    Inside dining area

    To go to Drusilla Seafood Restaurant is to take a trip back in time. I love this place most for it's ambiance. It's a Baton Rouge classic. The way the main seating area is designed makes you feel like you're sitting outside on a patio at night. What decade is it? Doesn't matter, because the hush puppies are still delicious and the food very good. My husband ordered a seafood platter and I had the Fish Louisiana. *chefs kiss!*

    Redfish entree

    4/9/24 lunch with customers. Not my first visit here, kinda our go to for lunch when I'm in Baton Rouge. This place is a staple, a must visit. I enjoyed the Redfish entree and I gotta say, it was amazing. Cooked perfectly with a bit of crab meat on top. The potatoes were just enough to fill me up. Highly recommend this spot with small or large groups.

    My experience last night. Valentines Day weekend, so I called first. When I showed up the table was ready, but my boyfriend was in the car on the phone with my grandma as my grandfather is in hospice so I went in & sat alone just to hold our table. It's been a rough week, wanted to get out. As I sat the waiter looked very worried considering I was just sitting there with tears in my eyes. I ordered a wine and never drank it. 15 minutes later, my boyfriend walks in and at this time he asks me am I ok while receiving the call that my grandfather had passed away so he rushed out. Me in shock I just sat there. Then it hit me to leave out of the restaurant because I wanted to scream. I didn't even pay for the wine cause I was so startled that I told the host that my boyfriend would be back to pay. I'm not sure how that went. In the mean time he took me for a ride and I cried and things calmed down and he talked me into going back cause honestly I been so stressed that I needed the outing. Upon return, the hostess wanted to sit us somewhere else but we requested the same table. She said sure and sat us there. It took 8 minutes for someone to greet us the second time. As we look around it seems they were having a discussion about who would help us and as I looked up, I see the first waiter visibly not wanting to be our waiter. Eventually they send two girls, one was training. That's the only reason that this review gets stars. She was a breath of fresh air and I'm upset cause I don't remember her name. She was tall, light skinned, pretty dark hair and an amazing smile. She was funny, dedicated, and she even messed up but kept great spirits. As we wait on food and drinks the staff of like 7 were huddled in a circle talking and looking at my boyfriend and I. They didn't care as I stared because I was genuinely confused until I heard one of the waiters telling another waiter that my boyfriend and I had an argument and he probably hits me. Which is absolutely not true. If there was concern, someone could've asked me. No one said a thing to me. They didn't ask if I was ok, or if we needed anything cause obviously you guys seen something was happening but instead of asking an assumption was made. All night I watched them point fingers, laugh, and speak amongst themselves about what they thought was happening. It was embarrassing, it was disrespectful, and customer service was at its worst. I even attempted to ask our waiter what was going on and she was really nice and advised me that I shouldn't worry, and she told me I was beautiful. The night went on, food was good, drinks were better and I began to lighten up. As we were leaving out of the main entrance, a manager was at the door and I happened to be in front of my boyfriend and he was holding the Togo box. As I approached the door, the manager looked in my face and shuffled out my way like I was a problem. He didn't say thank you, have a nice night, he didn't open and hold the door. He too, I seen one of the girls go and talk to so just maybe he made his own assumptions as well. And as I write this in tears, they were totally wrong about me. I lost the man who raised me when I didn't have parents. He was my life, he did everything for me. It was the most upsetting day of my life. I've never been in public and found out a love one had died. It was strange, it was deep, it was an experience that we didn't understand how to handle. And on top of that, I was watched and laughed at half of my dinner. Which is the reason that I didn't want to return but we had agreed we wanted to try you guys so we returned anyways and that is not the second welcome I was expecting. Everyone one was nonchalant and distant as if we were problem makers in the restaurant. I said all that to say, that it pays to be kind. You never know what a person is dealing with. It's also not good to make assumptions. As much as I liked the food and drinks I don't know if I'll be back. We didn't deserve that and waiters need to be taught to gather in private, not in the dining room, and to also keep it professional.

