Order was wrong, but we were too hungry to deal with it. This is exactly what's wrong with restaurants around here--start strong, then get lazy. No soul, just dumping Cajun seasoning on everything and hoping people don't know better. If you've had real Cajun food, skip this place. Overrated and not worth your money. Go home, crack open a cook book with a loved one and spend you money making memories.

We got a high top table near the back of the restaurant. It's a brew pub so lots of beer choices. The pizza is the best thing on the menu. I decided on the pepperoni. Beer was the blonde. The waitress was fast and knowledgeable. Pizza came out pretty quick for pizza. I order another blonde and I'm enjoying a slice. The crust is thin and pepperoni tastes like it was made in house. Sauce has a little sweet to it but definitely very fresh. It will be a regular stop when I'm in Shreveport/Bossier City.

Use to enjoy coming here, but quality of food was a massive step back from a couple years ago. And $88 for 3 people with no alcohol is wild for what they serve. Too many good Louisiana eateries to try this again.

Wow, who would think Shreveport had a place like this that plays this kinda music! I found a seat at the bar which has short stools for a tall bartop. Same can be said about the urinal. You better be at least 5'9 to even use it. I came mainly for the music, which consisted of dubstep, electronica, dance, and reggae-rap during my stay. During normal times, there is a DJ a few times a week that comes on 9-10ish. I saw him arrive early because i arrived even earlier, but by 1030 he still hadn't come on, so I went back to my hotel. Everyone I encountered was super friendly. Drinks were reasonable and well made and for all these reasons I'd definitely return when I come back to town.

And other times, there are instances that shoulder that letdown, and still get knocked back further for a few more yards for an even greater loss. And that's what happened here on my first, and probably last visit to this establishment. Allow me to explain. My buddy and I were set. We were going to see The Who in Dallas (three hours away) on the night in question. Yes, that The Who. We had our tickets for months, and then late the night before the show, legendary lead singer Roger Daltrey fell ill, and the show was postponed. We were lost. We had our permission slips signed and we were ready to go! The Who, baby! In Big D.! And now, we had a night off and no plans. What to do? What to do? My buddy forwarded me information about this gig here. The Electric Park, out of North Carolina. This venue exclusively promotes electronica, EDM, techno, you know whatever they're calling it these days. You know what I'm talking about. I'm cool with whatever. I'm down. Let's do this. I've been wanting to check this place out anyway. I like and enjoy all types of music. This place is small, and also is a similar aluminum siding structure with its' live music venue parking lot-mate, Strange Brew (which I support fully, and also enjoy). So, this is a smaller space here, but yet I still couldn't help envisioning dance clubs from the day, bodies everywhere. Pulsating to the heavy bass. Thumpthumpthump. (Yelling)-WHAT'S YOUR NAME?? Thumpthumpthump. (Her, yelling back in response)-WHAAAAT?? Thumpthumpthump (Yelling again)- I SAID, WHAT'S YOUR NAME?!?!? Thumpthumpthump (Her, also again)-WHAAAAT?? I was excited. I really was. Okay, so no Who in Dallas. They'll be back (I hope!) I'm ready now to get my rave on! Sure, why not? And then we walk in. Get hit with a seven dollar service charge at the door. And as that payment was being transacted for entry (this is around 10pm). I can't help but notice the sheer lack of humanity within the confines here at this moment. $7. For this? Yes, it's a small interior, and no, there aren't very many people here. If it wasn't for the tubthumping coming from the dj booth, we might have actually heard crickets instead. And were it not for the year-round humidity, we might have actually been knocked over by a metaphorical tumbleweed! This place was dead. This place made the Dead Sea look positively alive! Oh, there were some people there milling about. It was a rather odd assortment of people at that. Estimated ranging of ages anywhere from early twenties to early sixties by my own guesstimation. I know, right? Strange. There were some pretty ladies there in a small group huddled in front of the bar, but they all seemed to be regulars. No throngs of people gyrating to the beats. No sweaty masses. Nope. Just a few people here and about. Just standing around. Like a middle school dance and every bit as awkward. Zero energy in the room here. My regret, and my remorse, from plunking down seven bucks to just walk into this place, was providing its' own energy, albeit a very negative one. And this brings us to the final blow. The cost of the drinks here. Ruh-diculous!! The cooler was out, apparently, so we ordered two Abita drafts, a Purple Haze, and an Andygator. $9!!! For two teeny-tiny Louisiana-brewed drafts!! Not bottles!!! Drafts in plastic cups!! Like, a twelve ounce draft in a plastic cup was $4.50!! C'mon, now! I tipped the bartender a buck, so now we're talking TEN BUCKS!! For 2 beers!! Two draft beers in plastic cups, Ten Bucks!! Nooooo thank you!! No thank you!! So, to total up this lackluster evening, $17 for 2 small draft beers. And an absolute non-scene! A waste of valuable time that I could have been doing anything, really anything, else. For me, a $5 cover, and $3 draft would've been far more agreeable. $11 versus $17. Maybe not a big deal to some, but for me, it was enough to cease operations on what was already a rather disappointing night.

9/27/19. Friday night. Here for The Electronic Park, out of Charlotte, NC. Experimental Electronic Music. This scene here is all EDM-Techno.
