“The December cooking class was such an awesome! My daughter and I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next one.“

“Love the crowd this fantastic place brings in... originally created in New Orleans - this bowling alley and dance floor features awesome bands, fattening foods and snacks and wonderful drinks...but like Whole Foods taking your WHOLE wallet... This place will do EXACTLY that.... ?..$25 an hour to bowl and unlimited $an hour if you are dancing and buying drinks. Love the owner and the USA national anthem before bands start... ENJOY this now LAFAYETTE establishment.“

“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.“

“🌟 5 Stars doesn’t even begin to cover it. I finally tried Veronica Café, and I’m officially mad at myself for waiting this long — because this place? Mind. Blown. I’ve had my fair share of plate lunches over the years, but this was on another level. Everything was cooked to absolute perfection. The red beans and rice had that perfect smoky flavor — rich, hearty, and balanced. Nothing overwhelmed anything else. Just good, soulful food that makes you close your eyes and nod like “yes, THIS.” The mac & cheese? Creamy, cheesy goodness that could double as therapy. And let me talk about the fried chicken. Y’all. Fried chicken might be a simple dish, but what they’re doing at Veronica Café? Next level. The seasoning was chef’s kiss — not too salty, not too spicy, not too bland — just flavorful all the way through. Every bite had me wondering how they made it taste that good. You can feel the love in every dish. I genuinely believe everything was cooked with care, intention, and soul. After today, this is officially my go-to spot for plate lunches. Thank you, Veronica Café, for kicking my tastebuds into happy gear. I’ll be back — probably sooner than I should admit. 💛“
