Restaurants in New Iberia

“Magnificent place, without a doubt one of the best places in all of Louisiana, the atmosphere takes you back to the past, and with its delicious food it can't even be said delicious”

“Great food as always, staff are friendly”

“They were very Good ! nice size!”

“I have something to say about our stay at Lamar Dixon during the flood. I have heard people talking crap about the way they were treated, not being fed, and other hateful, vicious LIES. I, personally, had only one complaint and that was the army cots. The only reason my complaint is about that is due to my back injuries from numerous rear-end collisions, so a cot with a metal rod jabbing you in the back was not comfortable. Other than that, under the circumstances, our stay for a week-and-a-half was incredible. I met some amazing people, made new family, and new friends. The volunteers, the Red Cross, our military, our sheriff deputies, everyday civilians, people from out of state, local restaurants (too many to remember them all), Ninja Snowballs (came 2 days in a row and GAVE away free snowballs for 5+ hours each day), doctors, nurses, and pharmacists 24/7 for medical needs and emergencies. Vern's BBQ and Catering was there the entire time feeding us lunch and supper, on top of all the other companies who came and cooked for us. We had anywhere from 6 to 8 meals a day available to us plus snacks in between. So, if you are one of the people complaining about not being fed, you should be ashamed of yourselves for lying. If you didn't eat, it's not because there wasn't any food, it's because you were either 1) Too lazy to go stand in line to get it or 2) Too picky about what was being served. If you went hungry even one day there, it's your own fault. There was enough food there for us plus another shelter. People with pets had a place for their 4-legged family members and they were well taken care of. Tia Torres from "Pit Bulls and Parolees" came by with a hotel connection offering pet owners and their pets a place to go. Mr. Chad Blouin from LSU Sports came practically every day to check on everyone. He brought rechargeable chargers, Bibles, and even took peoples' clothes to wash and dry. All of these people gave their time, their own money, and some even more. From the first day we were there, the bathrooms were practically spotless, even though A to Z Janitorial was down about 3/4 of their staff due to them being flooded themselves. So, if you were hungry, bored, miserable, or anything else negative, it's probably no one's fault but your own. I have a whole new group of family and friends. You and you alone missed out on the opportunity of a lifetime, where you could've taken a bad situation and turned it into a positive, inspirational, learning experience, but instead some chose to complain about anything and everything. As my dad (R.I.P.) used to say, "You'd complain if they hung you with a new rope". A big thank you to Lamar Dixon, Mr. Don Hysell, Mr. Martin McConnell, Mr. Kyle Rogers, Ms. Vickie, Mr. Bernie Capone, Navy Veteran and Red Cross volunteer Norman Soren, all Red Cross volunteers, all civilian volunteers, all our Military men and women, deputies and officers, first responders, Mr. Kevin Johnson and crew from A to Z Janitorial, Mr. Vern, Ms. Debbie, and crew from Vern's BBQ and catering, Ninja Snowballs, all other restaurants, catering companies, and individuals who provided food and donations, and the Cajun Navy without whom many of us would not be here. There are many more whose names I never knew and if I forgot anyone or left anyone out, please forgive me. Much love and thanks to you all for a job well done under such trying and demanding circumstances. God bless you all.”

“My son and I were in town to attend a wedding. We stopped in for dinner Friday night and grabbed a large po' boy and a salad to share. The food and friendly service were so great we had to stop in Saturday for lunch before the wedding! We live in San Antonio, Tx, but will definitely be back when we pass through New Iberia to visit family! That bread pudding looked good and the serving is large! We might have to give it a try next time! 😊”

“Great hotdog. Glad viators is back.”

“I get a Daiquiri every Wednesday there after work… I will say that they have the BEST Daiquiris in town .”

“This is one of my favorite restaurants. When you first enter, the food smells great. It tastes even better. The portions are very generous, so much so that I actually get two meals from one. The owner is so nice and friendly and is a pleasure to speak to. He noticed my wife wasn't with me the last two times I visited and inquired about how she was doing. Very thoughtful. I highly recommend GyroHouse Mediterranean.”

“Delicious authentic food, extraordinary quesabirria tacos
Only issue was I didn’t get any consume which I’m not used to, but the salsa verde that came with it was delicious.”

“Excellent excellent food. New SUNDAY BBQ!!!”

“Best gumbo in Da Berry. Rice doesn’t stick together. Chicken and sausage are flavorful. Not too salty. Generous portion. Will definitely order gumbo from here twice a month if not more!”

“The food is delicious! We will return. We tried the et toufee and the smothered pork chops. The sides were great and food was plentiful.”

“this place is really good and the stuff is so sweet”

“This is probably one of the few daiquiri stands that you can walk up and order here in town. Most of the others are strictly drive through only. There's a wide variety of the drinks and their ways adding new drinks. About a year back they starting selling 2 girls and cheesecake. I just have to say omg! It's delicious. The staff is friendly.”

