“A Southern classic. Wonderful, welcoming staff.Mixed review on the food:1. We had the shrimp and grits, which were a bit disappointing: underseasoned and overcooked shrimp over soupy grits.2. On the good side, the biscuits were flaky, and the coffee was perfect.Next time I'd stick with the breakfast basics like eggs and ham/bacon/sausage.Rock on, Victor's! See you again soon.”

“Wow! Shrimp Po Boy was amazing! Sometimes the bread can be too hard or crunchy, and this one was on point. Perfectly fried shrimp with a tasty sauce. Fries were also good, crispy and seasoned well.10/10!”

“Great place to grab lunch, The food was very tasty and different. It wasn't like every other restaurant you see nowadays. The view is stunning, but the service could step up their game. When you're more worried about picking up the check from an empty table then refilling the customer drink. All and all this place is worth coming back to.”

“Very good Vietnamese food! GO NOW! You won't be disappointed. Friendly service and food was ready quickly. Stopped in for lunch when we were in the area. Would come back if I'm ever in New Iberia again.”

“Good atmosphere and good ole folks like me. Good friend of mine from back in the day owns this place and this was my first time there while visiting family in my hometown. Thanks for the beers Ty”

“I absolutely loved this food! I went for my first time about 2 months ago and I have recommended it and gone many times since! The service was absolutely amazing and so was the food! The lighting was very soothing as well which helped the whole experience! I love this place and definitely recommend it!”

“I keep forgetting to get pics of the burger before I devour it lol! But Catin’s definitely has one of the best burgers in town! Our go to burger is simply the Catin’s burger fully dressed…the onion jam is divine and the burger is actually still amazing without it lol! I also love that they have the #everybodyeats campaign. Check em out and see what it’s all about!”

“two days ago was our first time in this excellent restaurant. But It is obviously not the last. We passed a splendid evening with the attentive service, with the magnificent food and booze and with the honest charge. We will definitely go back there in a short time.”

“Great place to grab and go. The food was flavored amazingly! Tried to do it again but we were too early.Staff were super friendly! We were newbies to trying craw fish and they gave us some to try and showed us how to do it. Was awesome! The shrimp was amazing!”

“Best gumbo in Da Berry. Rice doesn’t stick together. Chicken and sausage are flavorful. Not too salty. Generous portion. Will definitely order gumbo from here twice a month if not more!”

“One of the highlights of our trip was to go to St Mary Seafood and Marina and meet on of the Edgars. Sure enough we meet Joey. He was very welcoming and is who he appears to be on the show, Swamp People. My kids thought it was really cool to meet a star off Swamp People. Thanks for taking a picture with our family and letting us look around.”

“Great little pizza find in town. Great crust. Ask for more sauce tho! Staff was super friendly and helpful. Only complaint is it's kind of pricey and they close early. Otherwise it's definitely a place for pizza night!”

“We were visiting and happened to stumble upon this cafe. You can’t run to this place fast enough… by far the best breakfast I have ever had! The staff was amazing and they give you a special “small town” feel! I can’t say enough to express how great this cafe is. The Bayou Boudin Biscuit is amazing!”

“Since they moved to their new location in front of Super Walmart on Admiral Doyle New iberia, the food is half of what it used to be at the old location. Opened my quesadilla to find only small pieces of shredded chicken. And the sides we're very little to add to the quesadilla. Very disappointed.Parking: Lots of parking compared to the old location”

“Great daiquiris, great prices, slow service. The line was more than 10 cars long and the line was moving very slow. I've heard from multiple people that the line is always this way. The blueberry lemonade is the best!!! Update: don't go here if you're pressed for time you can count on waiting at least 20 minutes depending on the line.”

“Road stop dining that can't be missed on the way to New Iberia. The gentleman who served up the food and was servicing the window was quick and cooks up a mean barbecue. Huge portion. The turkey necks were peeling off the bone and glistening in a fantastic, sweet and just barely spicy, brown sauce that was also drizzled over a bed of rice; the dinner roll on the side was perfectly soft, easy to peel and share; the sausage pea soup was so good, there were tears coming down my travel pals face (?️), this being the same person who initially figured that she wasn't hungry until I opened up the dinner plate. More please!”

“Amazing selection of daiquiris and free samples stopped in here after having visited the tabaco experience and had a blast chatting with the bar tender and other patrons about things todo in the area. I got a pina colada and rip tide mix which was the perfect combo. A must stop if you're in the area!”

“First thing I have to say is even if the food wasn't good. I'd come back because of the excellent customer service. I ended up getting the shrimp platter which came with fried rice. The shrimper really good and the fried rice was actually delicious. It wasn't greasy which tends to be the case with similar places. But believe it or not the star of this particular meal happened to be the tartar sauce which was absolutely delicious. I'm not saying it was homemade but it definitely tasted like. Creamy tangy and just an overall richness. I paid just a little under $11 on this meal. I don't even live here but I could see myself driving 30 minutes or so just to pick something up from this place.”

“Don't let the building fool you -this is one of the best places to eat the food is amazing always fresh and delicious with generous portions and the prices are reasonable-I love the combination Fouche salad I substitute the dressing for Taziki sauce, the Gyro, meat and chicken Shawarma are absolutely amazing it's one of my favorite salads hands-down!”

“A great well established bar where the bartenders are attentive and the regulars are an interesting group. Monday night is Songwriters Night and it's definitely a must.”

“Food is great and so is the service!, we have eaten @ restaurant and have gotten takeout multiple times. Service is fast and waitresses always courteous. We have never ordered anything which wasn't tasty.”

“I tried the hot dog my wife & i & yes they are exceptional good the chill was awesome & The Lejeune Buns are a key success for hot dogs. The kicker on the hot dogs is they put plenty of chill you don’t have to ask for extra chill when you phone in your order. This was Tuesday so I said today I try the cheeseburger & fries & a medium drink it was awesome also they make their own meat patties it’s not a patty like Burger King ships in . The Price was good also this combo was $11.31 . I am from New Iberia & I will be back. The service was 15 minutes or less & the employee was nice at the window.”

“I go to Moore's almost every Monday to get his smothered sausage with rice and gravy and white beans. It is simply the best I've ever had. BBQ is great, spaghetti is great, smothered meatballs are great.... yes, it's all good. You will NOT be disappointed.”
