We visited this restaurant to meet our family from Alexandria (we flew into N.O.) The service was very good and food was excellent. We tried the boudin (first time) and the appetizer platter was plentiful and delicious. So were all of our entrees -- from hamburgers to po boys and beyond.

We enjoyed a dinner here while on business. The menu was varied and interesting and it was difficult to decide among the great selection. There were a couple minor issues with dinner (undercooked steak and a sticker still on the red pepper on the vegetable skewer) - but they were resolved quickly. The food was tasty and the service was... More

I was a bit skeptical when this restaurant first opened. Everyone in Lafayette wants to own a Cajun restaurant it seems. But I was suitably impressed by the food. I ordered the crawfish pie and my friend ordered the blacked chicken pasta. The crawfish pie was a lot bigger than I expected! Alas, I ate it all and had to... More

This restaurant may look small from the outside but it sure makes up for it by serving big flavors of food on the inside!! You must try the Tuna Avocado Stack with their homemade chips, the Swamp Legs are also a huge must. I have eaten in many places all over including New Orleans and consider myself a pretty good...

A stop on a mini food tour & tried the swamp legs! OMG!! First time I ate alligator that was NOT tail! The mango-sauced duck legs were surprisingly light -- had a hard time believing it was not duck. Very good! Can't wait to go back & try a few more of their innovative menu items.

When our favorite crawfish place was bought and turned into a Cajun Restaurant, we were hesitant. Well, the food does not disappoint! It beats any chain hands down and gives some of the more well know Cajun restaurants a run for their money. Our favorites are - crawfish pie, the blackened chicken wraps, The grilled vegi salad (the dressing is... More

Steve and Pat's Bon Temps Grill is a great place to dine. Their eclectic menu is still South Louisiana with a twist. I love the Tuna Tartar with crispy fried plantains. The fish tacos are great, in fact it is all good. Thank you Steve and Pat.

We had dinner at Bon Temps as part of a small group outing. The service was outstanding, the food really, really wonderful, and a good microbrew selection. We especially loved the alligator "wings", the sausage and the stuffed mushrooms as appetizers. The grilled shrimp skewers were okay, but the crawfish potpie was exceptional. Would definitely recommend this wonderful establishment for... More
