About
This spot is best for anyone craving top-notch pizza and Italian comfort food in a casual, laid-back setting. Louisiana Pizza Kitchen is an LGBTQ-owned staple in the French Quarter, sitting across from the French Market. Don't let the name fool you: the menu goes well beyond pizza, with standouts like the hot and spicy Italian Barbeque Shrimp and a red beans and rice appetizer that regulars rave about. The vibe is mixed gay/straight, friendly, and unpretentious. You can grab a seat on the outdoor patio, bring your dog, and order from the full bar.
Service is warm, and the wait staff are known for their charm. The hours are consistent every day from 11:30 am to 9:30 pm, making it an easy stop before or after exploring the French Quarter. Reservations are accepted, which can help during peak times. The pizza crust gets particular praise for its texture and flavor. If you're still hungry after, a short walk brings you to Cafe du Monde for beignets and coffee.
Louisiana Pizza Kitchen is located in the French Quarter near Barracks St, just across from the French Market, making it a convenient stop for a casual meal while exploring the historic neighborhood.

“excellent”
The food was delicious. We tried the gumbo, which was some of the best we had during our visit. I ordered the chicken pizza with that barbecue-style sauce, and my companion had the veggie version. Both were excellent, especially the crust. Definitely worth stopping by.

“Great vibe, outdoor tables, conviviality galore”
Excellent food, friendly and attractive waitstaff, and a good selection of wines, pizzas, salads, and seafood. My favorite dish is the red beans and rice appetizer, followed by the spicy shrimp in a buttery herb sauce, served in a porcelain boat with crisp New Orleans French bread. Absolutely amazing.
