    Fried green tomatoes
    Shannon w.

    I think the food is good. Can get pricy I thought 8 dollars for 5 green tomatoes was a bit much.

    Plate station - the color of the plate corresponds to what you're paying and how much you're eating.

    I was hankering for some good ol southern fried chicken and found this place. I'm not from the area so I'm easily impressed by southern cooking. The fact that this was a buffet allowed me to try several items. The cost of the buffet was probably what 8 pieces fried chicken at KFC costs and plus you get desert, sides, and more! I wished they had fried green tomatoes though!

    Beef Tips and rice & brown gravy and side plate has black eye peas and baby limas.

    We went for veggies and ended up with beef tips and rice and fried chicken. The black peas and baby limas were so good and I had peach cobbler with vanilla frozen ice cream. I love the train going around on its track our server was very efficient and kept our glasses full and dirty dishes removed quickly.

    Lots of canned veggies
    Heather G.

    I'm tired of the big lies in the commercials. There is nothing fresh or homemade about anything in this crap hole . The food selection is limited. One whole side of the buffet is canned vegetables! Dried up hard fried steak. Funny how each piece is the same size and shape with mystery meat. You can't tell me they aren't processed and frozen. Lies!! Can I report their false advertising?? Pretty crappy service. I'll agree the baked mac Is homemade. That's it. I tried this place 4 times in 4 years. It's always horrible. The customers are regulars that probably never been outside of the city their whole 60-80 year lives. It's a fan food customer base, in this manner. I can't describe how angry this place makes me. I'd be so happy if one iota of their commercials were truthful. I'd go to the place they describe in their ads, but this is not it! Shame on these people.

    The food bar.

    The blue plate special was just the right amount for a lunchtime meal. The food was delicious. Service was great so was the price.

    Breakfast

    We stopped in for breakfast. Love the signage that's dedicated to their core values. Also liked the decor as noted in the photos. Happy I ordered a half order of hash browns since the small platter was filled. The food was good and reasonably priced. Our server was very nice and took good care of us.

    Very casual comfort, exactly what I'd expect from a restaurant with a Bayou namesake…read more The place has an unusual menu limited only to daily specials for lunch, so I initially got the impression that I was at some prison-like boarding school. But once I took my first bite, I was pretty satisfied. I had the country-fried steak, along with mash & gravy, and rice & gravy. It was good, and for under $20, I really can't complain. The place is huge, very spacious with both indoor and water-side outdoor seating.... something I'm not used to seeing in Los Angeles. It almost felt like a studio set at Universal. Definitely a lot of Bayou character! Service staff was young and friendly, without any of the pretentious I'm used to in La. The folks are real, and I appreciate that. Because of the limited menu, I'd advise you call ahead and make sure it's something you like, cuz if it's not, you're SOL. I like it. I'll definitely be back.

    My last review of Ferrucci's was about eight years ago, and while it wasn't a bad experience, it…read morewas just okay--and we hadn't made it back since during our annual trips. After hearing about the changes along Harrison Avenue and that Ferrucci's had undergone a makeover, we decided to give it another try. Wow, talk about redemption! We had a great night with a lovely dining experience, refreshing drinks, and delicious food that delivered one great course after another. The roasted red peppers and prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella ball kicked off the evening and didn't disappoint. We remembered enjoying it years ago, and it still remains a favorite today. Next, we warmed up from the chilly December night air with a cup of potato soup and chicken tortellini. Both were satisfyingly delicious, leaving you scraping the bowl for more. For entrées, my wife ordered the Zuppa di Pesce, a seafood stew with a spicy tomato broth. It was packed with seafood and flavor, with just enough heat to put a little sweat on your brow. I opted for the night's special--the lobster ravioli with sautéed mushrooms--which delivered savory, well-balanced flavors and the kind of satisfaction that comes from knowing you made the right choice. Too full for dessert, we ordered another round of drinks and toasted to second chances done right. Ferrucci's has clearly found its groove, and in a town with limited Italian choices, that matters. Consider this redemption story complete--we'll definitely be back.

    The food was delicious. Will is a fantastic server and was very attentive. The restaurant is clean…read moreand stylish.
