“Delightful Arnis. Maned by three employees and they can hold their own. Little busy on Thursday afternoon. Boys from fire department were in as well. Placed order, and didn't seem like a long wait. Food was hot. Burnt my tongue on the pizza.Good experience during this visit. Will return and tell friends.

Parking: Restaurant share lot with gas station and liquor store.“

“The Vegan Cheese Lady Cafe is a gem in Lafayette! Julianne makes all of her delicious cheeses and vegan meats from scratch — no processed burger patties in sight — a refreshing change of pace from the typical “vegan option” at most restaurants. The cheese platter is beautifully presented and a delicious snack in its own right as a starter to your meal. The Reuben is also a favorite! Oh and don’t forget to pair your meal with a local beer or one of the delicious ice tea options. The cafe itself, in the heart of downtown Lafayette, is cozy and charming, featuring exposed brick and a rotating gallery of local art. The proprietors are friendly and welcoming. It’s great to have this amazing spot right here in town!“

“I come here at least once a week to get coffee before studying and I’ve never been disappointed. The coffee is great, lovely atmosphere of the Union hotel, and the baristas are always kind and efficient. Shoutout to Liz, Daija, Daniel, and Gigi for always making the experience great!!!“

“Delicious food, nice atmosphere, and fantastic wait staff! (very attentive, but not hovering... perfect!) My Seafood Pasta was spicy & soooo good!! (I had to use a shot of lemon juice to keep my lips from burning, but I loved everything about it!! 😁😘) The strawberry margaritas were so good. I do recommend having reservations, as the whole place filled up quickly, but we got in right away! Thank you, Easter End Grill! Our low-key anniversary was great! #Shy&Jess“

If you haven't been you need to go! The owner Jeff is a stand up guy, and his staff is always on point. All the servers are amazing! If you need to break the streak of being less than satisfied with an out to eat experience, Legacy is the place for you! Doug E Fresh“

“This was my first time visiting Azzip and, I gotta say, I'm really sad that there isn't a location closer to where I live! I got the gluten free crust & it was absolutely top tier. I can't say enough good things; the menu is so fun, the pizza is delicious and the staff were nice.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crust with its own pan.

“Superb service was friendly and welcoming. Ube creme brulee is to die for! My son ordered that, and I ordered Strawberry matcha latte with house made strawberry puree, and a side of espresso. We will be back to get drinks for road trip back home tomorrow, and I will mix my espresso shots with the Ube creme brulee. Yum!“

“I will start with the good news about recent visit last Saturday. The Bloody Mary's are excellent and a great value. We had the Pesto Melt and the Mamma Mia and they tasted very good. That is where the good news ends.

On our prior visit we had a female server who was attentive and knowledgeable. She got a very large tip.
This past visit not so much. Our server was very nice but he was not a good server for the following reasons.

- He was spending lots of time doing other things than attending to tables; like break down outdoor patio.

- He told us the sides and it was all potatoes; we asked if we could sub a salad. And he asked what dressings. For the cost, salad may rank among the worst I have been served at a comparable eatery. It was served on a six-inch plate with 8-10 pieces of romaine lettuce tips (whole), there was a teaspoon of diced onions and tomatoes, and a cucumber cut in half. Difficult to eat and totally overpriced. I always take pictures of food when dining out and wish I had taken one of that paltry side salad.

- We asked for those salads ahead of our sandwiches and waited and waited and had to flag down a different server to get our salads. It turned out it would have probably happened because we did not get our first sandwich until a 30 minute wait -- and the dining room as about 20% filled so why the wait.

- Then we waited and waited and waited for our pesto melt, the server finally came over and said "there was a mix-up in the kitchen" which means he did not place our order same time with other sandwich.

- And like many restaurants in town, the acoustics are terrible. It is like being back in my high school cafeteria. Not pleasant on the ears.

- So when we got our bill we saw that the salad was $4, not $3.50. There was the $.75 upcharge for blue cheese dressing. I told the server we should have been told these things when placing our order. To his credit, and based on the long wait for the pesto sandwich, he took half off the price of sandwich and took off the blue cheese dressing. He got a good tip but nowhere near the one the server the previous visit got.

Bottom line. There are many places to eat in Lafayette and will probably not return to LBK. Some advice; train your servers on how to take and place orders with the kitchen. If doing a side salad for $4 make it look like it is worth the price; it is not. And charging for dressings? Who does that in town? Salads come with salad dressing and should not be an upcharge, or at least inform the guest.

Vegetarian options: The Mamma Mia and Pesto melt are really good; the sausage on the Mamma Mia is plant-based and tastes like Italian sausage.“

“Ordered a rare steak and actually received a rare steak, huge thing for a Midwest restaurant. The steak butter they used was great as well. Salad was fresh, no water in the bottom, or soggy lettuce. Staff was extremely pleasant. 10/10 experience. I drive past hunters all the time, and actually had time to stop in this afternoon, will be back for sure.“

“5 stars food was so good.staff were helpful. Very clean. Fast service.“

“The staff in Lafayette are so very kind and friendly. I stop every day on my way to work, they always have my smoothie ready for me, and every single day at least one employee gets me smiling. I think they definitely make my 12 hour shift ahead of me seem better.😊I truly appreciate them.“
