The food was first class; fresh made, great flavors and seasonings, and cooked properly. Classy decor with, white table cloth (without white paper caps), tastefully decorated, and elegant. The deserts were very good, but hard to think you can eat any more after the feeling that you want to pick the plate at the end if the dinner. BUT, the deserts vanish from the table like magic. This is a place fore special occasions and any time you want a great meal.

Carrabba's sprinkler system had been activated before I arrived at 8p. The Silly Rabbit Comedy Club was offering a late show so I was hoping to dine in. I was greeted by an attractive group of staff upon entering who showed me to the bar area. I was happy that the bar area offers booths. The menu has no prices(should've been a red flag.) There's an old saying,"if you have to ask, you probably can't afford it." I'd counter with,"if you have to conceal it, it's probably not worth it." Ding, ding, ding! I tried winging it so I ordered the Petite Filet Mignon, Flemings Potatoes, and a tea. The interior was nice and dark as I like my dining establishments to be. I attempted to view the main dining area but the Christmas decoration(border) was literally blocking the view. I couldn't see without standing. There were only two of us at the bar. It was creeping to 845p now and I asked my waitress to change it "to go." Immediately my order is presented to me. My bill was three times what I expected to pay. All I received was meat and potatoes. I've prepared better tasting steak in a crock pot. I've thought about returning but I won't after reading this is standard for Flemings. Flemings kept every ounce of flavor for themselves. Yes I ate it cold but I don't believe it would've been any better if it was warm.

The service was just okay. We easily waited over an hour for our food, I honestly think it was a bit longer than that. This was the worst thing about the visit as well as the very expensive pricing so I will give it a 3/5 stars. When I come to a steakhouse, I expect the service to be amazing but waiting over an hour was ridiculous. There was also only one other table with people, the restaurant was empty for the most part. I loved my steak. I got the Cajun ribeye steak and as sides I got the lobster Mac and cheese and creamed spinach. The prices were very high. Just my steak was $69. Most of the sides were overpriced and the lobster Mac and cheese for $21 only had three small pieces of lobster. The creamed spinach was good. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice and relaxed and very fancy. The vibe was very intimate and perfect for a celebration.

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.

Says it will be ready at 5:20 . I park at 5:15 in takeout spot No. 2, checking in on line. 2. At 5:40 p.m., I call inside. I am told the cooks are running behind. My order "will be out shortly." 3. At 6 p.m, an hour after I ordered, I walk inside to the takeout area. There is another customer in line who ordered shortly after I did. She has the same problem. She gets her food five minutes later. 6:15 p.m. I am handed what is supposedly my order. Since it was an hour late, I assume it is correct. 6:30 p.m. After driving six miles to my house, my wife discovers there is just one steak dinner in the bag. 6:45 p.m. After driving six miles back to the restaurant and tell the takeout person what happened, she disappears. Five minutres later, she wordlessly hands me two strak dinners. 7 p.m. After driving six miles home, I discover I was given two porterhouse dinners. Both steaks looked like they were cooked with a blowtorch. Awful. Even worse, the lone Renegade steak that was originally in my bag, which was supposed to cooked medium, was cooked way past well done. Had to toss that also. 7:20 p.m. Two hours after I was supposed to receive my order, I ate fritos and dip thinking how spent almost $50 for crappy takeout food and equally as bad incompetent lazy service.
