Lagniappe oysters are outstanding!!
The crab and corn bisque was life changing! Huge pieces of crab meat and great flavor. Visited on a Wednesday evening and was surprised to find an hour wait. Be prepared for a bit of a wait.
First time visiting and thought it was fantastic. Yes, many dishes were fried but they were all great. Service was fantastic. Hostesses helped seat me and ensure service in the bar area during busy evening rush and staff was wonderful with the recommendations!
