Shreveport, LA Cuisine

Shreveport and Bossier City are Sister Cities separated by the Red River. I thought dividing the two towns would help visitors with their dining choice.

Family owned and an amazing local legacy passed down from generation to generation. Each giving their own special touch to the tradition. This is a must when in Shreveport. The view of the lake as you dine, inside or out, brings an ambiance to the me...

Ernest's has always been one of my favorite restaurants. This is definitely a date night or special occasion dining establishment. The soft jazz playing live, dark candle light, ambient lighting will have you sipping on your favorite wine and orderin...

One of the best places to go in Shreveport for a steak. This is also a date night, type, of restaurant. It is a small building so, reservations are always good to have. Dress code here is a little more on the dressy side as well.

Hands down MY favorite hibachi restraunt in Shreveport. I love that they give you a choice of regular seating as well as grill seating. We always choose the grill! At this particular restaurant they serve fried rice without the veggies in it, which I...

Tokyo Japanese Steakhouse is my husband's favorite hibachi restaurant  in town. He loves the veggies in the rice and their egg rolls. I don't normally like egg rolls but, when we go to Tokyo, I always eat one. The wait time is typically a little longer so a call ahead would be necessary for a large party.

Date night, yes please! Walking into this dim restaurant feels intimate. You are seated , napkin placed in lap (napkin color depending on your clothing), and handed a lighted menu. You are met with a wine concierge and he will take care of making sur...

In Louisiana, as long as the tape is on the cup, we do daiquiri! I m not sure if it's just a Louisiana thing or what but, these are the best slushie adult beverages. If they don't have what you like, they will mix something for you.

Counter Culture is a local treasure. Stop here for a healthy snack or sandwich. You can always go the opposite direction and hit them up on dumplings day and get some good down home chicken and dumplings. For dessert yogurts 👏

This is a great East Bank downtown Bossier eatery. The jalapeno crab dip is the absolute best! Don't leave before happy hour or before the band starts. On the weekend you can hear live entertainment while eating and sipping on something relaxing.

From Live music on at The Stage out back, which holds venues to live concerts, comedians, and much more; to steak, burgers and BBQ. The crowd is always a party and great food. Don't miss out on the famous cheesy potatoes, they are my favorite!
