“Best anywhere. The owners are so nice. The people that work there are also amazing it’s a family owned business. All crawfish and shrimp are amazing. Everyone needs to go pick up some and try it for yourself. They are also for giving back with every 5 lbs of crawfish you get a punch on the card and after a couple punches you get 5 lbs free. What’s better than that. CRAWFISH FON THIS PLACE IS“

“From the moment I stepped inside I was enveloped in an atmosphere of pure elegance. The soft ambient lighting, tasteful décor, and hushed conversations created an intimate yet refined setting, perfect for a memorable evening. The service was impeccable—attentive yet unobtrusive, with every detail meticulously attended to. The staff’s knowledge of the menu and wine pairings was impressive, guiding us through a culinary journey that felt both personalized and indulgent. ❣️“

“Stopped in for lunch today (Saturday). Sat at the bar and Hannah, the bartender was very attentive. She chatted with us in between serving guests. As always, the food was outstanding. We had the loaded Cajun cheeseburger and grilled shrimp and bacon wrap, customized to our specifications. The Cajun Table is one of our favorite places. Try the crawfish nachos!“

“We celebrated our 39th anniversary Saturday night It was amazing. The ribeyes was so tender and juicy, sweet potatoes with pecans was to divine. The whole dinner was awesome! We love the services and the atmosphere, it was beautiful and spectacular. We will be back. Thanks for a wonderful visit.“

“The smother pork chops was good“

“Loved it!!!! I haven’t had real seafood in a hot minute. I knew it would be good when I pulled up to the building. I smelled the spice as soon as I walked in, I ordered crawfish, snow crab legs and blue crabs. We went with the mild seasoning (I smelled the spice and my baby is NY born soooo…) anyway… the taste was amazing, very flavorful and not too spicy… Spiced enough to have your nose running but not overbearing. It was cooked to order, still hot after 30mins plus and the lady brought the pans to us (which she didn’t have to do, but I thought when she said 20mins that I’d give them 30mins before going in). Great meal!!! Would definitely go again!!! Just in town for the football tournament but I’d take another weekend drive to get some more.“

“6.13.25 @ approx. 1 P.M.
I came here for the first time because Lumber Jacks (another eatery I wanted to try seemed to have been closed for good).

I saw chicken and sausage gumbo on their menu, but they ran out.

I tried the shrimp stew. It came with corn and potato salad. It was good.

We also tried the fried catfish (2 pieces), and I really enjoyed the piece I tasted.

If you are ever on Moss St. and looking for a plate lunch, the Lunch Box might fill the void.“

“Highly recommended⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have eaten here since I can remember, before I was able to drive and pick food up myself. It’s a ‘pick up only’ location,
as of typing this review, the area is safe by far. It’s Lafayette. In fact, the north side has more police presence, police stations, and fire trucks than anywhere else in the city. you’d have bad luck here get a headlight citation before anything else on this end, again, it’s pick up only location.. they’re cooking, taking orders chilling and family oriented, not the bubbly experience of a dine-in restaurants. The aesthetics of the area outside isn’t Tier A gorgeous It’s a pass-by location in general. Not much to see here but a handful of houses down s pierce st, some industrial/factory building, and cars flying by.

That said, the fried food is the best in town.

I recommend the chicken tenders. 5pc two sauce 10pc has 4. There’s some charge for extra sauce.

The honey mustard sauce is great as well. Whenever I mention this place to friends, the tenders are always a win.“

“Just leaving Mandez’s & it definitely did not disappoint. The burgers & service were VERY GOOD!!!! We’ll be back soon!!!“

“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.“

“I been using Dwight’s for years on the catering side. My party guest are always pleased, just as much as I am.“

“Food & staff both amazing every time I’ve dined in or picked up!!“

“10/10! Best Crawfish I’ve had this season“

“JJ’s Boil Shack cooked the very best crawfish I have ever eaten..“

“The wings are on POINT. And I am loving the app exclusives. My favorite wings in Lafayette, bomb sauces made in house and fresh food every time. Cannot wait for the new location by ambassador.“

“I like to go with friends to this place with my highest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are tasty and the stuff is efficient and cooperative. Every time we go to this place we enjoy a lovely evening. highly recommended.“

“Hands down the best crawfish I’ve ever had. I got the spicy & they were on point! They were huge & not one bad crawfish in my plate. We got shrimp to take home & even they were phenomenal!!“

“I had a Shredded beef and beans hot plate, phillie cheese steak empanadas, and xxx hot shrimp. All three were amazing. when I ate it I almost cried I was so thankful. It was extremely unexpected after comming in here on a whim when all the Pho shops are closed. Get that Shredded beef and bean hot plate!! I'll est here every time I'm in lafayette for work now.“
