The moment I walked in, the wonderful Cajun smells made me feel right at home. The clerk was friendly and helpful, and I really appreciated the experience.

It's always great to discover another local Denham Springs gem.

I would say as of today, 7-16-2026, this is easily a top 2 BBQ place in Baton Rouge. If you told me…read moreit was the best I wouldn't argue with you. Thus far I have tried the brisket sandwich, pulled pork sandwich, armadillo egg and potato salad. My first two visits the pulled pork and brisket were hot, tender and moist. The potato salad is good but not great in my opinion. I like that you get pickles and pickled onions with your orders. The BBQ sauce is pretty good. The first time I visited they had an asian inspired BBQ sauce which was really good. Their prices are on par or maybe even a little bit more reasonable than other BBQ spots. Plus, it's always easier to pay the price for BBQ when it's actually good and you feel like you got what you paid for.

In a city not known for its BBQ, this place stands out and can compete with the best of them. I've…read morehad the brisket, the sausage and the burnt ends, and they are incredible every time. Service is great, prices are very reasonable for BBQ, and the food is always delicious. And their Asian BBQ sauce is incredible. It's a walk up and order, seat yourself at picnic table style restaurant. Great spot for lunch any day of the week but not necessarily a nighttime vibe if you ask me. Either way, the food here is very tasty, and I plan to be back very soon.

We were greeted warmly by the ladies at the counter and they patiently waited for us to make our selections. I ordered the brisket platter with smoked Gouda Mac and cheese and braised mustard greens. My brother ordered the shrimp and catfish platter with a double order of fried okra. I don't know if it was the time of day or what, but my brisket was dry and tough. I had to use the different sauces to even get it down. The Mac and cheese was very overcooked and the pasta just mushed out. The greens were pretty good, although a little sweeter than I prefer. On the other hand, my brother really enjoyed his fish, shrimp and okra. My experience could have been a fluke.

The meat lover omelet was super filling with very generous portions. The only letdown was the beignet bites, which didn't quite live up to standard, but the savory dishes and famous biscuits make it well worth a visit. Lastly, not enough vegan options.

It was my first time here, the employees were so nice they talked me through my questions when I was ordering and everything I ate was the craziest best version I've ever had. Do not skip the mustard greens 10/10 I want that recipe it was my favorite item. The candied yams 1000/10 so good. The Mac n cheese come on now 10/10. Just everything was so delicious the other stuff I got too but I just had to say something about these items. Cute place, quick, I was sending photos to my husband and my in-laws (who are from the south) and they're all crazy jealous. Best meal!

Pit-N-Peel is an amazing local gem! They combine two things that most everyone likes, seafood and…read moreBBQ. Both of these are great here, and what's more they have a catering business as well. They are conveniently located on Government Street near the Garden District. There's parking out front and in the side. Their seafood options include boiled crawfish is season, and these are very good indeed. I find their fried catfish excellent as is their shrimp. In a recent visit, my friend had them make her a blackened shrimp and blackened alligator plate as her combo and I was jealous! I recently tried their BBQ as I usually get seafood and was very pleasantly surprised. The ribs were really outstanding. While the main courses are always the star of the show, their sides need to be discussed as well. My favorite is probably the cabbage which is sautéd till crisp tender. The beans and rice could be a main course, but are excellent as sides. Cornbread tops off the meal.

The atmosphere was…read morebeautiful, warm, and welcoming, making it the perfect place to relax after a long day at the ballpark. We started with the smoked queso and lump crab cakes, and both were outstanding. The crab cakes were packed with crab, perfectly cooked, and absolutely delicious. I ordered the blackened redfish with the white wine lemon butter sauce, loaded mashed potatoes, and roasted Brussels sprouts. Every single bite was incredible! The redfish was cooked perfectly, the sauce was rich without being too heavy, and I literally cleaned my plate, which almost never happens! We also tried the Catfish Acadian, and it was another fantastic Louisiana dish full of flavor. To top it all off, we finished with the famous carrot cake... and WOW! Huge slice, incredibly moist, and easily big enough to share. BRQ delivered on every level: amazing food, generous portions, great service, and a beautiful atmosphere. If you're visiting Baton Rouge or you're a local looking for an incredible meal, put BRQ at the top of your list. We'll definitely be back!

I love a waitress who's able to recommend items from the menu and she didn't give one bad suggestion. I love her personality just as much as I loved the food. Will most certainly be back in the NEAR future and would recommend this restaurant to new patrons.

When I visited we got the Double Butcher Burger and the Hanz & Franzwich. The burger was good although, a little overcooked. It was not in my top 10 burgers and was too pricey to be served alone with no chips or fries, which is my main complaint with this place. The prices are very high and do not match the flavor or amount of food you get. I also tried their Sweet Potato Casserole (I believe that's what is it called), it was very good. Before I left I bought a pack of their beef hot dogs. That weekend we cooked them over an open fire and they were delicious.
