Let’s hear them.

Tsunami Sushi(roof top)
Schlitz & Giggles

Both good lunch spots. Haven’t lived there in 7-8 years so I’m sure there have been several additions and spots that have closed.

Not downtown:
Parrain’s - great seafood
Roux 61
Louisiana Laginappe
Mike Anderson’s
Sammy’s Grill

Let’s hear them.

I live in BR but avoid downtown like the plague. That said:

Little Village
Rocca Pizzeria
La Carreta
Bistro Byronz
Jambalaya Shoppe
Christina's

If you want to venture out further into town:

Chimes
Juban's
Thai Kitchen
Roux 61
Walk Ons
Gino's
Red Zeppelin Pizza
TJ Ribs
Burgersmith

Downtown — Tsunami, and that’s about it.

Otherwise, DiGiulio Bros, Louisiana Lagniappe. For the best burgers and shakes I’ve ever had, Fat Cow.

I think Lagniappe is the best place in town.

 

[Palmettodog]

Mansurs on the Boulevard. Good ****.

Parrains is good to.

Schlitz and giggles is garbage. Complete and utter garbage. There’s a Doe’s close to downtown

Tsunami is good for sushi and is a good rooftop view over the mighty Mississippi.
Stroube’s is a pretty good steakhouse downtown. Close to the Watermark Hotel which has a really cool bar and good food itself. If you don’t already have a place to stay, that’s the place.
Juban’s is not too far from downtown and is a classic with great food and reasonable prices. Signature dish is the hallelujah crab!
There’s a Gallatoires and Acme and and other chain types around as well.
Roux 61 is the place for lunch if you are near Park Rowe on Bluebonnet. The grilled oysters Diablo are awesome.

Another vote for Fat Cow - not near downtown. Close to south gates of campus but damn it’s good

Downtown has Stroubes and Jolie pearl oyster.

Best restuarants arent downtown - Juban’s, Mansurs, parrains and bistro Byron’s. Juban’s would be my pick

 

[MaroonCrusader]

Tsunami. The end. Not downtown but go to city pork. Juban’s is pretty good.

A relatively new place: BRQ

You won't go away disappointed or hungry.
