My husband and I had a wonderful Valentine's dinner at The Little Village. The food, ambiance, and service was perfect and our server was fabulous. 10/10—can't wait to go back for our next occasion.

We made reservations for Valentine’s Day. We arrived 20 min early and they sat us right away. Drinks were fantastic. espresso Martini to start, then speak easy Margarita’s and Old Fashioned for the Hubs. We did not do appetizers so I can’t comment on that but the Dry Aged Pork Chop is what we both ordered with brocolini and truffle fries which was all very good.

Cecilia Creole Bistro is outstanding! I had the filet and it was perfect! Sides are excellent. It's a tad tricky if you're eating KETO but it can be done. Wife had the Redfish Cecilia - grilled and it was mouth watering. (I tried a bite!) Everything served has an excellent presentation. Service is great but they don't hover. We don't drink so I can't say anything about cocktails. Some very interesting appetizer choices... definitely try the brussels sprouts and the cornbread! Prices are very reasonable considering the gourmet preparation! We love it! P.S. The pre-written choices for what makes this place special are way off base! (pet friendly, brunch, outside seating, etc. Just know that this place is worth checking out for date night in downtown Baton Rouge. Parking on the street or in a lot close by. MAKE A RESERVATION! Enjoy! Bon Appetit!

Stroubes is a very good choice if you are in Downtown Baton Rouge looking for a place to eat. The menu covers pork - steak - seafood. The bar drinks are good and within the normal for pricing. There is not a lot of “fluff” to the menu which makes ordering easy. Good date night kind of place.
