“I would like to give Popeye’s on Verot in Lafayette LA a 5 star rating. The service was quick & the chicken was hot & fresh. Jeff is the manager who is very professional, personable, & courteous. He runs a tight ship!!! Kudos…“

“My favorite Chik-Fil-A location! I love to use the app and earn rewards. The staff here is always friendly and goes above and beyond. A sweet young lady here encouraged me to try the hashbrown rounds with Chik-Fil-A sauce, and wow! Great tip! Delicious! I don't have to check my bag before I leave either. They always get it right. Love, love, love!“

“amazing chicken strips! huge! flavor full, handmade to order! I love that Chef Jason is always creating new things!❤️😋“

“Love to treat my son to 5 Guys!
Mrs. Pam is such a pleasure... even my 3 yr old grandson remembers her every time he goes.

Hot and tasty burgers... the best fries... and great service! It's why we go all the time.“

“Snowballs are absolutely amazing!! The sweetest lady ever & gives Bible vs on Sundays gave ours a day early because she had it out. The kids enjoyed theirs also.

Rainbow, strawberry cheesecake delight, clear bubble gum, Wonder Woman & grape“

“Tiffany was absolutely amazing! She made our visit to Louisiana very enjoyable. The store was very clean and fresh. Our food was out in a timely manner and so delicious. The general manager is doing a wonderful job. We’ll definitely be back our next visit.“

“While the food is usually good (most of the time soggy if you’re ordering from the drive thru) don’t ever expect to get an extra sauce. It seems every time I go they never give me the extra sauces I pay for. Canes is really nothing without their sauce which is why it’s so important to receive it. It’s annoying because not only am I paying almost an extra dollar for 2, but it seems more common to not receive a sauce than to get one. Most of the employees are really nice but there’s the handful that have an attitude or don’t say one word to you. This really is one of the better Canes, but I just wish it was guaranteed I get my extra sauce.“

“Everything in my plate was 100% delicious 😋 Amazing and friend workers!!! Plate was full!!!“

“I was impressed. For a fast food restaurant, the place was very clean, plus they gave top-notch service. The drive thru is just as good. There is plenty of parking for regular and handicap. If you like Mac and cheese, you should give it a try. I can see why the lines are so long at the drive-thru. But, lt moves rapidly.“

“It would be 5 stars if this location of Cane's wasn't so incredibly stingy with the syrup in the soda machine. I have had unflavored soda here more times than I have heard the McFlurry machine is broken. Please get the soft drinks up to par.“

“First time here after seeing a friend post on Facebook. It was so good and the staff was really nice. Got the sesame Chicken and beef and broccoli and fried shrimp with fried rice. Everything was excellent and well priced. The amount of food I will be eating on this for a few days unless my daughter beats me to it!“

“Piper did an outstanding job!“

“I met my family for lunch today after I had gotten off of work early. The last time I had food at this location (drive thru), there was an issue with it. I waited a while until I returned. The same issue happened again today. The manager, Shawn, immediately came to apologize to me at the table. He had fresh food come out to me super quick. He also returned to check on us, gave us a gift card, and said that he hoped we would return to give this location another chance. A bad situation that was turned into a positive one.. thanks to Shawn for effectively displaying great service recovery! I will definitely be returning!“

“This place is always a real treat! I enjoyed the food almost as much as I enjoyed the companionship with me! I liked the person I was with a bunch, too, so that says a lot! There, unfortunately, is not a location anywhere near where I live, so it truly is a treat for me to enjoy some Arby's! Everytime I taste one of their sandwiches I am instantly transformed to that summer I spent exploring the Virginia coast and beyond with my family as a young teen. These are the kind of sandwiches that definitely can spark some memories if you're like me and have eaten at Arby's all over the country throughout the decades that have passed! #the90s“

“Freddy's is consistently a fantastic dining option. We visit this place often and have always had a great experience. The staff is incredible—always friendly, smiling, and eager to assist. The food is fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant! It’s one of our top choices for lunch after church!“

“I’ve been a Taco Bell die hard ever since my mom ate Taco Bell when I was in her womb. I was literally born with Taco Bell addiction. This is the only place I found to be consistently better with ingredients and portions across-the-board when compared to price. Roughly half the time I eat anywhere else I usually wind up leaving thinking “man, I should’ve just got Taco Bell because I’d be the same level of full for way less money”. Out of the 10 times or so that I’ve eaten here, I’ve never once left with that feeling. Bravo El Pollo Loco, bravo.“

“Traveling and I was craving French fries. I saw Freddy's mear the hotel. I've never been, but the drive-thru was empty, so why not. Ordered the fries, took about 4-5 minutes since they started cooking a fresh batch, no problem. They were professional and courteous. Once I tasted the fries, I was upset that I didn't order the large size. Crispy, hot, and they didn't have that greasy, artificial after taste. I can only imagine how the steak burgers taste.

