I came here for a birthday brunch recently and I am so glad I did. Nothing more do I love than a great restaurant who even though they are packed, still takes care of everything with professionalism and great service. The ambiance was kinda loud and bustling which was to be expected honestly. We came on the weekend for their brunch and it was packed from front to back. They sat us within ten minutes of us arriving to the restaurant. We had an amazing server who took great care of our family while we celebrated our mom. I got their omelet with an amazing Belgium waffle and crispy breakfast potatoes on the side. Everything was cooked to perfection. I loved every single bite. We also got 4 of their mimosa and champagne deals where if you buy a bottle of champagne, you get four juices of your choice with it. We had an amazing experience and we will definitely keep this restaurant on our list of great brunch spots! read more

I don't know how many times I've been here or why I haven't written a review, but the food and service here is great. Thursday wing night can't be beat. 75-cent wings - big, meaty wings, too. On this visit, I was a little surprised to learn that on Thursdays the selection of wing sauces is much longer than other days. But that's okay - I'm a fan of Mason's original sauce. Oh, and you'll find those on the appetizer menu. It's not a regular meal. Again - fine with me. An order of wings and a side of fries and I'm all set. The burgers are huge and delicious. The build your own burger menu means endless possibilities. Chicken and waffles and the onion rings are also very good. The only thing better than the wings is the build your own Bloody Mary menu. This is definitely one of our regular places (which also makes it surprising I haven't written a review. I'm such a slacker). read more

Classy sports bar vibes. We sat outside on their porch which is an amazing space for a party! BREAKFAST BURGER - this was the best hands down! Gently stacked between our Sweet Sourdough Bun are a 4oz Homemade Pork Sausage Patty, American Cheese, one over medium fried Egg, Crispy Bacon, a 4oz Hamburger Patty, more American Cheese, and a second over medium fried Egg CHICKEN & BISCUIT WITH GRAVY - this was tasty, but dry Freshly baked Biscuit with a Spicy Fried Chicken Breast, Cheddar Cheese, Bacon, and an over medium fried Egg, topped with our Country Sausage Gravy read more

Done changed my mind after another visit which turns out will be the last one. Service is friendly but not actually good--walked right by us without making eye contact way too many times. Then the side order of onion rings was literally 5 rings for $3.50! My cuban sandwich was so skimpy-it was literally one slice of the thinnest ham I've ever seen. Tasted ok but come on guys! read more

Really like the updates and expansion that they have done! The light fixtures are beautiful and give the atmosphere a great look. I had the steak, eggs, biscuit, and grits. Unfortunately, the steak didn't have any taste. I had to use A1 which I don't like doing because I prefer a well seasoned, marinated steak. The biscuit was also really hard. My friend enjoyed her burger which included pieces of alligator! Our service was surprisingly quick given how packed it was. read more

My husband and I love Mason's Grill. The food is always wonderful and the service is great!

The first time I tried Masons grill I was highly disappointed and swore I'd never go here again. My sister was in town visiting and she picked Masons. The meal this time greatly changed my opinion. We were sat fairly quickly and out server was very attentive. I ordered the Honey Jalapeño Wings and my sister had spinach dip. This was the second time I was trying these wings and this time it got me hooked. Those wings are so DAMN good! I couldn't even get a good picture of them..Fried perfectly and the wings are a nice sized and meaty. I will forever eat these wings now. The chopped steak was okay. The wings honestly stole the show. They are remodeling and had a nice bar area. Can't wait to see what it looks like when everything is finished. read more

Delicious food! The service was great, as usual. The atmosphere is casual, but this place gets really busy. We came right at opening and were seated immediately. By the time we left there was a wait--but I promise it's worth waiting for! read more

Came here for brunch with a friend who recommended this spot. I'm glad she did! I enjoyed everything that I ordered and get food looked pretty tasty too. I got French toast as a side and eggs Benedict. It was pretty tasty. The staff was super thoughtful and attentive! Our waiter was very pleasant. The atmosphere in the restaurant was a mix of a brunch spot with a slight bar feel and there were tvs for watching sports. Nice relaxed vibe. Not bougie and not a hole in the wall either. A nice mix of vibes. read more

It's been a minute since I've been to Mason's but tonight was a good experience. There was one time in the past that the experience was not good at all and I think that's what keeps me shy of 5 stars right now. I'm waiting to be blown away. Tonight was really good. Met with someone for a dinner meeting. The restaurant was really busy and on that note maybe a tad bit noisy but it's good to see it being well-patronized. In the times I have been I've almost always run into a friend or two. As for the food--my friend ordered the boudin-stuffed onion rings and I tasted it. It was not as "stuffed" or as "fat" as what was shown on the menu but it was quite tasty. Order that and a side and you've got a good meal, I think. I would order it again. She had a build-your-own burger which she had sandwiched between two grilled cheeses and she seemed to really enjoy it. The side of sweet potato fries looked quite appetizing. I had the spinach and chicken quesadilla. It was well-filled with what tasted like a hot spinach dip, chicken and mushrooms. It really was better than I had expected it to be, and I definitely would order that again, as well. We both ordered dessert. She enjoyed traditional chocolate on chocolate cake and I had the cheesecake. The cheesecake was quite different, and not in a bad way. The texture of the cheesecake was whipped and fluffy--not dense at all as is more customary of a traditional cheesecake. It also has a delicious crust with pecans and it had a praline-esque flavor to it. I am glad that sauce was not offered because I think it would have taken away from experiencing the flavors of the cheesecake, which had notes of vanilla bean. Let me not forget to mention that it was served in a square and not your usual triangular slice. The portion size was also not overwhelming. It says "limited availability" for the cheesecake on the menu which makes me think it may really be homemade, and not a lot of restaurants like this make homemade desserts. Finally, I think the overall value of the food is great. The menu is broad, which typically does not translate to great food, but that's not the case here. Next time I hope to have that 5-star experience I remember from when we brought the kids years back. read more

