I used to work here when it first opened up and the managers thinks he can talk to someone any type of way.

Overpass Merchant was absolutely fantastic! Our daughters (twins) are freshmen at LSU, and this was our first time going to this amazing restaurant. Of course, one has to get the delicious cheese curds. We also got the truffle mac and cheese, which was delicious. I got the roast pork steam buns, which were lighter than air and just heavenly! Can't wait to go back for these again soon!

Overall we had a great time enjoying each others company. The burger and fries were fantasic but the chicken sandwhich was cooked way too fast causing a rubbery texture.The waiter/ bartender rushed us and made us feel a tad bit on edge…

The Overpass Merchant was a nice lunch restaurant. Tried the cheese curds, brussel sprouts, fried grouper sandwich and fries. The service was very prompt and perfect.

Frozen margaritas good & have a little kick. All the food was bursting with farm to table freshness and SO DELICIOUS. The grouper was PERFECT…tempura battered and YUMMY. I got it with the Thai peanut salad instead of fries. Husband got Brussels as his side…they were HUGE, slightly steamed and seared.SO GOOD. ?? ????We will be back.

Everything about this place is top notch and amazing. Daily specials and fresh seafood options are always a great choice. Not a large menu to choose from which I think is perfect. Only upgrade could be the parking situation.

Gave this place one last shot after another bad experience. Guess what? They failed yet again. Burger was overcooked and the waitress Cheryl never once came back to the table to ask anything. Not an inquiry on how the food was or can I get you a refill. We had to track her down and beg for the bill. The brussel sprouts were so salty and burnt they were inedible. The previous goof, which I will now proceed to NOT give them a pass on - there was a rusty wire still left in the brussel sprouts - documented and complained about. We had one single positive delicious meal in between that occasion and today. Never going back. Very sad. It's not that hard to give good service and appealing tasty food.

Cute environment on a Tuesday night during Christmas time. Split the Blackened Red Drum, the Fish Tacos and White Chocolate Bread Pudding. The Drum was outstanding. So incredibly flavorful. It stole the show. The bread pudding lacked white chocolate flavor and was over powered by a weird lemon flavor.

We went for a trivia night. Not the best venue sound-wise for that but we still had a fun time. Kitschy place to meet for drinks and a bite with friends. Drinks were very good and all the food I tried was delicious. The staff was courteous, friendly and efficient. Recommend the grouper sandwich. Loved the Asian fusion flavors. A definite repeat for me.Parking: Parking was a interesting with space tucked under the overpass but seemed adequate for the good number of patrons.

10/10! I highly recommend The Overpass Merchant. Jack our server was so attentive. I definitely recommend getting the Chili Crisp Broccoli & Cauliflower for an appetizer too. Will definitely be back soon.
