Great food and large portions. I usually call in and pick up my order but great place to dine in.

Fantastic BBQ! We've tried multiple things there and love it all. Definitely get the special sour cream based potato salad. The service is always great. We loved the memorabilia on the wall - a wonderful step back in time. read more

I have yet to be disappointed, everything always tastes so good! I will always stop by when I'm in town!

Excellent meal every visit! It's worth the ride from Sulphur. Friendly, helpful staff, and great service.

Jeanne's Bourbon Street BBQ 915 Sampson St Westlake, LA 70669 December 8, 2022 Thursday - 6:15 PM for dinner 8 Adults Atmosphere - 5 stars Food - 4 stars Service - 5 stars Background - This BBQ location is between work and the hotel, someone in the group spotted it and decided this was the place for dinner tonight. Atmosphere - The walls are covered with items you might find in a museum. The place has a barn or outdoors woodsy feel about the place. We did have to push two tables together but we were a party of 8 what do you except. Food Drink - Crawford Bock. Bock beers are popular in the region, and I try to go with local beers. Dinner - I had the brisket dinner with their famous green beans and mac & cheese. Most of the table ordered those two sides. The table agreed with my thoughts that the mac & cheese was the better of the two. A very loose cheese but held to the noodles well. The brisket was average, they did not ask when end you want. I probably got the fatty end what I like but these slices had an excessive amount, a little trimming could have helped. The knife cuts could have been better too, the thickness of each slice were no even close to each other. There was a little cup of "S" bbq sauce. I will assume the "S" written on the lid was for spicy as it had a little kick. It was great with the brisket. Service - Dealing with a group eight people is never fun. She handled it like a champ. Super friendly, and very informative. Future - Perhaps based on the ease of the location. The bread pudding is calling my name. Our table ordered the last two pieces, and I was not one of those people. Sad face emoji. read more

Yechh! Ribs were dried out slabs with no sauce cooked in. Gave me a little cup of sauce to pour on like ketchup. Pulled Pork had zero flavor. But did have another little cup of ketchup to pour on it. Baked beans were pretty good. Must have been Bush's...potato salad was better than expected. Good brewed ice tea Going to stop and get a TV dinner for supper I guess. read more

Entering Jeanne's, you feel the western vibe immediately. The walls are decorated with old Winchester calendars, saws, Winchester rifles, flags, art and fishing reels. Very cool! Jeanne's is built like a warehouse and have two huge windows where the kitchen aka food truck is connected. Dining in, there are servers who cater to you or you can walk straight up to the windows for TOGO. I've had the brisket and rib dinner with coleslaw and green beans. The portions are HUGE! The ribs were tender but still held together, not the fall apart type. It was seasoned well and you can definitely taste the smoke! The brisket was moist, Smokey, and flavorful. No need for bbq sauce for any of the meats. I will definitely come back when I am in Lake a Charles! read more

I like the food. It's pretty decent bbq. But damn, one server for 15 tables and the bar. This is the third time it's taken 30 min to just get a drink and another 30 to get food. I'm done with this place. read more

Great food and service! Their brisket is soo good! Also, love the nachos! Rice dressing and mashed potatoes with gravy is delish but they only serve that on certain days. read more

I try and eat here when I'm in the Lake Charles area working, which is quite often. I've probably eaten here at least two dozen times and almost always I am very pleased and never overly disappointed with the food. I usually have lunch or an early supper and eat the daily specials more times than not. I have seen some of the poor reviews but barbecue is very much a personal preference type of food and I believe that there is no way to please everyone. That being said I enjoy their style of cooking and the ribs have been some of the best I have ever had ever time I've had them. The service is good and very professional in a homey sort of way. Everyone has always been nice and friendly and fast to boot. The ambiance is good for barbecue place and I enjoy looking at the Winchester collection. read more

Ordered a variety and loved everything! Don't miss the white chocolate bread pudding. Top notch friendly service and a cool atmosphere.

