Reviews for Parrain's Seafood Restaurant in Baton Rouge, LA
Parrain?s was selected for a birthday brunch for a family member, and we really enjoyed the lunch. First we ordered appetizers... for the table. Our selections were the oysters, blackened alligator bites and crab fingers. Everyone enjoyed sampling each item.My personal favorite was the blackened alligator bites. Though it is listed on the menu as Fried alligator bites, we requestedblackened. I highly recommend trying it if you haven?t already. As far as the entrees, we ordered a variety of entrees, and thefood was really good. There was only one complaint about the Brussels sprouts being a little overlooked. Other than that, it waswarm upon arrival to the table, and it was seasoned really well. I think it is safe to safe, the decision to dine at therestaurant was a good decision. I would recommend this restaurant if you?re looking for some food seafood. Read more
This is a great restaurant. This is my second time eating there on two trips to Baton Rouge. Both meals were fantastic, this... time I had the pasta that was loaded with so much seafood and meat that it was crazy. It was delicious. The service wasimpeccable, my hostess was always at the table whenever I needed her and she made sure that she stopped by during my meal andasked how I was. Read more
First let me say the service was very good. The issue and it happens most places is they want to take all of your order ASAP. ... I chalk this up to either the server is just eager or the restaurant wants to turn the table around quickly and have told theservers to do this. Our server did well and got the hint that we weren?t in a hurry and didn?t want to be rushed. I can?tstand it when a restaurant brings entrees out while you are still eating a salad or appetizer. Now that said, the atmosphere inthe back is not that great and table was small and wobbly. We tried to sit in the front in a booth but it was too tight. Thefried foods like fish and shrimp were great. The drinks were not consistent but pretty good and a great value. The chargrilled oysters were okay but not the best we?ve had. They weren?t really all that charred and the sauce was a bit odd, kindaof a gravy. I had the tuna steak Caesar salad which was good but the tuna was a bit overcooked. The only real miss food wisewas the rice dressing which was more of a boudin filling. Read more
Great food and impeccable service. We were given great recommendations by our server Radi. She had us try the three soups before... choosing one just to be sure we would like what we chose. It would not have mattered because they were all delicious. We endedup with the Corn and crab Chowder which was the best we had our whole trip. Read more
Food was stellar! I personally had the seafood pasta which was delicious! The other seafood dishes my family had wad tasteful as... well! I recommend to anyone in or outside of Baton Rouge. On top of that the place fit the seafood genre perfectly and the patiowas also pleasant & nice as well! Read more
Pretty good place for comfort food. Portions are super generous and the cole slaw was surprisingly great. What we order was... pretty much fried food but they have plenty of other options to choose from. Read more
A staff was excellent. The food overall just did not have a lot of seasoning that night. It just was not great for the price.... The bread pudding was extremely good though. Read more
Someone from the area recommend this spot and I'm glad I stopped in during my recent visit to Baton Rouge. We came on Saturday... evening and there were a lot of people, but fortunately only 2 of us and we were seated immediately. Great service and deliciousfood. I ordered several items and was pleased with all of my choices. The catfish po boy was good despite not having as muchfish on the sandwich. Still 5 stars in my opinion. Read more
