It is pronounced Lag-Knee-App, make sure you say it that way a lot when you come visit us. All the cool kids do. Best Stop is a must stop for anyone road tripping along I-10 in Louisiana. Who needs a Bucees when you have this place. The aforementioned boudin balls are the best road trip snack ever. Fried spicy, cheesy, delectable delights. On my most recent visit, I got their in house made beef jerky, homemade pork skins, the boudin balls and some jalapeno honey mustard to take home. All of it wonderful. One of my buddies who I was road tripping with, was smart enough to bring a cooler. He bought frozen boudin balls, a few pounds of boudin, some smoked sausage and some sort of stuffed chicken. This place has all kinds of meat! I was jealous and I will definitely bring a cooler next time.

Don's has the classic gas station setup, a ready to eat counter with BBQ and Cajun options, snack aisles, and fridge full of Cajun specialties. We ordered cracklings, boudin balls and crawfish pie. The boudin balls were the stand out. The cracklings were fresh and crunchy, but the seasoning is underwhelming. The crawfish pie missed the mark completely, not much crawfish, very doughy and the seasoning was pretty bland. Compared to the undisputed champion (looking at you, Billy's) with huge lines 24/7, Don's is a good option if you're willing to trade some of the quality with the convenience of no wait time.

Spicy taste straight from the swamplands of Lafayette. It is a must stop for us, on our way to Florida each year. The boudin and cracklings are sold by weight and in my opinion, very formidable. Some may even say, around here, "C'est bon!" The inside has a few tables to sit and eat as well as a few picnic tables outside. The bathrooms are clean and make a nice pit stop for our road trip. Just make sure you Geaux early enough before they ain't dere no more.

A Great Local Spot Worth Visiting!…read more We stopped by this small mom & pop restaurant with a larger group, and everyone ordered something different -- and everyone left happy! The service was top notch, and the staff made us feel right at home with their friendliness and attention to detail. While the French fries were a little cold and a bit over-seasoned, the rest of the food made up for it. I had the turkey burger -- and wow, it was amazing! My daughter is still talking about her fried chicken sandwich. All in all, a solid local find, and we'll definitely be back for round two!

But honestly, the flavor on the crawfish was so good that i didn't miss it too much. Go! It was amazing. Just know you may not get a cold brew with your crawfish depending on when you're there.

They have a good beer collection. Actually an excellent beer collection. However, until yesterday I had never attempted to have lunch there. I ordered a sandwich and small mac n cheese. I went to the end of the deli counter but it was closed. I asked one of the half dozen employees where I needed to pay for my lunch? I was told I would need to go to the front of the store and pay there. I asked "can I pay when I check out with my groceries?" The deli person who made my sandwich said "sure". I sat down next to my basket full of my items I intended to purchase, took one bite of my sandwich when the store manager appeared (Belinda Long) and asked me "did you pay for that sandwich?" Confusion Embarrassment Anger! I told Ms Long that the deli employee told me that I could pay when I checked out. Ms Long stated "who told you that which one which one!" At this point I took the uneaten sandwich and mac m cheese to the front of the store and paid for my order. I also told the store manager she could keep the groceries. This was a most unpleasant experience. I have never been treated with such disrespect at a grocery store. This encounter points to poor management habits and poor customer service

We had the shrimp poboy and fries- which we split between two people and were plenty full. They have Cajun seasoning, hot sauce and plenty of napkins on the tables. You can eat indoor or outdoor.

We had a poboy in New Orleans a few weeks before and it was no comparison to the one we had at Old Tyme--filled with large shrimp and plenty of them. We would detour here again.

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!
