    This place is truly a local gem and I could feel the Black excellence and legacy as soon as I entered. I cannot recommend this place enough--Laura's Two is a spot that dishes out delicious soul food in the heart of Lafayette. Not only is the food fresh and made-to-order, the staff is also friendly and extremely efficient at communication. There is a bit of a wait if you're ordering things like catfish or fried chicken, but the sides are already cooked and ready for the taking. We especially enjoyed the shrimp and grits, mac and cheese (the best I've had in my entire life!), and the rice and gravy. My husband also enjoyed his catfish and while my stuffed turkey neck wasn't super flavorful, it was very tender with pieces falling off the bone. All in all, I really enjoyed the food, the hospitality and the heavy portion sizes served up at Laura's. The dining area is also very comfy and the bathrooms are cozy and clean. We're already planning another a trip so we can go back and try more items like the fried chicken or the meatball stew!

    I haven't been in a good while and they did not disappoint. This is some of the best food cooked with love in Lafayette. Everything is always so delicious. All of the ladies who work there are very friendly and welcoming. The foods at the counter looked so delicious. I did order a chicken fried steak though which they cook to order. Tue vegetables were like grandma used to make, so good. Green beans were fire. It is a smaller place so if you don't get there early you may have to wait for a table but I was first in line so no issues. I will be back soon. I have missed it so.much.

    Stuffed Stuffed Baked Turkey Wing * as seen on mrchimetime . All plates served with rice & gravy + two sides (cabbage and red beans).

    We've had this restaurant on our list "to try" fr awhile now. So glad we finally did! SO, So friendly!! All smiles as soon as you walk in! Had the stuffed turkey wings, cabbage, rice and gravy, and red beans. Delish!! And huge portions! Next time I'll try the cake too - was too full this time around.

    I was reminded by a popular streamer about the great shrimp and grits which I had not tried yet, but I quickly remedied this overnight. I arrived early and received the same home greeting that Laura's is known for as well as the great food. I ordered the Catfish which was crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, but the seasonings the seasonings was perfection and the fillet was more than filling. Do not forget I came for the Shrimp and Grits, absolutely the best I've had, the seasoning with spice and enough of the sauce to mix into every bite, the shrimp was perfection, the grits cooked in a way that soaked up the savory sauce. Just a great experience. Tip if you haven't been there, you can eat at the table, as they will call when you're order is ready, as most order takeout. This should be on all foodies list for Lafayette.

    I do not live in Lafayette but, my entire family does. So, I have been visiting multiple times a year my entire life. However, I've only been to Lauras once in my 31 years...a shame. This past Sunday, I wanted to eat well and bring my great aunt something filling and soulful. It was only 11:45a so, I figured the time a day provided a great opportunity to try the famous " Lauras Two". When I arrived, on Sunday, the line was just into the dining room--not too bad--but I did see a few people leave because of the wait. Trust me, though, this is the kind of food worth standing in line for! (And yes, I've heard the line can sometimes stretch all the way to the exit, so go prepared.) I ordered the famous stuffed turkey wings with rice dressing, green beans, and sweet potatoes. Adding extra gravy on top of the rice dressing was a great call--highly recommend it! The turkey was seasoned to perfection, which is no small feat since turkey can sometimes be bland. Laura's Too, however, nailed it. Every bite was flavorful, and the sides were just as satisfying. To top it off, I tried the featured dessert, a pecan cheesecake, which was the perfect sweet finish to an incredible meal. If you're looking for authentic, well-seasoned Southern food that hits all the right notes, Laura's Too is the spot. Just be ready for a bit of a wait, especially on Sundays, but once you taste the food, you'll know it was worth it. Highly recommend!

    Best soul food in the United States, I've been to 40/50 states and this is easily in my top 3 of all time plates I've tried. Don't walk, RUN here. Customer service is very friendly. Will travel back to Louisiana for this alone.

    Traveling home from to Houston from work. I found them gem by accident. I'm glad I stopped, the food is everything. You will not be disappointed with flavor and spices. The atmosphere is inviting, the guest eating all welcome you. It is a relaxed and clean establishment. You can't beat the greeting when you walk in, of them wanting to have you here, and asking where you are visiting from. I will be back soon and I am taking other dishes home to try! Come through when you get a chance!

