Custom suit in Baton Rouge or New Orleans

I think I've purchased my last off the rack then tailored suit. Nothing fits me like I want it to. I've come close with some nicer brands but I'd rather spend more and get something that truly fits.
Any recommendations on a custom suit establishment in Baton Rouge or New Orleans?
What kind of prices am I looking at?
Please no online retailer links where you measure yourself and a 12 year old Filipino makes your suit. I may do that down the road but I'd like to get at least one custom suit locally to get the full experience.

I buy suits from Perlis, but they're off the rack. The tailors are really good though and have made my suits fit me well.
Sorry if that doesn't help.

Manuel Martinez is hands down the best in BR, but could hit George bass just a few doors down from Manuel, they have some nice stuff. Both are on corporate near town center Neither are cheap, but you get what you pay for. It's like shoes, spend the money you get what you pay for and they last

When you do decide to get a made to measure --Macomber out of Hong Kong. The difference is the tailor comes through every few months and takes your measurements, and photographs of you so it's a professional fitting. He has tons of samples so you can feel and see the cloth. You pick the cloth etc. in your price range. He gives you suggestions on lapels and flaps etc based on your body style and age. Then the suit gets to you in about 6 -8 weeks. Figure $800 depending on the cloth you pick. He'll also offer you a nice single malt or two.
Done business with them for 25 years. Super legit and excellent work.
