i have only been there once, but it was nothing special. it is straight up a bar. nothing more and nothing less. you should have no problem going in there alone to grab a beer.

Palace Cafe- Temperature Lunch
They do it weekdays. Every time I have been, we had to ask the server what they were serving that day.

Middendorf’s
Middendorf's, the legendary seafood restaurant in Manchac that’s long been a favorite of Baton Rouge diners, was so heavily damaged from floodwaters generated by Hurricane Ike that the original 74-year-old building faces demolition. Karen Pfeifer, who took over the restaurant last year with her husband, Horst, says the original restaurant and the annex built in 1974 had four feet of floodwater. Pfeifer says she hopes to reopen the annex by October while deciding what to do with the original. Horst Pfeifer told the Times-Picayune that he would like to reopen the original structure at flood elevation with a new kitchen. "I'm going to work very hard to make sure Middendorf's is here for the next generation," he told the newspaper.
