Tasting Room of Louisiana

I spent the last four nights here and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Tasting Room of Louisiana. The daily specials are fantastic and the regular menu is delicious as well. The bartenders (and the owner) are extremely knowledgeable about drinks and are also incredibly friendly. The building itself is gorgeous and well maintained; I can’t wait to make another trip back to Alexandria!

Nice little bar. Cozy atmosphere. Good, fairly priced whiskey. Delicious reuben sammich. Will definitely go there again when I'm in the Alexandria area.

This has become one of my favorite places to eat for lunch. The lunch menu is excellent;I've never had a meal I didn't love. Their dinner menu is good too, I just don't go out for dinner as often.

Melissa the owner is a certified whiskey sommelier (one of the few in the state). So it is no surprise that she knows her craft. She is makes excellent recommendations every time I go in, and is regularly acquiring new bottles.

I highly recommend stopping by and checking the place out. It's located downtown, and is across the street from both downtown hotels.

My dinner date and I came to this unique spot on Sat. 2-19-22 around 9:30. There were 2 patrons at the bar and the other tables of occupants dining.

I ordered the Tortellini Soup, and it was REALLY GOOD! I would like to come back to try the jambalaya and a few other items.

I also ordered the salted caramel cheesecake. It came out with Original Zap's chips on top of it...with a few pretzels, too. The cheesecake was VERY smooth/creamy tasting and the caramel was great.

My dinner date ordered the Charcuterie board. It was tasty!

Absolutely fantastic! This is my very favorite place to go for lunch and drinks 🍸
Melissa puts her expertise to use with her Smoked Old Fashioned. She literally smokes it in front of you!!
The coolest experience and the most comfortable pub/bar/restaurant I know.
