Shrimp poboy
Richard B.

Great little cafe Daily specials and a good selection of regular items. Had a fried shrimp poboy with fries. Fries were hot crispy and very good The fried shrimp were also well breaded and fried. Bread was fresh Very happy :)

a menu for the day specials
Amanda B.

Awe man, this place is the PERFECT spot to go to for down home southern cooking just like your grandma makes! They have daily lunch specials so today they just so happened to offer beef tips with a choice of two sides. YUMMMMMMMMY!!! The beef tips were seasoned so well and so flavorful, I ate the entire serving it was so good and brought me back to when I was a kids eating at my grandparents. The mac & cheese was tasty too as well as the green beans. Very small location and a lot of regulars come in so get there early to beat the lunchtime rush. Staff is super friendly, they have really good prices and the food comes out fast and hot! I will definitely be back next time I am visiting my family!

Shrimp Plate  Lunch Special
William B.

Generous portions, fast service, good prices, and friendly local atmosphere, make this small place a winner. The plate lunch specials are a must order. I enjoyed the shrimp cooked to perfection with rice and 2 sides as well as a salad. The Black Eyed Peas were scrumptious and the green beans were awesome. The Ice T was also very refreshing.

Crab cakes to die for
Vern G.

Crab cakes with crawfish cream sauce; I have not had many crab cakes in my life. If every crab cake could be like these, I might not much else. Amazing amount of crab, and just enough breading to make them slightly crispy on the outside. The sauce, with bits of crawfish, was decadent, in every good way. Alligator bites; The batter was relatively light, and thin, allowing you to fully experience the alligator meat, which was delicious Corn & crab bisque; There was so much crab in this dish! That's not a complaint! Velvety creamy goodness, with a generous amount of corn. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! David was our server, and was the model of professionalism. I was visiting a friend in the area, who suggested we try Ruby's. If I lived in the area, I would be here regularly.

This quaint cafe has precious curb appeal and the friendliest welcome when you enter! I ordered one of the daily specials and was thoroughly happy with my meal and experience there. You get SO much food and the prices are great. I definitely found my spot for when I'm passing through Eunice!!

the famous and most photographed salad in eunice, so far

This is an excellent place to eat. The food was delicious. The servers were kind and attentive. The building had that "old and quaint" vibe.

Nick's on 2nd - Breakfast

Nick's on 2nd

(15 reviews)

Nick's on 2nd is a favorite of mine in Downtown Eunice. It originally was a historic bar, but has…read morechanged over the years and is now a homey eatery that has expanded into the next-door buildings. I guess it is worth mentioning that the establishment has operated under different names. It was originally Nick's, but at one point it was run as Ruby's Restaurant and Courtyard. Ruby's is still in business, but is now operating back at their original location around the corner on Walnut. You may find that the reviews and pictures for these two locations are somewhat mixed up on Yelp for this reason. Now Nick's is back to its original name, and is still going strong. The space Nick's occupies is indeed historic, and is located on the redeveloped 2nd Street with many other nice local businesses. The main section includes the old wooden bar from Nick's, as well as a beautiful high-ceiling dining area. However, the establishment has expanded into the other buildings next door, which includes their large and very nice restrooms. While you visit these, check out the collection of historical photographs of Eunice that are displayed in this hallway. The food at Nick's is indeed a fine example of Eunice home style cooking. Prairie Cajun cuisine often features rice & gravy based dishes that fill the stomach and sooth the soul. These involve a variety of stewed, roasted, or fried meats, and a couple of home-style vegetables. Plate lunches also usually include a small salad and dessert. It is a filling repast! If one wishes, there is a menu offering salads, sandwiches and Po-Boys, and other succulent selections. Seafood selections are of course available... A excellent thing about choosing to dine at Nick's is one can stroll over to the National Park Service's Jean Lafitte Prairie Cajun Cultural Center afterwards, or an ice cream and yogurt shop, or a excellent coffee shop, or go shopping in one of the local boutiques. It is a great place to be in Downtown Eunice.
