The only place to get true Creole food is in Louisiana, or at least in someone from Louisiana’s kitchen. Come reste un peu (stay awhile) to downtown Baton Rouge and visit Chef Mark Reilly's Creole kitchen.

    Everything was fabulous from the service to the amazing food we had! My husband and I shared a salad and the grouper special they had. Oh and the cornbread appetizer with maple bourbon syrup! You have to try this! I’ve had this restaurant on my list of places to try and I will definitely be returning!

    Cecilia Creole Bistro was amazing! The menu offers options for everyone, all of it delicious. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, and he knew how to pay attention to the table without hovering over us. And the cocktails were fantastic. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience and we can't wait to return.

    Visiting my daughter @ LSU My pork chop was undercooked. The waiter tried to tell me it wasn’t. I’m a certified chef and have been cooking for over 25 years. I know what undercooked meet smell and look like. I will never patronize them again. However, I went to a place while visit BR called Parrians. Food was incredible!

    Everything was wonderful! Seated on time. Excellent service. Food was incredible. Pork belly and crab cake appetizers, crawfish & corn soup, Cecilia side salads, and Shrimp and grits. It’s been a long time since I felt like I had food that was worth the price from a restaurant. We will be back!

    Had a reservation for 6:30 arrived at 6:23 and was informed by hostess that the table wasn’t ready yet. A group of 3 walked in less than 5min after without a reservation and were seated immediately. Waited another 10-12 min before being seated by hostess who never acknowledged the inconvenience or thought to apologize

    Food was amazing and is worth it. It’s a small space so can get noisy so if your looking for intimate romantic maybe not for you but if you just look for delicious food it’s the spot