Okay, where do I begin? Jeanne and ken are truly amazing, I just got in from a very long day driving across Texas, drove from Arizona. I checked in at the La Quinta inn just up the road. As I walked in the atmosphere was perfect, Jeanne said to kitchen was closed (it was late) I said I would stay for a beer, while sitting there having a beer after a long day I asked her where was a decent place she recommended the Mexican place down the street and Burger King. Being from Arizona I decided Burger King was gonna be the spot tonight... About a minute later she comes by and says to me, I can do a pork steak beans Mac & chess - of course I said yes. The food is beyond amazing. Hospitality of Jeanne and Ken is truly amazing, seem to have hearts of gold and run a exceptional establishment. I will be back hands down even if it means going a hundred plus miles out of my way! I cannot say enough good about them and their restaurant. Thank you so much, Darius- the Arizona/Canadian. Again, I will be back! read more

Jeanne's Bourbon Street BBQ - Pork steak and heaven on a plate! - Barbeque Near Me - Westlake, Louisiana

Food is excellent. Their barbecue is delicious especially their stuffed baked potatoes. They have a special each day to check out.

It's honestly not that great. I've tried the burger with grilled onions and cheese- buns were cold cold... kinda tell u everything u need to know. Went a second time just to give it a chance and got the sausage dinner plate. It's a decent size but I felt they should have been cooked a little longer, though texture. No mashed potatoes on Thursday's - at least that's what I was told over the phone. BBQ sauce taste store bought not homemade. read more

Jeanne's Bourbon Street BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Westlake, Louisiana

Bottom Line: Very good BBQ at super reasonable prices in low key space. High value eatery. Great friendly staff. Top Line: Following a local's recommendation, I hit up Jeanne's Bourbon St. BBQ on the west side of Hwy 378 (Sampson Street) a few blocks north of I-10 in Westlake, LA. I ordered their *HUGE* smoked sausage sandwich $6 and a 20 oz drink $2, sweet tea for me. Sandwich came with either chips or cole slaw, so I went with the slaw. The sausage had plenty of smokiness and good peppery flavor. The bun was generous in size and it needed to be to hold the mini-mountain of slabbed sausage that came in the sandwich. Bun was sturdy enough to not fall apart while eating. BBQ sauce was sweet with pepper overtones. It reminded me of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce. Cole slaw was okay. Texture was crunchy, though not crisp, and taste was rather neutral. Neither particularly sweet nor tangy. Just straight up cole slaw. Sweet tea was pretty standard. Not insanely sweet, just enough. At two bucks for the big glass, cheap enough too. Hostess and waitresses were friendly and cordial. Clientele looked like everyday working folks with plenty of families with kids in the crowd. So no high falootin' airs put on here. read more

BEST BARBECUE EVER!!! Local family owns & operates this establishment. The decorations on the walls will keep you busy until food arrives. Great people great food. Friday night they serve Steak. Don't miss out. read more

Arrived in town and the owner of where we are staying recommended this place. I'm glad he did. After living 3.5 years in Pensacola Florida and not having decent bbq, this hit the spot. I had the fatty brisket and ribs with green beans and baked mac n cheese. For dessert, i had the bread pudding. I couldn't complain about anything. The atmosphere was pretty cool too. The entire place is decked out in Winchester memorabilia. The owner even has a table set up for fallen soldiers, officers, and fire fighters. The owner took time to talk to me about a motorcycle picture on the wall. He knew one of the guys in the photo. Great story. I would definitely go back to this place and would recommend it to anybody. read more

Excellent service, delicious food, and pleasant atmosphere makes Jeanne's a rememberable experience. Huge portions make it a wise value. Also, the white chocolate bread pudding was the absolute best I have ever eaten. read more

This was my first and last visit to this location. The meat was greasy and the ribs were obviously boiled. The bbq sauce was ok but the sides lacked. When we went to pay we were told there was a 4% fee for using the card. When I asked why there wasn't a notification on the door I was pointed to a tiny sign with this info. We will not be back. read more

Great friendly service and the food is wonderful. It's a must stop! I love that they support the local school with fundraisers! read more

