Louisiana Purchase

I gave the four star because it was the first visit and it was really good. The service was good loved the vibe of the music too! The food.....it was really, really good! We ordered a chicken and a seafood dish and it didn't disappoint. We definitely will return and save room for desert next time! Overall experience was really good!

Absolutely loved the ambience and the decor. Very chic, minimalist, and earthy. The r&b playlist was stellar and made for the perfect soundtrack for the atmosphere. I ordered the biscuits, jerk chicken wings, and smoked Gouda Mac and cheese. The biscuits were dry to me and the jam didn’t help as much as I hoped it would. The jerk chicken wings had great flavor and a nice kick to it, but weren’t tender. I would’ve preferred if the meat fell off the bone. I also enjoyed the Mac and cheese, and would definitely order again. I also appreciated their unique approach to keep the flies at bay while dining outdoors, I just wish the parking situation was better. The overall service was lovely—kind and considerate staff, smooth check in process, and friendly dining environment.

Hesitant at first -- trying to live up to Louisiana style cuisines in San Diego is a bold move.... But buddy let me tell, this was honestly the best food I ate during my stay in San Diego while visiting. Everything was packed with flavor.... I ended up searching for a location in Louisiana after eating... The atmosphere that's set will cause you to lose track of time, if you aren't careful.

My first time at this restaurant. Overall a great choice. Loved the ambiance, hurricane cocktail, gator fries, BBQ shrimp. I have uploaded pictures of the entrees and apps. Gumbo wasn’t my favorite, too salty.

With Southern roots, I'm a little skeptical trying Southern or Creole restaurants outside of our territory. The Louisiana Purchase was worth 10 stars. The service was phenomenal. If you go for brunch, you have to try a bloody mary even if you don't usually drink them. All of the food was excellent!

I came here based on the reviews. I’m very disappointed with the food and service. We didn’t have a reservation. The hostess was accommodating and arranged a four person table for five of us. We waited at least 30 minutes for our food. When our Spicy Chicken Skillet came out, it was with chicken wings not chicken breast. We ended up having way too much chicken wings as we already ordered another chicken dish. The chicken wings did not taste fresh and spicy chicken wasn’t spicy. Several of them had lots of feathers. I told our waiter but he said chicken wings are supposed to have some feathers. I understand that chicken wings have small feathers that are hard to clean but we didn’t pay close to $30 a plate to eat feathers. I asked if he would eat it and he didn’t respond. If you price your dishes at the higher price range, then I expect food quality to be good. Edit: I’m here to add that my husband threw up and had diarrhea last night. I do believe it’s from the chicken dinner last night. I’ll look into it further. Please don’t serve chicken that’s not fresh and full of feathers to your customers!!!

Upon our arrival, we were promptly seated and greeted by our server. The restaurant has great ambiance, great music and the food was delicious! Everyone was pleasant and professional. Our server Patrick was on point and kept the food suggestions coming!! The chef graciously made an off menu item of lobster mac and cheese for our table. It was a first class experience! We will definitely be repeat customers!!

Delicious and high quality food and friendly service! We ordered the crawfish mac and cheese which was cooked to perfection. Also the lemon pepper wet wings, cajun fries, ox tail rolls, and cheddar garlic biscuits were all satisfying! They give large portions. You will not be disappointed, just make sure to make reservations at least one day in advance.
