Because there weren't already enough burger restaurants in south Louisiana?

Is Baton Rouge's burger market ready for another contender?

Aside from standard fast food locations, there are plenty of specialty burger joints. Shake Shack opened in November — and there are two Mooyahs, Curbside, four area locations of Burgersmith, two Smalls Sliders, BurgerIM, Smashburger, Atomic Burger, Five Guys and more.


quote:

Even so, Michael McGill, president of Bobby's Burgers — the hamburger joint backed by celebrity chef Bobby Flay, says the franchise has its eyes on Baton Rouge.

From the franchise headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina, McGill said the company is "very serious" about the Baton Rouge market and is hoping to find the right fit to make it happen at their Feb. 9 Discovery Day in New Orleans.

Bobby's Burgers will be opening its sixth franchise Feb. 10 in Harrah's Casino in New Orleans. The seventh Bobby's Burgers is scheduled to open in Phoenix in March.


Curbside, Burgersmith...that's really all we need. The others are just extra.

Baton Rouge's burger game is really strong. We don't need another burger joint.

We need better Pizza restaurants.

I think the Vietnamese make better Chinese food than Chinese people. And there are a handful of awesome restaurants in the Sherwood/Florida neighborhood.

Not fancy though. But very good.

Bobby Flay's burger place in ATL has some amazing milkshakes and burgers

Would put overpriced Shake Shack to shame

It would be nice to have a good sit down pizza place with wings, calzones and beer with a lot of TVs.

I wish Walk Ons had good pizza and real wings.
