Spirits is not your average restaurant. Since opening in the Garden District on the corner of Texas Avenue and Jackson Street in 1967, it has evolved into an Alexandria institution, a place where you can enjoy great food, great service and great live music in Central Louisiana.

Always fresh and unique, our menu features fresh gulf seafood, burgers, poboys, pasta dishes and our famous Spirits salads. Featuring free live music every Wednesday, we take pride in showcasing Central Louisiana's local musicians. Spirits also books national touring bands on Friday and Saturday nights. Sign up for our newsletter to stay updated.

Get the Spirits experience at your event. Whether for office lunches or wedding receptions, we have a full range of catering options and dishes to suit everyone's taste.

Always love Spirit's, all the food is GREAT. Drinks were good as well. Only complaint was that the live music was so loud, could hardly hear the other people at the table.

Food was great. Unfortunately some of my party didn't make ut and the server wasn't all too pleased about that. My water needed refilled and it didn't happen. One of our party got their meal almost at the end of when the rest of us were almost finished.

Food was mediocre at best, seemed there was too much on the menu. Service was okay, noise level was very high.

Had a good time with friends. Had a live band that particular night and once they started playing you couldn’t hear each other talk..it was loud. The food was ok but the appetizers were amazing!

Upon arrival the reserved table was not set up and ready. However, after 10 minutes it was done. Several other guests arrived that were unaccounted for and the staff quickly accommodated everyone. While my husband's steak was excellent, my daughter's garlic shrimp pasta was horrible. It had a fishy taste and was swimming in oil. I think the kitchen might have been overwhelmed with the amount of patrons at one time so some food came out cold.
