Nestled in a strip center between Blue Angel Parkway and Five Flags Speedway on Pine Forest Road, you’ll find locally owned eatery Louisiana Lunchbox serving authentic Cajun cuisine like po’boys, crawfish, oysters, boudin and red beans and rice.
You might miss them if you don’t know where to look, keep an eye out for the big crawfish on the sign in their side window. Since they opened in late 2016 word has spread and they’ve grown through word of mouth. Although there’s almost always a line at lunchtime I’ve found the service to be quick and with a smile, and totally worth any wait as the food is prepared fresh to order.
The extensive menu at Louisiana Lunchbox includes a wide variety of delicious entrees like fried shrimp, fish, crawfish and oyster baskets in addition to a dozen different po’boys. There are also a few different burger choices as well as chicken salad and tacos.
The sides and soups are amazing and there are so many choices that making a decision can be tough.
As if you weren’t already having a hard time choosing what to order, they also serve authentic Louisiana style snowballs in a huge variety of flavors.
Check out the Louisiana Lunchbox at 7000 Pine Forest Road, they’re open Monday through Friday from 10:30 am to 7 pm and they’re closed on Saturday and Sunday. Give them a call at 850-361-1130 to place a carryout order.
This looks like an awesome place to eat – we WILL be trying it!! Thanks for the info!
This place is incredible I HIGHLY recommend the Fried Green tomatoes with the remoulade!!! The shrimp basket is a family favorite along with the Mahi Mahi and Pepperjack Grits! They also have an awesome brown bag special that hits the spot. The owners make you feel at home and it’s an awesome local business to support.
Love this place. They staff is very friendly and the food is to die for.
We love Louisiana Lunchbox!!! My husband is a native Cajun and he has been looking for a good Cajun restaurant in Pensacola since he moved here almost 30 years ago. We finally found it! It would be impossible to pick a favorite, but the boudin balls are AMAZING! No matter what you order, it is packed with flavor – like a party going off in your mouth. And the staff are down-home friendly. We love eating there every chance we get!
Always great service and really good cajun food! Been going there since they opened! <3
Their food is amazing!
It is an awesome place to eat! My husband and I drive from Mobile to have lunch on Friday! The food is fresh, flavorful and the service is excellent! If you haven’t tried them you are missing out!
