I love how it clearly honors our veterans by representing all the military branches on the windows. It was busy when we got there, but our waitress was very attentive and we didn't feel rushed to get up and leave when we finished eating. The food was delicious. The bacon was crispy, the eggs were perfectly runny, and the biscuit was light and fluffy. The omelette was really good too. We will definitely be back soon!

We started with dessert and were glad, becuase we would have been too full for it otherwise. Service was perfect. Karen was the best, ABSOLUTE BEST! She was friendly, professional, and could read our minds. She also didn't make fun of my partner for wanting A-1 on his CFS sammich. Atmosphere is great for everyone. Prices were lower than most. And parking was easy to find. We go to Shreveport every year and cannot believe we'd not come here sooner. We will not make that mistake again.

En route to Florida from Texas and after several road delays found ourselves in Shreveport at…read morelunchtime. A quick look at Yelp showed Strawn's Eat Shop listed at number one in diners locally. The inside is a mix of old timey and funky with lots of creative murals painted on the walls. We quickly received our drinks and ordered. Our waitress was outstanding but I didn't get her name. Our food was soon there and we dug in. My chicken fried steak was good but the mashed potatoes and cornbread were the stars. I'm not a big fan of salad or green beans but they were pretty good for vegetation. My wife enjoyed her catfish basket. She prefers cornmeal on catfish over flour breading and was pleased with the crispy cornmeal and the generous portion. Now for the main event. Pie! Strawn's is known for their strawberry pie and for good reason. It was the best strawberry pie that I have ever eaten. The whipped cream topping was transcendent and paired perfectly with the strawberries. My photo does not do this pie justice. My wife went with coconut pie and while it was very good the strawberry was the winner. Looking forward to returning to Straw's Eat Shop in the future.

You just go in and you can choose where you want to sit! The waitress and waiters are always so kind and have that southern hospitality. It's basically one big room with tables and booths so it may get loud from other people if it's busy. Their menu also has a good variety on breakfast and lunch.

It looks like it may have once been a garage, but it has been transformed into a warm, lively, and welcoming gathering space filled with great music, laughter, and Southern charm. There were friendly dogs relaxing outside, little kids dancing around, and a staff that made everyone feel welcome the moment they walked in. I was only in Shreveport for a short work trip, but the hospitality here really touched me. And the jambalaya? Absolutely delicious. Comfort food with soul. Shreveport has some hidden gems, and I think I found one at Marilynn's.

Took my Midwest husband here while we were in town for fights. And he got to eat REAL grits for the first time. He ordered Chicken and Waffles, and I just ordered side of grits with Cajun gravy and soft scrambled eggs. Eggs were not soft scrambled, but somehow that is always a big ask. That did not even matter though!!! Jazz was our server and she was amazing, the food was so damn good!!! The best chicken and waffles my husband has ever had, and grits that would put my Granny's to shame. Wish I would have taken pics first... But we devoured the plates! I normally eat like three bites from each thing we order, I was fighting my husband for the food until there was nothing left on any plate. If you are in Bossier/Shreveport area come here!!!!!! This is my new staple when here!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were able to check in and sit in our car but It was about an hour wait for a party of two we ended up getting a sampler of breakfast options, which turned out to be really good.

It just came across really dry, not really loaded with flavor and the worst thing about the entire experience for me was plastic cutlery. The food is too rich or dense for Thin cheap cutlery either
