“I was meeting a friend for lunch and waiting outside of the restaurant. A couple came in that it was apparent that they had been out in the cold for awhile. The gentleman asked if I knew how much a cup of coffee would be? They shared some of their struggles and lack of funds. I wasn’t sure they served coffee. I entered Nom Noms and asked the waiter. He said they only have coffee on Sundays but they would make some. The couple asked if they had tea, they were given some iced tea. Nom Nom staff allowed the couple to sit down for a good hour, to warm up and enjoy not only one cup of coffee and tea, but refilled their cups a couple of times! Well done Nom Noms! Thank you for your hospitality to this couple!”

“The food is delicious when you can get him to make it correctly. When ordering ONLY this and that on tacos, it shouldn't also include the other ingredients you specifically asked not to be put on it. This is a constant issue that doesn't seem to be fixable in my case.”

“This was a wonderful experience. My server (Alfredo) was phenomenally kind. I traveled from West Virginia and this was my meal right before going back home. I come back to town every 2 months and I will absolutely be back. I ordered the Burrito Carnitas and it was PERFECT. It was just the perfect amount of flavor! I did leave off the guac but that was due to my allergy to avocado. Thank you so much for this experience!!!”

“This is my favorite place for snacks in food in Lafayette. I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place before. I would give this place a 10 out of 5 stars if I could. It is one of the last bastions of good, reasonably priced local food in Lafayette. The owners are so kind. They recognize us when we come in and are super accommodating. You can really see the hardwork and dedication that went into this business. While they might be a little slower than a McDonald's, their quality is unmatched by anything in the area. They are known for their Mangollada. It's delicious. The mango sorbet is homemade. The fruit is always ripe. One time, the owner felt that he didn't put enough sorbet in my cup so he gave me an entire extra scoop for free. Our favorites to order are the Mangollada, Fresas con Crema with vanilla ice cream, Al Pastor Tacos, and Tostiesquites. I wish I had better photos of the food but we always start eating it before I remember to grab a picture.”

“Another hidden gem, this is really hidden inside of a grocery store lol. We were in the area and stopped by to pick up some ingredients for home and noticed they had a little restaurant inside. Definitely authentic Mexican food and affordable. Food looked so good we forgot to take picture and dove right in. $20 for 2 tortas, 3 tacos, and 2 drinks. (Alot cheaper than fast food and ALOT better taste). Definitely keeping this place in mind next time in the Lafayette area.”

“It is what it advertises itself to be, that is, Midwestern Mexican cuisine. Think: queso, fritos, chicken. Comfort food, served in a comfortable place, by attentive and courteous staff. Portions are typical of a quick service restaurant, not gigantic, but not paltry. Would recommend for a quick and pleasing alternative to places like Taco Bell or Chipotle.”

25 Galaxy Mexican Restaurant

3.7 Good 43 Reviews

2601 Teal Road, Lafayette

“We just had the most amazing late night meal from Galaxy. I am so appreciative of them for being open late. Not only are they open late the food is amazing, the food came out super quickly and the staff was so friendly. We got a spread of tacos and Mexican Cokes. Everything was perfect and beyond any expectation you could have for ordering food after midnight in Lafayette. We will continue to come back again and again. If you want to support a great local business, this is it.”

“Five stars all the way! This place is an absolute gem. We tried the tacos, quesadilla, and tamales, and every single bite was incredible. The tacos were packed with flavor, the quesadilla was perfectly cheesy with a great crisp, and the tamale was easily one of the best I've ever had—so authentic and flavorful. Beyond the amazing food, the super friendly staff made the experience even better. They were welcoming, attentive, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Incredible food and top-notch service. We will definitely be back again.”
