Restaurants in Opelousas

“Every month, I drive the 216 miles from Houston, Texas down I-10 to Scott, Louisiana to Billy's. Food as always is good and Excellent Customer Service. This month, I decided to have Billys for Thanksgiving Dinner. I ordered what I always order, a dozen of pepper jack balls, a dozen of pepper jack wraps, a dozen of links and this time, I added a dozen of shrimp 🍤 boudain balls. So far so smooth, except today it was super packed at 8 o'clock in the morning when its always empty the previous months I have visited for years. Plus, a Louisiana State Trooper accosted me on I-10 heading back to Texas. I wish yall would open up a location in Texas because my days of driving through Louisiana are limited now especially with those crowds and Louisiana State Troopers hounding me. Sorry. Excellent food and Customer Service though. 😎”

“Very good boudin, extra spicy and the boudin balls had a special spice that was different, we really liked it! Glad I got off the beaten path and didn’t go to Billy’s next door, it was certainly worth it!”

“This place is always amazing and all of the people are really so sweet and nice and caring. Always so much fun there!!!!”

“I will drive the distance to get some of those Fires chicken. VERY FRIENDLY SERVICE. This is our second time to come . And we LOVE IT . Our servers were Corley&Robbin . You just don’t get this Friendly service anywhere.”

“It was great. We went around 2 pm so they want busy but I looked around and they have plenty of room. They have room for smaller gatherings like 30 or so people.”

“Just had some of their Smoked Pork Sausage. Some of the best that I have ever had. Can't wait to try the other things I purchased from them. They have a unique seasoning they use on the Chicken Cracklings also. Yum Yum. 😋”

“Food is always amazing and the staff is THE BEST! Customer service is excellent.”

“Some of the best food you’ll ever eat.”

“Food was great!! They don't play with their po boys– they make a hefty sandwich. I love that their corn nuggets have a little spice to them.
The place didn't seem busy (2 inside already eating, 1 in the drive through when we entered) but it still took a few minutes for someone to come take our order. (That could be because of limited staff, though.)”

“Food is amazing and the atmosphere is lovely. It’s relaxing and the waiters are incredibly nice. Highly recommend stopping by here!!”

“There are too many to name. Everything is absolutely delicious 🤤”

“it’s awesome and it has amazing service.”

“The drinks taste amazing!”

“The food has always been delicious 😋”

“Great store, Great location and Outstanding management and staff!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Stopped in at Java Square Cafe after runnin errands in town and it turned out real nice. Coffee was hot and smooth, not burnt, and the pastry I grabbed tasted fresh like it just come out the oven. Place is cozy and clean, folks behind the counter were friendly and didn’t mind I walked in with work boots. For a small spot the prices felt fair, I’d sure swing back in for another cup.”

“Friendly staffs and fast service! Reminds me of childhood!”

“I had their crawfish for the first time yesterday and they were amazing! They were seasoned to perfection and the spice was just right.”

“I tried Papa’s Boiling Shack tonight for the first time and everything was top tier. Let’s break that down - From the customer service at the window to the employee waving at me as l drove out of the drive thru. Let’s not forget about the crawfish 🦞20/10, the corn, potato and sausage 20/10 all across the board. 1000% recommend.”

“The best snow cone the best nachos. I couldn’t ask the better. I am not from Opelousas. I usually drive back home just to get things like that or meet smoke meat, but thank God I don’t have to drive back home for a good snowball. My kids even love it when we always spend about $30-$40 every time because we just won’t everything.”

“THE ABSOLUTE BEST CRAWFISH EVER💯”

“Absolutely Delicious!
If you’re looking for mouthwatering BBQ packed with flavor, Dominick’s Smoke Wagon is the place to be! The pork steaks are tender and smoky, the BBQ chicken is juicy and seasoned to perfection, and the sausage poboys are downright addictive. Every bite tastes like it’s made with love and skill. The sides—rice dressing, potato salad, and baked beans—are just as amazing, making the whole meal feel like a true Louisiana feast.

The service is warm, friendly, and welcoming, and you can tell they care about their customers.”

“First time visiting today, 7/10/23 and so glad we did! I had the Tony Chachere on Focaccia an d my sister hand the Marilyn Monroe. We both loved them! I’ve never had Focaccia bread so soft and delicious before. It was very hard to choose from all the wonderful sandwiches and I’d definitely go back again next time I come back home to Louisiana for visit.”

“love the drinks, love the people there, and since my mom works there it’s good to be there with her.”

“This is a delightful place with country charm and good eats. I had the chicken, dirty rice, fruit and corn bread that were plate licking fantastic. My partner's cabbage was also delicious. The blackeyed peas and porkchops were the highlight of his choices. The fruit was perfect if you want go back to your childhood remembering canned fruit was the best thing ever. For good southern cooking look no further than this little county corner in Opelousas, Louisiana.”

