Allow me to unrecommend. Nothing there has any flavor.

Silver level 2

Saw Mike Andersons on the map looks pretty good, will check it out. Best Pizza around in case the kid wants pizza? (which I also love)

I biased because it is my place, but Diversion Pizza, hands down over anything else in the area

Gonzales really is lacking in the "dining" area.

Sno's really is the best option.

Assuming you will be at AIM on Airline, it's a 5 minute ride.

Philay's is across the street from sno's but, they aren't very good.

Fratelli's is in the other direction on airline if you want Italian.

Casa Maria is a decent Mexican place.

Mike Anderson's is another option over on hwy 30.

Then there are the chains

Walkon's
Outback
BWW

I think its called excel in Prairieville.

I saw Diversion pizza mentioned in the $10 baton rouge lunch thread and it looks good. May have to hit it up for lunch before the meet Saturday.


Thanks all for the Recs.

Xcel is on 73 in p'ville. i know there's a jabby pizza place right down the road but, never been there. still not far from any of the other recs listed in the thread. and of course there's a lit pizza next to walkons on airline.

If you are in Prairieville, Hot Tails is very good. It's also kid friendly.

Its right down Airline by Hwy 42.

Roma Pizza is still pretty good, if you don't want to drive all the way out to Diversion.

Big Slice in Dutchtown as well, did the job.


After all day with 7 year olds at an event, Rotolos and beer.

How is this? Just went to the website and it looks well executed.

There was an Italian joint in the same place 20 years ago that was so damn good. But Pville couldn't fill the place.
