Where Should a LA Tech fan eat in Acadiana?

[cajun_civil]

I've heard of this place. It has my vote!!

Bon temp is good but for seafood try fezzos on i10 in Scott or poor-boys riverside inn in Broussard. Fezzos will be the easiest for you to find and is in close proximity to the stadium (less than ten minutes). I suggest the blackened snapper with grilled/blackened vegetables. Of course gumbo, fried fish, and seafood platter are all great choices

La pagua is easily the best and most authentic Mexican food in town. Picante, coyote blues, and place like that are not Mexican.

This!

I will take La Pagua over any Mexican restaraunt in town, and honestly it's one of my favorite restaraunts anywhere. Everyone I tell to go there always is not a fan, but I have gained knowledge of what they order and they might as well just go to Taco Bell. I challenge any of you to go there and order either the tacos al carbon or tacos al pastor and tell me you think it's gross. It's not gonna happen, they are unbeleivable. Y'all can thank me later!

Haven't tried that yet, I need to get over there. I've heard nothing but good about it.

Whatever you order, it will be ready at about the same time you finish your first basket of chips. They don't play around at los mayas

What he said. Especially the French Press. Be prepared to wait though.

Forgot about French Press. Not bad, but the acoustics are atrocious. You can't hear your own thoughts, it'll give you a headache before your food is served.

You want AUTHENTIC Mexican?? No ambiance whatsoever, but hit La Morenita grocery, where they serve traditional Mexican lunches. Also check out the shopping prices, they're straight out of the 1970's. Look at the spices while you're in there, you'll see a gazillion things you've never seen before (including spice bags containing wood chips... now what's THAT about? My wife lived in Spain for years, taught Spanish at UL, she didn't have any idea.)

Oh, and brush up your Spanish, because you'll be the only gringo in the place...

Since we'll probably knock back a few with lunch, and may want to watch a little football while doing so, which place (seafood) has the best set-up for that?

Well you're taste is awful, no offense. I've lived an eaten all over the world, including nasty ads Mexico and La Pagua is not good..

Doesn't surprise me at all

You'd have to sit in the bar and eat to watch TV. Don's Seafood Hut has a TV in the bar side. I like Don's seafood gumbo, seafood salad (with pepper jelly dressing), the shrimp remoulade salad, the boiled shrimp, and the seafood platter (grilled or fried).

If you weren't so set on seafood, I'd check out Deano's as others have suggested. It has TVs all over the place They do have the Marie Laveau pizza that has crab meat on it. If you try this place out, get the Cajun Executioner (my favorite) or maybe it and a half and half with the T Rex (meat lovers). This place rules. You can also get a really good shrimp po boy.
