Louisiana Pizza Kitchen Restaurant Review:


On a corner just across the street from New Orleans’ famed French Market and flea market, Louisiana Pizza Kitchen is all about Northern-style, crispy thin-crust Italian pies baked in a wood-burning brick oven and such entrées as herbed spaghetti, stuffed shells, chicken manicotti and garlic shrimp pasta. Stand-out additions include a wood-fire grilled stuffed pork chop, wild mushroom fettuccine and grilled artichoke hearts. The two-dozen pizzas range from grilled eggplant to barbecued chicken. Hearty calzones and heart-healthy wraps share billing with imaginative salads and an andouille sausage gumbo, the latter one of several local flavors. Red beans and rice, maque choux and crawfish etouffée signal influences from regional cuisine. Crème brûlée and bread pudding are the house-made desserts. While there’s a respectable list of wines by the glass, the real beverage attractions are the micro-brewed and imported beers. Still, wine lovers appreciate LPK’s ever-evolving list, particularly the smart selections of international reds that pair easily with the meaty cuisine. The space is gently lit with an open kitchen, and walls lined with revolving exhibitions of local artists’ works.
