Omi is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant in Baton Rouge. Some friends picked up from there on Saturday and said they had a huge For Sale sign in front of the restaurant. Very sad if this is true. I hate to see them go.

if true my guess would be they struggle price wise in a city that believes the menu picture places are what Chinese food is and should cost

When I had work in BR, I'd go there for lunch at least once each week I was there. I loved it, but it was almost always completely empty except for our table and I never understood why.

Check out Nine Dragon Noodle House next to the Walmart Market Highland and Lee (not Nine Dragon on Burbank). Ive had some bad meals at Omi and some fantastic one. Nine Dragon Noodle House is consistently very good and like Omi is a cut above you average strip mall take out.

I hope that isn't the case. I was worried when they closed these multiple times for COVID. I wish they'd find a nice building in Ascension parish and set up shop.

The other good one is Lee's Asian Fusion up north of Denham Springs. I thought Nine Dragon Noodle was good, but not of Omi or Lee's sichuan quality.

I asked the guy in my office from Guangzhou where he would go for Chinese food. He said Omi, so that's where I go.
