A second place I'd recommend is where we consider the best burgers in Ascension Parish, and probably ranking up there with some of the top burgers in GBR area.
My recommendation is solely for the food, as the service can be very hit or miss and I find that many times they are just simply under staffed.
Pelican Landing Grill in Gonzales, LA on HWY 44 near pelican point.
The place used to be called Pelican Landing Seafood, and in my opinion the seafood wasn't very good. Turns out, the recently renamed/rebranded the place to Pelican Landing Grill and have added numerous burger selections to their menu. Apparently we weren't the only ones who thought their burgers were better than their seafood.
I won't go into as much detail on this one. The place is pretty casual, shorts are fine. Pass on the seafood, order the burgers. Don't expect amazing service. Call in your order to-go if you don't want to risk the hit or miss service.

The Shell station on Perkins, between Bluebonnet and Siegen has really good hamburgers, gyros and chicken shawarma. Prices are good too - cheeseburger, fries and a fountain drink for $6. I probably get lunch from there once every week or two.
Spanish Town Grocery also has good burgers and poboys. Think they do a plate lunch thing on weekdays. A lot of state workers hit that place.

Do you mean Hwy 44 or somewhere on 30 that you consider close to PP?

I'll disagree with you there about Pelican landing. had it once or twice when I worked over there and I wasn't impressed.
Jasmine's is great as is Anthony's Italian Deli. Although, I'm not sure if thats considered a gem any more.

Tried out the landing last night with a baw of mine. Probably the best burger in the AP. The bun was very solid.
You were right about service though, it was interesting to say the least. Not bad, just interesting.
Best part of the night was walking over to Pelican Pub next door and having some cheap beers and playing golden tee. And being served by a sexy arse cougar.
