With one of the hottest culinary scenes in the southern U.S., Baton Rouge is where you will find undiscovered gems that uphold traditions or put their own creative twists on the Spanish, French, African, Asian and Native American cultures that create this uniquely American cuisine.
Nestled between the Garden District and Louisiana State University, the Perkins Overpass area is a foodie’s paradise. This spot is bustling with over a dozen restaurants, bars, and eateries, serving up everything from classic seafood and comfort food to sweet treats.
The area is packed with restaurants for every lifestyle and pace, from the swanky lounge at The Colonel’s Club to pizza at local favorite Digiulio Brothers Italian Café.
Enjoy classic Louisiana faire like gumbo, fried seafood and po’boys at Poor Boy Lloyd’s in downtown or the famous “Hallelujah Crab” at Jubans Restaurant, a fine dining staple in Baton Rouge since 1986.
In Baton Rouge, food is more than a meal, it’s a way of life.
Each dish carries the legacy of Southern roots and Cajun-Creole heritage, offering flavors that encourage you to slow down and savor the moment.
