Luzianna Purchase - Crawfish and grits.... - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Reminds me of home! Ordered the roast beef poboy, gumbo, and bread pudding to go, and none of it disappointed! The gumbo was chunky and had a nice kick. They really know the importance of seasoning. Poboy was fully loaded and used the correct poboy bread! The bread pudding is also probably the best I've had in Columbia! Service was quick, and the atmosphere was lively. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend! read more

In town on business and found this spot on Yelp. Great recommendation! Cozy atmosphere. The food was really good. We had the crab dip, seafood gumbo, chicken jambalaya, alligator po boy and picked up a pack of pralines for the trip back home. The service was excellent. The young lady that served us was very friendly and helpful with explaining the menu items. The chef came out to check on us which I thought was really nice. I would definitely recommend read more

I did not intend on leaving a review since my last one was so recent. My mom wanted to come back because she enjoyed her shrimp po'boy that much. This last time they were featuring a lobster po'boy, I ended up ordering a combination po'boy with lobster and shrimp. Long story short, I came to say the lobster was phenomenal. It was fried to perfection and had a great flavor. It's hard to find fried lobster in Columbia, especially fried lobster cooked well. With that being said, I will be returning whenever they feature the lobster. read more

Went here for brunch and it did not disappoint. Every dish was phenomenal and we would get it again every time. Shrimp and grits- the shrimp was seasoned perfectly and the portions were huge Waffles with chicken sausage. I love pearl sugar waffles and adding mascarpone and fruit made it unforgettable Beignets- I could live off these...full stop. I didn't touch the dipping sauces since I felt that they stood on their own, but my wife loved them. Terrific experience with a super friendly and attentive staff. Only suggestion (if this exists already I'm sorry) would be to have pictures of the food especially food items that I'm not completely sure what they look like (ex. Shrimp Remoulade) read more

Enjoyed the Valentine's Day brunch! The Valentine Pancake and bacon menu item was delicious; very moist and cakie (if that's a word). All the serving staff were wonderful, so polite and friendly. We are returning customers and everytime we visit it's a great experience and each meal we've had has been a fantastic. I recently had a pasta dish and it was so good I ordered another one to take home; it was delicious the next day. Visit Luizanna Purchase and enjoy some of the best eating you wiil ever experience.

Delicious! Great flavors and very fresh. We ordered the Mimi-latta (muffuletta sandwich) and the Parish Salad with shrimp. The sandwich was hearty and big enough to share or take half home. The shrimp on the salad was fresh fried and plump. And the most delicious bread pudding was enjoyed afterwards. Service was friendly! You can tell a lot of love went into the decor and the products available for purchase in their shop. Skip the fast food and head here. Highly recommend! read more

The environment/atmosphere was interesting...can't quite put my finger on it, but the food was good. The service was good as well. I ordered the shrimp poboy and the shrimp was so light and crispy. I ordered the side of okra, which I thought was a little pricey ($7), but the sauce it came with made the okra tasty. The slaw was my least favorite and I wish I had gotten the red beans and rice but maybe next time. A real hit for me was the pralines, they melt in your mouth- $8 for 4, but they were well worth it. I really like this spot and the food is definitely worth a visit but...I don't know. read more

Our ROMEO club of 10 went here for our first visit today. Arrived at 11:25 and there were plenty of seats...we took up two tables, everyone placed their order at the counter and seated. We ordered three gumbos(2 deer and 1 chicken gumbo), two Shrimp Po'Boys and 1 Oyster Po'Boy, 1 chicken sandwich, and two Mimi-Lattas (Muffuletta sandwiches). The Muffuletta's were great. Large rounded bun with tons of the usual meat and olive spread. The gumbo was very good...I had a cup to sample it and it was one of the best I've had. It had a very dark roux, excellent taste with the deer and the andouille. I'd order it again. The guys with the Shrimp Po'Boys said they were very good. Great choice on the menu. I would've liked to have seen jambalaya on there menu but apparently they only make it on certain days. Most excellent restaurant. Our ratings amongst the group were (7) 5.0s and (3) 4.5s, giving it a rating average of 4.9! If you like cajun this is the best I've found in Cola area so far. read more

