Gina's catered at my sons wedding last weekend and let me tell you..I could not have asked for a better experience! The food was beyond amazing...every guest I spoke with raved about how delicious the food was! My son said he'd never tasted wedding food that good! The staff was exceptional with professionalism and presentation...not to mention the delightful mannerisms! Delicious food was offered the entirety of the evening! We were happy to be able to take what was leftover home with us to enjoy! I would 100% recommend Gina's Catering! They were extremely easy and delightful to work with and the price was very reasonable! (They were actually less expensive than other local caterers) I will most definitely use them again if needed! So do yourself a favor and go straight to Gina's when you want amazing food for any event! 10 out of 10 for sure...you won't regret it! Benoit wedding...Schriever, La read more

Gina's at The Legion - Chicken Alfredo I already ate the side salad - American Near Me - Thibodaux, Louisiana

Comfort food! Ordered Tuesday night special- meatloaf, green beans, mashed potatoes & gravy, green salad. The meatloaf was the star- moist and flavorful like my mom would make. Portion was generous. Service was friendly and attentive. Food arrived hot and in a timely manner. Great decor, down home kind of place. Music was a classic rick station on Sirius XM- loved it. Bathroom was clean. Lots of parking. read more

Great place for lunch. We came upon Gina's by chance and was not disappointed. Generous servings and well priced. The food was made fresh and not food service or some made ahead, microwaved leftovers. The service was quick and friendly without being overly solicitous. read more

I asked members of the community what was the best "local" restaurant.. They all recommended Ginas as being the most popular among the locals. The minute I walked in I experienced local hospitality. The diners, the staff, and the decor on the wall all reeked with friendly local flair. Great menu options represented everything from local seafood to good old fashion soups, salads, and sandwiches. I loved the patriotic ambiance and the tributes to veterans. It is very fitting that it is located in the local VFW hall. read more

We are not from Thibodaux and had a little trouble finding Gina's. If it's your first time, the entry is at the back of the American LEGION building. While there are "Open" signs on the front doors we thought they were there for the American Legion and had no idea it meant the restaurant. LOL This is a place frequented by the locals. A place where everyone seems to know each other. As we were walking up a woman told us we were going to have a great lunch at Gina's. For lunch we both had the daily special catfish with white beans. I asked if mine could be grilled instead of fried and they were happy to accommodate my request. The meal came with rice, potato salad and bread. Pretty good for $7.95! We also tried the duck strips. The fried items were done perfectly - crispy and not at all oily. The beans were definitely home made and very tasty. They have a full bar. The restaurant is a little dark and decorated in a fun kitschy kind of way. Our server was friendly and efficient! Give it a try! read more

A very good place to eat. We were on our way to a football game and searched for someplace to eat and low and behold this place popped up. We read the reviews and decided to try it. We are glad that we did. The building is a little dated but that to be expected for a Veterans' home. However, it was neat and clean. The waitress was wonderful and attentive. We each ate the catfish plate and could have ordered only one to share because there is so much. It was hot and fresh. My husband found the added sugar to the fries to be unexpected but pleasantly surprising. read more

Gina's at The Legion - Hot fried strips of catfish with homemade fries. - American Near Me - Thibodaux, Louisiana

Always a great meal. Everything is good. I love the Philly Cheese steak on sour dough bread and the fries with cheese and gravy as well as the home made onion rings - YUM!!! read more

Best club sandwich. Burger was good, and I enjoyed the charred taste of the beef patty, but I know not everyone likes that. Their version of crawfish bread is pretty good. The Thursday special is the baked chicken, and that was good, but the side of mashed potatoes tasted too much like powder potatoes. Service is very average and slow, but tolerable because the food is pretty good. read more

Big portions, great pricing, & taste to die for. We've had the spaghetti and meatballs special. So delicious with huge meatballs. A few other daily specials which they have yet to disappoint. Love the live Cajun music. The customer service was excellent as well. A very homey feeling in here. read more

Gina's at the Legion is an American restaurant with a Louisiana accent. Caterer Gina moved her family business from its previous location (where it was known as The Venetian) to the American Legion Hall. She is still putting the finishing touches on the interior, but it is cozy and friendly. Menu items are straightforward: excellent thin and crispy catfish, hand-cut fries that you can order poutine-style, and the best onion rings I've ever had. My son is addicted to fried chicken, and he loved the oversized wings. The "less hot" sauce tasted tomatillo-based and was sharp and tangy in all the right ways. They have a full bar, pool table, and dance floor with live music some nights. Mostly, we felt thoroughly at home talking with everyone in the place and leaving with a dozen new friends. read more

Stopped in on 9/13/14 after a Paint Your Pal class at Purple Penguin Art Company.... class didn't get done til 10 PM and pretty much all dining options closed at 10 PM... However Stephanie D. owner of PPAC pointed me and my sister to the Venetian with a nice recommendation... Didn't pay too much attention to hours of operation since the cook said food was served til midnight when we walked in.... Venetian is a 2 part operation with a bar in the front and a diner in the back....a nice thing is each has its own dedicated entry so you ain't gotta walk thru the bar to get to the diner.... and diner is used in the truest sense.... long and narrow with only 2 booth/tables and a long eat at counter with 10 or so stools.... open grill so you can watch the food magic happen.... Now to the food.... not a big menu but if everything is prepared the way me and my sister's meals were then you can't go wrong with anything you order.... The sister went with a Shrimp poboy and that mutha was huge and stuffed full of fried shrimp...I went with the Roast Beef poboy and it was huge as well... They use a sliced Roast Beef as opposed to debris style, I could care less if it's good and folks this mutha was Damn Good! Dressed to perfection, dripping with gravy...I was licking the plate.... the onion rings we ordered as a side were just right as far as ring size and crispness.... If you're in old town Thibodaux and feeling a hunger give this place a try you just might find me there chowing on a roast beef poboy..... read more

