If you want a good poboy go to Darrell’s

Darrel's surf and turf poboy is one of the best poboys anywhere. Macfarlanes is a pretty good irish pub with good beer selection and pretty good food menu.

Not a whole lot to do in LC from a tourist perspective. Gambling is the #1 attraction, then food. Just gotta be in town when something is happening. If your meals are comped, then you may decide to save the $150 for a meal downtown and eat at the casino hotel. If venturing out for groceries, Luna and Mazen have incredible food. Seafood Bills obvious choice for seafood.

KD's diner is a hole in the wall spot with a pretty good breakfast.

Am I the only one that thinks Steamboat Bill’s is overrated?

Slide down to Hackberry, get a guide and go fishing. Lots of good spots in sight of the casinos, all the way down to Big Lake

If you have a chance also stop at Don's specialty meats and pick up some boudain and cracklins for the house!

Luna's in downtown has awesome Tuna.
Just East in Iowa is In-Laws they have really good fried ribs.
Famous Foods Soft and Spicy Cracklings are good.
As far as things to do I don't know we are usually there for the casino and we only venture out to eat lol

Darrels for a good poboy. If you want to take her to a nicer restaurant, Mazens.

You are not the only one. Crawfish are okay but the gumbo might as well have been water based soup.