Luzianna Purchase - Muffuletta sandwich (1/2 already eaten). Excellent. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Found this precious cafe and market on yelp while traveling. We were so excited to try the shrimp poboy. Being from south Louisiana we were unsure what to expect. Well Luzianna Purchased did NOT disappoint. Their poboy was so tasty just like home, the shrimp, "dem' waz big n plenty sha!" Owner's from New Orleans and his food is authentic. Wish I had time to shop the market and sample everything. Got me some sweet praline's for the ride. Look forward to heading back that way again. I wanna go early for da beignets (Ben-yay) and stay for some gumbo! read more

My daughter's family, visiting from out of state, wanted to try Luzianna Purchase. The menu looked great, and the reviews were good, so we quickly loaded the van, comiing from about an hour away, thinking that we had plenty of time. On the way, my daughter checked online, discovering that the place closed an hour earlier on Saturdays. That was fine, I thought, as we should have arrived befote 1. The traffic leaving the congested parking lot was something that I had not factored. Weee we ever inclined to try again, I would park farther away and walk! Though we did arrive at 1:05, it took us 10 minutes to park! Is it just me, or is 1:30 an unusually early closing time for lunch?! That's fine. If the owners want to close at 11 or 12, that's their prerogative. Also, knowing an establishment's closing time, it's never been our practice to arrive within half an hour of that time. The staff may be paying for child care. We understand such things. I will say, though, no establishment has ever turned us away....never. We waited for 12 minutes...still aheas of their posted closing time. Finally, we were turned away. If out dismissal had been the least cordial, I wouldn't be writing this. We left, and everyone was a bit stunned. My daughter looks forward to coming home where folks are nice and hospitable....well, at least she experienced that in our ultimate destination. Everyone has bad days, I guess. We have not been back to determine whether that was the case. read more

My family LOVED this place. My friend came in town and found Luzianne Purchase on Yelp. He treated us to Saturday Brunch and we were NOT disappointed! We ordered the Blackened Shrimp & Grits, Hanger Steak & Eggs, Ponchartrain Breakfast, Mimi-Latta, and the PoBeast! EVERYTHING was AMAZING! Every dish, the customer service, the atmosphere. And it's such a beautiful place! Easily a new favorite for us. read more

Fantastic little spot! Sorry I hadn't found it sooner, everyone was pleasant, welcoming, and the food was great! I tried one of their specials, a softshell crab PoBoy, and my friend had the Beast PoBoy! Both were amazing, can't wait to go back and try more items off the menu! read more

Why am I just visiting this restaurant????? I'm not sure if this is a hidden gem or I've just been out of the foodie loop... But let me tell you I wanted to kiss the chef!!!!! Everything we got was mind blowing with exceptional customer service to top it off! The gumbo is truly a warming dish. The body, the depth of flavor the amount of chicken everything was exceptional about the gumbo! So exceptional we brought a quart to take home. The shrimp Poboy was loaded with deliciously, huge fried shrimp literally the best Poboy I have ever had! The muffaletta oh my the muffaletta!!!!! Every thing about this sandwich was mind blowing from the crunch of the bread, the mildly briny olive salad complimented the beautiful delicate meat and cheeses on the sandwich! I literally could not stop eating it! We also got bread pudding to go and it was delicious as well. I'm really excited to have found this restaurant with great food, a beautiful staff with beautiful spirits and great decor and even gifts! I cannot wait to work my way through this menu! I will be back!!! read more

The First Chef Wantabe Award winning sandwich for November!!! Once again my Favorite Oyster PoBoy in Columbia! We got here late on Friday so a couple of weekly specials were sold out. My fault. But, I ordered the fantastic Oyster PoBoy that is over the top. They have a great Chef that looks at the finer details to make an award winning Oyster PoBoy. This is the First Chef Wantabe Award winning Sandwich of the month for November!!! First in a long series of awards, if I can remember and live long enough! My Bride had the butternut ravioli with shrimp for an excellent dish as well. I loved it too. No beignets as they only have them on Saturday !!! read more