“The food was fantastic and the service was fast. Thanks”

“I’ve been to a lot of Mexican restaurants. But nothing beats the authenticity and real Mexican flavors like a good food truck. It’s just the way to go if you’re looking for the real deal. These guys serve incredible food! And for a super affordable price. The service here was also great. They were very kind and more than willing to help us pick out what we wanted. Giving us suggestions and explaining each dish. The food is absolutely delicious and I highly recommend anyone craving some good Mexican food to give it a try.

My suggestions: You gotta try their Quesabirria Tacos! And the elote here is the best I’ve ever had. Must try!”

“Really cool spot!!! Huge drink menu. It's hard to decide what to order lol!!! They make killer drinks!!! You will be buzzed!!! Omg definitely be back again!!! Fast speedy service!!! They should have these in Georgia!!!”

“This has become one of my favorite places to eat in the morning. First off, the donuts are the best, in my opinion, in Opelousas. I tried 2 other places and the donuts ate too sugary and doesn't have that softness as Sonyas donuts. It literally melts in your mouth... My favorite is the shrimp,eggs, and rice. It's the best eggs and rice I've ever eaten. 😋 I was very surprised at the amount you get for the price. I can feed almost 3 adults... This place definitely deserves 5 🌟”

“Great location, the workers are nice and they get you through very quickly.

The inside of the store is interesting since the remodel but it is very clean and well kept”

“Great drinks! Great music & great company with Nick Stelly & David Burleson (Chip)”

“Trish is the best kind heart I know”

“10/10 Smoked Wing Plate….. It’s a must try asap. I will be back soon great service, great atmosphere and the guy Bossman (it was on his shirt) was very attentive. Thank you for great service and food. Can’t wait to go back with my crew. My drink one and I was done ….lol!!”

“Some of the best fried fish in the area...me and the wife usually always enjoy goin and gettin just a box of mostly fish. Obviously everything else is also good just that happens to be our thing.”

“Super satisfying!!! The food has been so fresh each and everytime I’ve come into town and I can’t express how clean it is. Great customer service , good quality food, and a fresh clean place to sit/eat. I always order ahead and it’s always waiting by the time I arrive with a friendly smile. 10/10 !!”

“Quick and easy and something for everyone!!!”

“I'm working and moteling in Creswell .. I got food to go once last week and again yesterday..I would a Chinese food guru and this place is delicious large portions .. I highly recommend this place..doesn't look like much from the outside but surprise d me... yum.!!!!”

“I'm a local regular. I visit about once a week, sometimes twice. Used to visit almost every day. But my last few visits has been disappointing. My favorite waitress isn't there any more. I wish they would call her up and re-hire her. I used to look forward to seeing her, now I don't have that.”

“It was a really good assortment of Mexican style food. The atmosphere was enjoyable. They offer an assortment of Mexican drinks including Mexican Coca-Cola, and several flavors of Jarritos and alcoholic beverages including a really delicious margarita. The waitstaff was friendly and knowledgeable and accommodated all of my requests including extra salsa picante. The restaurant was extremely clean and smelled nice. The food was fresh and delicious.”

“Amazing night with amazing people! My boyfriend and I had truly wonderful service and the food was great. Macie was our server and she made our experience even better than we could have expected! We will be back with our friends next weekend :)”

“We did not intend to stop here. However, it was exactly what we were wanting. And needed. We drove past it headed to a different restaurant. (We never made it to the other place)! It was a treat to say the least! Great tasting food! Texas sized portions, lol! Servers had great attitudes and kept up with our orders. Great experience these weary travelers! Thank you!”

“Me and my family have been going for over 10yrs. We absolutely love the workers, food and hospitality. Most have watched my kids grow up and enjoy interacting with them. Wonderful family restaurant with great food! See yall again soon!”

“I've been here a few times now and the food is always hot, fresh and the customer serivce is awesome. Fast friendly serivce and it's perfect if your in a hurry. The inside and outside of the business is always neat and clean.”

“I just got my order from Mcalister’s Deli in Opelousas, perfect as always! Shoutout to all the employees and John the General Manager!!! Thank y’all for providing great meals every time I order (almost everyday or twice a day!!!!)”

“Lunch visit.
The chips were thin, hot, & crispy and my Chicken & Avocado Salad was delicious, but the lettuce was old and somewhere closer to beige than green. So, I just ate the chicken & avacado and still brought some home. The portion, to me for lunchtime was large.
I think our waitress was slow...like, walked slowly.
There was quite a few other customers (even a baby shower in the back somewhere) but it was never too loud.
I'll be back!
I'd even take the same waitress. Maybe she was super tired. We all have our off days.”