Stepped into this little joint to grab some lunch with hubby. The space is divided in two sections, one is the main dining and bar area (complete with a shuffle board table- FTW!!!), then you have the kitchen/diner space, where we ate. Small, but complete menu. Burgers are build-your-own, which I appreciated, and ordered. It looked pretty amazing, the toppings were fresh and crisp. The lettuce used is a tender greens mix, not iceburg... I like it. Unfortunately, however, my burger was cooked medium-well to well. This is usually pretty standard; however, when ordering, I was specifically asked how I wanted my burger, to which I responded "medium". So I'm not sure why they even bothered asking me in the first place. It was definitely a handmade burger, juicy and fall-apart-in-your-mouth-tender. The seasoning was great, although my burger was WAY over seasoned in some bites. The fries.... Oh Em Gee... the fries. I love the batter on these little guys and they are crisped to perfection. You don't need to, but you can order them with your choice of cheese. Yummmmmmmmm!!! We split an order of pecan pie. I was delighted when the pie came out as a little tart sized pie, creating the perfect shell-to-filling ratio that cannot be accomplished with a slice of a big pie. The service was good. Our server was friendly and timely enough and our drinks never ran dry. I cannot wait to come back to try the catfish and maybe take advantage of their $15 bottomless glass of wine happy hour!! read more

Attended a wedding reception here. Gina catered the event as well. Great food, extremely polite workers and staff. Gina herself oversaw everything and went out if her way to make sure everything went well. Very nice people. read more

Wow. If the is a better "joint" in Thibodaux I need to know where. Insane homemade onion rings. Home made sangria, white or red, strong and fresh from the quart Mason jars. Must haves are the pork belly on anything and the build your own burgers are amazing. The cool bartender makes the desserts too, pies from marinated sangria fruit. We are leaving with big smiles on our faces. A definite place I will visit every time I'm in town. read more

Gina's at The Legion - a bar with people sitting at it - American Near Me - Thibodaux, Louisiana

Chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes - the best I've ever had! I'm not a local. If you're passing through Thibodaux, be aware that the restaurant entrance is behind the front of the American Legion. The menu is varied, should meet anyone's tastes. Highly recommended! By the way, our large order of onion rings was more than the 4 of us could eat. Very generous portion. read more

I had a wonderful cup of seafood gumbo along with the fried catfish and fries and it was all very tasty! Had the nicest waitress named Sherry, she was a sweetheart. Very easy to find just over the St. Patrick's bridge in downtown Thibodaux, located in the back of the American Legion Hall, this is truly down-home cooking. You won't be disappointed. They even gave me some oatmeal cookies to take with me for the ride home. I will be back! Support worthy family-run businesses! Gina's is worthy of your consideration. read more

Great food and great employees. Love the homemade wine and sangria. Best onion rings in town.

Good food and a very nice atmosphere! The night we went there was live Cajun Music being played. The Sangria is amazing and the hamburger steak was excellent! The chicken and vegetables also looked really good! read more

Best onion rings and burgers. Burgers are hand formed fresh when you order. Nice quiet atmosphere

Really a great find. I passed by this bar restaurant for years on my way through town but in the past year have had time to stop in at lunchtime a few times. Great sandwiches! Though it has some sports bar type stuff in it It's been here in some fashion for probably 60 years or more and feels like it, which is a very good thing. read more

Just bought a plate lunch and burger with onion rings. Was very disappointed. Will never order from this place again

I'm not a member of the American Legion Post but the food here is my new favorite for home-style cooking and fantastic desserts. Thursday night I had Baked chicken with Mac and Cheese with well seasoned green beans. The chicken and sausage gumbo is great and Chef Steve created a very tasty Mocha Creme Brulee. read more

We are fortunate to have a place like this in Thibodaux! Because I am GF my choices at most restaurants are limited. What sets this place apart is the owner carefully went over all of the choices with me, and specifically knew all of the ingredients used in each dish . Now that my friends is pretty impressive! After a minor revision ,I had a grilled shrimp salad which I enjoyed. I will be returning. PS. It is clean place! read more

Chicken-Fried-Steak....as good as it gets! This was the plate lunch today- the mashed potatoes are "real", the green beans delicious, and the CFS, wowza! The food here is always so good- comfort food that tastes fresh. The white gravy had fresh cracked pepper and was just the right quantity and consistency. So glad to have a place like this in Thibodaux! read more

It was my turn to choose a place for our book club ladies to meet, so I chose the Venetian because only two of us had been there before. The food and service was excellent. The duck strips were wonderful and everyone raved about the Asian sauce. We were all pleased and I was very happy that I chose this restaurant for our meeting. All of the ladies loved it and we definitely plan to go back again. read more
