    Inside of the boudin balls. Nice blend.
    Ray S.

    This place was great! Food temp hot. All cooked to order. With just the proper amount of spice for us! We had the shrimp/catfish combo. With an order of Boudin balls

    Supposed be a large strip dinner used to be double now just more and this is what you get for 8.00

    I eat here many times a week. Friendly staff and the food is always fresh. If your in the area swing by it's definitely worth it.

    The food is delicious and the staff are so friendly. I'm from California so each time I visit Crowley I have to have my Cajun Way fix. I love the spicy boudin, and I always buy the frozen links to bring home. The shrimp po-boys are delicious too!

    This is a small family owned restaurant in Crowley, La. They are known for their Boudin but I love the Seafood dinner which consists of two fried filet catfish, fried shrimps, stuff shrimp and your choice of fries, fried okra or potato salad. Well seasoned and the staff is very friendly.

    Delicious pit stop on our move to TX. I had the shrimp basket- 8 medium sized shrimp with hot fries and a roll. My husband had the gizzards basket. We added a cup of chicken and sausage gumbo. The cup was plenty to share, hearty with meat. The restaurant isn't fancy but well kept and clean. Prices good. Definitely appeared to be the spot where locals dined- fresh food for a weary traveler!

    Everyone has a special place they like to buy their boudin at....their favorite, if you will..... In Louisiana, regional variations of boudin exist from parish to parish and neighborhood to neighborhood, but the best links always come from specialty meat shops, grocery stores, and restaurants that make it in-house. You are as likely to find a true boudin craftsman in a gas station convenience store with an added kitchen as you are in an established meat market. For many, boudin is the essential Cajun fast food, quickly filling the hunger void at any time of the day or night. I'm going to call this a beginner's link. It is a mild and simple approach to the link. Some might call it bland. It's important to remember that Crowley is the "Rice Capital of America." So, if the boudin at the Cajun Way Boudin King seems to have a lot of rice in it....well.... I happen to really enjoy Cajun Way's boudin as well as their other offerings. I find that many places try to make a meatier boudin making it greasy. I'm a fan and if I'm traveling through at lunchtime, I usually stop here.

    Mild boudin had little flavor. Gumbo was meaty. Served as links. Politestaff.

    For a truck stop, the food here is always great. Some year or two back, the kitchen suddenly…read moreimproved noticeably. I now have lunch here several times a month. Suggestions are shrimp dishes, gumbo, crawfish, & sandwiches. Over half the customers are locals & regulars. As other local eateries decline, Rice Palace improves. Rear (North side) parking is easiest & offers some shade. Auto fuel at West side entry, truck services on North plaza. Do try this restaurant.

    Here today! Myself…read moreand 3 of my coworkers was on our way to Florida, 2 were truck drivers. For anyone that doesn't know, truck drivers and bus drivers know the best places to eat. I had no suggestions, all I knew was I knew of the best place to get some boudin balls. Picture the 4 of us hungry hippos talking over each other wanting what we want and all claiming we knew the best place to get the best of what we craved. I cleared the least hours so when it came to driving, NOT me but I totally forgot we were passing through Louisiana so I acted exhausted and chose the rear of the van so count me out the equation hahaha. The rule of thumb is the driver gets the final say on where we stop to eat and he CLAIMED the place he knew had great food including boudin balls (I'm in the rear flipping through my Yelp reviews searching for the place I was insisted on stopping at). Ok so we pull up to this deserted hole in the wall (see picture) parking lot irritated voicing my disappointment and so did the other 2 except the driver who was reassuring us the food was DA BEST, he raved on and on about their food was life changing. We walk in and the place and it's DESERTED, but I did see a couple eating boudin balls so ok fine. Our waitress took our drink order, I wanted an Arnold Palmer and she explained their tea wasn't sweet because majority of their customers were seniors. As we're looking over the menu the driver wasn't, he still insisting the food was da chiii and already knew what he wanted, I'm looking for BOUDIN BALLS hangry (hungry/angry) coworker 3 saying we needed to go elsewhere, coworker 4 asking is the food even Cajun and do they have seasoning she could add. As we're ordering I asked WHERE ARE THE DANG boudin balls, she say they don't have them and what I saw the couple had was fried mushrooms balls. The driver who chose the restaurant was conveniently in the restroom! We all order and waited impatiently for our meals still complaining and small talking. Our meals arrive and the 3 of us looking at our plates like toddlers deciding if we was going to eat what we was given, the waitress said it's a lot she knows. Naw lady, this a hole in the and inflation too high to waste on food we won't like, this Louisiana and we know there's better in this State. WE took our first bites in unison and said DAMN looks are deceiving! THEEE flavor was there! Each of us started raving about what we ordered and offering each other a taste of Louisiana cooking! The portions were enough to take with us since we would be arriving in Florida late and had to clear 8 hrs before we took over our buses. We was so satisfied with the portions of out left overs that we didn't need to spend anymore money, we want to sleep the rest of the ride. WE highly recommend Rice Palace if you want to try a different restaurant in Louisiana, or a budget because eating on a road trip isn't as affordable anymore we have to be cost conscious. Here today! Yup will be back tomorrow!