    The food was as delicious as the reviews indicated. We were a party of 3 and were all impressed with the food, seasonings, and portions. We all left with a bag. Dinner is ready. Service was as expected, servers were there when we needed them. There was ample seating. The prices were a little surprising for lunch. Nothing is under $17. We will be returning, because we enjoy eating food prepared with love and served with kindness, and I forgot to purchase a T-shirt.

    Outstanding! The food is great, and the family owned environment is the best! I love stopping by here every time I'm in Lafayette. Great food, lovely people, and excellent service. All around 5 star recommend

    Stuff turkey wings and pork steaks

    Great homemade cooking! First timers need to be aware that they have different menu items on different days. Though the stuffed turkey wings are on the menu everyday, should def get this, really good! We went there on a Sunday and got the stuffed wings and the pork steak, both very good but the pork steak was the better in my opinion. All the people were nice even the other customers. Get in line and figure out what you want by looking at the chalk board on the left as soon as you enter. Everyone was super sweet and nice! The food was all amazing!

    It's time to refresh my review from 5 years ago. I'll cut to the chase. Nothing much has changed. It's still a 5 star restaurant. Without repeating too much from my original review, I stopped by for lunch on Thursday while driving thru town. The steam table is still there with its selection of meats and side dishes and they will fill your plate to order. Most meals are $15-$16 and come with one meat, white rice and gravy and two sides. I had several options that day but went with the stuffed Turkey wings with green beans and cornbread dressing along with the included rice and gravy. The meals here are huge. For what it costs you receive considerable value as you get enough food to take the leftovers home for another meal the next day. Those wings have about the same amount of meat on them as a 1/2 chicken and tasted sooo good. I love their rice and gravy and could make a meal of just that. The green beans were served country style in a delicious sauce. The cornbread dressing was different as to what I am used too as it was dark brown in color but very moist, flavorful and enjoyable to eat. My only complaint about dining here is that they only serve canned drinks. I really miss the self serve drink machine that they had when I first dined here. Please bring that back. If you love real Cajun food, love a great value and love delicious food, you will love Laura's Two. Come eat here!

    Whole Catfish plate
    James L.

    This review is from my eating here from about a month ago. I ordered the whole fried catfish plate. Which came with white rice and gravy ( I asked for light gravy) potato salad and corn machoux. Everything was pretty good just wish you would get a little more food. Considering the cost of the plate was $18.00 not including tax and tip (22.00). The best part of this meal was the fish. Well cooked and seasoned ( definitely not salty). The corn machoux was also pretty good.

    Lacey D.

    My husband and I had a fantastic experience for our first trip to Lauras II. The line was long (we went at 12:30) and by the time we got to the window they were out of a handful of things. We got: baked chicken with rice and gravy, seafood okra and baked beans; stuffed turkey wing with rice dressing, seasoned green beans and seafood okra; and a link of bbq sausage. Everything was fantastic! There was so much flavor and spice. I would come back earlier in the day to try other staple items.

    Noah's Café in Lafayette is truly a hidden gem that captures the heart of Southern cooking. I came…read morehere three times in four days, and each visit reminded me why good food and good people make the best combination. The first time, I ordered the barbecue ribs served over rice dressing, and they were tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. On my second visit, I tried the smothered okra, which came with a whole quarter piece of chicken and sausage over rice--comfort food at its finest. For my last visit, I couldn't resist the ribs again, this time paired with yams, coleslaw, and pork stew. Every dish tasted like it was made with love right in someone's home kitchen. The staff is kind and welcoming, and even though there's usually a line if you arrive later in the day, it moves quickly. They're only open a few days a week from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., so plan ahead for lunch or an early dinner. The menu changes daily, but there's always a reliable grill menu to choose from. Inside, the setting is casual and relaxed--just what you'd want while enjoying a plate of real Louisiana soul food

    Uh, so let me preface this by saying, the customer service was super stellar and for that alone I…read morewould revisit; however, with the utmost respect to the owners of this establishment. I think they need a new recipe for the cornbread dressing and the macaroni and cheese. These two items were extremely lackluster and not good at all. Now, the ribs, candied yams and the roast pork were great and delish but those other sides need some help. The cornbread dressing was dark brown teetering on black in color, which I've never seen in my life. And the macaroni was just that with little to no cheese. The atmosphere is also very inviting and comfortable to sit and dine in. I meant I would return and try other options because the lady at the register was super sweet and kind but in all honesty, those two sides need a recipe overhaul.
