When you read the reviews below, most people know what this restaurant is and how it works. My…read moreresponse is less harsh about the service or it's overpriced charcuterie board concept. I have lived in BR for 6 years now. Many departments at LSU take guests there and in that time, Building 5 has done nothing to improve its parking lot. The restaurant sits underneath an overpass and the parking is pothole marked unpaved gravel. This means that there is no room for wheelchairs or accommodations for anyone who is differently-abled to get into the restaurant. The whole restaurant makes no room for handicapped persons. On the occasion I did get food, the food is slightly overpriced. All meats were cooked adequately but the food was lukewarm probably owing to sitting in the kitchen under the heat lamp than being delivered promptly. When I have gone, I regularly have to ask for refills on soda as I am the designated driver often for department functions. Servers pay you no heed if you do not buy alcohol. Because I go here because of academic reasons, I would barely go here myself. I've been here many times and found it wanting. It's an ableist place in its infrastructure. It's fine I'm atmosphere as a cocktail bar but would little recommend it to people I call friend.

Had a fantastic experience at Cecelia Creole Bistro…read more Tried the fried alligator bites and the étouffée, and both were excellent. Great introduction to Creole flavors - everything was well-seasoned and really satisfying. What stood out just as much as the food was the service. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel welcoming from start to finish. The atmosphere inside is also really cool - stylish, comfortable, and full of character. It has that perfect blend of modern and classic Louisiana charm that makes you want to stay a while. Overall, great food, great service, and a great vibe. Would definitely come back.

Went to Cecelia for Restaurant week…read more Been multiple times in the past. Food is ALWAYS good. Never disappointed. We even looked up the chef because of how good it is. The reason for 4 stars is because it can get a little noisy. It's an old building and if there's an event happening upstairs, you will hear all the foot steps. The bathroom wasn't exactly the cleanest either. No complaints on service.

The service was slow, unprofessional, and lacked the attentiveness and care that customers should receive.

A welcoming, respectful, and efficient experience should be a priority, and this visit missed that mark.

The standout for me was the veggie fried rice. It had great flavor, and I'd honestly come back for that alone. The Snake Wrangler drink was also a favorite. The only downside was the hot honey. It was very light on both the wings and the bao bun, so the flavor didn't come through as much as expected. Service was efficient and attentive. It's a nice, quaint spot with a cozy patio and indoor seating. Still a solid happy hour option, and I'd definitely return.

Both were delicious, but I could have used a little more seasoning on the oysters though. I ordered the crab and corn soup and wings to go. That soup was so dang good. I can see having a bowl of it on a cold day. The portion size was great for $7 bucks. The garlic parmesan wings were well seasoned and juicy. I would get those again too. Service was excellent. It's how it should be done everywhere. I will probably visit again when I am back in the area. The food and service were worth it. I didn't take any picture but I will next time.

I've never been here before, but have wanted to stop in. My employees have raved about the food here. We had a 3pm reservation, so we were sat in the bar area.

This may become my new late afternoon chill and trade spot. My best advice is to make a reservation!

It's nestled into a strip mall on Highland Road near its junction with Boyd. This area has ample surface parking. The interior is simple and contemporary, allowing diners to focus on the menu. Indian cuisine can be complex, and there are a lot of choices offered. However, the menu does a good job of explaining the dishes and their ingredients. It's fun to try out different things and learn about new dishes that one might like. I'm trying to break out of the habit of always trying a dish I'm familiar with. In my last visit I ordered Chicken Masala Noodles which is definitely different. Can't say as I have ever had an Indian pasta dish before. The service is both subdued and attentive, which is classy. They will surprise you with their appearance just when they are needed.
