Dude, you just don't understand the nostalgia and memories "Old People" have for Don's. The food is pretty typical of other average seafood places around BR.


I know! And they all walk in asking "Is Don here?"

My grandfather would always want to go there too. Was it the only good seafood restaurant in town for some period of time?

NOT easily swayed and often times "nostalgia" plays a part in the decision.


Exactly the case with my great grandmother. I would tear up the fried stuffed crabs when we would go together.

As a child, we would always get AYCE crawfish there.

I think they still do AYCE boiled shrimp one night a week.

"Duke" Landry the original owner just sold the BR Don's location about 6 months ago.

My last trip about 6 months ago, I was very disappointed.

Read the menu and then order what you find appealing. It's pretty simple really. Enjoy yourself and your family.
