three tacos on a plate
Stacy S.

La Morenita has become a place to cure my craving for good Latin American food. Inside the grocery is a deli area where you can walk thru a hot plate line. Fresh corn tortillas are cranked out by a machine. You can eat in or get your food to go. The grocery portion of the store is full of other goodies like pastries, canned goods, mixes and hot sauces. All are from Latin American cultures. Not everyone working here is a fluent English speaker. However, everyone is friendly and helpful. It should also be noted you can even buy cases of Topo Chico!

I had my first visit here with coworkers and we all 4 had a good experience. The produce looks great but I have not purchased yet. Between my coworker an I we tried about 4 pastries and if u like pudding filling and sweet bread it's for you! All looking and tasting fresh. I enjoyed a taco lunch (pork) with soda for $8 something. Communication for me was a challenge but my coworker who is more direct was able to point to what meat she wanted and did just fine. So I had the pork and others had beef and chicken. All were good and tender with flavor! They have toppings like salsas and tomatoes. No shredded cheeses that I saw. I hear they have queso and so much more that u may not see so I am going to return! Stay tuned!

Plenty of grocery items

So glad I finally stopped here. Fairly large with wide variety and selections. I was impressed with their prices on produce, their meat selection and prices, and unique products hard to find at other places (i.e.: Malta, Horchata, hot sauces, fresh baked sweet breads, etc.) I was excited about their drink selections like Guava Passion juice, toasted coconut juice, etc :) will be back !

Apple soda and nonalcoholic sangria... Both yum!!

Go here for tacos and fresh authentic Mexican food. The market is fun to puruse as well.

I heard about this place and saw some videos on TikTok. We decided to try it. All I can…read moreis.....amazing! This has to be the best burger in Baton Rouge! The fries and pork rinds were fantastic ! The staff is extremely friendly and the service is top notch! I love the idea of eating in the butcher shop! I can't wait to come back and try other menu items and the daily specials!

Iverstine is a great lunch spot in Baton Rouge…read more I am always on the lookout for new lunch spots. We often hit up the safe few and it's hard to get the team to venture out. I saw Iverstines in a YouTube clip and it looked intriguing. Apparently it's intriguing to lots of people because it was packed when we went. Despite the crowd, the wait was brief and the staff was friendly and keeping people moving. On our first visit we got sandwiches. The Cuban was a great choice. It was everything a Cuban should be. I would've liked more mustard but it was the best Cuban I've had in BR. Next trip we did a plate lunch. At the recommendation of a dude in line, I got the Tri tip. Solid choice. The green beans on the side were very good. In addition to the lunches, Iverstine is a full butcher. I will report back when I try some of their pre packed stuff. PS. They sell a hat with a piece of bacon on it that says Thiccccc. If anyone wants to get me that as a Christmas gift, I promise to change my profile photo to me in that hat.
