Chef Charles catered our Wedding in Shreveport Louisiana!! The food and service was Fantastic! Our wedding is the talk of the year. One of the thing everyone always mentioned was how great the food was and asks where can they get some more. The shrimp and crab eggrolls and chicken were crisp to perfection and the mashed potatoes brought the meal to a climax! Chef Charles will be our caterer for all future events. 100% recommended!

If you are looking to experience fine dining in Baton Rouge, I highly recommend this place – truly the experience is in the creation of his dishes.

Do yourself a favor and go check this place out! I had lunch there today with 2 coworkers and it was fabulous! I had the grouper with garden veggies and mashed potatoes. The grouper was cooked and seasoned perfectly! The service was as great as the food; everyone in there was very kind, attentive, and gracious. I’ll be going back soon just for the made-from-scratch banana pudding! Ok maybe not just for the pudding but for everything else, too!

The food was fantastic! Went there for lunch with some coworkers, we ordered the grilled chicken wrap, chef’s burger, and chicken fried steak. All were excellent and filled with flavor! The prices are more than fair and the owner is lovely. Will definitely be going back to give their dinner menu a try.

Got the lunch special; grilled chicken and vegetables, and a caesar salad. Salad was very fresh and croutons were perfect. Chicken was very light, and vegetables (squash, zucchini, mushrooms) were very fresh. For the price, it can’t be beat. Will absolutely be coming back. The wife of the chef took care of all service perfectly. Very upscale atmosphere.

41st anniversary dinner. The actual date is the 13th. However, this is our favorite restaurant and it isn’t open on Monday. It was a delightful meal. For an appetizer, we had a spinach and shrimp dip with stuffed fried ravioli. For her main course, my wife had a 12 ounce New York strip steak with a baked potato and mushrooms. I had a seafood stuffed lobster with garlic mashed potatoes and a salad with a tomato-basi vinaigrette dressing. Dessert was a white chocolate banana bread pudding.

Excellent food quality and options. Menu is not long but the options for dinner are varied and excellent mix of seafood and steaks. The lamb was top quality (locally sourced). Portions are large…and priced way too low for the quality and plate size. We don’t often think a place should charge more or cut portions , but I want this place to survive! A regular stop for us now on our way through from Texas.

Absolutely wonderful food, service and atmosphere!!!! Constantly recommending Chef Charles Bis’treaux to friends, neighbors, family, and other people I meet. My family has dined in (for numerous lunches as well as dinners and special occasions), taken out, and had meals delivered many times. Chef Charles has a way of cooking food that is matched by no one. Even with my dietary restrictions, I have not had a single dish that I did not like. His Brussel Sprouts are “Out of This World”! Even something as simple as a Hamburger Steak or Roasted Salmon is fabulous! My daughter’s two favorites are Pasta St. Charles and Chicken Fried Steak with Asparagus. While my husband’s favorites are the Shrimp and Crab Egg Rolls as well as the Shrimp Tacos. Chef Charles Bis’treaux is my #1 choice for restaurants!!!!!!

I’d give this place SIX STARS if I could. Mouth-watering food, reasonable prices, and excellent service!!! My father had the Chicken Fried Steak, which was DIVINE (and the asparagus was CRISP and FRESH–you could tell it was not some ancient, stored-forever-in-a-can variety).