“Such a cute place! The coffee was superb and the food was delicious.”

“Neat little bar to hang out at. There's always live music on Monday nights with talented artist. The crowd is awesome and laid back. The people that go are laid back and friendly. The staff is quick to wait on you and they know what your drinking. Plus you get to see Jax the dog from time to time.”

“This pizza was amazing. First time having it, and definitely going back.”

“I played music there years ago and may start again A great hangout!”

“Road stop dining that can't be missed on the way to New Iberia. The gentleman who served up the food and was servicing the window was quick and cooks up a mean barbecue. Huge portion. The turkey necks were peeling off the bone and glistening in a fantastic, sweet and just barely spicy, brown sauce that was also drizzled over a bed of rice; the dinner roll on the side was perfectly soft, easy to peel and share; the sausage pea soup was so good, there were tears coming down my travel pals face (?️), this being the same person who initially figured that she wasn't hungry until I opened up the dinner plate. More please!”

“I went and asked for a Creme Brulee iced latte and a Creme Brulee Mochassippi, well they got the mochassippi right but the iced latte was so bland with absolutely no flavor. How that happens? I don't know. It wasn't even during a rush and I couldn't even drink it.”

“I have been going to Snowball Factory almost every day religiously for a week. (My Gym hates it but) Their snowballs are TOP TEIR. I have tried every snowball place in New Iberia but Snowball Factory takes #1 by FAR. 20/10 would absolutely recommend. Staff is amazing, always smiling and just handling business. All these other negative comments are probably people who were rude to the staff first. I highly recommend!!!”

“The fish is good! Crawfish pies are good too! Best Place. in Town wish they would open back up!”

“My 7 year old wanted to give a 5 star review because of the stretchy cheese”

“The best Mexican food in town and awesome service 👍”

“Ordered a pepperoni pizza an it was so so good , enough for the family , fresh an hot , can’t wait to try other dishes from here , highly recommend”

“Beautiful day to sit by the bayou and enjoy some good Cajun food. I tried the seafood platter to try a little everything... Shrimp, frog leg, fried oyster and catfish. Shrimp was excellent and the rest was good. My wife enjoyed her Caesar salad with grilled shrimp. We went for an early dinner (4:30pm) and Nora was working alone till night crew arrived. Despite being very busy she did a marvelous job juggling between bartending, taking and delivering orders and bussing tables.”

“Im in town here in New Iberia working and I wanted to support an small Black Owned Business and I've found the Jewel of New Iberia. This place is the place to be if you enjoy good music and down home people! The owner a welcomed me with open arms as if I've been coming here for years. Great environment, very cozy. I will return every time I'm in town. I'd even drive the 2 hours just to come hang out and enjoy myself here”

“This place has some amazing food! The prices are really good and the quality is a lot better than most Mexican restaurants. For the most part, the service is excellent. We have had one or two times that the service was lacking, but the food outweighs those few times.”

“If you are looking for a sweet, delightful treat, I would like to nominate Kim’s “Honey Apples”! I have been to Kim’s 3 days in a row this week, including yesterday! I’m not sure how Kim’s does it, but I pray that they don’t ever stop doing it! Kim’s “Honey Apples” are one of the best things that has ever happened to my mind, body, soul and mouth, all at the time! I have been eating Kim’s “Honey Apples” since I was a little girl and since they were in their 1st location that was just a little further down from where they are located now! I’m 37 years old now! Even after living in Houston, Texas from 2008-2022, there is nothing that compares to Kim’s “Honey Apples”! The “Honey Apples” are served hot, sweet and crunchy on the outside and has a fresh, I do believe green apple slice on the inside! I’m not sure how Kim’s does it but they could be Fried “Honey Apples”! One order of Hot “Honey Apples” comes with 8 apples slices for under $5.00! I still can not believe that a restaurant can make apples taste so heavenly, for such an outstanding value! Thank you Kim’s Chinese Restaurant! I give your “Honey Apples” 15 out of 10 stars! Oh, don’t take my word for it, go try Kim’s Fried, Hot, “Honey Apples” or Hot, Fried, “Honey Apples” out for yourself! You’re welcome!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“Great team, with perfect creativity! I placed my order online and simply put “HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACOB REID! (The theme is LSU Football, “First Year Down”. Please use your creativity to design, can include #1). Everyone was so excited with the product we received! So many compliments, thank you so much for a perfect 1st birthday cake!”

“so thankful she could help us on a last minute wedding cake order . I sent her a picture and she did her thing , it came out beautiful & delicious.”

“I had a wonderful date with my old man. We shared a banana split. Mmmmm good. The workers were very nice. We had such a blast We went the next day too. Everything was perfect and OMG they have so many flavors and also had little ice cream cone people they made. They were so cute.”

