Longtime community business, Connie’s Grill, will be opening 11 a.m. on Saturday, July 15 at its new location at 2003 W. Airline Hwy Ste 2003 in LaPlace.

A St. John favorite for over 50 years, the business was forced to close at its Reserve location after Hurricane Ida damaged the building.  Now almost 2 years later, the restaurant is coming back strong.

It’s opening day menu will feature Connie’s fried chicken, hamburgers, fish or shrimp po boys, a few salad varieties and side dishes. The full menu will be posted inside the location.

Please note that cash may be needed in the event the credit card machine is not available.

Editor’s Note: L’OBSERVATEUR will have a more in depth story about the Connie’s reopening in its Summer edition of River Parishes Magazine.
