Brigtsen's knows the secret to Southern food : simple honest cooking done exceedingly well . Try the pecan pie , a "sit back, relax and luxuriate in the moment kind of pie ." Read more
The signature dish—sesame-crusted, shallow-fried rabbit served with mustard sauce—is a masterful blend of Cajun ingredients and Creole technique. More places to eat like a local: tandl.me/12ufz7c
Esquire: Family-run bistro interprets LA classics from the Creole, Cajun, & Southern canons; Tiny kitchen with abundant Gulf seafood and year-round farm bounty. Pecan pie that will haunt your dreams.
Locals love this restaurant for the native food with a spin. The head chef is an avid fisher, so expect the seafood to be excellent. You should also try the rabbit-andouille gumbo , rich & flavorful.
Great place to try paneed rabbit - it's made with a sesame crust and served with an excellent Creole mustard sauce . Read more

Good food and incredibly friendly staff ! The lemon creme brûlée was great!
