Madisonville is a tiny town in St. Tammany Parish that’s home to fewer than 1,000 residents. While some may skip over this town in search of a more bustling scene, there’s one hidden gem restaurant that’s serving up some of the best seafood in Louisiana, and it’s worthy of a road trip from any corner of the state.
Morton’s has been a neighborhood favorite ever since it opened in 1985.
