  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
The only place to get true Creole food is in Louisiana, or at least in someone from Louisiana’s kitchen. Come reste un peu (stay awhile) to downtown Baton Rouge and visit Chef Mark Reilly's Creole kitchen.

    The appetizers we really well portioned. (Andouille eggs rolls and the Broccoli). The entrees were braised ribs and the other pork tenderloin. The ribs were amazing. The tenderloin was slightly over, but seasoned well. No bad choices on the menu. We will come back again when the opportunity presents itself

    It is always nice to be professionally and kindly welcomed and greeted at the door upon arrival and courteously taken to your table. Then have such awesome wait staff and a truly superb bartender. Not to mention a nice visit by the manager Ms. Sarah is always complimentary. And, the food is ALWAYS so very delicious. Can't wait to go back again very soon.

    10/10…the food and drinks were so good. I usually have left over but did not have any! Very dim lit and a nice romantic vibe. My husband and I will be back!