Wow this place is awesome. Welcoming yet an upscale vibe. Lydia was an awesome waitress. Five stars might not be enough. Awesome selection of draft beer from Guinness to Gnarley Barley. First trip here I did the Bloody Mary. Should have ordered a double. Lots going on in that drink. Not bad at all. Also did the gumbo and crab cakes and was pleasantly surprised at the reasonable food prices. Would recommend and will definitely be back! read more

First time and I've fallen in love. We ordered the shrimp and grits (9/10), the boudin omelette (7/10), and the "jack'd up" potatoes (10/10). The shrimp and grits were perfection. I absolutely adored the shrimp and grits, perfectly seasoned and the shrimp were seared to perfection. The omelette was cooked so fluffy and was one of the better omelette I've ever had. I hate an omelette to be scorched and their's was far from it. NOW THOSE POTATOES!!!! Dude 10/10 I could've eaten a plate of just those potatoes. Our server was attentive and waited patiently while we struggled to decide what yumminess to partake in. Can't wait to go back. read more

We had the pleasure of being served by Hayden at Mason's Grill, and he was absolutely amazing! Super nice, attentive, and comical -- he made our dining experience enjoyable from start to finish. Unfortunately, management left a lot to be desired. We ordered a drink that was honestly just not good, Hayden did attempt to rectify the issue to the best of his abilities. Management was called and instead of making things right, we were told it was "policy" not to remake or remove it, even though it wasn't drank. That was disappointing and not very customer-friendly. Despite that, Hayden didn't let it sour the experience. He came back with his great personality and continued to serve us with the kind of service every paying customer deserves. If you go, ask for Hayden aka Jack-- he's the MAIN reason this review is 4 stars instead of 2. read more

Every time we eat here, it's good! There's only one time we had to wait and had so-so service, but that was before the new owners. I love the updates to the restaurant! Brunch is wonderful. And, they are spot on when it comes to getting food out with DoorDash! read more

Notes: 1) been here 3 times 2) good place to be 3) came for 50 cent wing Thursday back in the day Pros: 1) decent food 2) good service 3) interesting ambiance Cons: 1) some food is a little bland 2) service could be better with less customers Rating: 4/5 I haven't been here in a while. This is an older review. The wings were good for the price on 50 cent wing Thursday's. I did come here and got chicken and waffles and that was actually pretty good and worth it too. The wings all taste pretty good and for 50 cents at that time, it was way worth it. There really wasn't a lot of flavors for wings but it was okay. The service was good but it was kind of slow for the day. I think it was because of the wing special. When I came back later for the chicken and waffles, it was much better. The ambiance was okay. It's like a giant bar. It's hard to hear in it but there are plenty of TVs to view. Overall, I think I need to go back again. I think people should try it and see. It was good back in the day and if they have these deals then it may be worth it to revisit again. read more

The food here was delicious. We went here for lunch and the service was pretty warm but somewhat robotic which did not matter because the food here was awesome. The boudin stuff onion rings were honestly great, it was so good that we negated the fact that there was an inedible part of the onion in the ring. The etouffee and poboy was delicious and perfectly prepared. A very good experience overall. read more

This place is getting more expensive while the portion is getting much smaller. Food used to be above average. Recently, food is going down hill. In addition, expect a long wait for your table and 18% gratuity automatically added for a party of 4 or more, no matter how poor the service is. Christine, the hostess is extremely rude, no manner, no customer skills whatsoever. STAY AWAY, DO NOT RECOMMEND. read more

Food was good but major training and improvements are needed at the bar. I went for happy hour $5 well mixed drinks till 6pm. I asked for a Paloma the bartender Vic ( female,on receipt) told me should would need to google it so I kept my expectations pretty low. Wasn't the best but doable. I noticed when she made the drink she layered it like a cake. I figured that's why it didn't tasted right. So I told her to shake the tequila grapefruit and simple syrup then add the soda on top. Well when she gave me the receipt she had charged me $10 for a Paloma (1st drink) and $5 for a Tequila well (2nd drink) . I asked her is a Paloma not a well mixed drink. She said it is but she made the first drink with vodka realized she made it wrong when I gave her instructions on the 2nd. She made no attempts to correct the receipt by making it $5 or removing. I don't drink vodka and I was very disturbed that she was not going to tell me she had made the first with vodka. She claimed their register shows Paloma with vodka when she selected it. I have never heard this but regardless would that still not be a well mixed drink. When she googled how to make a Paloma for the first drink - it shows tequila so I'm not sure why she didn't ask for clarity or inform what she did. It's not my job to teach a bartender how to do her job ethically. I hadn't been to masons in 10 years and won't be returning - very disappointed read more

