The Lighthouse Bar & Grill

We stayed at the rv park for a week and frequented the restaurant/​bar. The food is fantastic. Truly top notch preparation. The service has been fantastic or so so. I watched the bar tender make milk shakes Monday night that were beautiful with whipped cream and a cherry on top. I told my son he should get on and the bar tender Thursday afternoon barely blended the shake and there was nothing on top. Our Ponchartrain Punch was blended Monday and not blended Thursday. The punch was great either way.

Nice watering hole and restaurant right at the RV Park. Drink specials were priced right and the Gumbo and Crawfish bisque were very tasty. If in the area well worth a visit.

A real surprise. The Sunday drink special was a Bloody Mary. Honestly the best Bloody Mary I’ve had in years. We enjoyed the brisket and crawfish out on the porch. Ashley served us and even gave us a lesson on how to eat crawfish for the first time! Amazing!

We went here for the first time today and sat at the bar. The bar tender was super friendly and introduced us to the regulars and several people that worked there. Great service at the bar.
We weren’t too hungry so we jut got the special called the salty dog and an order of garlic fries. This garlic fries are your standard fries cooked perfectly and tossed in garlic butter. Very tasty. The salty dog special was three slices of French bread topped with smoked pork, salad greens, and five fried oysters, finished with remoulade sauce. The smoked pork was delicious, however there was not much in this dish. The oysters were large and fried perfectly. The batter was seasoned nicely and they were not greasy at all. It was a great dish, but the small portion of pork stood out in a bad way.
The view and atmosphere are really nice. Yes it’s on the industrial canal, not the lake but it’s still a great atmosphere. We live close so will return to try the rest of the menu.
Of note: they run an RV park and rent condos that overlook the water. The condos actually look pretty nice. The pool on premisses (right outside the door of the restaurant) is only for people who are staying on the grounds.

This an out of way bar and restaurant. Good food; BBQ, New Orleans classics like Gumbo, Jambalaya, and crab cakes.
The crab cakes are very good and generously sized. You also get one side, quite good sized. The Mac and cheese is great!
Live music on weekends, early at 6pm! Locals and folks like us staying at the RV park. It is packed tonight.

Was a very surprising experience. I didn’t expect to like the food since it was a restaurant in the marina and RV park, however the food was great. The food all tasted relatively fresh and cooked properly. Everything tastes good and it was a good lay out and location.

Pretty neat place to say the least. Located in a RV Park/​Condo area right by the Industrial Canal. They have live music several nights a week. It looks really cool on the inside and over looks part of the canals. Wife and I saw an Alligator swimming out back on our last trip. Food is good maybe a little over priced. Definitely worth a trip as there is not much like this in the area.

We stayed in one of the houses at Pontchartrain Landing and were pleasantly surprised by the Lighthouse Grill. Groups of us would stop in 1 – 2 times a day.
One waitress couldn’t be bothered, but the rest were nice and helpful.
The food was good. You don’t expect that at a place where there is a captive audience, but it was really good. We always knew we had a place to walk to if our cooking didn’t turn out or if we just needed cocktails int he morning.

This is the bar at Pontchartrain Landing and it actually does have a rotating light above the bar like a lighthouse. This is a patio bar so its all outside and there are a lot of tables and chairs along with the bar stool seating. There is also a pool and hot tub adjacent to this space so you can enjoy those amnesties as well. There is always an interesting mix of people in this space and its definitely a change of pace from the usual New Orleans bar scene.
