We talk to Ryan Nizzo, Baton Rouge chapter president of the Louisiana Restaurant Association and manager of Walk-ons/Burbank.
225: It seems like new restaurants are opening all the time in Baton Rouge. How much growth are we really seeing?
RN: The Greater Baton Rouge market in particular is growing exponentially. There has been a 10% to 15% growth in restaurants over the last couple of years here. We’re seeing new concepts open and we’re also seeing more Baton Rouge-based restaurants open new locations in Livingston, Ascension and Zachary.
