Jonathan MathewJanuary 10, 2016I had the crawfish tails and étouffée. Amazing, great flavor. The bread was quality and the boudin balls are necessary at this restaurant. If you are willing to wait for awhile, this is a great place.
- Hannah AlkadiSeptember 19, 2017Yummy yummy yummy! I love their chargrilled oysters and crawfish étoufée. The wait is long, though, so go with a group you can really chat with. 🦐
Colin NelsonSeptember 21, 2018LOVE parrains! This is THE ONLY place worth stopping for in Baton Rouge. AMAZING Cajun food, good drinks, and nice patio with TVS.
ℋumorousNovember 29, 2018Grilled Duck Breast topped with Tabasco Pepper Jelly, dirty rice and green beans at Parrain’s Seafood Restaurant, Baton Rouge, LA. #Pärtāke™
Valerie NDecember 21, 2014I never thought I would say this, but the chargrilled oysters were amazing!!!! Don't make the mistake of getting the half dozen and sharing (And this is coming from someone that doesn't like oysters!)
John CassilloOctober 2, 2017Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Expertly prepared seafood with a really nice local craft beer list on top of that.
Shhbay RankfayJuly 24, 2015Had the andouli encrusted drum in cream sauce with shrimp and a half dozen on the shell. Delicious.
Diana ChongJune 24, 2023Seafood is good and fresh, but wait for a table in the restaurant vs being seated in the bar. It was too hot and a bit grimy. Also, don’t order milk for your kids. You barely get 1/3 a cup for $2.- Jennifer EvansFebruary 6, 2015Everything here is good. Loved the gumbo, boudain balls and oysters on the half shell.
Jan FreemanApril 3, 2015Soooooooo good. Best crab fingers. Great menu. Great service. Great atmosphere.
Ken BosmaFebruary 2, 2016Tuesdays have oysters at half price. Gumbo was good - loaded with seafood. Also excellent sweet potato fries.
Randy TateDecember 9, 2015My favorite place in Baton Rouge. The sampler is good for Cajun food newbies. The chocolate deserts are unreal.- Chris PolloneNovember 20, 2013Bartenders are friendly & knowledgeable about the local area. Can't go wrong with Chargrilled oysters, gumbo & a po'boy.
Gloria SandersonJanuary 24, 2017Not terribly hungry? The bowl of gumbo and salad is perfect. Try the house "Tabasco Pepper Jelly Vinaigrette".
On Sundays from 11-2, brunch on the patio should not missed. Get a double mimosa and order the Eggs Sardou.
Thera HillisMarch 12, 2012Awesome Seafood restaurant. The bacon/cheddar/ranch salad dressing is the bomb! I had the Pontchartrain. It was delicious!
GeorgeMarch 16, 2013Ok, great food but employees have to start using hand sanitizer. A lot of nose wiping and hair grabbing and no washing hands - I'm just saying
Jeff BaconDecember 21, 2012Try the Char Grilled Oysters - Very good oysters. Bread was top notch too!! Use it for "sopping"!!
ArtJonakApril 4, 2012Crawdaddys. Mudbugs. Crawfish. Char-grilled oysters. Blackened alligator appetizer time! Oh, Crab & corn bisque too. :)
Alyce GuerraFebruary 3, 2014Awesome food definitely worth going to would reccomend this place to everybody
D.W. WilliamsMay 15, 2011Always great food. The hardest part is deciding on what to eat. Can be busy though so come early during special events/holidays.- Kevin GrahamDecember 13, 2019Parking tough but lots of empty tables. Great food try the crab and crawfish augratin
Rick BrownMay 20, 2013If you miss this restaurant you are an idiot it is completely awesome the best in Baton Rouge
35 cent oysters on Tuesdays. Also loving the $1 Rolling Rock draft anytime.- Susan SheaNovember 5, 2010I really enjoy lunch here, any chance I get. The Artichoke Shrimp soup and the house salad is my favorite thing to order.
FitCitiesJanuary 27, 2012Oysters on the half shell can be healthy and delicious! Order them while in season.
Seth CourrégéSeptember 12, 2011I'm not an oyster fan, but even I can't get enough of the chargrilled oysters. Believe me, they're awesome!
Kara PhillipsDecember 29, 2011Make sure you get the hushpuppies! The Maurepas fish is huge and delicious.
- $1 Rolling Rock? ...We used to pay extra for it back in the day!
