“Food so good. Been eating there for years. My family eats there. Very delicious and I definitely recommend. Some of the best chicken and shrimp fried rice. Everything just very good. Guarantee you would go back. Service and timing is great. Always cooked when you order so everything is fresh and hot.

“I can NOT SAY ENOUGH WONDERFUL THINGS about the Mother’s Day buffet. My family enjoyed the phenomenal Easter buffet and looked forward to the Mother’s Day; let me say, we were impressed once again. So many wonderful things I could not sample everything but here are my favorites 1. The eggs Benedict … this delicious golden yolk cascaded down, mingling with the silky thyme hollandaise to infuse into the soft English muffin…. Absolute delish!!! 2. The shrimp and grits …. Perfectly cooked spicy shrimp with Gouda grits was a testimony to why southern Louisiana cuisine reigns supreme …. And the Monica sauce elevates it to elegance while still your tummy is pampered with down home comfort. 3. The fried fish! This is a chef’s secret because it was not traditional fried fish. Whatever the secret, it delivered scrumptiousness in every crispy tender bite! Oh and don’t forget the homemade tartar sauce! 4. …… and the perfectly cooked Prime Rib! with the amazing horseradish sauce to complement … definitely a show stopper 5. The ambiance…. The service as always great …..Which seems to be part of the family atmosphere….. and the soft jazz …..taking it from just dining with family to Mother’s Day memories“

“Miss Jessie was our server tonight and she was above and beyond. she was going non stop from the time we got there to the time we left! Extremely attentive and sweet. We loved her“

“Absolutely the most crawfish I have had! Definitely will be a forever customer.“

“I buy a sack a week after Easter until season end.Where s little more expensive, never a bunch of floaters, always larger & always clean, soak them for 30 minutes in water prior to boiling to purge & your water aint full of swamp mud.“

“yes cause they have my buffalo ribs that I want all the time and my neighbor she love they ribs“

“I recently visited this place for the first time on Friday night I was greeted by a hostess who's seemingly appeared to be here for a long time I'm not sure but I was greeted in the most professional way and seated in the area they gave me prompt delivery as the place was very crowded which is a good sign thank you to The Host I believe her name was Dina don't know where she came from but I suggest you guys keep her she gave me a wonderful experience from the door coming in to the door coming out thank you Ms Dina I hope you had a good night“

“I had great customer service at this location. I was on my way in from out of town & was cutting it close to closing. Keke & Taj provided great service from the time we talked to them on the phone til the time we left the restaurant. We've been here many times but the first time with them working there. We will be returning. Thank you for awesome service.??

Parking: It's not alot of“

“My first time at Smacking Mack’s and everything was absolutely top tier including the service!!! Thanks guys!“

“Super good and inexpensive food. I ordered the fish sandwich, which came with fries for around $5 - more affordable than fast food. Onion rings and Mac and cheese were also excellent, though the Mac serving was a little smaller than expected. If you don’t use the drive through, expect to wait in a small building with a kitchen and counter. Lot parking.“

“Mother's Day 2024 was much first visit there. I entered a contest by writing an essay about my Mom ( my biological mom has been deceased for years, so I wrote about my spiritual Mom (pastor's wife) and I won a sack of crawfish with fixings for her! She was over the moon happy. The meal was amazing! When the cooler was opened, you could smell a balance of seasonings. The customer service was amazing! Cheyenne is so nice. We had a great conversation! My family looks forward to eating meals from Debarge's again!“

“Appetizers were great wedge salad off the chart, marinated rib eye was just okay taste more like a Hawaiian steak. Will go back again and order rib eye with lobster shrimp and cream sauce. Creme brulee awesome. Wife was not a fan of her trout with maple sauce.“

“I want to give 4 1/2 or 3/4 stars so I’m rounding up. We were in town for the day and found Koal’s so I placed an online order. It was completed faster than estimated. It was a great value for the money. The biggest issue was I ordered the slaw on the side of my PB&J and it was missing from my order. The brisket was also a little dry but mixed with the rest of the sandwich it was fine. That being said, if I ever found myself in Alexandria again I would absolutely come back.“

“The manager made a recommendation for a Seafood Boil (house special) which was delicious. A little messy for a Brit, but well worth it.

Management was fantastic. Christy/Chrissy(?) lead a great team. Everyone seemed to know what to do without being told. It operated like a well oiled machine.

After locking our keys in the car, Christy and China (bartender) welcomed us back inside and were extremely hospitable. Christy even called several locksmiths on a Sunday evening (while closing up the restaurant). Then, after no luck getting a locksmith, Christy drove us back to our hotel.“

“I used to be a huge fan of Rosie Jo's. But now after eating their Cajun Nachos, I'm a full blown air conditioner! Best nachos I've ever had. Great portion size. Really balanced flavors. I'm very happy with my lunch today ❤“

“Excellent staff , clean restaurant and nice atmosphere. Dont know what some of these people ate that criticized but ive eaten at over 1200 restauants and this is up there . Like ive said this restaurant belongs in the big city. Great steak and shrimp. Great job to the chefs.“

“I got the Maki Roll Lunch special which came with a salmon roll, spicy tuna, and California roll. Fish was fresh, food came out fast. The issue was that the rice was not sushi rice (usually flavored with sugar, mirin, etc;) but just plain white jasmine rice that was a little bit too dry to be used for sushi. The ratio of fish to rice is also not great, too much rice.
The rolls were also cut into uneven pieces, with some too thick. Honestly I picked off all the rice and just ate the inside of the rolls.

The service was good, food came fast. Large portions. It’s clean inside. I would probably just order sashimi next time.

Salmon roll- 4/5 due to freshness of salmon. Rice sucked.

California roll- 2/5. Rice ruined it. Some pieces too thick.

Spicy tuna roll-1/5. Horrible rice. The spicy tuna also had a weird flavor and was not enjoyable.“

“A huge thank you to the manager and her staff (I have their names written on our receipt in my paperwork somewhere) on duty provided my husband Eric and I with great care. Our food was hot and very delicious. I had a giant fried whitefish sandwich and hush puppies. My husband who always offers some his meal to me, thoroughly enjoyed his meal too. He didn’t much care for the red velvet cheesecake though. We look forward to visiting next time we’re in Alexandria, LA.
