Do you ever find yourself longing for the fun and festivity of New Orleans, but don’t quite have the cash to hop on a plane down south? Never fear! There’s one eatery here in the Great Lakes State that will offers up a mouthwatering taste of Louisiana closer to home, and you’ll wonder why it took you so long to visit.
Lagniappe Cajun Creole Eatery is located at 145 Jackson Cut Alley in Marquette.
Sure, this one-of-a-kind restaurant might be situated in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, but don’t let that fool you: the tastes you’ll experience here are pure New Orleans.
As soon as you set foot inside, you’ll be charmed by the restaurant’s simple yet festive decor. Each wall is covered in bits of New Orleans history and culture.
Don’t worry if you missed Mardi Gras this year: when you opt for a meal at Lagniappe, you’ll wonder if you’ve been swept away to the excitement of Bourbon Street.
Of course, the menu here is a major part of the appeal. No matter what you select, you can count on generous portions and made-from-scratch deliciousness.
Start out with an order of fried green tomatoes or mix it up with a plate of alligator bites. This is southern cuisine at its very best and most authentic.
From gumbo to po’ boys to crawfish etouffee, there’s an abundance of Louisiana classics to select from at Lagniappe. Can you imagine anything more delicious?
As if that weren’t enough, you can enjoy a drink or two at the in-house VooDoo Bar. Follow up your meal with a visit to the GrisGris Gift Shop, and you’ll swear you’re in NOLA!
