LeaIV's Cafe is our Favorite Happy Place because they serve Excellent Soul Food that tastes like…read moreMama, Daddy, PawPaw and Grandmama cooked back in the day. This Fabulous Family Restaurant is located right on the border of Keithville and Stonewall, Louisiana. They offer a wide variety of mouthwatering dishes, daily specials, beverages and scrumptious desserts to satisfy every palate. Just check their menu for the hours and offerings. With a warm and inviting atmosphere, this cafe provides a welcoming space for locals and visitors alike. My husband and I learned about them on the Tasty Tuesday news article that was featured on KTBS. When we asked how they got started, the owners Tanesha and Wade Hall responded that they opened their restaurant, LeaIV's Cafe, at the beginning of the summer because they love to cook and realized, as Stonewall residents, that there are very few food options in town. We agreed, for as we told them, just in visiting Shreveport, we noticed limited quality options, other than our cooking the food ourselves. Tanesha also said that it all started at her business, Inner Quality Services, in Stonewall when she and Wade started selling plates out of the building. It became a big enough hit that they decided to move to this current site at 671 U.S. Hwy. 171 Suite M as soon as it became available. For us, Sunday dinner always means family and the sharing of love through a meal cooked straight from the heart. We happen to believe that every day should feel like Sunday, full of prayer, joy and love. So we are excited about this mutual belief that their family has also shared and enjoyed for many years. Everything we have tasted in our visits at LeaIV's has been "spot on" delicious. The perfect seasoning and jovial atmosphere is on point, so warm, inviting and flavorful with Friendliness, Love, Kindness and Soul. We keep coming back whenever we get the chance. Come on down and try LeaIV's Cafe. You will not be disappointed!

I'm visiting Family in stonewall and I'm from Virginia. At Home I can buy oxtails everyday and…read moreusually do. I went to two different places in Bossier, the first didn't have any and said they were too expensive. The place I visited only sold them on Thursday. Due to the distance I gave up the visiting Thursday so I Googled "Oxtails near me". Low and behold I discovered this fine Dining Establishment 1 1/2 miles away. So I called and asked if they had oxtails today and was told "Yes". Upon entering I felt right at home and saw many locals enjoying their meals. Everything looked appealing. I paid the same price here as I do in Virginia. The food was bulging yet truly stuffed to the point of overflowing...HUGE portions and it all tastes good. Large pieces of oxtails too. I was served enough food that will last at least 2-4 days. This is my go to place for all my meals while in Stonewall.

First time my wife and I had eaten here. We'd been to a eye doctor appointment and asked each…read moreother what are you hungry for? She said BBQ and I said beef, thinking steak or burger. It was 1530 (3:30 pm) by now. This was the 4th place the Google Map led us to after three failures. We were seated and served instantly by a young smiling hostess then a waitress. The waitress answered every question we had about the foods on the menu, including the portion sizes (generous). My wife chose the Jalapeño and Jack Cheese Links with baked beans and crispy fried okra. I picked the Sliced Brisket, cole slaw and crispy fried okra. Our appetizer was a fried string onions with a garlic flavored ranch dip. We are picky about our okra, we want it crispy, crunchy and served hot. This was perfect! The atmosphere was open, tables only, several tvs, on (sports), the staff were all inviting and friendly, the waitress was always asking if we needed anything everytime she went by. The restrooms were clean and the children's drawings in the hall cheered the place up. (I especially liked the green pig with the yellow head.) They gave us the military discount, probably offer first responders discount as well. We would highly recommend the Shreveport Bodacious BBQ on Line Ave and will go again!
