JOHNSON'S BOUCANIERE REVIEWS

I was in from out of town and had a hankering for brisket… at 10:30am. This place knocked it out of the park. The two sides were great (green beans, and Mac & cheese). The brisket though, was phenomenal. It’s the kind of brisket that dipping it in bbq sauce makes it less good, It’s just amazing on its own. I’ll be stopping by anytime I drive through Laffy.

Absolutely amazing food! The boudin is quite possibly the best I've ever had. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking and the seating options make it nice for any occasion.

Good food and great people. The smoked pulled pork grilled cheese is the best!

BLANCHARD'S BARBEQUE REVIEWS

The food was to die for! My cousins and I had a get together and we spent almost $160 on BBQ getting a pound of each meat. When I tell we couldn’t wait to dig in once they brought the plates out it looked so good. The ribs sticky or normal are so tender and juicy almost fall off the bone but it still has a bite to it. The lean and fatty brisket was phenomenal I’m talking pull apart to the touch tender and the smoke ring and the glistening inter muscular fat looked so good. You don’t even need their sauces because the BBQ by itself is just a treat. Don’t even get me started on the Birria Tacos they were so good stuffed to the brim with meat,cheese,and everything between. After about an hour everything was said and done we all felt stuff,full,and extremely satisfied that we chose this spot. The staff were very quick to clean a table and get us seated after we ordered and not even 5 minutes or so our food was out on the table ,the wait time was minuscule. Plus they were checking up on us and were impressed this group of 4 could tackle that much BBQ. The customer service was great and so friendly and to be there around New Years time felt so good to be surrounded by family and such a great atmosphere. 10/10 Recommend this place when your in Lafayette.

Ordered for my staff. Brisket, pulled pork was slicked and pulled fresh. Potato salad, beans and Mac were perfect. Love this place and will continue to do business with yall.

Their brisket burger is absolutely life changing. All their food is good but this one in particular is mind blowingly good.

ACADIAN SUPERETTE REVIEWS

Haven't been here since forever. Burger and fresh cut fries, great. Coworkers got plate lunches, very good. Will be back. Update, got the Reuben. It was delicious. Still awesome hand cut fries. Update, got the roast beef poboy. Awesome! Another update, came in for the Chicago - not to be missed!

Was in town for business and wanted to get a quick bite before dropping my coworker off at the airport. What a treat! The Bahn Mi was out of this world! My coworker had the burger and was amazed at the flavor. Next time we come back through, we will definitely pick more items to try.

Great neighborhood bbq/plate lunch/sandwich spot. You won’t regret a visit here - the smoked chicken club was A+.