First time going. Very cozy restaurant! Everything that came out of the kitchen looked fantastic. Owners were front, center, and very friendly. I hadn't had good crawfish in over a decade and wanted to put the other great reviews of the restaurant to the test; was not disappointed at all! True Louisiana favorites Bulliard's and Crystal hot sauces at each table was the icing on the cake. The pasta salad was mild in flavor, but it tasted very fresh. Wifey got the shrimp po boy and it was great as well. Check this spot out if you need some authentic Louisiana cooking! read more

Luzianna Purchase - Fried Crawfish Po-Boy Sandwich with Pasta Salad. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

The food and services were excellent. This place is a hidden gem. My family especially enjoyed the brunch. I cannot wait to go back.

Food was very good. Busy place but they keep things moving quickly. Nicely decorated and very clean establishment. I will return.

My husband and I stopped by for lunch today. We had the flounder po boy sandwich and jambalaya. Both were delicious. We will definitely be eating there again. So good! read more

The service was very good and the atmosphere of the restaurant is very cool. However, the food was a little lackluster for the price. My daughter got the Canjun turkey po boy and she said it was nothing to rave about. It barely had any Cajun flavor if any flavor at all. I suppose the relish sauce that came with it was supposed to provide the Cajun flavor, however, it was more sour and tangy than spicy in my, my husband's, and my daughter's opinion. Admittedly, the sauce was still good even though it wasn't Cajun. I had the shrimp po boy and it was good however, I do think it was a little overpriced. Overall the meal just seemed overpriced from what it provided. read more

Had the Mediterranean salad with shrimp, excellent. Cashier and server were very friendly. Comfy environment.

Super helpful in planning a small event during graduation weekend. Unfortunately, we had to cancel. No fault of the folks at Luzianna Purchase. read more

Delicious food at a reasonable price. Good creole dishes. Crawfish nice and fresh. Cute little gift area too.

Po Boys are 5-star, with crawdads, shrimp, and oysters! Service has sandwiches and coffee out in 5 min.

Great brunch on Saturday! Super friendly staff and tasty food. We will be back!! I want to try some of the sandwiches on the lunch menu.

Don't think. Just do. Shrimp and oyster poboy. Fruit salad as a side. Side salad. And laissez bon temps rouler Consistency is key and they are on point. They have my repeat business 100% read more

Great food great service wish they were open later, however I detest paper and/or products

New to the state and area. My partners job is right down the street, and thank God. LP is our new Friday tradition. On Friday's it's his half day in the office, and he brings home Luzianna Purchase. So far we've tried the Chicken Po'Boy, Shrimp Po'Boy, and the Moufeltta salad and the Bison chili. Don't ask me what our favorite has been so far. It's all delicious! Quality and servings are perfect. Staff is friendly as could be, and attentive. Cleanliness, also amazing. The restaurants dining set up is nice as there is seating for every one. A quaint little lounge, two family-size dining tables and the flip side is bar-top dining tables. Our first time in, they were slammed with charcuterie board orders, and we were sold on the spot... not by the staff but by another devoted patron! We've now got one ordered for Thanksgiving. Can't say enough great things about this place. Happy to have found. read more

Very good place. We enjoyed everything we got. We got the po boy beast, where ya at, gumbo, and bread pudding. It was amazing and if we weren't passing through then definitely would come back for sure. It is a must try if you're in the area. read more

We had been meaning to try this place out since seeing it on Columbia Eats but just finally got there...as others have stated this is a hidden gem so pay attention to your gps directions or just call them cause they are incredibly friendly & the customer service is Truly Stellar...the Po Boy Named The Beast is just that & it was a Great share for 2 people! The owners Mary Katherine & Thomas are incredibly Hands-on and personable..had a 15 minute conversation with Mary Katherine in which she entertained our suggestions like a Pro and helped us make our take-out dessert decisions with real finesse..This is a Great Place that we will definitely return to again and again. read more

Food for an evening party was simply divine!! Beef tenderloin was moist and flavorful, mini crab cakes were some of best I have eaten- ever!, and baked Brie was crowd favorite!
