Elsie's Plate & Pie

We got there and got straight in, in the afternoon in a Wednesday. We got the crawfish pie and it was so good!! Very flavorful and crisp. We tried a burger and a veggie sandwich too. Everything was very yummy and worth going back for. The fries were a big hit! The creole flavor was our favorite. We got the idea to visit here from Diners, Drive Ins and Dives and so far we haven’t been let down!!!

Total fan of this Restaurant!! I tried this place for the first time last year and it was wonderful so naturally while visiting NOLA I had to return and it did not disappoint. Bloody Mary's here are nice but the pies are the clear winner here. For starters we had the Smokey 3 cheese pimento on crostini with pepper jelly and the crispy Brussel sprouts. The main course was the Louisiana Poulet and Seafood pot pies followed by The Eye of the Tiger sweet pie (Lemon ice box pie with Blueberry whipped cream). If your ever in Baton Rouge this place should be your go to. Enjoy!!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Elsie’s Plate & Pie. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, welcoming, and unapologetically Louisiana. I started with the Cajun crawfish queso, and it set the tone immediately. Creamy, rich, and perfectly seasoned, it had just the right amount of Cajun kick without overpowering the sweet, tender crawfish. Every bite was bold and comforting — the kind of appetizer that makes you slow down just to enjoy it. For my entrée, I had the crawfish hand pies, and they were outstanding. The crust was flaky and buttery, golden on the outside and packed with flavorful crawfish filling on the inside. You can tell there’s real care in the seasoning — balanced, savory, and deeply satisfying. The roasted Brussels sprouts on the side were a per

Do you know when you experience a place that you won't soon forget? You take a first bite of something the server recommended and you're like, "omg" 🤤? This is one of those places. I was just passing through and thankfully read about this on the Michelin website. It's definitely worth driving to to try. Chicken poulet pot pie - 5/5 ⭐ spiciness level between mild and medium. Very yummy. Side salad - 3/5 ⭐ This was the only thing that I thought was a little boring. Dressing was very good though! Red beans and rice - 5/5 ⭐ Caramel pecan cheesecake - 5/5 ⭐ worth a trip just for this!

Can’t say enough good things about this place! Their food is delicious, the service is always top tier, and the pie is the best! We’ve been here multiple times and never had a bad meal. I recommend their crawfish hand pies and the seafood bisque. My husband loves their boudin burger. I love all of the pies they have to offer. We had the triple chocolate and vanilla pie which were their specials of the day. Plates were scraped clean! The only downside is parking can be a little tight because they stay busy but there is a parking lot next door to them that can be used if their parking lot is full.
