Restaurant closures—and what’s replaced them—in Baton Rouge over the past year

Tiger Deauxnuts and Barbecue closed in May, and Mj’s Cafe will move into the Government Street location.

So from Donuts and BBQ to a vegan restaurant. Talk about a 180. I wonder how they got the BBQ smell out.

In b4 whack

I totally forgot about Lava Cantina

And heard about Sammy's in Zachary...Sammy's as a whole was in a pretty bad spot until crawfish season. From what I understand they've really cheaped out on their providers recently and customers have noticed. Didn't they lose their liquor license for a week or so too?

Also while it may not be a big impact to many others, Smashburger closing on Corporate in favor of a Lit Pizza is going to be awesome for me

That spot where Marcello's is in is cursed, which is a damn shame because I actually really liked Marcello's (especially that bread you can order). Seems like nothing ever works in that spot.

Piccadilly To Go on Lee Drive also closed in May

I think that set a record for closing time... who could've predicted that failing in that location??
