A longtime Baton Rouge favorite, Southdowns Grille has built its reputation on elevated Louisiana cuisine served in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Their Restaurant Week menu continues that tradition with a three course dining experience for $45 that offers something for every palate.

Start your meal with one of three thoughtfully prepared appetizers. The Heirloom Tomato Salad combines fresh mozzarella, chimichurri, Parmesan, and a bright red wine vinaigrette for a refreshing start. Guests can also enjoy the chef's Soup of the Day, showcasing seasonal flavors, or the standout Fried Sweet and Sour Shrimp, tossed in a charred scallion and ginger glaze with yuzu ranch and fresh cilantro.

The entrée selections showcase the restaurant's creative approach to Louisiana classics. The Steak Frites features a perfectly grilled flat iron steak served with chimichurri sauce and crispy fries finished with herb aioli. Seafood lovers will appreciate the Redfish on the Halfshell, topped with rich crab butter, toasted almonds, and fresh chives. For something truly unique, the Homestyle Duck Meatloaf pairs comforting flavors with elevated technique, served alongside creamed potatoes, wild mushroom jus, roasted carrots, and scallions.

Dessert provides the perfect ending to the evening. Choose between warm Bread Pudding topped with sugar cane rum sauce and fresh blackberries or a decadent Chocolate Torte finished with toasted almonds, vanilla cream, and caramelized strawberries.
