Patio Grill - Baton Rouge

Patio Grill and Bar is inside of Crowne Plaza Hotel and it’s pretty good for hotel food! I stayed at Crowne Plaza for 4 nights and had complimentary breakfast as well as a $6 drink vouchers for each night, so I got discounted cocktails. For dinner, I enjoyed the appetizers like the 3 tacos and quesadilla. The steak was not bad but not the best. I had the bartender make off-menu cocktails and they were really tasty! The wait staff has exceptional customer service!

Restaurant convenient for conference attendees as parking is tough to get with the number of participants and in/out was not an easy task. Food is ok, not great, pricey for the quality of food, staff were friendly and worked hard for the customers, thus, the only reason I returned each day. If it had not been for the serving staff, a quick snack from the vending machine would have worked. Conference, restaurant, bellman, front desk; let's just say, all around, the staff was amazing, very helpful, pleasant, and extremely professional. Hotel gets a 5, the restaurant food gets a 2. Overall rating 3

The lunch was a buffet. The sausage and chicken gumbo was excellent, as was the fried catfish. The seafood pasta and squash were not good.

Service was great but the menu has changed from what's online.

The food is reasonably priced for a hotel. However, like many places in the service industry, they are short-staffed. Despite this, the staff work very hard.
