“I like the store but my friend was behind someone at the food counter and they served them but didn't come help my friend. It's like they just were to busy to help. We were only ones in the business n there were 2 people standing behind the counter doing absolutely nothing. I won't even stop at that Go Bears again. I might stop at the one across the street like I usually do, maybe! ?“

“Hidden gem in Lafayette! I’m from out of town and had to cater a picnic lunch for our traveling soccer team. I stumbled upon Joey’s and I’m so glad I did! Food and service was over the top. Mr. Joey himself helped me carry out my order. The market is amazing, I wish I could’ve stayed longer to shop! Well done!“

“Stopped by for the first time after a UL game last night. Food was awesome but what really made the stop was the Manager ,Joe. Joe was very friendly talked with us for about 15 minutes, very professional you could tell he enjoys his job. KOK, give this man a raise or promote him to GM because I can guarantee you are not going to find a more dedicated partner, or worker than this man. WAY TO GO JOE!!!“

I’m pretty sure 100% of the people that go and enjoy a fabulous night out @crawfishtownusa Have recommended Crawfish town USA. To everyone they know the moment they stepped out of the door. I truly commend the owners and staff for having great customer service“

“Greatc food. We enjoyed our experience“

“Finally got to eat here and wow, delicious isn't even good enough of a word to describe the food here! We got several things to try and just a warning, the portions are HUGE, so either have a big appetite or prepare to have leftovers and make a couple meals out of even their regular size! The crawfish fried rice was like etoufee and fried rice combined so of course tasted amazing, the shrimp curry was also pretty amazing and tasted great, could have maybe had a stronger curry taste but was delicious as-is, teriyaki chicken fried rice was also extremely tasty and had a good amount of vegetables which was also really nice, the bang-bang shrimp were large, tasty and well sauced with the bang-bang sauce. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes ❤️❤️“

“One of the great lunch locations anywhere. The menu is changed every week, and the chefs are amazing.

You have a front row seat around the giant kitchen area. You see your meals prepare right in front you every time.

The wine is selected just for the meals. From appetizers to entree, dessert and coffee… it is terrific.

The store has one of the best selections of great cookware of any place shopped.

For great dining anc great shopping, this is the place.“

When you oder a burger you do have to wait a Lil while bc they cook to order, so burger is freshly cooked and ? hot (temperature wise.)“
