Diner Reviews
  • "We enjoyed a very good meal here. the ribs are a generous portion and very tender and meaty. great sauce. my husband enjoyed a New York strip. With a bottle of wine it is not cheap but it was very good."

  • "If you are looking for poor service and burnt food please make a reservation asap. This was the worst restaurant that I have been to this year. Please save yourself the trouble and book a table at the Keg or any other place. Do not go to this place."

  • "Celebrating our birthdays on this past week-end my wife and I really enjoyed the time we spent at Baton Rouge! It all felt a little rushed - but the food was good and the service was very congenial. We will go back - many thanks."

  • "Overpriced, absolutely brutal table service, poor cuts of steak not even close to being cooked as requested. Not what it once was. Go to The Keg instead."

  • "Belle ambiance, service hors pair, nourriture appétissante (quoique un peu simple). Trop cher ! Mais bon, pour la St-Valentin ça va. Musiciens sur place, personnel accueillant... On paye pour l'ambiance ! Pour un groupe c'est sympa, sinon à deux c'est romantique."

  • "We were placed in a quiet section where there was 1 other table and next to a window overlooking the Place des Arts. The menu provided us with a great selection of food and the wine list provided us with an excellent bottle. The service at the table was also very professional and it just topped off the experience as one that you could not have planned better. Our request was made over the web and was requested in very few words, "a business dinner, a quiet area if possible.""

  • "We came to eat here before a hockey game. Everyone was great . We had a not so great part when another guest came and asked us not to laugh so loud. We were a group of 6...kinda hard to be silent at dinner. Because of his poor attitude we left and took our business elsewhere."

  • "Parfait pour lunch de groupe sans sortir du Complexe Desjardins en ce froid hiver. Les prix du menu midi sont un peu excessifs cependant mais on est en plein Centre-ville…"

  • "Steak was good bit not the Ahi salad. Ahi was tasteless and salad itself was like a cabbage salad and not very good."

  • "- I ordered the chicken tenders. They were not hot and they were caked in batter. They tasted bland. The dipping sauces were cold. - I asked to replace both side dishes with a side salad and found out when I got the bill I was charged full price for the mean PLUS $6.95 for the salad! I asked the waitress about the charge she was dismissive. - our waitress came to our table mid meal and said she was going on break and another server would take over. This is not professional. You finish your tables THEN take a break. - I have been to Baton Rouge many times before but would not recommend this particular location."

  • "Rib steak was cooked to perfection, just disappointed that the potato tasted like it was pulled out of the fridge and barely reheated. also Santa Fe vegetable topping was soaked right through with dressing, almost like day old salad sitting in the fridge. Chicken itself was great as per usual."

  • "Hello, We had 1.74 hrs for dinner before a show at PDA - Should have had plenty of time to have a drink, eat and be at PDA in time. I arrived a few minutes later than other guests. It took 10 minutes for our waitress to take my drink order and 25 minutes it (Manhattan) to arrive - which was watered down and had to be returned.Nor did it have the appropriate recipe - it looked and tasted like a ginger-ale. The replacement drink came quickly, but only after I had to remind the waitress, again. Excuse-Busy.The delivery of the meals (potato soup and ribs for most) took a long time and not great. . Getting bills very slow and waiting to pay - almost arrive late to the show. I had other good experiences, there, but this time, terrible."

  • "Had reservations for 5:30, and tickets for a show at 7:30. We almost didn't get to eat. Showed up at 5:20 for our reservations and was told it would be a 15-20 minute wait. No problem! I overheard the hostess say the people without reservations would be a wait of 45-60 minutes. Finally being seated at 6:30 we had to rush everything. The waitress was awesome - we ordered ate and paid all in 20 minutes. I don't understand what the point of reservations are for if they don't honor them. Totally unacceptable!"

  • "I ordered the lobster. I was craving lobster for a while and I was going to see the nutcracker. So, out of pure convenience we went to Baton Rouge. When the lobster came to my table, it had an awful fishy smell. I asked for olive oil instead of butter, it took almost 20 minutes of my husband tracking a waiter/waitress down to get the olive oil. I was done my lobster tail at that point. Yes, I still ate the lobster. I was craving it. The keg's lobster was much better. I asked for the bill, and they brought me two bills. Awful place. They are so lucky, they are located under complex desjardins"

  • "A group of us ladies had tickets to see the Nutcracker ballet at the Place des Arts. The Baton Rouge is located directly accross from the PDA making it a very convenient place to meet. They have a great bar ( on this night a Jazz band was playing) and our waiters and waitresses were aware we had a specific show time and ensured that our food and bill came on time."
    Dined on 12/13/2013
  • "Great place to eat, especially if you are going to the theatre just across the street. Service is quick and food is consistently good. My only complaint would be that even with a reservation, we had to wait an extra 15 minutes to be seated."
    Dined on 12/13/2013
  • "I have been to a few Baton Rouge restaurants over the years but this experience was , by far,the best. Our server was attentive but not overly attentive...you know what I mean. I had the bone in fillet mignon cooked to my liking...and the garlic mashed potatoes were delicious. The caesar salad was very, very fresh. Overall, a great experience.!"
    Dined on 12/7/2013
  • "Food is good but the service in the bar section is not the best - waitress is to busy talking with the other waitresses."

