Louisiana - Steakhaus & Südstaaten-Restaurant in Erfurt

Food was great, service was great! I can recommend it to everyone 😃👌🏼

I have eaten here a number of times and would love to come back. It has never disappointed me. I have had the kangaroo burger and the crocodile burger with sweet potato fries before and have not regretted it for a moment. My girlfriend recently had the BBQ spare ribs and she said it was delicious too. Furthermore, the service is friendly and they have fair prices. Enter into an authentic piece and slightly more modern at the back with a long fake fireplace behind glass. In the warmer months there is also a cozy outdoor terrace where you can relax. Highly recommended.

Nice atmosphere, friendly and attentive service. The food was very good and plentiful. We tried a typical New Orleans dish ( jambalaya ) and loved it. Price-performance ratio was also right. Everything was perfect and can definitely be recommended.

Entrecôte is simply amazing. Highly recommended. Very good food and very friendly service. We'll be back.

Very, very good food, top-quality meat! Completely satisfied!

Nice and cozy restaurant, the service staff was very friendly and the food was very well prepared and presented. The steaks were very well grilled and seasoned, the side dishes were delicious. It's worth eating here, especially since the restaurant is very well located, just a few meters from the Krämerbrücke

Top restaurant. Food great!!!! Friendly and the food came super quickly😊. Gladly again👍🏻

Very good restaurant, nice and fast service, very good menu, the food was absolutely top. Very good value for money. We'd love to come back.

Super nice staff and the food was very tasty.

Classic steakhouse with delicious food and friendly service. The ambience wasn't really my thing, but the house is still recommended!

Very nice service... Good selection... The food came quickly and was really good... The wine recommendation for an American red wine was surprisingly good.. Thank you for the nice evening

I ate a very good steak here for a really fair price. Good service

This time we were here with friends... As always, we were greeted warmly and then served quickly. The meal was excellent! From the fish to the steak...everything was prepared perfectly and superbly! The dessert was just AMAZING! Our guests were also VERY enthusiastic and will definitely come back!

Super nice service! Very accommodating! Food a little overpriced but very good quality. The prices of the side dishes in particular should be adjusted. The seats were wooden armchairs which were not particularly comfortable, but ideal for people who are very overweight. The ambience was filled with seasonal decorations. (Valentine's Day for us)

Hervorragendes Steakhouse. Das Essen war großartig und der Service wirklich sehr gut. Das Würzfleisch war hausgemacht und das Steak war auf den Punkt, wie ich es wollte. Das Personal war superfreundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist mehr als angemessen.

Very friendly, attentive service. The food was very tasty

Very tasty food and great service. Our little family was well looked after. There was a children's menu, crayons to color the menu, extra cutlery and a high chair was already available. Disabled toilet and changing room available 👍

We went to the steakhouse spontaneously, without a reservation, and were warmly greeted and served. The food came quickly and was very tasty. We'd love to come back.

We have been guests at the "Louisiana" for many years. For us as Erfurt residents, one of the best restaurants in the city. We were never disappointed. The food was always exquisite and the staff friendly and accommodating. A special highlight this year was this year's Valentine's menu. The kitchen has once again outdone itself with the composition, preparation and presentation. A big compliment for the kitchen and thanks to the entire team around Melanie Walter for the tasteful decoration and good service.

The steak (rump, 400g) was perfectly fried and really good. Really great service. Gladly again on the next business trip

Dear Melanie, dear Thomas, thank you for the lovely evening. Food was very tasty, your employees were super nice. We'd love to come back. Sven and Sandra

Went here for the Velantins menu and it was super tasty! Service was very nice and we felt comfortable. Price/performance was great, clear recommendation!

Terrific. Not only the steak classics are at home here, but also sophisticated and modern creations. Great and very nice service

Highly recommended. Good food, nice service.

Louisiana has been around in Erfurt for so long, and yet I always walked past it, drove past it and never had it on my radar at all. When it came time to have dinner with the boss, who was staying in the hotel across the street, Louisiana was an obvious choice. So I called there with a bit of trepidation, as it had to be on the same day, and the nice colleague immediately promised me a table for 4. The friendliness continued from arrival to farewell. The food was absolutely great! Even your starter soup was absolutely great! Every colleague at the table has already visited several good restaurants and therefore has the right to judge, and everyone agreed that it is an absolutely great restaurant, with great dishes and great service. A short time later I went back with my partner so as not to withhold Louisiana from her. She was also absolutely thrilled with the good food and everything that went with it. So keep it up and see you soon🙋🏼‍♂️.

There were 4 of us and we all had starters and main courses. Every dish was very tasty and beautifully presented. Our service was so friendly and warm, you couldn't help but feel comfortable.

Yes, stop by, treat yourself and don't forget to try the punch.

