Prejeans defines Cajun food and is a must stop on your trip. Even if you don't have time to eat at least drop by and check out the amazing decor. I enjoyed the Prejean’s Seafood Platter, $19 (Fried or Grilled) that included fried frog leg, shrimp, oysters, catfish, alligator, stuffed shrimp & stuffed crab. It was served with dirty rice,... more

Personally, I believe this is the benchmark by which any other Cajun restaurant should be judged by. This place absolutely exudes flavor and authenticity that sets the standard by which any other serious cajun restaurant should aspire to. I've never had a bad experience here, and I only wish I had the opportunity to stop by again before too long.... more

Recently went to Prejeans. Some menu changes that eliminate some of their specialty dishes such as the "boudin balls" and many more. Very disppointed in this change. Doubt we will return as often.. more

While exploring the Cajun part of Louisianan, we bumped into two Belgian couples at a bed-and-breakfast. They planned a diverse 3 week itinerary covering the lower states. Clearly dedicated foodies, they were looking forward eating at Prejean’s. We had to try it too. The restaurant is located off the beaten path yet still just a few minutes away from the... more

We were here for the first time in March (2008). There was no live music since it was Good Friday, but the food was fantastic and we would definitely go back. The boudin balls were great, and the oysters were some of the best I've had ever. We'll definitely go back next time we're in Lafayette. more

My wife and I had breakfast here two mornings on our recent visit to Lafayette. Both times, the service and food were excellent. I had Eggs Benedict Arnold A French classic with an imaginary twist, creamy hollandaise laced with smoked tasso both mornings, very good. My wife had French Toast the first morning and Atchafalaya Rising an omelet stuffed with... more

I have to agree with "3 strikes and you're out." We (two of us) went to eat at Prejean's. It took us 45 minutes to get a table for 2. We ordered 2 gumbos and 2 entrees. The gumbo was ok, and I say ok because I am from Louisiana and have had MUCH better....but it wasn't disgusting. I had... more

If you're from out of town and want to try some authentic Cajun, you really can't go wrong with Prejean's. I'm from the area, and my friends and I can't get enough of it. The salad dressings are divine... try the eggplant pirogue, too. :) more
