You really never can go wrong with Calandro's. A Baton Rouge staple for decades, this is a great…read moreplace to find all sorts of unique beer and wine, and some amazing deserts. Known for their delicious and diverse king cakes, they have all sorts of treats and special items. If they don't have it, they can usually order it as well. I was searching for a unique beer to bring some friends, and they have one of the largest and most unique selections in the state. The list of beers is growing every week as well. It's almost overwhelming all the different types, but hey, just go back and get another kind later! Their chicken salad is probably the best in town. It has flavor and larger pieces of chicken, so it's not a spread like others in town. Their pimento spread is great for parties as well. They have tons of different cheeses and olives and different Calandros brand goodies. Their produce is always fresh and reliable. They don't tend to cater to special diets, so if you have special dietary needs or restrictions, you may have to go to another store for those. But by nature, you can find items that will work for you. Top all of that with friendly owners, friendly staff, and friendly people all around, and it always makes an enjoyable shopping experience!

If I have any questions, staff is there to help and understands when trying to stay within budget. I've been to several fun tasting events here, discovering new wines and spirits, and tasting some of their great food items. The location is convenient, and the interior is really spacious. I love having multiple locations and really love that they brought their delicious deli foods to BR.

As for the food, it's a creative Indo-Western fusion concept that definitely caught my attention! I was especially excited to try the butter chicken ramen. While the flavors of the butter chicken were rich and well-executed, the ramen was underwhelming, because it just looks like it's Maruchan (instant noodles) making the dish feel a bit mismatched. The sides that came with the naan short rib sandwich aka tater tots has the same seasoning as another side dish (the debris fries), so there wasn't much contrast or variety in flavor.

We were looking for wine and I found the closest liquor store to where we were at. And Mike said…read morebefore we went in that I better get ready to leave if someone gave us shite. I said ok knowing that we can get along with anyone. I walk in and immediately see all of the cheap wine available there so I started taking pictures of it and Mike went looking for the buzz balls that are super tasty like a mild mudslide and he grabbed 4 of them while talking to an old man in the back of the place. So I grab 2 bottles 1 Gallo Cabernet Sauvignon and 1 Gallo Moscato sweet white wine which were $5 bones a piece and we got up to the counter and Mike offered to buy the old man's wine!! And then they loved us! The place was very clean and low shelves across the room!

The spicy vodka sandwich is very, very good, and it is a very large sandwich. You could split one and both people will walk away happy. Service here is fantastic- refills as soon as you ask and a kind staff, even when there's a rush. I will say there is a little bit of a wait, BUT good food should take time, and that is the case here. PS- the Lebanese Tea is fantastic!

Nice little cafe with walk-up counter service, but the menu posted behind the counter is not…read morehelpful. When I asked what the "Smokie Hoagie" was, the lady at the counter didn't know. But after looking around for a moment, she found a more descriptive menu. I suppose if you're a regular, that's not an issue. For a first timer, it's weird. I came here with high hopes for an Italian hoagie ("The Italian"). A good Italian hoagie is hard to find in the heart of po-boy country. The meat and cheese on this version is good, but the sandwich is kind of small and a bit dry. The menu says it includes roasted red peppers, but that was missing from my sandwich. It does appear they have a nice variety of bagels. Overall not bad, but I'm still in search of a good Italian hoagie.

From wine to beer to liquor, they literally had EVERYTHING. I really liked how the store was organized. There is so much so it is overwhelming, but there are employees there to readily help. The store is extremely clean too. I was looking for Veuve, and it took me a second to find, but once I found it, there were so many options to pick from. I went with the classic, of course. When I was checking out, they even had wine gift bags for purchase. I liked this, so I bought one. I hate Siegen lane, so I don't like how the store is located here, but all in all it was a great experience!
