Drago's is closing

[RaginDave]

Man, I miss Booties that was in that location many years ago.

Reality is that Drago's food flat out "SUX", if not for the oysters no one would really ever eat there. The oysters are great, the rest of the menu is at best mahhhhh.

Yea if I'm not mistaken, it went from Toucan's to Booties. There was prob another one between those two.

What blows my mind is how all of these Agaves around here stay in business. That ____ is horrible

Post me up at the bar at Don's with some Old Fashioneds, raw oysters, and fried crab paws. Now we're talking about a good day.

The curse of the Johnston/Doucet intersection lives on.

Drago came into a market known for seafood with many options. What exactly did their menu offer that you could not find elsewhere in the area? Unfortunately, Lafayette is a unique market when it comes to the restaurant and hospitality industry. You better bring something unique and different, and your operations better be top notch.

If the horde of thirty-something year old soccer/baseball/softball moms in Lafayette like to go there for a 'Rita beweeen games, there is nothing we can do about it.

It was a service station a very long time ago. (Back when the drive in theater was still operating).Texaco I think. They tore it down and built a shoe town. Then the succession of bars and restaurants. Tucans was owned by Bobby Silor. A bar/restaurant owner that had establishments that would have "fires". The joke around town was "how much gasoline does it take to burn a restaurant down.....toucans".
All I have to say is the only thing in common with all the establishments that were there is the landlord.

We used to go to Serrano's. It was good, but after a while, nobody would go anymore because it was too crowded.

We went to a place there where they would play cajun music on Saturday mornings; this was before there was a tailgating experience at Cajun Field so we used to stop by for a few beers and a little dancing before we headed to the game.

I forget the name of it.

Well oll right Yogi from home, plate.

[Big Buds]

I’ve always said Chick-fil-A would kill there. Now it’s unlikely due to the close proximity of the new one on Johnston St.

Preach. I’ve been twice. That was two too many times.