There's a reason why they always look so busy....This is really good barbecue!!! We ordered the brisket/sausage dinners with baked beans and coleslaw. The brisket was absolutely wonderful! The sausage had a deep smoked flavor-very very tasty. The combos came with bbq sauce and a dinner roll. The bbq sauce is very Brisket DinnerSausage Dinner Plate good-the dinner roll is just a dinner roll..nothing spectacular about It. (The only change or recommendation i would make would be to offer a choice in dinner roll or CORNBREAD!) The people are friendly and the place looks really well kept. We plan on being repeat customers!! Thank you for offering our area such a wonderful choice. We love your BBQ!! read more

Service = Very polite (5-Star) Pulled Pork = greasy, covered in sauce (let the smoke & meat speak for itself) Brisket = dry (wasn't offered from the point or sliced) the sliced we got was dry Sausage = only smoked sausage is offered, no other flavors (jalapeño & cheddar would be legit) Decor = outstanding, with a ton of Winchester historical rifles on the wall Price = fair for the portion size read more

My husband and I have been looking for places along our route from Houston to Baton Rouge since we make the trip a lot. We are happy to have found this place! Definitely 5 stars for service and ambiance. Our waitress was so friendly and our food came to us within 10 minutes. There is a "No smoking and No Profanity" sign on the front door which is great; definitely a family atmosphere, though you may choose to sit at the half-moon bar if you'd like. We chose the pork rib dinner and the brisket and rib dinner. Both were very tender meats. I prefer a little more of a spice on the rub. The green beans were phenomenal--definitely a nice, garlic flavor. The baked beans had a chunk of pineapple. My husband said the coleslaw wasn't his favorite because the sauce was too diluted, but he said the mustard potato salad was great. The restaurant is conveniently located right off of I10, making this an easy choice for the long trips. Great find! read more

Chose this place on a road trip through LA. The prices are a little higher than I'd expect for barbecue but the food was amazing. The decor and atmosphere was cute and western themed, and has a full bar with saloon type decorations. Somehow feels both rustic and classy. My friend and I got the brisket nachos and baked mac and cheese to share and the nachos were incredible. The mac and cheese was okay. The brisket meat was extremely tender and the sauce was incredible- Id recommend getting a brisket sandwich but the portions on the nachos were huge and more than enough to share. Removing one star because the atmosphere felt extremely hostile. The woman at the counter was rude to us and it felt like everyone in the packed restaurant glared at us as we walked by. I'm really not sure why. read more

Jeanne's Bourbon Street BBQ - brisket nachos - Barbeque Near Me - Westlake, Louisiana

I used to eat there four times a week and I've watched the service decline. I was there 25 minutes before I could order a freaking soda. Ambiance, nice. Food, pretty good. Service.....they can keep the food. They'll be out of business next year without the local customers. read more

Very delicious brisket and sides. They offer two varieties of potato salad. I chose the sour cream base and it was delicious. The meat was tender and spiced wonderfully. A hint of heat. Yet not so spicy you can't stand it. The sauce was a nice compliment and didn't over run the flavor of the meat. They recently added an indoor eating area and it is very clean and decorated well. It's very casual atmosphere. A great addition to this small town. Easy oN and off of I-10 read more

I love their stuffed baked potatoes but they only serve them on Thursday so that's sad. The brisket nachos are great. All the plates are huge. The meatloaf is different. I don't understand the gravy meatloaf. I grew up with ketchup on my meatloaf which I prefer. Bbq is typical and good read more

