While Monroe and West Monroe continue to add businesses and restaurants and experience moderate economic growth we are not alone. Our neighbor to the west, the city of Ruston, continues to add new restaurants and other commercial developments to its community.

The Lodestar Steak House is under construction on the I-20 North side Service Road, at the previous location of the Ford auto dealership. This will be the first national steakhouse to compete with Rabb's, the very popular and very local steak restaurant that has been the preference of the locals for decades.
