Crawfish cornbread isn’t that uncommon, but it is one of those menu items that will make you do a double-take. The combination may seem strange, but trust us, it works. Every restaurant that makes this unique Louisiana delicacy has its own way of making it, and Capital City Grill is one of our favorites.

Tucked away in the heart of downtown Baton Rouge, Capital City Grill may look like your typical downtown building, but just on the other side of those glass windows, deliciousness awaits.