My name is Dr. Q, and I have a Ph.D. in Barbecue; I am also a registered trademark of Jeanne's Bourbon Street BBQ. Jeanne and I only Smoke the Good Stuff around here. Everyone, please read this review. The first two lines are this place introduction for customers to come and taste what they have to offer. Please, we arrived back from vacation, tired but craving BBQ. I went to this place, and my husband stated a BBQ place, but I saw no smoke when we arrived at Jennie's. Bought two plates and 1/2 rack of pork rib. The plates were chicken and another pork rib. If the word nasty is fitting, I'll say it, but the meat tasted like something I've never tasted before. The ribs were BOILED, not cooked on a BBQ pit. The chicken was rubbery, with rice dressing; whoever attempted to make dirty rice failed. The ticket price I paid was $60.00, and I tipped them as well. When we arrived home, I placed the dinners in the frig until dinner. What a waste, and so so disappointed to even continue eating this slop of a dinner. I purchased brisket, which is not worth the $30.00 for a pound of boiled meat. If you have a taste for BBQ, please, by all means, skip this place. It is sad to misrepresent a customer when trying to keep your home or business open, but you sell slop. Where is the Ph.D. of BBQ schooling, your website states? Wherever you've received this Ph.D., you undoubtedly slept through class. If you want a great BBQ, DO NOT get it from this place. It's BOILED MEAT....... read more

I was so disappointed in the food. I was at the Horseshoe Casino on Memorial Day and ask where I could get me some good BBQ and was referred to Jeanne's which was close by. I ordered 4 ribs and doubled beans (was told the beans are really great). I noticed they had a catering order they were packing up into wrapped truck. Got my order and left her a nice tip to round my total to $25 even though she wasn't excited bout taking my order (figured maybe she was going through something personal). I get back on I-10 to my next stop Delta Downs. I decided I was going to eat a rib and some beans before heading inside. I be d@nm the beans had pineapple pieces in it but tasted horrible like either the pineapples and or juice was spoiled and the rib tasted like it was a day old and warmed in the microwave. I was so d@nm disappointed. I w!ll never go back to that place and when I got to my cousin house in Liberty and looked at the rest of the old azz ribs and smelling the sour beans I threw all away. I wouldn't even d@rn feed any of that to a dog. My Memorial Day was ruined. If I could leave an -10 review I would read more

Despite hurricane Laura, these people are working hard to serve their community as well as the workers who are helping repair their town. Despite all this they served us and it was great each time. No complaints. Definitely a 5 star establishment! read more

Hands down best bbq!! To die for ribs and brisket and nachos no need to say more I'll let the food speak for itself!!

Great stop between Houston and New Orleans. 3min off the highway. Very fast, very affordable, and amazingly enough it was very delicious. The pulled pork and beef brisket sandwiches were both GREAT. Friendly staff cleaned off our table and offered to get us sauces so we didn't have to get up. read more

I have gotten food from here a few times and everything I have had was great and cooked perfectly. I have had the chicken, pulled pork sandwich that was so loaded I could barely fit it in my mouth. Oh and the ribs are among the best I ever had and they are big, and the meat just pulls of like nothing. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Everything is good here. This place has the BEST bbq anywhere around. Particularly impressed with the table they have set up for fallen law enforcement/ soldiers / fireman. And you have to try their bread pudding. OMG!! read more

We had the pulled pork fajitas and the meat was delicious BUT the chips and cheese underneath were the oh so artificial (not real food people) kind you get at the ball fields!! That needs an upgrade or at least have a better choice to go under the pork! Like a fresh good tortilla or organic tortilla chips. That would make your place great! Good service and atmosphere! read more

With out a doubt best meat loaf ever I have been in several times in the evening and had the pulled pork brisket and sausage the food is amazing so far the best bbq I have tasted in the whole area including sulphur lake Charles Vinton I can promise to it want get much better than this and plenty of food read more

This is the best BBQ place. It's great for lunch or dinner. They really make you feel like you are at home there. The owner, his wife, the staff, and even the bartender are all sweet as pie! I highly recommend the brisket and pulled pork. The ribs are great also. Heck everything is good. I haven't tasted one thing there that I didn't like. The baked beans are to die for - they have sausage and pieces of pineapple in them. Even the pickles are delicious! I highly recommend you give them a try! read more

Delicious bbq, nice people that work there. Not far from hotels and casinos. Good size helpings.

First time out here. Told a local friend I wanted good bbq and he sure did deliver. Tasty food! Excellent customer service! Clean facility!

There was only one waitress during lunch rush, which wasn't her fault, but she was chatting at the bar with a guy vs attending to all her tables. Waited on my bill for 25min. Food was mediocre (pulled pork sandwich). read more
