7 Best American Restaurants in Opelousas

Billy's Boudin & Cracklin American • $$
904 Short Vine St, Opelousas

“The only reason I’m not giving them a 5 is because the employees could do just a bit better job of greeting and explaining things to customers who may have never been there before.With that being said, my mom and I stopped in by chance on a weekend road trip and grabbed some boudin balls and a crawfish pie for lunch. It was so good that we rerouted our return trip to buy a couple hundred dollars in frozen foods to carry home. We also tried the chicken cracklins for the first time and O M G! I don’t want to accuse them of doing anything illegal but there may be crack in those cracklins! Yum yum yum for my tum tum tum!Seriously, everything we had was amazing! Crawfish pies and chicken cracklins are a must though! Enjoy!“

“We love Toby's brunch buffet. Not a lot of vegetable offerings but delicious food. I'm honestly not eating a lot of vegetables anyway when they're offering seafood dishes and cheesy potatoes, rice and gravy, etc. with all the breakfast offerings as well. I definitely don't leave hungry.“

“The boiled shrimp dinner was great. A little on the spicy side for me but I still enjoyed it and would order it again. Our server was perfect. Our food came out quick and accurate. Our drinks never ran dry and she checked in on us several times. Her quality customer service was appreciated. The atmosphere of the bar was what I expected. The table was clean. The bathrooms were clean and stocked. I would eat here again.“

Back In Time Sandwich Shop • $
123 W Landry St, Opelousas

“I'd always meant to stop at the little local place on the square, near the Bowie Oak. I'm so glad I finally did. It's tiny and charming, and has the most friendly and helpful owner, Ms. Wanda! Back in Time sort of combines an antique and collectible shop with a cafe! It's cozy and easy to like. It's a great place to stop at if you are passing through as it's right on US Highway 190 West right on the south side of the courthouse square. The menu is something to explore. It has a wide variety of soups, salads, and wraps all of which have interesting names. Some are named after local historic figures, others have names associated with famous persons or movie stars. All of them are tasty and vary from the light to the fully filling. The salad offerings also go from the small to the whole meal variety. This is one of those great little home town places that one just has to experience to understand. You'll find yourself stopping there next time you pass through.“

“Came in with a group of 14. I know, not a place you would typically go to with a bigger group but we had family in from out of town that had never been to a Waffle House and wanted to go. The place was packed but somehow they were able to get us all in, sitting in same area, in a relatively quick time. Service was just as good and attentive as if we had gone to any bigger place.“