Very tasty food, although some of the prices are unfortunately quite expensive. However, the appetizer platter Luisiana is recommended. This serves perfectly as a main course (even if it says starter). Unfortunately, the service left a negative impression right from the start. After we said our drinks, we kindly said that we had already found something to eat. The answer was a stroppy “The others got here before them, so they’ll probably have to be patient.” Ultimately, we were able to order our food after about 10 minutes. The ambience is okay. Some areas of the restaurant are a bit dated and have no steakhouse shame. Others are nice and newly furnished but the steakhouse shame stays away here too. However, as the evening progressed, the service was friendly and the food came after about 30 minutes.

Very friendly staff and very tasty food!

As soon as we walked in we were warmly welcomed and offered a place straight away. The food was super tasty and the portion was completely sufficient. The service was great. The restaurant can only be recommended.

The food and service were great, I can only recommend it!

We made a reservation by phone for February 1st, 2025 and asked three times if everything was understood and entered, and the answer was yes. Reservation not found on arrival and no alternative. It's a shame but don't try it again.

Friendly staff and quality of food very good.

I was a guest twice in 2024 and was thrilled both times. The atmosphere is very inviting, the food was excellent, and I felt completely at home. Particularly noteworthy is the attentive and friendly staff, which makes the stay even better. I'll definitely be back!

Staff super friendly, courteous and attentive. Ambiance is super nice and cozy, not too loud and not uncomfortably quiet either. Food was okay (I'm pregnant and my taste buds are a bit worn out). It was tasty but it lacked seasoning. The selection is huge and very authentic, which is exactly why we wanted to go there. When I saw gumbo on the menu I immediately went for it. With the gumbo, the meat and shrimp were unseasoned but the sauce was delicious and ultimately the authentic spices were missing. Crocodile meat was also super tasty, but there was also a lack of spices but they got an extra spice. Would eat there again because we felt very comfortable and would continue to explore the menu. Definitely recommended, just to try it out.

During our visit we were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff and served attentively. The steak with potatoes and sour cream we ordered was cooked to perfection and of the highest quality. The side dishes complemented the dish perfectly and rounded off the taste experience. The restaurant not only impresses with its culinary offerings, but also with its atmospheric ambience that invites you to linger. For lovers of Creole and Cajun cuisine, the Louisiana Steakhouse is an absolute must. We look forward to our next visit and can fully recommend this restaurant.

We had lunch here. We loved the atmosphere and the cheeseburger was delicious. Highly recommended. Thank you for the great service!

The steakhouse is located near the Krämerbrücke. The staff is very friendly and it is very important to them that the guests have a good time. Great care is taken to ensure that the guests are satisfied. The food was very tasty. The house has a good selection of dishes. The dessert was great. Highly recommended. Immediately again.

One of the nicest restaurants in the city. The starter for 2 was really good for the price, which was surprising. Unfortunately the ribs were completely dry and overcooked, but this criticism was received kindly, the mistake was immediately acknowledged and re-delivered within 5 minutes and then really excellent. The main course was two steaks, mine couldn't be done better in terms of cooking (medium), the other was medium rare, but the quality of the meat was so good that it was also tender as butter and therefore very good. Unfortunately we couldn't eat dessert, but the portions were great. A small point of criticism, you can remove the silver skin from the ribs before cooking. Makes it more tender and the guest can remove the meat from the bone more easily. 😁 In summary, you have to say, price performance is more than good in the city center of Erfurt. We'd love to come back. 👍

Guys, go there if you want to eat well and experience friendly service. It is better to reserve a table. I wish you a pleasant experience. Enjoy it.

I haven't eaten so well for a long time and the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is great, you just feel comfortable. Definitely again on your next visit to Erfurt. Simply great!

Very tasty food and extremely attentive service! Recommended

Unfortunately I'm speechless, I'll never eat there again and I can't recommend it I won't pay any more money for this

All employees are always very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is very pleasant and cozy. Everything clean and tidy. The food is very tasty, everything is fresh and beautifully prepared. We have been here several times and always enjoy coming back.

We've been coming here again and again for 15 years. This time too, the food was perfect and the wine was excellent. The competent service rounds everything off...see you next year

Absolutely delicious and good at fair prices

An incredibly lovely team will prepare you a truly wonderful evening with excellent food. Every time I come with high expectations and every time they are exceeded. Everything is just right here. For me one of the best restaurants in this city!

It was great class again! The service was incredibly warm and really friendly. The food was cooked to perfection and incredibly tasty. Really recommended!! I had original gumbo and my husband had steak. I love this kitchen!!

Very tasty food and nice, attentive service!

We spontaneously got a table at your place on Saturday evening and were able to enjoy delicious food and great service. We were absolutely thrilled and look forward to seeing you next time!

