“ Picked up an order of Fried Chicken and French Fries. The person on the phone spoke clearly, then repeated my order and was very polite. The food was freshly cooked even though I ordered late. Chicken and fries were hot, seasoned perfect and not over peppered. The person at the pick up window was pleasant and thanked me. I will order there again. ”
“ This business establishment offers "Down Home Style Cooking" to the general public at its finest. I frequent this eatery about 1-3 times per month. The food dishes are, without a doubt, probably the best in the local area proximity of other same/similar type food eateries, also the prices are consistent with same-like business establishments. Too me, the employees/customer service are always friendly & certainly helpful in helping me decide what to order. Like a kid in a candy store... I'd like to at least 1 item out of them all. A great business for itself & the betterment of The City of Lafayette. Keep doing what you're doing & your business SHALL flourish & prosper in quantities. I will definitely recommend your business establishment to family, friends, or simply the general public when asking me where's a great place to eat with decent prices in a tranquil setting..."Southside Cajun Kitchen...well, of course. If you deny this place than you're denying yourself an awesome eating experience. ”
“ My husband had the fish poboy and rice dressing. Very delicious. My daughter had the chicken and sausage gumbo and you could taste the roux but wasn’t exceptional I can make better gumbo. I had the shrimp and okra gumbo and it tasted like chicken broth made with bouillon didn’t taste no roux at all! I also had the chicken livers and rice dressing and both were so good! Best chicken livers I have ever ate! Will be going there again just won’t be getting the gumbo. Over all very pleased. ”
“ This place has the best chicken tenders. They're large and packed full of flavor. They have also always gotten my order correct. That includes condiments, I've asked for. I know it may seems silly, but so many places leave out things like this. The restaurant is really clean as well. I suggest stopping in and giving them a try. ”
