Uncle T's Oyster Bar absolutely lives up to the reputation. The chargrilled oysters were…read morephenomenal, and the variety was impressive. Every style we tried was perfectly cooked and full of flavor--honestly hard to pick a favorite because they were all that good. This is the kind of place that makes you want to come back the next day and order everything again. Great atmosphere, excellent seafood, and exactly what you hope for from a Louisiana oyster bar. Definitely worth the stop if you're anywhere near the Lafayette area.

I don't know who Uncle T is, but that dude knows how to make great food that is incredibly popular…read more Uncle T's is a busy place. I didn't even know that the "Boudin Capital of the World" had this many people. The place was packed, and I visited on an off time on an off day. I guess they don't have any off times or off days. Our wait was quoted at 40 minutes, and it was fairly accurate. They have a full bar to grab a drink and chat with friends while you wait. You can also grab a drink and stand alone in the corner, but that would be creepy as hell. Once seated, I was ready for some food. My kid and I shared some of their firecracker chargrilled oysters, and they were wonderful. Ensure your order has charbroiled oyster,s and you will be happy. The table also had an order of fried onion rings, and they, too, were excellent. My entrée was fried shrimp. When it arrived, I was concerned as the batter looked a little darker than I am used to. One bite, and that concern went out the window. These were some perfectly fried shrimp. This is an awesome place.

We we're greeted by the beautiful hostess right away and this place was gaining customers by the second so I was happy there was no wait. Our amazing server came right away, and we ordered drinks. The drink menu didn't have much of a variety but the food menu made it for it. I had wine and my wife had a baybreeze (I believe that's the name). We order the Oysters Supreme and it was so dang good. My wife loves oysters and I am a newbie when it comes to eating them ( this was my second time in my life) and I was blown away! It was sooooo good. Then we shared an entree, called the Shuckin' Flounder. Talk about delicious!!! My favorite was the bread pudding. We took it to go and I loved that there was a note with bread pudding to give you instructions on heating annnnnddd to brag on how good it is. It did not disappoint!!! It was just as amazing at home as it was if it would have eaten it at the restaurant. I was skeptical because of this place because of the choice in seating (once again we come from restaurants and service) and there was a fan behind me but I must say, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The menu is a bit pricey but it's oysters and seafood! We will absolutely be back! Thank you all for such a great evening!

My wife and I sat at the bar, her favorite place that we kibitz some. Bartender was our waitress and server. She seemed to be pretty busy as she also had the other tables in the lounge as well. The place itself as well kept. I order the oyster sampler to start with and Phil's seafood festival as my main course and my wife ordered the popcorn shrimp. Lo and behold all the dishes came out at once and we were overwhelmed. That was really the only down check for our meal as each of the dishes were delicious! We were talked into a bread pudding for dessert. That was delicious, however so very rich! Until next time!

Went last night…read more Driveway & parking are rough, glad we were in a JEEP. The boiled crawfish were "medium" size & still expensive. Advice: Call ahead & go early. The seasonings except salt are applied to the outsides of the shells after cooking. So Cayenne gets on hands, eventually on lips & nose, then eyes. Just order "regular/mild" and season with the dipping sauce. We never do it that way at home. The underlying problems are from difficult crawish crop & supplies, for several years now. All the crawfish places are experiencing this. Overall, this has been an excellent place for boiled local seafoods. Will wait to try again in a few weeks. The shrimp are fine, "A-OK", & a bit less expensive.

We tried a few different bites, and everything was exactly what you want from a spot like this -- flavorful, fresh, and satisfying every single time. Food: The food is really the main attraction here. Nothing overly fancy or trying too hard, just consistently good food that delivers every time. Everything we tried was solid, and it's the kind of place where you already know you're leaving happy before you even order. Service: Service was smooth with no issues at all. The staff kept things moving, and the experience was easy from start to finish. Ambiance: Billy's has that classic Louisiana stop-through feel to it. Nothing extravagant, but it doesn't need to be. The food speaks for itself. Overall: Not much to rave about besides the food -- and honestly, that's all it needs. Billy's is officially one of my can't-miss stops anytime I'm driving through Lafayette. I'm never passing this place up.

I was super excited for this place because I haven't had boudin in so long. I got cracklins,…read moreBilly's Boudin and the smoked boudin. The cracklins had a little bit of fat and meat on them which I wasn't used to. I'm just used to the fried crispy skin. It tasted more like fried/seasoned pork belly. The seasoning is really good though. My favorite boudin was Billy's more than the smoked one but my fiance liked the smoked flavor more. I wish we took pics but we just ate it in the car. The casing was a little tough to bite through so I sliced it and scooped out the insides. Although the Billy's boudin is good, I don't know if it was good enough to drive from Texas for it. I need to search for more places while I'm here.

I came specifically for the crawfish and the Fish Out of Water appetizer, which I order every single time. That appetizer alone keeps me coming back. There is almost always a wait, so I typically head straight to the bar, settle in, and enjoy a cocktail while my table is being prepared. This visit I tried the Bayou Mermaid. It is sweeter than my usual drink preference, but it was surprisingly very good and well balanced. I believe my server's name was Haley, though I may be mistaken. Either way, she was attentive, pleasant, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The crawfish were amazing as always, seasoned well and served hot. It is consistently worth the wait. If you are in Lafayette during crawfish season, The Cajun Table should absolutely be on your list.

The flavor was great! More than just the powdered seasoning, you could tell the boil was seasoned properly. It was late March when we came through and we had a few too many small crawfish but not worth complaining about. Also, they had no boudin which was disappointing but again, we came for the crawfish!

The seafood gumbo is very good. The fried fish, shrimp, chicken is all great and the seafood balls are wonderful too. These are the typical items I get but there's lots of other options including salad, dessert, pasta dishes, etc. And the kicker is this buffet is less than $20 per person. But eat what you take because they reserve the right to charge for wasted food. Love this place. I go often.