Despite being fully booked last Saturday, we were still able to accommodate 2 people. Despite the obvious rush, the service staff were very courteous and friendly, the food was perfect! We will be happy to come back if we can find a place again.

Great atmosphere, great staff and a very good price-performance ratio! The food was first class and left nothing to be desired! Only recommended! A little tip: reservations are advisable, it is well attended.

This steak house is worth every visit! Staff is so nice and attentive. The stakes are to die for. The portion sizes may surprise you. Loved it there, will definitely come again and try the Gumbo and the Jambalaya.

You come in, are greeted warmly and simply feel comfortable. The food was great, the staff were great. Even spontaneous allergy announcements were responded to!!! I give that a lot of credit to the service! Unfortunately the food was gone too quickly to take photos 🙈 Simply speaks for the place!

Very, very pleasant atmosphere and a harmonious concept. The staff is friendly, always available and very attentive. The dishes are very tasty and well prepared. Fresh and decorated with love. The meat can be prepared as desired. MY meat was on point medium. This restaurant is an absolute insider tip and I can only warmly recommend it. A 10 out of 10.

Delicious spare ribs, friendly service. Unfortunately, the surcharge list for mayonnaise, ketchup and sour cream is unnecessarily high.

Very cozy restaurant. Since I'm flying to Florida in February, I've already gotten into the culinary mood. The ranch steak with beans was delicious.

The food was delicious and the service was very nice. We ate twice.

Nice restaurant, good service even for my wife with a wheelchair

This restaurant can only be recommended. The service staff was always friendly and very attentive, the food was extremely tasty and plentiful and the dessert was heavenly. An all around lovely evening.

Extremely beautiful. Went here for the first time on a recommendation and were totally thrilled. Super nice staff from the start. The food was amazing and is recommended. There will definitely be a reunion

Sehr freundliches Personal, engagiert, aufmerksam und immer am Ball. Leckere Südstaatenküche - egal ob Steak, Beilagen wie Pernod-Spinat und Kreolische Kartoffeln, Jambalya oder Burger - alles liebevoll arrangiert, üppig und schmackhaft gewürzt. Auch unsere 4 verschiedenen Desserts waren eine Sünde wert. Wenn wieder Erfurt, dann wieder Louisiana.

Very good food, very good service

A very nice restaurant and a very nice team. 👍 The food tasted very good and you didn't have to wait that long for it.

Very solid steakhouse. The large steaks are definitely great, but you should stay away from the smaller ones. For us, the small versions were just tough. Otherwise there's everything related to steak, but more European style than American.

We were there for lunch with 5 people. The ambience is very nice and the decoration fits in very well with the theme. The music that is played is also harmonious and not too loud. The food was very good and there was something for everyone. We had announced that we would have a small child with us. It would be almost touching to prepare for this. There was already a high chair at the table and the children's menu was also a coloring picture. There was also a cup with colored pencils already there. Simply great. We were very satisfied and full at the end. The waitresses were all very friendly and service-oriented. A clear recommendation from me.

Steak below average, good service, decent burgers

Nice place to have dinner. Suitable for bigger groups as well, as it is quite big.

When I told a woman from Erfurt that I had an appointment in Louisiana that evening, her spontaneous reaction was: "They're good." Fortunately, this was confirmed in the evening. The service was friendly and attentive. The facilities were clean and comfortable. For me, it is important for a relaxed choice of food: the allergen information is on the menu. My chosen Alabama chicken was pleasantly seasoned. I'd love to come back.

Always an experience, this year also with fish - here a tuna steak on leaf spinach with Pernod pumpkin ratatouille and a super good garlic bread 👌 Service as always, friendly and perfect

Everything was great, the table was specially set because of our 8 year relationship that we celebrated there. Only recommended. Everything was very tasty and the staff was very nice. Gladly again

Food was great, service was very friendly and quick. I can only say order beforehand otherwise things can get tight.

Food was super delicious and absolutely recommended! Service at the table was super friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, you weren't greeted or farewelled by the staff behind the bar when you came into the restaurant or when you left, so unfortunately 1 point was deducted, something like that is simply not appropriate!

Food tasted good, visually beautifully presented, unfortunately some of the side dishes were only lukewarm, service and ambience were great. Overall recommended

Nice portion sizes and very attentive service. However, getting a table without a reservation is like gambling.

Unfortunately disappointed 😞 Appetizer plate was ok, although onion rings and potato wedges were sticky and cold. Burger was also almost cold, salad dressing was run of the mill for my taste, fries were not brought at all. It's a real shame, such mistakes shouldn't happen with the prices.