Idk this is just not the place for me I guess. It's a great vibe and everyone seems to love it. I haven't had a good meal there yet. The people are so sweet and friendly. I tried the tilapia with grilled shrimp and sweet potato fries. The tilapia was well seasoned but the shrimp didn't look like they were grilled long enough. The fries were definitely fried for too long in grease that had other parts of something in them. I couldn't even eat a third of my entire lunch. Not sure after all these years I'm going to give them another try. So sad considering this is a hot spot around here and I really wanted to like it. read more

Victoria was great as usual! LSU gameday brunch is best in Baton Rouge! i have been a regular for years. The food is always delicious .

I really can't believe that I let myself live In BR for 7 years and not make it of importance to try this gem out. First off, how do you beat the weekly specials, deals, and prices?! I MEAN, with inflation becoming a huge issue, family and friends can't pull off weekly dates anymore without breaking the bank! BUT NOT AT MASONS Food : if you're looking for comfort food on a budget, this place is great. Masons grill can even be an everyday lunch break! It's just that affordable and great. OMG and the DRINKY DRINKIE deals are so great. Service : our waitress was amazing. She checked on us without annoying us too much. She made sure our alcoholic beverages were filled. Ambiance : felt like a hole in the wall chill bar and grill. Kids specials are even great! Also, weekends mimosas special is a must apparently. However, I hear it is an incredibly long wait if you don't get there early . I think I've just found my new every week spot! read more

Lunch as Mason's Grill is pretty basic but decent food. It's not bad, not amazing. There's better lunch spots around. I didn't try the brunch but it seems that might be the stronger meal at this place. I had the Grown Up Grilled Cheese Sandwich and added spinach. There is option to add bacon or spinach... the waitress recommended to add bacon... but not my taste. Sweet potato fries were ordered for the table and they arrived with a brown sugar cinnamon flavoring on them. read more

We got masons to go for lunch today at my work. Everything on the menu is so heavy or fried food. Even the grilled platters and soups feel very heavy. I decided on the grilled chicken salad which is lettuce, grilled chicken, strawberries, pecans, corn, red onions, avocado, and cheese. Weird mix but was excited to try it! I put no cheese on our order and it still came with cheese, bummer. But it also had like 3 little slithers of strawberries on the salad. All together it wouldn't have equaled even a half of a whole strawberry. The chicken was good and the strawberry walnut vinaigrette was a nice flavor adder. Overall the salad was good but I wish it had more strawberries and less cheese. read more

Mason's has never been a stellar, stand out experience for me. I've gone for the overhyped brunch before a couple of times, and most recently we went for dinner. This was my first time going since the new ownership took over, and I do hope they have some much needed improvements in the works. First, parking - it's not great, there is a main lot that fills up quickly and the narrow lane makes it down right dangerous to maneuver. They have parking alongside the side of the building with a gravel lot. People who park there don't really consider that other vehicles may wish to park there as well, so they sort of park at will there. Additionally, there is not enough lighting in the back - walking out to my car after dinner was a little bothersome as there is a wooded area back near where I parked, and I really did not feel that safe. Thankfully, a couple was walking out to their car, and I think they sort of glanced at me a few times to make sure I was okay. I will not be parking back there if I return in the evening again. I would have hoped after the 2016 flood they would have evaluated the layout and design a little better. The acoustics are super bad and both the restaurant and the bar get rather noisy. Though it was just redone after the flood, the décor is very outdated. Maybe they did it for the charm, but it could have been modernized a little. Service was great - and there is a TON of staff working there. We never felt neglected or overseen. Our group was quickly seated and drinks ordered while we waited on the rest of them. (I think all the people in the cars must have been in the bar area because the dining room always had spots). The artichoke bread bowl was really good. I would order that again. The menu is pretty "Louisiana" - lots of fried stuff, a few grilled dishes. Our group ordered burgers, poboys, and the Thursday night wings special. I ordered the ahi-tuna salad. The tuna was cooked pretty well - just a light sear as it should be. It's on a spring mix lettuce blend - not the most fork friendly salad. Maybe I missed the note on the menu, but there was blue cheese mixed in throughout it, not really a fan, but maybe my oversight. There wasn't anything overwhelming about it, but it was not bad. The drinks were meh. I ordered an old fashioned and apparently some new liquors were on stock, but they didn't know them and didn't list them anywhere. The drink was very sweet with muddled cherries lining the bottom of the dish and not much of a traditional flavor. I also ordered a bloody mary. They left the cayenne salt off the rim of the mason jar and the type of vodka I ordered wasn't great (my fault), but overall, it was an okay one. They pride themselves on their bloodies, but maybe they're just better with brunch. Again, not a bad experience, but I suppose I just expected more from them. They're kind of a "BR staple" but with so many other places to choose from, I don't think Mason's would cross my mind as a first choice. read more
