Must eat/see in Natchitoches?

Until this past December, I have never been into Natchitoches other than stopping at the gas station on the side of 49.
My wife, child and I went to the Christmas Festival on the river and I was pleasantly surprised at the riverfront restaurants and the whole feel down there.
We are planning on making a weekend trip soon and I was wondering what the best spots would be from breakfast, lunch and dinner.
We plan on staying at the Church Street Inn to be within walking distance of most things.
Also any sightseeing recommendations would be appreciated.

I hate to be a negitiger, but everything I need in Natchitoches, I can get from the gas station next to the IHop just off the exit.

I see where you are coming from.
With a 1 year old at home, we are just itching to get away even if it is only an hour down the interstate.

They do have a Johnny's Pizza House, so there's that.

Don't let me discourage you. I would do whatever you wanted to do in town during daylight. It's the oldest city in the state. Get your tamales "with."

There used to be a nice seafood restaurant on the lake. I think it was on hwy 1 South of town. (It's been a long time so hopefully somebody else can confirm this).

Mariners is on the lake. It's been there a long time. Decent food with a cool setting. The other one is the landing on front street.
I haven't been back in five years but going up for my 15 HS reunion in May.
Beaudoins (sp?) used to have some pretty good pizza but I think they closed then reopened. Not sure of the status at the moment.
Lasyone's for some meat pies. There's some western/frontier themed place that we usually drink at. Name escapes me at the moment.

Spent the night there on the way back to DFW from the Bama game. Merci Beaucoup, Maglieauxs, The Landing all have decent food. Drive out to Melrose plantation if you're up for a road trip. Front St. shops are kinda fun. Enjoy your weekend away.

That's the one I was thinking of on the river. It looks like it has a nice atmosphere and the outdoor dining would be nice on the river. Have no idea what the food is like, though.

It might be a good option. I think it fits the desires if the food is good.