To praise Louisiana is to carry owls to Athens. I've been a regular for maybe twenty or more years and I'm just completely amazed that I've never written about this restaurant before. In addition to all the other impeccably prepared dishes, the steaks are a revelation. The success of my special requests proves the high quality of the meat, as well as the skill of the chefs! Today, outside of the luxury price level, you have to accept that some of the side dishes come from the convenience corner. None of this would be possible without attentive and expert service that remains the same over the years. The boss and boss are still not too keen on this and, in addition to the excellent work, they are also pleasant people to talk to. Rooms of different styles as well as a wonderful terrace appeal to different guest wishes. Have to go again. Stay as you are!

Spare ribs are very good, I used fries instead of wedges. Wasn't a problem :-) Fries were crisp and fresh. The Cole Slow was a little too thick and not cut finely enough, but it was still tasty. Food 5 stars and everyone was very nice and attentive. The extra BBQ sauce didn't take long and had to be requested again. Therefore only 4 stars for the service. Thank you to Louisiana :-)

Perfect steak, super friendly service and reasonable prices. NOTE 1

The restaurant is located in the immediate vicinity of the famous Krämerbrücke. Here you can find excellent food at reasonable prices and courteous service. The kitchen and bar also make customer requests beyond the menu possible. The ambience invites you to linger. However, you should make a reservation in advance, as all tables can often be occupied even during the week - a reservation is mandatory on the weekend.

Great restaurant. Great food. Everything fine.

I celebrated my birthday with family in Louisiana. The service and the food were great. Everything was fine. As always an experience.

Jeder Besuch ist mindestens so gut wie die letzte. Früher waren wir immer als Paar im Louisiana, jetzt als Familie und beides funktioniert super. Die Kinder werden genauso gut behandelt wie die Erwachsenen. Alle MitarbeiterInnen sind so nett und liebevoll, die Steaks sind perfekt und die Wein extrem gut. Ich kann nur wärmstens empfehlen.

Dishes that aren't everyday but all the more delicious...staff hovering inconspicuously around you and keeping an eye on everything - basically anticipating your every wish, in a cozy atmosphere...so we had a great evening. The visit to the Louisiana Steakhouse enriches our Erfurt trip enormously.

Unexpectedly and spontaneously got a table for 12 people! The service was perfect and super friendly and the food was absolutely delicious!

Perfect staks with a large selection of everything, nice atmosphere, nice staff

Really great restaurant, great food, very friendly staff. Perfect place for a great evening!!👍

Food and service are first class.

Super tasty, meat really on point. Seasoned, grilled and served simply top. Our waitress loves her job. Food was there and people immediately asked if everything was OK.

The two of us showed up there on a Saturday evening without a reservation and a table was organized for us despite the house being full. Despite the full house, the wait for the food was justifiable. The food (gumbo and kangaroo burger) was very tasty and the portions were filling. Unfortunately I had to skip dessert. The service staff was very friendly and accommodating and also available for a quick chat. Conclusion: absolutely recommended!

Despite a reservation, we had to wait 35 minutes and the trainee was made to look at the bar. Unfavorable. Otherwise very good

You feel comfortable here... Great ambience with nice music in the background. The staff is consistently friendly and competent. The finest food 👍 We ate a gumbo (southern dish) and a kangaroo burger once...we loved it. The grilled one at the neighboring table also looked great and it obviously tasted good 😄 The prices are moderate. Reservations are recommended on weekends.

Celebrated a birthday for two at Luisiana. Very great food, super nice service. Nothing was left to be desired. Starter, main course and dessert, various drinks. We were extremely satisfied.

I was at Louisiana again yesterday, but unfortunately I wasn't impressed with the service this time. The portions of the main courses have always been more than sufficient, but unfortunately that wasn't the case with the Filet Louis dish yesterday. I then spoke to the service person. I found your answer cheeky and inappropriate. "For others, the portion is sufficient. You can also order an appetizer and a dessert." For a main course that costs €28, I find this so inappropriate.

Wonderful meal.very nice staff. We can only recommend it!

I loved it a lot, very delicious food and a price according to the quantity (very good quantity) and the waiter was respectful... we will return!

Very competent and friendly team! Completely relaxed and cozy atmosphere despite being full! The food was great. Louisiana will be one of my must-dos in the future when I'm in Erfurt. See you in the morning!

The Louisiana is a beautiful restaurant with the best food, great ambience and very friendly and attentive staff.

Like every time, it was just great. Very very tasty. Super nice staff. Always my pleasure

The food was tasty, but it wasn't anything special. Unfortunately I found the service to be very poor. We were very rarely asked if everything was okay. We also asked for a receipt and the lady was very unfriendly. In a very rude tone she said “you have to print this out”. The sound plays the music. Well, you can explain it nicely. You should also be able to print out an entertainment receipt.
