The website has a short description of each restaurant, addresses, directions, and menu's.
Totally forgot about that!
Re: First time visitor to Lafayette
I'm going to add Julien's po-boys. Ribeye poboy and the shrimp en brochette (bacon wrapped shrimp) poboy. Don't forget the onion rings.
Re: First time visitor to Lafayette
Damn it Astro, now I want a ribeye poboy
Re: First time visitor to Lafayette
Old Tyme is obviously highly recommended and is in close proximity to campus.
Important question for an out of towner that may get sent here..... Do they still only accept cash as payment (or am I imagining that)?
Re: First time visitor to Lafayette
This leads me to the next question. How many Cajun fans have gout?

For a somewhat eclectic menu go to the French Press across the street from Dons downtown.
For sushi Tsunami downtown
For Mexican - LaPaqua on Johnston or Aztecas on Ambassador Caffery (Avoid LaFondas no matter what anybody says)
For Italian - I Monelli or Alesi's both on Johston street.
For smoked meats Johnstons Boucaniere (you will not be disappointed) If you really want to get down with cajun go to Poches north of Breaux Bridge.
For a somewhat more elegant setting Cafe Vermilionville on Pinhook or Jollies also on Pinhook.
For Tapas - Pamplona Tapas on Jefferson.
I would say Agave' for Mexican, it isn't the best Mexican food but it probably has the best atmosphere. Either location, downtown or on Camellia.

That gator is not 16'.

OR RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM STADIUM!
I personally like Agave fwiw
Re: First time visitor to Lafayette
What's the place right across from the ball park? Is that Agave?
