Calm down - my whole family works in the hospitality industry all over Louisiana
My point is BR is a weird town to have a restaurant in. People either go to the next new thing, until there’s a next new thing - or keep going to the same old places even if they suck. There is almost no in between.
When there’s something new and innovative - people jump on that but it never sticks.
The food culture in BR needs a little bit of changing - and it’s getting there.
As for the reservations - a lot of that has to do with the fact that places are short staffed right now bc they’re not at full capacity. Of course Beausoleil will be packed tonight - because it’s ‘new’.
Everything you have stated is generic and applies to all cities, specifically cities of this size. BR isn’t an outlier and if your family is in hospitality all over Louisiana you would know that.
Your point of people going for cheap alcohol is rather halfwitted. Do you think all diners in Baton Rouge are Greek pledges?
Baton Rouge has a solid list of good restaurants of many different cuisines and always has. Some come, some go just like anywhere else. It’s not New Orleans, Houston, Austin nor does it ever aspire or pretend to be.
Pole dancing is part of the hospitality industry. What’s your families take on tit bars?

That they should be fully opened for everyone to enjoy like everything else should be

And on a more serious note:
Frank Stitt has done some wonderful things in Birmingham - I think BR could be more like that. BR could also be more like Austin - although I’m not necessarily in favor of that. Especially since plenty of people visit bc it’s the state capital and LSU/Southern. I’m not saying BR has to be NOLA - but where is the fine dining? There are so many possibilities because of the type of town it is - but they seem to be lost.
The people getting cheap margaritas at the several restaurants that I know of are not Greek Pledges. They might be parents of Greek pledges.
You have to realize - just because you do not act that way - doesn’t mean others don’t.