    Drusilla Seafood is an old mainstay of Baton Rouge fried seafood. Can't explain why, but felt like I was back in the 1980's when we were there. They start one off with complimentary hush puppies that they generously replace during the meal. Our waiter was awesome. The sensation salad has their signature dressing which is loaded with garlic and cheese. It's one of those tastes that's good, but lingers. The crab claws were exactly what one would expect - so, not disappointed. The flounder with crabmeat was good, not remarkable. This isn't a bad place or a great place. Better for lunch than a fancy dinner.

    Seafood feast.

My recent visit was a Saturday afternoon---before we went, we called to make sure they had boiled crawfish available---the staff (person who answered the phone) told us yes and told us price per pound so no secrecy from them. When I arrived I was 12th in line but it was still only a 10 minute visit---at the counter they had 3 people---1 solely to take orders and fill orders, another who rang you up and the other helped the two described above. They had boiled crawfish and boiled shrimp--the boiled shrimp was sold with or without heads. Additionally they had the customary fixings such as potatoes and corn. All of the orders ahead of me ordered some or all as described---not sure what else they had on Sunday besides this but nothing else was needed. As for the boiled crawfish, I was very impressed with the size of the bugs and the flavor---seasoning was great for me but others may prefer it even hotter. I will return.

    Last night in Baton Rouge and was looking for a place to have a nice meal before a travel day…read moreahead. The reviews looked promising so I thought... why not? When I arrived it was honestly dead inside. Maybe one other customer and I had to ask if they were still open because it was oddly slow. But you want to know what was not dead? Their food! I ordered a glass of wine and the beef tenderloin cooked medium rare. He steak came with fingerling potatoes and veggies. The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly, the veggies had a slight crunch and not overcooked and the fingerling potatoes were the perfect add to that dish. I sat at the bar and had the place to myself but overall really enjoyed my food. Friendly staff and very happy with my experience.

    Nice place with a good sounding menu. Will go back to try other things. Had the truffle oysters…read morewhich were good but basic. The tuna salmon carpaccio was good, little thrown off as it was warm which had me worried. But it was very good and balanced. The rice puffs were addicting. lobster roll was good even Though it was cold style which is not my favorite but the bread was delicious and they filled it nicely. Just need to provide more butter. Their fries were airy and consistent. The only not good part was the tiramisu and the colada drink. The cookie wafers were too much and too dense. All in all will come back.

    Geaux Fish Market…read more 9958 Burbank Dr, Baton Rouge, LA 70810 #tonylameats This was my 1st time pulling up to @Geaux Fish Market and I'm not gonna lie, this concept is Brilliant! You can literally pick your out fish and have them cook it right there. Like how fresher can it get?? I chose the Louisiana Red Snapper since it's one of my favorite fish to eat. I had to go crazy with it: * Fried Seafood Sampler: Fresh-cut US catfish, jumbo shrimp, and Louisiana oysters. That catfish?? It's easily the meatiest I've ever had; crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. * Louisiana Red Snapper this was my "foodie victim" but man, it was super tender, light crisp, just melts when you bite into it. Lowkey, it's one those hole-in-the-wall spots you don't expect to hit like this but it does, on a whole another level. I'll definitely be back.

What I liked the most about going there to pick up my food was the cleanliness and the customer service. I loved loved loved the flavor of the fried red snapper. 10/10. And while I did think the grilled fish was good, it wasn't as seasoned as the fried one. I think the side worth getting is definitely the yellow rice.

Tony's does not disappoint. They have a variety of frozen items as well as a full steam table, steamed /boiled seafood and fresh fish. We went in hungry and left out with 3 bags of stuff. We got hot plates of fish, shrimp, smothered steak, jambalaya and boudin. They should really make a sign that explains the ordering process at the steam table. So many items to choose from and you can't be sure what's an entree versus a side. Options are plentiful and everything was good. I was disappointed that they sold the potatoes corn and turkey necks along with the boiled crawfish and shrimp but no sausage nor boiled eggs. We also left with a package of the best pralines I have had ever! The stuffed pork chops and stuffed whole chicken was a hit at our Memorial Day bbq.
