Ordered dinner using Door Dash in a late Saturday afternoon. We love about 10 minutes away from B and N and our food showed up still hot and fresh, like we were eating in the restaurant! The Super Tenderloin is still so amazing. The fries and curly fries were good too. We always enjoy B and N and is my favorite tenderloin in town!

This is my favorite breakfast spot when I visit my son. I loved the breakfast skillet, I could customize and have potatoes, sausage tomatoes and eggs the way I liked. Fair priced and good coffee!

1.8 Overall I have had B&N recommended one time since being in Lafayette. Decided to try it why I was waiting on my vehicle to be serviced across the street. The food was all cooked fine, served hot. The coffee was likely the best part aside from a very sweet server. The omelette was the whipped fluffy style, I prefer old fashioned folded omelette. The ingredients were just laid in the center and not incorporated at all into the eggs. The potatoes were well cooked but bland, gravy was void of any flavor and biscuit seemed to be from the previous day and warmed on the griddle, very dense and unremarkable. The whole breakfast was unremarkable to be honest. It was good to finally try it but I don't believe I'll go back. To many other options that are far better.

Friendly environment and good food. The way a diner should be. Big portions. Reasonable prices. Clean restaurant. Excellent biscuits and gravy. Delicious tenderloins. Attentive service. I like that there are regulars who sit around and solve the world's problems with friendly banter. My iced tea never reaches the bottom before it is refilled. Maggie is an amazing waitress. This is the kind of place you rush by without thinking about but for the price of the sack of fast food breakfast at your side, you will have a better meal and a warm feeling if you stop here instead. My wife likes black coffee. She's never disappointed. Cash only but there is an ATM on hand if you forget. Worth the stop.

This spot exceeded every expectation. The exterior seems small, however the inside feels quite spacious with lots of tables. The portions are huge and the food is good quality, all at a decent price. Our waitress, Corey, was super sweet and refilled our coffee at least 5 times. We will be visiting again!

Stopped in here on a cold and rainy Saturday afternoon and all I can say is this place is a treasure! I'm a new Midwesterner and after I got over my Culture shock of no sweet tea (listen folks, cold tea and adding sugar on the table isn't the same... just make some sweet tea!) I dove head first into what is my new favorite thing in the world. The breaded tenderloin sandwich! And this place has a freakin' good one! First of all, I got the small one, but it was still the size of my head, and I got a HUGE head! I can't imagine who could eat the big one, but I wanna party with those people! Crinkle cut fries, good coffee, and the best thing... the owner was a cool cat, service was good, food was great... like I said. I can live without the sweet tea for a home run place like this! Bring cash, no plastic here, which is cool. They have an ATM and the few is only a buck so they get it... I don't mind helping a little local place like this hide some cash from the man! I had to learn proper etiquette for eating a tenderloin sandwich, I chose the "cut and stack" method... lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle and Mayo. I couldn't finish it, and I'm a lumberjack grizzly bear wrassler type of dude. Come here, give em your money, the prices are cheap, but the food is a gold mine!

Ordered this place from uber eats, it came fast but at a price. The food was i kid you not dripping wet and had a very whacky odor.

The attitudes of the employees. The older cook has a very bad attitude. They don't list when you order. I got the wrong order.

One of my favorite tenderloins in Lafayette. Friendly staff. I've only done carry-out so far. Please note that they only accept cash.

Great service great food everyday no matter the time of day experience short wait timesread more

I had the misfortune of experiencing the worst breakfast in years at this establishment. I ordered…read morea ham and Swiss omelette, specifically requesting that my eggs not be brown. To my dismay, they arrived completely overcooked and unappetizingly brown. To add insult to injury, my toast was burnt to a crisp, nearly charred to a shadow of what it should have been. When I pointed this out to the waitress, her nonchalant response was, "It's kind of burnt," as if there are acceptable levels of burn. In my opinion, when the toast is predominantly black, it clearly falls into the category of "burnt." The overall quality of the meal was abysmal, and it was evident that the staff couldn't have cared less about my experience. While I was not charged for the meal, I wouldn't have paid for it even if I had to. There's simply no way I could bring myself to eat here again. Curiously, my husband ordered a similar omelette, but his came out perfectly yellow and appetizing, along with toast that was actually edible. This made me wonder if my request not to burn my food inadvertently insulted the cook, leading to my meal being intentionally scorched. After sending the dish back, I received not a word of apology or even an offer to prepare something else. It was a complete lack of customer service. This review, without a doubt, has to be the most negative I've ever written. Normally, I refrain from posting bad reviews because I understand that everyone can have an off day. If a restaurant attempts to rectify their mistakes, I tend to be forgiving. But in this case, the food was nothing short of garbage on a plate, and the indifference from the staff was glaring.

Ripple & Company - Brisket Birria Sandwich

Ripple & Company

I almost got the Smokehouse Nachos, because I love a good smoked-meat-and-chip situation at a…read morebarbecue joint. But then mine eyes doth glanceth upon the words "Brisket Birria Sandwich" on the menu, and I had to pivot. I'm so glad that I went with my heart. The Brisket Birria Sandwich at Ripple & Company consists of smoked brisket, white cheddar, red onions and cilantro, all melted and pressed between a roll, and served with birria consomme. You dip the sandwich in the consomme and eat, kind of like a French dip. Dip and eat, dip and eat, until you can't dip and eat anymore, either because it's all gone or because your stomach is about to burst. It's a big sandwich, and it is also served with incredibly delicious fries, which doesn't help with the stomach bursting thing. This whole meal is amazing and I would visit Ripple & Company just to eat this exact thing again. I visited with people who ate at Ripple & Company quite frequently, and they got their favorites: The Black & Gold Pub Burger, and the Cajun Shrimp Tacos, with a side of roasted Brussels sprouts. Everyone enjoyed everything. As a nice surprise, one of my dining mates ordered the Smokehouse Nachos for us to share, as if we didn't have enough food. But there's a different chamber in my stomach for chips and nachos, and luckily, that chamber was empty, so it worked out just fine. The nachos are great, with tender pieces of shredded pork, pickled jalapenos, a vegetable mix, green onions and chipotle ranch drizzled on top. The service here is great: We were seated right away, ordered right way, and our food came out within a good amount of time. The decor is car and transportation themed, with traffic signs and hubcaps hung up on the walls. Very fun.

Meh. As cool as it looked inside, I found the functional stop light annoying. Service was mediocre…read more I feel like everyone was emotionless. It was kinda creepy. The spoon bread was not good. AND, not that I'm counting this against them, but how are you gonna sell me spoon bread and not give me a spoon? Lol. Shrimp tacos were also meh. Very bitter. Shrimp was a good size, but lacking something in the flavor department. The fries were good though. My friend complained about her burger being good, but excessively greasy. Sure enough, I saw a pool of grease on her plate that was dripping out of her burger. I wish I had taken a picture
