Food NetworkNovember 20, 2014Brigtsen's knows the secret to Southern food: simple honest cooking done exceedingly well. Try the pecan pie, a "sit back, relax and luxuriate in the moment kind of pie." Read more
MarcJanuary 11, 2021Esquire: Family-run bistro interprets LA classics from the Creole, Cajun, & Southern canons; Tiny kitchen with abundant Gulf seafood and year-round farm bounty. Pecan pie that will haunt your dreams.- EpicuriousAugust 23, 2010Locals love this restaurant for the native food with a spin. The head chef is an avid fisher, so expect the seafood to be excellent. You should also try the rabbit-andouille gumbo, rich & flavorful.
