Prejean's Restaurant Broussard — Restaurant in Broussard

Upon arrival, it was unclear where the entrance was :( 😞. I parked, walked inside, and was promptly greeted and sat . Our server was not far behind and was quick to bring drink order. Ordered raw oysters and ribeye steak (medium). Oysters came out pretty quick and the steak was not to far behind. The oysters were good size and flavor. Was a little disappointed that there was no horseradish sauce with them.. looked for server but was done eating them by the time she came back. We cut into the steak and it was well past medium, cut another slice and it was still past medium, cut a slice from the other side and it was medium. With that said the texture of the steak was more like sirloin than a ribeye. again looked around for server, but by the time she returned we were almost done.. The twice baked potato, on the other hand, was very good. Really hoping the other menu items will keep this place afloat until they figure out how to do a steak right.. also found the music to be a little loud for being lunch on Sunday. Could barely hear the people sitting...

Have been a fan of this place for years. Haven't been in 10 + years however. Was somewhat disappointed with my last visit with my mother who wanted some gumbo. I thought this would be a given. She has recently had surgery and we travel over a hour for her appts. And procedures, surgery, etc. The gumbo roux was so dark in color it was pretty much black in color. And she thought it was too salty. After adding the rice she did take about 4 bites but didn't want anymore after that. Good thing she got the cup and not the bowl. Our catfish was kinda mushy. I thought it was Maybe under cooked. But could of been that the fish was old and borderline should not have been cooked and served. Pricey of course like i remembered. Bill was almost $80 for 2 for lunch. And I had an appetizer for my entry and red beans and rice as my appetizer. It was ok/ fair overall. Disappointed is the word I was searching for. The quality of the food was not worth what...

02/10/23 First time at this location and we enjoyed everything. We had a party of 7 with a reservation so our wait was only 5 minutes. We came in from Houston and my husband and I have had Prejean's before so we wanted our guests to experience it. Nick was our server and an absolute doll. He was patient, knowledgeable, funny, and attentive. David was the manager on duty. He came to our table to check on our table as he was doing with all the tables. David made is way back to our table and talk about great company. David had us laughing and we had him laughing. David and Nick made the Prejean's experience top notch. The food was too die for. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. My husband said that the Smoked Old Fashion was the best that he has ever tasted. I give the Catfish Atchafalaya a 10!! Whenever we make our way back to Lafayette, we will definitely make a stop to Prejean's to see Nick and David and enjoy the food...
