Gaston’s BBQ & Beer - Donaldsonville (LA)

5 /5 Ryan Morgan: Friendly customer service and fire BBQ. What more can a man want? My favorite side was the loaded potato salad, and between the smoked sausage and brisket, the brisket hit the ball out of the park. Nice and fatty and smoky. Those baked beans are also delicious as well. Keep it up guys!

5 /5 Jet Set: Update- returned and found it even better than before. Easy parking, new reconstruction, and a really nice atmosphere. The restaurant is super clean and has plenty of seating. Unlike the other restaurants in town, they are consistently open for business and sincerely want that business. Usually, one of the owners is on hand staying on top of things. The staff is very friendly. They are open early for breakfast but primarily serve barbecue, salads, sandwiches, and sides. The menu offers a nice selection and dessert too. I found the food good and plan to return. The fact that its only about 10 minutes from Gonzales and is located in a historic building is a plus. It is a great place to meet for business and pleasure. Recommend.

5 /5 Jason Clark: I relocated from Chicago to Donaldsonville and moved into a house 5 minutes walking distance from Gaston’s. Moving from such a populated city to such a small town has its downsides.. the variety of restaurants available are minute. Out of all the diners in town though.. Gaston’s is the one to beat! Lydia and her son and husband both named David are cool people to chat to! They’re friendly and make it a comfortable environment. I’ve never had bad food from this place. The pork wings are amazing, when they’re able to get them though that is.. despite not always having our favorite, we enjoy everything we’ve tasted from Gaston’s! The potato salad is to die for!!

5 /5 Alexandria Benter: Southern Hospitality at Its Finest: 5 Stars for Gastons BBQ & Beer! Nestled in the historic heart of the city, this gem exceeded our expectations. Immediate, friendly greetings set the tone for exceptional customer service. The food? A delightful journey into authentic Southern cuisine. Meeting the owner, who took a genuine interest in our visit, added a personal touch. The restaurants ambiance, adorned with local art displays, enhanced our dining experience. So good, we returned for an amazing breakfast the next morning. Little did we know, Gastons is also an inn with charming rooms above – a hidden delight well be sure to explore on our next visit. Highly recommended!
