Cafe Burnside at Houmas House Plantation and Gardens

Amazing service and delicious food that could beat many expensive restaurants- blew my expectations- the shrimp main course in particular was delicious, with great touches such as pecans within the salted butter (accompanying the warm biscuit and bread).

While on business in the area our client took us the the Cafe’ Burnside and wow it was nice! The whole experience from sitting in the formal dinning room to our server that was excellent to the food being so damn good! I could see coming here for a special occasion like a birthday or a anniversary and for that matter, you could come at any time and be treated like a king or a queen! That’s pretty rare nowadays!!! Love this place!!! :)

So charming... delicious food... kind service...the grounds are incredible

Great spot to eat while touring the beautiful grounds. We had two dishes that ended up being enough for two meals. The Eggplant Napoleon was very unique and very tasty. Would highly recommend that. The oyster po-boy was also good.

Fantastic hidden restaurant surrounded by lush tropical landscaping - this restaurant never disappoints! The Sunday brunch is all-you-can-eat and is a great value. The drinks are strong, cool and delicious. Make sure you stop in at the nearby Turtle Bar which is only a few feet from the entrance to this restaurant. It's one of the most interesting and unique small bars you will ever pop into in the Baton Rouge - New Orleans areas. If you do find yourself eating at Cafe Burnside or grabbing a delicious cocktail at the Turtle Bar, I assure you that you'll be smitten and continue coming here no matter where you're from our how long your drive is. Guaranteed!
