“Well done. Very good quality. Cooked right. Good size shrimp and the bread was perfect. Toasted on the ouside, fresh and chewy inside. It had the right amount of mayo, lettuce and tomatoes, also fresh and good quality.Coke zero is in bottle and cans. The bottles cost like 50 cents more than the can, because there is more in the bottle than the can.The lady that waited on my table was very nice. She brought out the food to me, and checked in at appropriate times. Very good service. The fries were excellent. At first they looked like they may have been cooked well done, but they were perfect.All in all, good meal, good price, nice people, good service. I recommend, and I would eat there again.“

“During a recent visit to The Lunch Box, a quaint diner known for its Louisiana dinner with creole dishes, my husband and I had an enjoyable experience overall. The Lunch Box has a unique and nostalgic ambiance, adorned with various lunchboxes that instantly took me back to my childhood. It seems to be a popular spot, especially among locals and older patrons looking for a quick and affordable lunch.

I opted for the shrimp po' boy, which was decent and flavorful. I'd rate it a 3.75 out of 5. My husband tried the fried pork chop special. Although it had good flavor, the pork was a bit dry, so we would rate it a 3.25 out of 5.

The standout feature of our visit was undoubtedly the friendly and welcoming staff. They were attentive and added a pleasant touch to our dining experience. While the food had its ups and downs, the overall atmosphere and service made it a worthwhile visit.

If you're in the mood for some creole dishes and a trip down memory lane with its unique decor, The Lunch Box is worth checking out.“

“Boiled shrimp are excellent .. and get this .. sold without the heads (extra weight) .. perfectly boiled, right amount of seasoning, not a long wait, actually very satisfied even would go as far as to say .. pleased .. !!

Parking: The parking lot leaves a lot to be desired .. and I mean A LOT .. cement getting in and out of parking lot on both entrances/exists are broken up and washed out due to water erosion and omg the entire parking lot is one big pot hole .. can't tell if the business was built around the pot hole or if the pot hole was built around the business .. kinda like a molt (look it up .. molt)“
