“Food is very good! We always enjoy the food there. Plate lunches are a bit expensive, we ordered a pork chop plate and it came with onion rings and we wanted to replace the onion ring for mash potatoes and what we got was one pork chop in a empty to go plate with a very small cup with mash potatoes on the side for the same prize as if we would of had the onion rings in the plate and they charged extra for the small cup of mash potatoes. And we asked for gravy and there was no gravy. But we still love their food and their very friendly atmosphere! We still eat there we just don't order the pork chops .“

Please support your local businesses and put your money where you'll get it's worth. ?Kid-friendliness: Kids can enjoy a great cheeseburger dressed how they want with fries, or a well rounded breakfast called the "plain Jane breakfast" which comes with 2 eggs, bacon, healthy cauliflower grits, and breakfast potatoes.“

Beautiful cookware, dinnerware, cutlery, and a huge wall of kitchen gadgets. I didn't get to spend as much time as I wanted in there due to time constraints, but my intention is to go back. I'm sure I will find something I'm convinced I can't live without!!!“

Everything was seasoned well and prepared with love. Plenty of gravy, I was able to cover my rice with it. No plain rice kernels we’re had. Loved it! I hate it when places give white rice with gravy and there’s not enough to go around. The customer service was great as well. They know their regulars and make sure everyone enjoyed their meals. I will definitely come back. Very nice people who know how to work together to get things done.“

“Traveling through Lafayette Louisiana and decided to stop at Hideaway, and it didn't disappoint. I chose to sit inside at the bar as I was one person and there was a $10 cover charge for the band that would be playing.I had the house salad with in-house made lemon garlic vinaigrette. The salad was a hearty portion of mixed greens, (not Roman or iceburg), thin sliced cucumbers and sliced cherry tomatoes. The balance was perfect and the dressing refreshing.For my main dish I had the lead belly pork sandwich and onion rings. The pork belly sandwich was very flavorful with pickled greens. The onion rings were lightly battered with an in-house semi-spicy aoli. The amazing bartender custom made my sweet tea to my liking which perfectly paired with my meal.“

“It had been at least 40 years since I ate here! Loved it in the late 1970 & 1980’s!! Today, The burger was on point! Grill taste, buttered toasted buns, smallest is 1/4 lb, just right for a small burger with not a huge bun. Fries were perfectly fried and seasoned.Problem with smell…of restaurant, musky, old grease, grim. Vents are very dirty near ceiling, bricks on wall were dark and appeared dirty near floor. The kitchen is open so public can watch. I’m not a fan. Seems like all the smell from kitchen flows into dining area. A good cleaning will make this a 5 star review.“

I now know what it feels like to be loved protected and wanted! Most of all I now know what it feels like to truly honestly love someone! Thank you Legends for your service on that September night that lead to many more with my best friend Colin Schlabach! I will always be so grateful and thankful for the memories made and the ones I continue to make with Legends!“

“This time I had the cheeseburger potato. I have been eating at the Potato Place for over 12 years. I used to work at the iPhone shop a few doors down and it was a great spot to get a good lunch. The potatoes are always enormous, and the toppings are always More than enough. So the cheeseburger potato I get it with extra liquid cheese, extra tomatoes, and an extra side of jalapeños.They also give you packets of Tony’s if you want to spice it up a little bit. I ate 3/4 of it which is quite a lot and it was just as delicious as it was 10 years ago. I’m so thankful for the consistency that they have carried over these years. Some people are not happy but most people are and I’ll be wanting to tell you my 12 years of experience here I have only had one potato out of possibly 100 or more I wasn’t 100% satisfied with.They always show you your potato before you leave to make sure it’s exactly what you order and they do their best to customize it just the way you want. Thank you Eric for keeping it simple and delicious and I pray that your business continues to thrive. I knew all the owners before you hopefully I’ll get to come in and meet you one day. Also, they have some new things on the menu.I look forward to trying, but for me, the cheeseburger potato, the steak fajita potato, Barbecue potato with that delicious sweet barbecue sauce, and of course, broccoli and cheese potato. These were my favorites and like I said, you can salt it you can it you can jalapeño it, and I even sometimes like to throw Sriracha on it.P.S.even though prices are going up everywhere these potatoes are well worth it. I’m just a regular customer and also I’m a paraplegic so the accessibility in the parking lot and how friendly the staff is and helping assist always makes the visit pleasant and worthwhile. Thank y’all again and keep up the good work.Oh, and they sell gift cards too lol I’ll take two hahaWheelchair accessibility: I am a paraplegic and I have been eating here for years. I have never had a problem and a lot of times they even open the door for you. Not always, but it does happen. This places always been super friendly atmospheres always been super great.“
