Louisiana Purchase Brings Bites from The Big Easy to North Park


“Laissez le bon temps rouler” at Louisiana Purchase! We couldn’t be more thrilled to represent this new concept by Grind & Prosper Hospitality. Situated on the corner of Louisiana Street and University Avenue in North Park, their intimate dining space was inspired by the charm and character of New Orleans, with creative and warm touches in a chic environment.

Following the opening of their previous concept, WhipHand American Brasserie + Beer Bank in East Village, G&P owners turned their attention to Louisiana Purchase, as did the AltStrat team. While the restaurant group focused on interior design, architecture buildout and menu concepts, our social media, PR and design team created a buzz around its opening.

The rotating menu, which is dedicated to showcasing only the best seasonal ingredients, features big and bold flavors from the region. Executive Chef Quinnton “Q” Austin recently relocated to San Diego from New Orleans, bringing with him an exciting wealth of knowledge and experience in the culinary melting pot that defines Southern cuisine. Among his noteworthy creations thus far are Crab Stuffed Chicken Skin with Truffle Goat Cheese, North Park Gumbo Yaya and his savory Alligator Andouille Cheesecake.

The restaurant also yields a must-visit cocktail bar, with a menu created by beverage director Rob McShea. It focuses on quality and craftsmanship, with modern plays on classics. Staples include the Ramos Gin Fizz and the Sazerac, in addition to sharable punches.

The food and beverage program at Louisiana Purchase, designed to mirror the exuberance of New Orleans, will be a fun treat for the senses, ever-evolving to turn first-time guests into regulars that keep coming back for more. In mid-April, expect to find a new brunch experience with Cajun and Creole-inspired breakfast items dished out every Saturday and Sunday.

Louisiana Purchase is located at 2305 University Avenue, San Diego CA 92104 and is open Wednesday through Sunday, 4:00 p.m. - midnight. Brunch hours coming soon. louisianapurchasesd.com
