Shreveport-Bossier: Louisiana’s Other Side is located in the northwest corner of Louisiana. Local cuisine reflects the influences of the Cajun and Creole kitchens of South Louisiana, as well as the legendary pit barbecue culture of Texas. Add to this already special mix a heavy influence of “country cooking” and soul food, and Shreveport-Bossier’s food scene becomes even more enticing.

This diverse community in the “318” is also home to many international flavors, from authentic Mexican taquerias and Vietnamese noodle houses to Italian-inspired fine dining, sophisticated takes on Asian cuisine and more.

Our first 318 Restaurant Week was held Nov. 1-5, 2016, and was a smashing success! The 2017 318 Restaurant Week, March 14-18, will again provide an opportunity to dine at local restaurants at special prices. Participating restaurants will create $10 and $20 special menus. In addition, several restaurants will be offering an elevated dining experience led by a local, celebrated foodie each night of the 318 Restaurant Week.
