Recently my companies sales force and I were in Louisiana for a convention and with the use of a coupon tracked down Columbia Cafe. It was a $5.00 taxi ride from downtown and as it was 1/2 price wine night we needed one to get back to the Hilton. I was impressed to find a New Orleans style restaurant in Shreveport. It is a good find for anyone who happens upon this wireless gem.

My family and I started dining at Columbia Cafe shortly after they opened around five years ago.

On our way out of town Feb 18th we went to the Crew of Highland parade and stopped by Columbia Cafe to dine. Their menu was limited because the parade goes past the restaurant.
