Review Lagniappe Restaurant - Denham Springs

WEIRD IS THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE OUR VISIT Waitress is nice BUT refused to use pen and paper to write anything down and she is all alone waiting on 7 tables WTH?!?! Can u say chicken without a head! The owner /hostess ????? Really have no idea who she is, was loud bouncing off the walls and sitting at customers tables showing pictures on her phone while they politely tried to eat , taking one guys phone while he was leaving and started talking to whoever was on the other end WTH?!?!?!? VERY WEIRD! This is all in the first 20min . And we still only have our drinks. Ok so food has come appetizers-GROSS dinner - ok

The Seafood Platter is freaking PHENOMENAL! Way better than Duke’s or Don’s! Lagniappe is highly recommended from me and my family!

The staff just didn't seem to have it together this day. The fried mushrooms were great. Overall, I was very disappointed for the price and because it was a special occasion.The other food was overcooked. Chef ask how to prepare the tuna, which ended up overcooked, veggies were hard and over seasoned, and the sauce on my hamburger steak was too salty. I will try again in the future and hope for a better outcome.

When we were to be sat down, we were warned that the service would take a while because most of the kitchen staff apparently didn't show up. That wasn't the issue. The two small children with us weren't given kid menus and were originally given adult drinks. We had to ask our waiter to give us cups with lids. We ordered the grilled cheese and it was just a slice of craft cheese on a hamburger bun. Also, the kids food was brought out last. I had sent back my food because the steak I ordered was over cooked and the shrimp was over seasoned. The waitress asked me "What do you want me to do about it?" and I found that rude. She didn't take the food off of the ticket because we didn't straight up ask for the manager, but I think that's something that should be done when food is sent back. I've ate at another one of these restaurants in a different location and I remember not finishing my food because of how dry it was. I was not impressed at all by the quality of Lagniappe at all

Contrary to what I've heard and experienced previously I was very impressed today. I am critical of restaurants as can be seen from other reviews but the food today was great. Delivered in a timely manner, generous portions, and great taste. Service was too notch from the moment we were greeted as we walked in. I was impressed.

Very large portion Seafood Platter, with a great Cajun seasoning. My daughter and I split the platter and an appetizer and had another meal left for take home. Server was nice and efficient and we didn't have to wait very long. Very pleased and as a restaurant manager for many years, it is not the bare minimum that gets a rave review from me!

Fantastic food and enjoyable atmosphere!! My wife and I order the 'Texas ribeye' and substitute the 'potato balls' instead of traditional baked potato. It came out cooked perfect. sizzling on the plate. We always split the meal between us as it is great but a bit much for us to eat individually. The owners and staff at this restaurant were a delight and we will enjoy it again soon now that the flooding has been cleared. The food is fantastic and the quality of service is beyond expectations!!!

We went here as a large family of 15 for Mother's Day. We went there at 3pm and there were just a few diners already there, so seating us was not a problem. We only had one waitress waiting on all of us, but she did a good job. Drinks orders were filled promptly and then the food orders were taken. There was between a 20 to 30 minute wait before the food started coming out. The food was good, but you could tell which food had been plated for a while and which ones were just off the grill. I'm not a fan of going out as a large group for that very reason. I'd return here, but only as a much smaller group.
