Stopped in because we had heard about this place on diners, drive-ins and dives. Was told that the burgers there were top-notch, I went ahead and tried the. "Heavy hit"... Flavor was lacking and it didn't come with any kind of side dish. Just a 8oz burger on a small plate. Had to add ketchup to give it some flavor.... More

This place serves alot of fried food, so I'd expect some grease, but whenever your food is absolutley soaked in it and that's all you taste, even the low cost of food can't make up for that. Good bar and friendly staff, though.

Under I-10 sits an old brick building with basically no windows but serving delicious Cajun dishes. Walk in and write you own order on a ticket at the counter with your name at the top and they will call your name when the food is ready. Great value and huge portions!

Po-Boys, Gumbo that would satisfy my cajun mom, and catfish, shrimp and oyster platters that will have you licking the plate! Great prices and a place you'll never forget especially if you hit the original down on Perkins Rd under the overpass. Great for sports fans and families during the day. Great beer selection and surly bartenders at night. Oh... More

Georges under the bridge off Perkins has become a traditional stop for me & several colleagues our first night in BTR on business. The obscure location does not hide the fact that it's worth looking for and enjoying one of the greatest blackboard menus around. You write your own ticket and turn it in. The biggest problem is what do... More

If you want an original atmosphere burger dive, this is your place! It is tucked away under the I-10 intersate overpass of Perkins Road. The place has a real college feel. The food is always fresh and wonderfully prepared. It is a good value, not that big but no reservations and typically no wait needed.

Just a 'hood' bar that serves up some great food. Unique - u write your own order, put your name on top, they cook it, yell your name and you go get it. Nothing fancy, just good food at a reasonable price. Great little hole in the wall!

While i know it is supposed to add to the 'dive ambience', the dusty dollar bills hanging from the ceiling i find rather gross. Instead of waiting for the dust to fall into my gumbo i just choose not to look up! The food is the best. The shrimp poboy is so stuffed with shrimp it is hard to believe... More

Thanks to George's, I no longer enjoy poboys from anywhere outside this establishment. I refused to leave Baton Rouge without stopping here first. The poboys are HUGE, so they usually last me two meals, back to back. I always order mine with remoulade.
