• Seafood • Denham Springs
The truth is, you don't become a Louisiana favorite just by putting the word "authentic" on your sign. When you've served Cajun meals as long as we have, you learn the difference between real food and a bland imitation, and our guests know it too. Grilled, fried or on ice-there's time cooked into every dish and time spent on every home cooked recipe, so that every aroma, every bite, every sip and every gathering is memorable. We've spent more than 80 years creating a recipe for something much greater than a place for a lunch break or night out. It's a place to share (or keep the whole plate to yourself), a place where you always have a seat ready at the table and a place where you're always part of the family.

• Southern • Baton Rouge
Booked 2 times today
Bistro Byronz was born from the simple definition of a true bistro: an unpretentious neighborhood restaurant where friends and families gather day and night to relax, share conversation and enjoy good food and drink at reasonable prices. From that day on, we have prided ourselves in serving deliciously simple, bistro-inspired dishes done the Southern way — comfortable yet special, casual yet elegant, and a bit curious and undefined.A Southern version of the quaint cafes in Paris, with the sophistication and casual flare of New York City bistros, incorporating the flavors, culture and lagniappe of Louisiana was to us the perfect and distinct approach.

What sets Ichiban distinctively apart from other sushi restaurants is flavor. You can actually taste specific individual ingredients in each roll. The flavors combine and complement each other…they create a sensation like few other sushi restaurants have accomplished. It’s more interesting to eat something with distinctive textures and personality than those with limited flavor denotations…relying on heavy sweet sauces.Ichiban means ‘number 1’ in Japanese. Mixing traditional with blazingly contemporary, the food, beverage and dining experience of Ichiban is carefully designed to elevate any lunch or dinner. Serving only the freshest Sashimi, meticulously handcrafted sushi and world class Hibachi. Ichiban defines the ultimate Japanese dining experience.

    I am addicted to your fried catfish, but I tried the big salad you make with the buttermilk dressing. It was wonderful. I can't wait to order that again. I like a lot of things on the menu. Great variety of good things.

    Excellent! Beyond impressed with our first visit to Bonta Del Forno. It has been on my list for a while and I decided to make a reservation for Father's Day. I'm always willing to extend grace on holidays as restaurants tend to be a little busier, but I didn't need to. Our server Macy was absolutely fantastic -- warm, attentive and helpful. Our food was delicious- calamari for our appetizer, Red fish with potatoes (sauce was good, capers would have elevated even better) ,Fettuccini with shrimp and Veal with side of pasta. All dishes were a nice portion, well seasoned and tasty.The complimentary bread was also a perfect addition. Each entree was very affordable. I observed the manager being supportive in helping bring out appetizers and meals to tables around us -- which I always appreciate. We didn't try dessert, because we were stuffed, but will definitely try it again. Only two areas of constructive feedback -- we came specifically for the weekend brunch, but it was not available today. That would have been nice to see on social media or as confirmation when we booked our reservation online. It is very dark -- almost too dark. But those are two small items. We really enjoyed our visit and look forward to returning. Great job!
