50 Best American Restaurants near Carencro

“Stop by for some lunch. Super friendly staff got us seated in the bar area. About a dozen TV's going with the races on. It's was great to watch some Nascar, then look over watch some horses run also.
I don't know how many beers were on tap, but it was way more to try than I could do. I don't stop by too many places and see andygator on tap, so that was super cool. That nice lady at the bar was pretty good at whipping up mixed drinks for my wife. Kept her happy while the cars were making laps on the TV.
I got a queso burger that was the awesome. The Mrs got a hamburger steak that had some 10 outta 10 gravy on there. I don't know what part of the woods the room was from, but they'd definitely mastered the brown gravy.
Wasn't to expensive to stop in for a bit and super awesome waitress there. Quick, easy stop off the highway to get there. Definitely gonna be stopping back by.“

“My daughter and I had breakfast this morning at the Waffle House in Carencro. The restaurant was extremely clean and well kept but most importantly their customer service was incredible. They were polite, professional and friendly. Props to Sarah Mae and the whole crew!“

“First time customer today. Lifetime customer from now on. OUTSTANDING place! Some of the best food I’ve ever had! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!“

“Kassy was our server and she was awesome! She was super friendly and stayed on top of everything! Can’t recommend her or Fat Pat’s enough!!“

“tried the CFS plate lunch, the chicken fried steak was seasoned & fried to perfection! so delicious 😋“

“I took my kids and friend there on yesterday to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. After receiving our food, the waitress asked if everything was ok. I informed her that my shrimp was over cooked and was very hard to chew. She said she would inform the manager….we waited 8 minutes and no manager came. We watched him walk back and forth without ever acknowledging me. When the waitress passed back I asked her what did he say, she said oh, he said that how they cook it. Finally after 5 minutes or so he came, saw and said him self that my shrimp was overcooked and that he’ll be back. I waited and waited he never came back. I had the shrimp poboy that had a total of 5 and a half shrimp on it. It was like they took pieces of crust and stuck it between bread. My friend got up and stopped him to ask what’s going on because he never came back. He told her that I couldn’t be accommodated because I ate some it. They were all very unprofessional. I’ll never go back there. That definitely not how you handle business and the customer.“

“Great place to see live music“

“Indoors was full so we chose to eat outside rather than leave and I’m so glad we did! We had our daughter so they even offered to bring an additional fan to point towards her. They were very attentive and kind the entire time. We ordered an appetizer and our two entrées and everything was GREAT! Bonus points everyone eating there just like us were just the sweetest as they were passing us walking in and out of the restaurant! And no I don’t think that was coincidence or luck, that Park Bistro and its service just attracts those type of people! Most definitely will be back and will recommend to others!“

“Love there breakfast the biscuits are delicious“

“What an amazing place to eat, relax and chill. The food and drinks were amazing. The bartender was sweet and enjoyable. She made our experience great. Didn't catch her name but she had short bangs and wavy hair. Fun time. Can't wait to go back.“

“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 the original GoBears on Canal in Thibodaux for gas and went inside to get a coffee. The delightful Gail took time to tell me some of the history of GoBears and a gave me few tips since i’m new to Thibodaux. Thanks Gail! I can’t wait to try the mini pan pizza in other locations. The coffee was great and the service even better!“

“Piccadilly in Lafayette, La always worth the stop. We ordered the baked fish, salad, turnip greens, garlic toast, carrots, soufflé, and an Italian cream cheesecake — and every single thing was cooked to absolute perfection. The flavors were spot‑on, the portions were generous, and the consistency is exactly why I keep coming back.

The customer service feels down‑home and genuine, the kind you don’t get everywhere anymore. My plate was fresh, hot, and prepared with care. Since we don’t have a Piccadilly in Houston, I make it a point to stop here whenever I’m traveling. The food is always delicious, and it’s officially part of my routine now“

“I had not been here in awhile but really had a good time the other night. Going back real soon“

“We have used Big Hill Cafe (Brent and Lucy’s) services for years and every single time we are overly impressed! They are a joy to work with and their superior cuisine is all outstanding! Highly recommend!“

“Great evening with Pigeon Post Trivia!“

“very good staff clean friendly“

“My food came out cold. I had the BBQ brisket. Sides were; potato salad, baked beans, rice dressing and a roll. I didn't receive my roll, rice dressing and brisket were cold. I mean cold like sat out of the heat for 15 minutes. We waited over 40 minutes for our food and it wasn't overly busy. Waitress tried, but first didn't bring plates for shareables, didn't bring utensils for meals, never got my BBQ sauce, and that was on her. I understand the food coming out was the kitchen not her, but the rest was. I got tap water for my drink and the bill listed my drink as 2.99 when we complained she reduced it to 89 cents. For tap water.
An apology wasn't offered, no assurance of our food coming. My brother in laws food came when others were finishing. It was a mess. I really doubt I'll be returning. It was a disappointment. It was only our second time eating there. The first time service was just as bad. It's a shame. A lil town like cankton needs these mom and pop places. But poor customer service has no excuses.“

“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.“

“First time visit, found the place clean and the staff very helpful. Ordered a Barbeque Brisket potato with the potato almost football size and a nice thick layer of Brisket on top. Too much food for one sitting! I have enough for a second meal. I will continue to return and bring others as well.“

“Had an amazing lunch to go. I was in the area and decided to use my T-Mobile Tuesday deal. I ordered the chicken stripe meal with fries and received a burger meal for free. I had the original burger with fries. The food was hot and fresh. The wonderful staff assisted me with my order. It was a crazy thunderstorm day and I went inside to order. My food was still hot by the time I made it home.“

“Love this place! However!!! Tables need improvement….paint, tablecloth.
Locals, like moi, love this place! But it could be so much more special if you paid more attention to details!!!
Waiter, Lauren, simply darling!
Food good too!“
