    Seafood Gumbo (cup)

    I first tried Pincher's at Patch at the Pond in Youngsville, as they were one of the food trucks at the event. After having their gumbo, I knew I had to get to the restaurant and try other dishes. Oh my goodness, everything I order was delicious! Seafood gumbo, was loaded with crab and shrimp. Fried pickles absolutely amazing. Zydeco Shrimp Pasta was cooked perfectly. I can't wait to go back and try other items in the menu.

    First thing we noticed was how clean the restaurant was. There is a bar & the drinks we had were very good. We ordered the crawfish wontons for an appetizer and they were exceptional! Some of the best we've had. They came with Steens syrup, which I found interesting, but it was paired really great together. The Dungeness crabs & potatoes were seasoned perfectly. Everything on the Landry's Special tasted really well & was very filling. We will be returning here to try more items.

    Shrimp and grits were delicious

    Shrimp and grits were delicious Service was quick and friendly and we enjoyed everything we ordered (Hallelujah bread, shrimp and grits, onion rings and cajun chicken pasta). Will definitely be back

    Crawfish Wontons! cheesy Crawfish filling, in a fried flour pastry. delicious, just use Caution, HOT temps.

    Had a great experience here today, fast service. Food was excellent and authentically Cajun. Crawfish étouffée like momma made in Erath, LA. Will come by again for sure.

    1lb boiled shrimp, 2 potatoes cut, 1 link sausage cut up, 2 containers of dip.

    It was good. Service was slow to get waited on. Improved slightly after that. Shrimp not deveined, and a tad overcooked as they were hard to peel. Not all but more than half. Fair price. But disappointed that the shrimp were not deveined. I mean they make a tool where you could devein a pound of shrimp in less that a minute.

    Responding to Chelsa K.'s 1* review. As I am someone who was in the restaurant when it happened…read more I just think it's funny how you aren't mentioning y'all came in as 6 people and then wanted accommodations for 30 people during one of the busiest times of the night. Or that they argued with the amazing manager for nearly an hour total after being told they couldn't accommodate that size party. They're also leaving out the part where people from their group marched in and seated themselves, stood over occupied tables waiting for guests to leave, insisting the hosts clean the tables, and made the entire restaurant uncomfortable. This had nothing to do with race and everything to do with behavior. Any group acting like that would've gotten the exact same response. In short, do better. Y'all came in and ruined everyone's dinner because y'all don't know how to plan ahead. Stop blaming people for your mistakes and take accountability.

    This restaurant is known for their crawfish unfortunately I visited for a weekday lunch and they…read morewere posting a sign on the doors after I had walked in stating they don't serve crawfish until 4pm weekdays, 3pm on weekends. This may have been part of the reason its wasn't all that busy on a Tuesday lunch. Similar to some other restaurants in Louisiana I've visited, they have a side with a bar, to-go area and high tops, and a more family oriented side of the restaurant with a bunch of low top tables. Fried pork rinds are served with every table. They have daily plate lunches and the one day I came it was chicken fried steak. However, it's not usually a good idea to order CFS outside of Texas in my experience. Therefore, I ended up ordering the catfish and shrimp platter, served grilled instead and added a $5 strawberry margarita. The entree comes with a side salad but they only have seelct dressings and none which I would typically order, so i just settled on honey mustard. Margarita- for only $5 it's not bad and comes with either sugar or salt rim Catfish and shrimp platter - seasoned with a blackened seasoning but it wasn't spicy. The catfish filet was small and tasted like it was previously frozen. The shrimp were also small and didn't taste much better. Not sure I'd return if ever in Lafayette, as I was really looking for a more festive environment and more grilled options.

First Course: We began with the oyster sampler featuring Charbroiled, Bienville, Orleans, and Rockefeller styles. Each had its own unique flavor profile, and together they made a great introduction to the meal. Second Course: A crisp romaine and spring mix salad paired with a crawfish, crab, and corn bisque. The bisque was rich and comforting, perfectly balanced by the freshness of the salad. Main Course Highlights: Almond-crusted paneed chicken finished with roasted red bell pepper aioli. Grilled portabella mushroom stuffed with Gulf blue crab, shrimp, peppers, and spinach, topped with lemon aioli and parmesan. Filet Orleans (which I didn't try since I don't eat beef, but others raved about it). Dessert: The finale was a Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding drizzled with a decadent sauce -- warm, sweet, and absolutely delicious. Overall, the combination of excellent service, creative dishes, and indulgent dessert made this Yelp Event a true standout.