Parking: Nice size parking, and it's located in front of a strip mall, so additional parking all around.“

“Staff was awesome and friendly even with a line of about 15 of us food was awesome strawberry shake was delicious and 6 yr old grandson loved the cherry on top made him feel special ty

Kid-friendliness: Grandson enjoyed ordering his own food“

“Ordered a large fried shrimp combo in the drive thru, received the order and noticed how heavy it was and pulled into a shaded area at Sam's. Opened up the container and counted 14 good sized butterflied shrimp with tarter sauce, salad and a good portion of fried rice. To me, well worth $13.“

“This location is our go to for lunch. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is top tier. We come here so often that they know us on a first name bases. My go to is the Engineer on Gluten free bread. There aren’t many restaurants in the area that have gluten free options. This place is a MUST try.“

“I’m nearly always happy with the food at Sonic Drive-In. I typically order on the app and service is quite fast.

Parking: It’s a stall system, the original curbside service.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu and fun choices.“

“Lydia D’s is hands down one of the best restaurants on the Northside.“

“The subs are very generous with toppings. Bread is fresh. Staff are working very hard and are pleasant. I highly recommend this place. Keep up the good work.“

“While I was waiting on my food. The cashier was very nice I think she said her name was Catlin and handed me a cup to get something to drink while I wait.. the food did not take long to make maybe 10 minutes. 10/10“

“Lemme tell ya…. 5 stars all day. Maddy makes this restaurant worth it. I keep ordering through the mobile app and have had a few issues with it here and there. She took time out (when it wasn’t busy) to walk me through a few of the issues and how to avoid them. She is kind and has an obvious wish to make sure her clients leave happy. If she isn’t running the place and teaching customer service 101 to your team, I’d highly advise you giving her a position that goes to all locations and giving them a course. Honestly, id go to Ruth’s Chris on a weekly basis if she was our waiter. Keep her, she’s a good one.“

“Let's face it human servers are slowly being phased out so our interactions with someone behind The counter is few and far between. Personally I always aimed to crack them up. Makes me wonder if it's still McDonald's when smiles no longer greet each other.“

“A perfect fusion of American classics and Louisiana dishes cooked over open wood-fueled flame , served up in a comfortable and modern concept. Came on recommendation from two different locals who said this was the best restaurant in Lafayette. We were not disappointed. Reservations were needed, but the hostess was able to accommodate us by the kitchen. It worked out GREAT. Was able to see the chef, Sullivan, and his crew perform their magic on each of the dishes. Every member of the staff was very friendly - from the hostess, servers, chef, our waiter Zach, and the general manager Aaron. Just get two orders of the Roasted Oysters to start. Trust me on this one. Even the Mac and Cheese was delicious! The creme brulee was delectably perfect. Get it! If cocktails are your jam, you won't be disappointed with the selection. My only gripe was that it was very loud on a Saturday at 7 PM. Felt like it was a night club. Made conversation challenging at times. If you need to change diapers, the unisex bathrooms will have accommodations for your baby. A thoughtful touch. Will definitely return if I ever come back to Lafayette.“

“Great people to work with. I work overnight mostly on weekends so if you know whataburger like I do, it's packed, full and full of entertainment. Plus it's on the Northside of Lafayette and the Northside is the best side. Sometimes the customers can be challenging and there's other guest that are very understanding. all in all, I love this job and the people I work with. I love the excitement and the rush that comes along. but please drunk folks that decide to get in my drive thru, stop Changing ur orders as soon as yu get to my window. and if I can't hear yu ordering on speaker maybe cut ur car off or get the person sitting in the driver seat to order for yu. no judgements but dam. And we DONOT SELL FISH BURGERS BRUH.“

“We stopped by this location. Place was nice and clean. The employees here greeted me right away. They were very nice. I ordered the 7 dollar value meal, which has 3 pieces of chicken strips, fries, drink, and a sundae. Thats a good deal for somone like me who is on a budget. I've eaten at a lot of places. The sizes of the strips were good, everything fresh. I can't believe I never came here before. I will be returning.“

“I have a very busy 4 year old adhd/autistic daughter And had been travelling for hours.
I was the only one in the restaurant and because my daughter is very busy doesn't communicate well. I don't bring her in a lot of places But because it was empty I thought It would be ok..
Everyone Was nice and I let the front desk Workers know that she doesn't sit still very much. And then I would put her in the corner where she wouldn't bother anyone...
Someone They're with the ability to Control the noise (radio) I can only assume had some kind of knowledge of children that are not "normal"..
Someone turned the radio down and My daughter seemed to settle a bit more..
To that person I say
Thank you for noticing!“

“This is the best and authentic Mexican food I ever had here in Lafayette and the owners are amazing people. If you’re looking for a real Tacos this is the right place!“

“Quick service and great customer service. McDonalds and Burger King needs to take lessons“

