When a friend of mine suggested we go to Riverside Inn for dinner one Friday night, I couldn't but help but say yes. How many times has anyone in Acadiana been asked - "where do I go for an authentic Cajun/Acadiana experience?"
The answer is Poor Boy's Riverside Inn. Family owned and operated since 1932. Serving fine Cajun cuisine and specializing in Gulf Coast seafood, choice steaks, live Maine lobster, and exotic meats in a casual yet fine-dining atmosphere. It's the one restaurant that anyone who's been Lafayette for any amount of time remembers as their first "authentic" dining experience.
I had my favorite, the stuffed flounder. And, unless you are ready for the to-go box, never mind, you need to make that discovery yourself. The service is very good and the portions are generous.
I need to remind myself to go more often. It's cozy. It's encourages conversation. It's just good food.
