Pizza village is my third choice behind Alesi's and Deano's. it's not bad but it's not my favorite

Too many better places in Laf IMO, it would shine somewhere like Crowley.

What do you not like about pizza village?

Alesi's is good too, but is it just me or do you wake up in the middle of the night thirsty every time you eat their pizza?

I noticed that also but haven't had one in a couple of years. Pizza village or Delano's mostly.

Mostly their pizza.

I've only had it on the south side at the new location, been their 3 separate times and it blows. That pizza has NO love in it.

Agreed!!

my favorite places to eat with a budget in Lafayette are:

Office Hours on Pinhook, they have awesome hamburgers and I have yet to try a plate lunch but heard they were awesome.

Fat Pats on Verot, great food all around, and scenery is usually good

BJs Pizza on Congress, best pizza you can buy as far as I'm concerned and price is excellent

Chris's Poboy, great poboys

then you have downtown with many choices down there, Dwyers has awesome comfort food served in giant portions, for like $7 I think. Corner Station, is also good. That's about all I've explored since I've worked down here. T-Coons is pretty good, but usually packed

specktator 05-28-2013 09:59 AM

I hate Alesi's pizza. Also not a big fan of the Marie Leveaux from Deano's. But the Cajun Executioner and T Rex are good. Now that I live in "Upper Lafayette" though, Pizza Village is the only pizza I eat really.

If you like burgers Fat Pat's, Twin's, Pete's, and Judice Inn are pretty hard to beat.

Walk-On's really has some pretty good food too.

If I'm taking the wife on a date Tsunami, Phare's, Feezo's in Scott, Zea, Mazen Grill, and a few others.

If my daughter is choosing we are going to Izzo's or Texas Roadhouse.

If you go to Olde Tyme, rememeber they are the only frickin place in Lafayette that don't take credit cards!!! I used to forget everytime when I was in college.

Ragin_Cajun 05-28-2013 10:01 AM

Mazen Grill may be the best place to eat in town. Yo get what you pay for and i don't mind paying there!

Tsunami if off the chain!!! 98% of the time when my wife and I eat out, that's where we go.

I haven't tried there yet, but that's the first time I hear that. I'm going to have to make a pass soon

mriguy 05-28-2013 10:08 AM

I heard that new place next to Pete's, Socials was really good with a fantastic beer selection

It's "ok". I have been once and wasn't very impressed. Weird menu items. Reminds me of LaFonda. Mediocre food but the same "cool people" are always there. Always packed. If you are from Lafayette, you know who I'm talking about.

For sure. Seaweed salad, Don Tuna Toll, Green Monster Roll, John Breaux roll then finish it up with their 3 ice cream sampler (green tea ice cream is awesome) and you will have a hard time agreeing when you go eat sushi with your Friends at a place other than Tsunami that they claim to be "awesome"....

Lol no u right. That was a little dramatic. LaFonda sucks. But I really didn't enjoy my meal at Social. Maybe I should have tried something else.

Montauk17 05-28-2013 10:56 AM

If yall like real authentic mexican food check out el ran****o on cameron st good stuff and good price.

specktator 05-28-2013 11:01 AM

Sumo ribeye from Tsunami best steak in town IMO as well.

Tsunami only sushi I will eat in Lafayette besides Oishi on Kaliste Saloom but they really just take out.

Oishi is the little dive across from fresh Pickens? If so, that place is pretty dang good too

Dink 05-28-2013 11:14 AM

Social sucks. Been 5 times, didn't like it but one time (didn't eat, just drank). Its like they try to hard to be different or something. The smoked pork plate had somr weird paste with a ball of pork fat on top. Thats it! I just paid 30 bucks for some fat........Oh, and their Old Fashions are absolutly horrible!! I live a few 100yrds from it, was really hoping for something good........nope!

They do a descent steak, and the kids pizza is the best thing on the menu