“The KFC I went to on Johnston was wonderful. The employees they had in there really helped me out service was impeccable there restaurant was clean and they were having fun so it bought my spirt up. Overall a great experience and I will definitely go back.“

“For me whenever I would go to a store or fast food joint or a restaurant I have a thing for wanting every interaction with another person to be as positive & entertaining as possible especially in a work setting. If you make someone smile or laugh within seconds of meeting them it's an amazing thing. The weight of the world or any metaphorical expression that would apply here is gone...their worries, doubts, rather or not she'll get the rose tonight in the final episode show of whatever you like to watch I don't know I like documentaries but to each their own I say, if they forgot to turn off etc.....in that briefest of moments it feels like you're not at "work" you know you're at the game with guys realizing the S for LSU was out of place in your shirts off squad ritual or a bon fire with all the familiar faces through the years....it's a form of feeling free that's immeasurable & the beauty of it all is, it's contagious. So to all McDonalds employees that I won't have the opportunity to make lol out loud I'm talking embarrassingly loud you would probably snort involuntarily so maybe it's for the best cause you'll never live that inside work joke I tell you & if I was a regular getting to meet a new cashier everyday....the kiosk doesn't have a sense of humor I've tried it's a hard nut to crack. (If you're still here yes he said that and yes it's ok to be laughing. Since we are slowly losing the opportunity of face to face interactions with each other & for someone like myself who has issues with PTSD, depression it's those moments that provides a true natural remedy for when we are down & force ourselves to be sociable where we all act "fine" but are screaming inside...getting someone to laugh or smile is when I feel free. So I thought why not get as many to laugh as I can in one shot. If you laughed or came close that counts too hit that thumbs up....take care.)“

“Hi this is for the manager. There is a man by the name Erik Bowie who has paid someone to put secret small internet cameras outside to watch every where that I go. This is illegal. There are tools that you can use to detect this. His address is 115 Erik street Lafayette Louisiana. This is not the only the business that i am informing. You can contact me on 337-534-5442 and ill give you more info. Thanks and have a nice day“

“The wait was worth it . Hot and fresh . Love the frozen lemonade so delicious. He’s very friendly and welcoming“

“Good pizza!! Love that is build your pizza with some non-traditional toppings!! Clean and the service is great!!“

“My fav always fresh we eat here all the time they def top Pizza Hut & dominos ! Employees act like they don't like their job tho“

“It's so good but I may be biased because I love wendys with a passion. I give the atmosphere 3 stars though, not due to anything with the workers or the cleanliness, there's just something about their parking lot next to the popeyes parking lot next to the shopping center that bugs me but I dont know what it is. Also their chili is really good, just try a free one when it pops up in the deals tab so you dont pay for it.“

“We’re out of towners who tried out dine-in (for the first time) at CF. I’m highly impressed with the service in this location. We went during lunch time when it’s the BUSIEST. I’m talking PACKED. That didn’t stop the workers from having great attitudes! Everyone was so nice and super friendly with my 15mo old. Food was quick, fresh, and delicious!

Parking: plenty of spots since it’s in the same vicinity as McDonald’s and phone company

Kid-friendliness: High chairs accessible“

“the people that were working up front cashiering and cooking had such great attitudes and were funny. Plus the food was absolutely delicious.“

“Picked up a dash order for myself and headed home. Then, realized I didn't receive the extra fried shrimp that I had ordered. Bummer, but an honest mistake! For as consistently good (and affordable) as their food is, they deserve some leniency. Oh, and you should get you some egg rolls, too! ?

Parking: Don't count on getting out of your car, just get it to go in the drive thru. ...Honestly, I'm not even sure if there is a dining room. ?“

“Awesomely Excellent location“

“Today I had a great experience with an employee, thanks for the smiles and great service. You really brightened my day.“

“I stopped in with my grandson today to grab a quick lunch. I gave him the option to choose a lunch spot today, and he chose Subway!

This location is at 1521 Ambassador Caffrey in Lafayette, and I have to say it was clean and spotless.

We ordered our food, and the employee on duty was very polite, courteous and made our subs just as we ordered them. She obviously enjoyed her job, as it showed.

I loved this store and will be back! The subways in my area are not as clean as this one was, and the employees sometimes have an attitude. Thank you to the young lady working today on 9-15-24! You are a jewel!

Parking: Plenty of parking right outside the front door!“

“Always a great experience here at this Subway location. Had a curbside pickup yesterday and the ladies here were trying to take a break but hurried to get my order to me. It is really appreciated to see great customer service. Always fresh food here too.“

“The food is good when you can sit and eat while it is hot'&you don't have to go back to fix your order'maybe if certain ones would not be as high as the menu above my head they can hear what you are asking for or read the order correctly'but at least that cranky lady was not there or don't work there anymore'bring that guy back to the front'at least he can can handle the customers ®ister no matter how buzz he is!“

“Amazing I will for sure order again!!! Love this pizza“
