Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar
Best spot in BR for Korean corn dogs, Boboa tea, and milktea.
Momo tea
Craving delicious chicken wings? Make sure you get the VJ fries with your wings; they won’t disappoint. Local business with the Louisiana flare. Many locations throughout Baton Rouge and surrounding areas.
Empire Wingz: Home
Not your typical snowball stand. You must step out your comfort zone and try one of the specials. This is a perfect treat when craving something cool and sweet to eat.
Sno-Balls Plus
If you are looking for a brunch spot with some jazz, this is the spot. Definitely good food and a great vibe. They are a great dinner spot as well but my favorite is the brunch.
Jubans | Join Us Today
Definitely Asian with a flare…. Everything on the menu is delicious. I usually get a little spicy chilli oil on the side because I like the heat. My favorite bao bun would be the soft shell crab. Drinks are also really good. The menu is not too p...

Quality time spot for the mature. Usually have a live band performance on Friday evenings. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is fun and flirty. The bar creates the best drinks and definitely gives close to NO vibes if you cannot get to New ...
Bin 77 Bistro & Sidebar
New Orleans Crave Spots
Great treat for the kids and adults especially when it’s hot. Don’t forget to stuff yours with cream and/or add condense milk. Always the locals favorite.
Pandora's Snowballs
Call and make reservations. Great vibes, great food, and drinks. If in NOLA, this is the perfect spot to unwind.
Pêche Seafood Grill
Perfect breakfast spot for the morning after. Bottomless mimosas with tons of selections of breakfast to choose from. They also make fresh juice. Love this vibe, food, and service. Usually a wait to get in but so worth it.
Bearcat Cafe
Definitely the spot to go with friends or when exploring a night in the town with that special someone. Fun vibe with delicious food and drinks. Rated:10/10 so make reservations
Meril
If you desire a private chef experience, this is your spot. This is not the spot to order chicken as I honest don’t think that is on the menu. Chef Nina is James Beard award winning chef that pours her heart and soul into creating dishes that capti...
Compère Lapin
If you have a little money to splurge, this is my recommendation. The menu has an array of seafood choices and don’t skip out on dessert. The atmosphere is very romantic and it is in centralized location close to the heart of NO. Definitely chef’s...
GW Fins - Premier Seafood Restaurant New Orleans
This spot is one of my original favorites. Here you will find an array of unique hummus choices and fresh pita. Very delicious and very fulfilling. Always a true NO vibe. Definitely a spot to go with friends as they offer shareables.
Shaya
True southern soul filled with flavor. Fun vibes and good food and drinks. One of many restaurants owned by this chef. This one embodies all the culture that many have loved when traveling to NO.
Morrow's
Alexandria Food Spots
If you are ever passing through Alexandria, this restaurant lives up to the Louisiana charm. They offer the typical American cuisine with some seafood options. Food is delicious and friendly environment. Don’t forget desert as it will not disappoi...
Spirits Food & Friends
Crawfish is definitely not hard to find in Louisiana but not all are created equal. This spot won’t disappoint as they offer 3 spice levels and are packed with flavor. Not a place to sit and enjoy; drive up and go. Also competitively priced.

Lafayette Food Stops
The best boudin and smoked sausage!!!! They have a few locations to enjoy between Opelousas and Scott. Be prepared to wait in a little line because they are always busy. Rightfully so because EVERYTHING is good. Some of my favorites are the pepp...
