Baton Rouge food news roundup: Reveillon dinners, Prince St. Pizza and more

Feast for the holidays

Reveillon dinners are back at Eliza Restaurant & Bar for the holidays.  

The traditional Louisiana Midnight Mass dinner has been a beloved New Orleans occasion, but for the last four years, this local Baton Rouge spot has brought the multi-course meal to the Capitol Region. This year’s three-course menu features two choices of appetizers and entrees, including turtle soup and grilled shrimp risotto, followed by a gingerbread cake for dessert.  

The prix-fixe menu is $48 and is available through the end of December. Reservations are recommended. Find more information and make a reservation here 


New York City pizza is coming to Baton Rouge 

A New York-based pizza chain is planning its first Louisiana location on Siegen Lane.  

Prince St. Pizza is taking over the old Blaze Pizza location, bringing its thick-crust Sicilian-style pizzas to the south. While the chain is quickly growing, they’re looking to keep their Big Apple roots through features like a special filtration system that mimics New York tap water. 

The new spot is expected to open in early 2026 at 6556 Siegen Lane.
