re: Who’s got the better restaurant scene, Jefferson Parish or East Baton Rouge Parish

I don't eat in JP often but i'd imagine these markets are fairly comparable. Each probably has something that they do better.
BR has a pretty decent restaurant scene now. That wasn't always the case.

I thought you meant me throwing up .. no, was not a food issue but the place was pretty good but meh, too much pasta.
One downtown is about the same.

Anyone else impressed by J. Alexander’s being in the same spot for over 20 years now? For a chain, that’s incredible consistency, especially for a smaller size market.

J. Alexander’s is consistent and the staff is fantastic. They do great for a chain

JP has come back inn so they win.

It's one of a few chains that I enjoy. The food is good. We go there for drinks after work fairly often.

Yeah we like Zea too. There are some decent chains out there.

J Alexanders attracts a pretty decent 30-50's white collar crowd most evenings. The bar is pretty solid and the food is good. It's also right near several of the biggest employers in BR.

That sounds like a shot.

I think there’s still a good 2-3 pages of arguing left in ole pridey

I meant me, since I am the only one in here posting about DD and AB.

put Marcellos on Perkins up against anything nola has.
What about Marcellos in Nola?
I don’t dislike it but a place like oak oven in Harahan is better. I like Domenica better too. Josephine Estelle
I’d rather eat at old school places like Vincent’s or Moscas but understand that prob isn’t a shared sentiment. My meals at Marcellos have just been ok

I was trying to keep Nola out of the conversation. if you inject Nola, BR goes down to like 500 on the list.

How many times has Vincent's tried and failed to crack the BR market?
Posted on 3/19/19 at 7:03 pm to t00f
He said he’d put it up against anything Nola has
I know that dude knows Nola has a Marcellos prob just a brain fart

I'd rather the old school Italian places also. My favorite in BR is DiGiulios because of that vibe. I think Vincent's is the same for me.
Marcellos daily specials can go up against Domenica imo.
