They have freshly made specials, muffulettas, and my goodness, the cannoli!! You really could get something different here every time you go! This is a great place to pick up something when you just don't feel like cooking, grab a host/hostess gift, enjoy some lunch, and share your experience amongst some really great people. They host occasional wine tastings and education nights, so make sure you follow them on Instagram. Just a wonderful experience when you visit! Saluti!

Everyone was so nice, it was fun to meet people and enjoy the experience with them. The instructors were awesome! Fun, friendly and informative. The food was phenomenal. We had reverse seared chuck steak with chimichurri, flavorful roasted potatoes, not your average roasted cauliflower, a light and tasty fennel/celery salad and an amazing roasted onion hummus with spicy chickpeas. For dessert I learned to make cream puffs and it was accompanied by an awesome in-house tea. I can't wait to book my next class with more friends. This place is awesome, can't recommend enough. Such a fun date night or friends night out. Heck, something fun to do yourself! Learn a new skill and get a great meal out of it. It comes with a store discount so I racked up before leaving. Big fan.

It is the perfect way to virtually travel to SK and as a former world traveler, I was blown away by how authentic this place was. From the kimbap expertly wrapped in triangle-shaped plastic to the adorable photo booth that offers visitors a chance to take silly photos with props and special effects, Seoul Stop reminded me so much of my time in Korea. The tuna kimbap was spicy and rich while the bulgogi kimbap featured sweet and savory beef enveloped in soft pillowy rice. We also enjoyed the wide variety of Korean snacks, with our favorites being the BBQ drumstick chips and the chocolate Pepero. The green onion popcorn was also surprisingly addictive and turned out to be the perfect movie-watching snack. Seoul Stop also has a few fresh dessert items like red bean buns, ice creams, and assorted cake slices. There's also quite a few pantry staples like gochujang and kimchi plus lots and lots of ramen! 10/10 If you're in BR looking for a unique experience, I highly recommend Seoul Stop. Service was super friendly and I'll definitely be back to stock up on more snacks!

When you read the reviews below, most people know what this restaurant is and how it works. My…read moreresponse is less harsh about the service or it's overpriced charcuterie board concept. I have lived in BR for 6 years now. Many departments at LSU take guests there and in that time, Building 5 has done nothing to improve its parking lot. The restaurant sits underneath an overpass and the parking is pothole marked unpaved gravel. This means that there is no room for wheelchairs or accommodations for anyone who is differently-abled to get into the restaurant. The whole restaurant makes no room for handicapped persons. On the occasion I did get food, the food is slightly overpriced. All meats were cooked adequately but the food was lukewarm probably owing to sitting in the kitchen under the heat lamp than being delivered promptly. When I have gone, I regularly have to ask for refills on soda as I am the designated driver often for department functions. Servers pay you no heed if you do not buy alcohol. Because I go here because of academic reasons, I would barely go here myself. I've been here many times and found it wanting. It's an ableist place in its infrastructure. It's fine I'm atmosphere as a cocktail bar but would little recommend it to people I call friend.

Yum yum yum. I have been eating at LTK for many years but had not been in a very long time. I was…read morepassing by and decided to stop for some of their crawfish. It was on a Sunday but it was not too busy. I got two pounds of crawfish with their potatoes. The crawfish was juicy and spicy and well seasoned. They were also a good size. The potatoes were soft and spicy with a great kick. The ambiance of the place is chill and gives a gas station type of vibe. It was quiet and it has an open space with no tables and chairs to sit down. They do also sale crabs, items in their freezers, drinks, and other boiled meats. Try them out if you are ever on Scenic Hwy!

With so many specialty seafood spots in all corners of Baton Rouge, the hunt for quality stuff…read moreusually comes down to just picking a place. One of those places is LTK, which has had a reputation locally as a no-frills option for quality boils, despite being slept on by most folks in the city. They have become an affordable destination for boils, especially during crawfish season. Like so many places in the hood, LTK isn't much to look at. Folks are usually lining up here for most of their crabs, or crawfish, and shrimp when in season. Owned and operated by a Vietnamese family, they are sweet to most folks but take zero ish from anyone. When things get a little hairy in these parts, they're the first to put their foot down. (#1) The menu is pretty simple: shrimp, crawfish, crabs, available in a seasoned boil or fresh (aka live). Shrimp is a premium and not always available, but the crawfish is dynamite. Wherever they're sourcing them is clearly local, since the crawdads are nice and large and well seasoned throughout. I appreciate the corn, potatoes, and eggs that thrown into the mix. They also offer meat like boudin and/or boiled sausage as well as obscure parts like turkey necks, pig feet, etc. Their food is always excellent. The prices are quite good and they're usually a few dollars off from more popular vendors. They accept credit cards ($10 minimum) but prefer cash. There are a lot of signs regarding food stamps, which is only acceptable for certain items but not for boiled meat. Beware of lines during crawfish season and since they run out of inventory practically daily, it's best to call ahead of time. ____________ (#1) Thanks for enforcing social distancing and masks.

I…read moreLOVE crab clusters and they have Snow and Dungeness at a great price and they are a good price. Sometimes you want seafood but you don't want to go get it so why not make it at home. They have all the fixings for a boil from the corn down to the sausage. The service is great the people who serve you the fish always give you what you ask for. Now the ambiance is to be desired. It's on the Infamous Plank Road. So shop with caution on that street. They always have a sheriff or two on the property to help keep down problems but still be cautious. I will continue to shop for my fresh fish and shellfish from this local home town staple.

Tony's does not disappoint. They have a variety of frozen items as well as a full steam table, steamed /boiled seafood and fresh fish. We went in hungry and left out with 3 bags of stuff. We got hot plates of fish, shrimp, smothered steak, jambalaya and boudin. They should really make a sign that explains the ordering process at the steam table. So many items to choose from and you can't be sure what's an entree versus a side. Options are plentiful and everything was good. I was disappointed that they sold the potatoes corn and turkey necks along with the boiled crawfish and shrimp but no sausage nor boiled eggs. We also left with a package of the best pralines I have had ever! The stuffed pork chops and stuffed whole chicken was a hit at our Memorial Day bbq.
