Cajun Restaurants near Broussard, LA

“Yes I would recommend Prejean’s in Broussard. Ashley was an excellent server. I would recommend the Catfish Atchafalaya is my favorite an add a margarita and I’m in heaven. Excellent food and service. Love it.“

“It has been a while and I REALLY enjoyed the Sunday BBQ. In fact, everyone I purchased the plate lunches for enjoyed the food!“

“Best homemade cooking around!“

“Fantastic fast response and great food. The best crawfish and shrimp I have had!! Thank you Craig and Tonya.“

“We have spent our special occasions here for several years. The flavor and quality have diminished in our last three visits. We have taken them off of our go to list.“

“What a hidden gem this place is! Delicious burgers and fries. Friendly employees. I will not be going to the fast food burger places again.“

“1st time trying Bucks. got 5lbs extra spicy with corn and potatoes. They even threw in a sausage to try. thought it was very good. perfect amount of spice, easy to peel, good size, and i only waited 5 mins.“

“Best food,, breaux bread, shrimp and grits, and banana pudding! Owners Dave and Cheryl Pucket are the best!!“

“Our server Amariah J was awesome. She was very friendly and made our dining experience great. R. Pitre“

“The food was worth the trip!! This spot has officially earned a permanent place on our driving to NOLA itinerary. While the inside of store itself is pretty barebones—no music, no frills, just a straightforward setup—the flavors more than make up for it. Although I think they did a great job with the eye-catching exterior.

We tried both types of cracklings, sampled several varieties of Boudain, and picked up a stuffed chicken to take home. Every bite delivered on the hype. The cracklings were perfectly crisp and seasoned, and the Boudain had that rich, savory depth that’s hard to find outside Louisiana.

Service-wise, the cashier wasn’t exactly warm—seemed to be having a day—but honestly, the food speaks louder than any mood. If you’re chasing authentic Cajun goodness, this is the place. It’s all about what’s coming out of the kitchen.“

“I ventured to Lafayette to attend Festival International. Since I had the morning and most of the afternoon free the day after my arrival I decided to head to Vermillionville to explore the historic village and have lunch at La Cuisine de Maman. What a great decision!! The food at the restaurant was delicious. I had the plate lunch with a cup of seafood gumbo to start. Everything was really good. The plate lunch that day was crawfish etouffee over rice, smothered green beans, fried shrimp with tartar sauce, and a big biscuit. Portions were very generous; I thought that some of the food might overflow onto the table.😊 I didn't have room for dessert; although I've since been told by lots of people that I should have taken it with me. After eating, I explored the village. What an amazing blend of history and culture it is! I can't wait to return.“

“I been using Dwight’s for years on the catering side. My party guest are always pleased, just as much as I am.“

“This place genuinely exceeded my expectations in every aspect!! I still can’t stop thinking about it! I found out about them through the Foodies of Lafayette page and people did not lie. We tried the Pork Belly Bahn Mi (which alone is such a fun, creative menu item for a place like this) and 3 portion BBQ plate. NOTHING disappointed, good LAWD. I also honestly feel like the BBQ plate is extremely fairly priced for how much high quality food you get. We tried the prime brisket, pork, and st.Louis ribs and everything was incredible. Also some of THE best corn maque choux I’ve ever had as a side. The pork belly bahn mi was also obviously as good as the pictures looked. Aside from the food, the atmosphere is incredibly stylish and comfortable, with a modern vintage look, nice spacious seating, and incredible bathrooms. The customer service was top notch too! Everyone was incredibly helpful and seemed so passionate and hard working, always staying attentive and busy. I genuinely feel so lucky to have experienced something so refreshing in so long, it’s been so rare to find a gem like this!“

“loved the oysters and the service. Ask for Francè!!! Will be back again“

“JJ’s Boil Shack cooked the very best crawfish I have ever eaten..“

“Delicious! Well seasoned! Great staff!“

“The only thing better than the food was our server, Skylee! 😁“

“I come for the boudin and for Charlie t's seasoning mix. According to the employee that I talked to, they do not put organ meats in their boudin so it's a bit non-traditional. She said they use ground sirloin. I prefer to have a bit of liver in my boudin but Charlie t's is still very good because it's the best season boudin i have had. It's worth coming here for the seasoning mix alone. It's the best. The only other thing I ever get here is fried liver and fried gizzards which are both pretty good. I can't speak to the other food as I've never tried it.“

“My family and I stopped here for supper and we were very impressed with the food! Being cajun this place was spot on with the atmosphere and food. The service was also 5 stars. Check out their seasoning also! Very good and we will be eating there often!“

“Small place in a strip mall. Independently owned with huge portions and delicious food. My mom and I shared a shrimp po' boy and Muffalatta baskets. Both were good. Ask if you can get a little extra olive relish if you want to only taste it. I thought it was perfect but my mom thought she'd have liked a bit more of the relish. My husband got a large catfish platter and was almost embarrassed about how many pieces he got. Sharing it for 2 people would still leave 3 or 4 pieces each. My dad got the fried pork chop and he loved it. He doesn’t have much appetite and we have to push him to eat. But he ate a whole huge pork chop and has one for tonight, too. He didn't need any encouragement to eat it. It was really good.

Enjoyed talking to the owner and ger husband is the cook. It was one of those small places that people discover great food. Zero ambiance, but who needs that when your meal is simply prepared and fills you with good flavors?“

“Food is Delicious every time I always pick the Right Side to Match My Delicious 😋“

“Good food great service,would highly recommend them“

I’m so excited about the low carb, paleo and keto dishes he offers. Everyone was so nice and friendly and that made our experience even better. We will definitely come back,“

“The best!!!! Do yourself a favor and try the kung fu tuna stack and brussell sprouts. My parents eat here at least twice a week!!! Owners are great 😊“

“the food we had on buffet tonight was excellent, and our waiter Mark was top notch. this is definitely our new go to spot. thanks for great service n a fantastic dinner date for my boyfriend and myself. 💯“

“Finally decided to try Julian's Poboys...one word, amazing! I had the shrimp poboy and it was delicious. The bread was the best and the shrimp were fresh and fried to perfection. We also tried the Wild Turkey poboy, also delicious. Don't forget the onion strings. The best poboys we've had in Lafayette to date. The staff were great also.“

“Awesome food, awesome atmosphere, but better people! It has stood the test of time for a reason! Go check it out you won’t regret it!“

“One of the first places I stop every time I go to Lafayette! HUGE portions, DELICIOUS, creative menu and amazing staff!!!! Please open a location in Mandeville🤗🙏😉“

“Lack luster gumbo: Arrived just after opening, ordered chicken and sausage gumbo with extra rice. Gumbo arrived and was luke warm. Had a overpowering taste of roux which really made the meal unworthwhile. I've eaten at Chris's a number of times before and not had this issue so there is the unknown of why it was soo bad this time. I will think twice before visiting again.“

“Love the blueberry biscuits.“

“three words. boudin egg rolls. <3“

“1st we came here with family that is local. We got to listen to Chubby Carrier live. I couldn't quit grinnin'!!!The food and atmosphere is a real delight!! Come on in for your Zydeco breakfast, stay awhile and enjoy the music!! You won't regret it!!“

Go eat here as soon as you get a chance. I visited her booth at Festivals Acadiens in October, and some of my family went to visit the restaurant. It's DELICIOUS!“