  • "I was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was packed due to an evening christmas concert at PdA. There was some minimal waiting while our table was prepared. Our server arrived quickly, taking orders for drinks which arrived within 5 minutes. She then took our meal orders - 3 rib dishes, 1 chicken and a steak salad. Given the restaurant was full to capacity, I was worried about getting out in time to go to the theatre. Food arrived within 15 - 20 minutes. Everyone was satisfied with their meals & a couple expressed surprise at the offerings of the wine list. Our server was excellent and we were out the door without having to rush to the theatre. Would not have happen without reservations."

  • "This is one of my favorite restaurant the food is great ans the staff is awesome they have great personnalities... I find this restaurant very noisy and the music is nerve racking at times.... the service is a little fast, .especially when you want to relax and enjoy the food with your spouse or friends, i've been there at least 15 times and only once the service was slow...."
    Dined on 11/23/2013
  • "Good service, tasty food, excellent location - PDA. Somewhat noisy, could not talk, had to scream over other diners. Generally, very pleasant."

  • "Baton Rouge Porc Ribs are famous. I am never disappointed when ordering this dish. French fries are nice & crispy and they give mayonnaise!"
    Dined on 11/19/2013
  • "By its situation in le complexe Desjardins, Bâton Rouge is full every night by people later planning to go to the theater, a concert, etc. It takes reservation, but expect to wait nevertheless, at least an extra 20 minutes. This can be frustrating when you know you have limited time to eat before heading to your show. Once seated, the service is fast, American-style. There are better "foodie" choices in the neighborhood. This is not a place where you'll discover new flavours or plates. Go for American steak and fries."

  • "Amazing food, service and as well as the ambience! Will definitely go back again!"

  • "If seated near the group tables, expect lots of noise. After we were seated in a booth between the upper large table and three tables for group below, we could hardly hear ourselves talk. We asked and moved to a quiet portion of the restaurant, much to the dismay of our waiter. Otherwise, the food was what we expect at Baton Rouge and the service fairly quick, if not personal. While it appears a person is assigned the table, there is a constant parade of servers attending."

  • "My plate was taken away before I finished my salad. My plate was taken away before I finished my fish and sweet potato fries. I was talking to my friend opposite me and didn`t notice that this happened twice."

  • "Booking was at 6:00 pm for 3 people - they transcribed the number wrong (only 2) so we waited until 6:45 to get a table."

  • "I went to see a show a Theatre Sir Wilfred Pelletier (lPace Des Arts)hand that's how I endd up at Baton Rouge for Dinner. They seemed overwhelmed and understaffed for the amount of people. Perhapes being more prepared for the traffic when there is a show or event just next door! The service was a little long. I got there at 5:20p.m. and managed to leave at 7:15p.m . All in all the food was good."
    Dined on 10/8/2013
  • "Our party of three did have a nice table along the Ste-Catherine Street side, with a view of Place des Arts. This was perfect for the tourist friends I was entertaining. However, the service left a lot to be desired. A minute in our server's view was closer to 15-20 minutes. It would also have been appreciated if the server would have mentioned that our salads came with cheese garlic bread, and avoided our over-ordering another entire plate of cheese garlic bread. But perhaps the server was thinking about the extra 15% tip he would receive from the order. A little openness and transparency would have gone far. The food meets your average chain expectations. Portions were good sized, well presented and a good temperature."

  • "Comme nous étions durant le festival juste pour rire,il a fallu attendre 30minutes pour avoir une table. Nous étions déçu de cette situation car les gens qui sont arrivés en même temps que nous ont élu une table avant nous et sans réservation??? Donc pourquoi réserver??"

  • "I have never been overly fond of Baton Rouge, my last dining experience was not that great, but my husband really likes it so we went there for his birthday and this was a better experience. The waitress was extremely helpful and super nice, hands down, best service I have ever received in a restaurant. The atmosphere was very nice, warm, inviting, it gave a sense of intimacy yet had a nice buzz of conversation in the background. My only iffy thing was the food, the Mississipi Calamari dish was delicious, the baked potato was amazing, the salad was good, however, I did not enjoy the Sirloin Steak. It lacked flavour and did not taste like much. I was very disappointed in it. BR would not be my first choice for a steak dinner."

  • "Booked through open table, no problem with reservation; was seated right away. Waiter acknowledged we did not speak and had no problem serving us en Anglais. Table of 6, ordered a few appetizers, bottles of wine and mains. All came in a timely fashion. Would definitely visit again if in the area for a meal."

  • "We were on time for our reservation, and were seated promptly. And that is where the service stopped being prompt. We were told there were no more water glasses and would have to wait for it. We waited about 25 minutes before we were seen by our waiter once seated, and immediately ordered as we had a show to attend at 730. 2 of us received our beers, the other two had ordered water but alas, could not have any as there were no glasses available. We then received our appetizer, no water. Approx 25 min later we received our food. None of us had coleslaw, which was included. We had ordered sweet potato fries & when we got our food, had regular fries. we were told they no longer offered them (why were they on menu? why didnt server tell us?)"
