Roberto’s River Road Restaurant
Roberto's River Road Restaurant, located along the Mississippi River in the Sunshine Hamlet of St. Gabriel, has been an area favorite since its debut in 2001. This local favorite spot, which is rich in culture and has a laid-back vibe, is the ideal hangout for locals. The 1850s structure not only overlooks the river's historic levee system, but it also housed J.J. Laplace & Sons, an antique general store.
Today, the restaurant is recognized for specialties including eggplant crab cakes and the roasted duck St. Gabriel, which is served with mashed sweet potatoes and a currant jam. The Stuffed Catch of the Day, Shrimp Roberto, and Fish En Papillote, which is the catch of the day cooked in this traditional French style, are among the other seafood options. Roberto's River Road Restaurant is a Sunshine staple known for its courteous wait staff and a busy snug bar in the back.