“This place is great. Previous reviews said so, and I 100% agree. I was also “that guy” who came in within an hour of closing time. It made no difference to the wait staff and hostess. I was greeted with welcoming faces, and attentiveness. I also accidentally ordered something with shrimp. I was tired and just skimmed through the burrito description. I felt terrible when I told the waiter what happened. I’m allergic to shellfish. “Oh no, don’t worry sir I’ll take this back and get you fixed up!” That was the response I got. I was expecting some retaliation, and I definitely deserved it. Instead, I was still given great service. And the food was absolutely delicious. They are a little pricey, but you will get what you pay for. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT.”

“do not recommend the best thing I ate was frys. staff is friendly food just isn't it.”

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”

“They are The Bomb Mz Kitty love The GHOSTBUSTER.”

“I had the pleasure of being helped by Carrington, and Amairani, during my recent visit, and I can confidently say they delivered some of the best customer service I’ve experienced anywhere.

From the moment I walked in, Carrington greeted me with a warm, genuine smile that instantly made me feel welcome. He was attentive, professional, and made sure everything I needed was taken care of promptly.

Amairani was equally impressive—friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient when answering my questions. She went out of her way to ensure my order was perfect and even made thoughtful suggestions that I ended up loving.

It’s rare to see such a cohesive, friendly, and efficient team working so well together. These three not only made my visit enjoyable—they made me want to come back. Thank you, Carrington,and Amairani, and Dai’Shanae, for going above and beyond. You truly represent the gold standard of customer service!”

“Yummy Snowballs and courteous staff! Highly recommend a stop for a sweet treat or something to eat!”

“Always busy, Great food, Friendly staff! hamburgers, fried okra, stuffed jalapeños, I have so many favorites I can't list them all. love this place.”

“This is one of my favorite restaurants to eat out at. The staff is very nice. Their constantly checking in on you to see if you need anything. The buffet has a wide variety of options to choose from. They do get crawfiah when its in season. One of the downsides is the buffet had been the same food options for the pass several years. It could use a change up.”

“Everything was exceptional! ….but as others have stated the garlic knots seemed hard instead of crispy….(the way I would like them), but I’m Cajun not Italian……so maybe that’s how they are supposed to be….that would be our only “complaint “. Zoe was or server …so sweet and very thorough and attentive. Would recommend everyone to give it a try….New Iberia needs more quality restaurants like this…to support our own community instead of having to go out of town for a good experience and good food.”

“Did mobile order and it was ready on time and all good experience picking it up!
The pizza ? was great ??
$30 bucks for 3 pizzas. Good deal imo”

“Came home in 2019 from Nashville. I was treated to a surprise birthday party. Being a retired chef and knowing alot Spanish/Latin dishes. I would give this place 2 👍🏻 👍🏻because the drinks, food and staff were A-1.”

“We came into town from Charleston SC to see some friends and decided to eat here for dinner. Will say this place customer service and food is amazing! This is a must eat at restaurant! Will will eat here again when we come back!”

“Popcorn shrimp dinner was fried in cornmeal and was so full the lid would not close properly. They were seasoned well, hot and delicious! The drive-thru was tight and bumpy, but drivable.”

“Been a while since we have eaten here an the food an service are as great as ever. Good eats! Chuck an Toni taste an tell”

“Very good service, Fast and friendly! Very clean dining area. The chicken tenders melting your mouth! Served Hot! It's a rarity to get quality service. I've tried other food services it's a hit or miss. This is my 3rd time in a month and all 3 where outstanding! Want a very good dining experience with quality food and very friendly service at a reasonable prices? I highly recommend raising Cane's!!”

“great food, awesome workers😀”

“It was my first time eating KOK and I was a little nervous but it was great! The boneless wings were nice and tender and the variety in sauces are great. Cute place on the inside, just needed some tunes.”

“This is a family diner type of place that offers your regular “home cooking” meals, delicious burgers & also local favorites, such as corn shrimp chowder, which is my personal favorite. Shrimp poboy, onion rings, shrimp baskets… everything is really good. Service however is spotty. Our orders were missing fries and onion rings. I saw one of the cooks eating while handling people’s meals. On the positive note, staff were polite and laid back, even though not very efficient. There are not too many sit down places in the area that offer local flavors and despite the issues, we think this is the best sit down restaurant in the area.”

“So much food!! They are not shy to fill up your plate especially if you ordered the shrimp noodles. Very good price reflects the actual quality and quantity of what you ordered. If we ever back in the area we will be back for sure!”

“Ate some lunch here with some co-workers. Service was good and friendly throughout the entire visit. The chips and salsa are always my first impression of a Mexican restaurant and they were not bad at all. Got lunch fajitas which were I would say above average and flavor was good. All in all a solid Mexican restaurant.”
