This was my first time and I was thoroughly impressed. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I will definitely be back and have told quite a few people about the restaurant. read more

The waitstaff is excellent and energetic. The food far exceeded my expectations. I've eaten seafood fettuccine dozens of times, but Dupuy's must have a secret recipe. Condiments eat but 1/2 of it. Portion size was more than expected. The ambiance was exceptional. I like a quiet environment when dining. A couple told us while we waited that we'd definitely return, and return we will. Excellent overall experience. read more

Wow! Wife and I came to dinner at Dupuy's after the kid played a baseball game in Abbieville and we are kicking ourselves for having never gone before. I got the crab dinner which was phenomenal and my wife got the Basa Roulade which was baked fish stuffed with crab and topped with crabmeat in a butter sauce. She loved it and the portion was large enough for her to have lunch the next day. We were amazed at how much crabmeat they give you for the price. These dishes were under $30 which is wild. The crab dinner might have been a little over $30 but still. Can't wait to go back. The drinks were good too. I had an old fashioned and she had a french 75. read more

My wife likes to gamble... I don't. So while she's in the casinos day and night in Lake Charles, I drive around the unknown parts of the great state of Louisiana to find unique and out of the way places. On our last trip I ventured out to the picturesque little town of Abbeville to the renowned Dupuy's. I had gotten there pretty early and so the place was basically just me and the staff which helped me pick out my food. Naturally I got some raw oysters since they were in season and some Crawfish etouffee which was just perfect. This place has been around forever and sits in the middle of downtown in an old well renovated building. Well worth the drive. read more

I love Dupuy's and always have. The best fried local seafoods on the planet. One BIG caveat: Stick to traditional offerings like fried oysters, shrimp, catfish, crab claws, etc. or the gumbos, which are excellent. I have also had a decent steak here, but IDK if that is a current menu item. Remember that this place is World famous for fresh & fried OYSTERS ! Avoid yuppie stuff or non-local items. Call first to make sure they are open. Dupuy's is consistently the best of several neighborhood choices, no matter what your radio told you. Rick read more

Jozie is super amazing! She was very helpful and lots of fun. She talked me in to bread pudding as I had never had it. Tasted a lot like a childhood Scandinavian desert. We had a great time. Would definitely come here again. read more

Grilled Oysters Rockefeller, are 10 out of 10. Get the Dozen, you'll just order more, if you get half. My wife got the Bayou Tuna, well done. And I got the Stuffed Shrimp, over angel hair pasta, with Roasted Red Pepper cream sauce. Tuna was perfectly cooked, and the pastas were delicious. Both the white wine cream sauce, and the Roasted Red Pepper sauce. read more

I finished a month long work trip and was on my way home. By mistake I reserved a room that was 30 miles off I10 but becuase it was a last minute reservation I couldn't change it. During check in I asked the front desk where should I eat? She said she recommends Dupuys to everyone. Thank the Lord because it was one of the best meals I've had in years. The gumbo was true "burnt flour". It was the best I've had that wasn't made by my Beau Bridge sister that made in her home for my family. The Basa Roulade, crab stuffed fish, fried okra, even the caeser salad were delicious. All of it. Not only was the food outstanding but also the entire staff did an excellent job on a very busy Friday night. That's hard to come by most of the time. Going off the beaten path was worth it. If I venture this way again I will definitely have dinner here again. read more

Great restaurant and service. Park across the street if the parking lot is full. We all got the fillet, medium rare, not the juiciest steak, but it was fine. The baked sweet potato was very good, as well as the stuffed potato and sautéed vegetables. Get the sampler charbroiled oysters. Very flavorful. They had a grouper special someone else got, so good!!! So next time I come here I will get the fish instead of steak. Lively Cajun spot. read more

Top notch food. Fried shrimp best in area. Ribeyes were good. Could have been thicker Main area opens at 5. We were too early for that. Had tables in bar. But for me the bar was too loud. Service was spot on read more

Awesome Rib Eye steak special on Tuesdays. Seafood dishes are excellent. Love the bar area and outstanding service read more

OMGosh! Absolutely the best crab cake I have ever eaten in my entire long life! It was the biggest, filled with the most crab ever! Double yum! And then the eggplant seafood on angel hair pasta dish! Fresh, tasty goodness! And I found this restaurant by accident after driving to Abbeville trying to find the cattle festival. What a treat! And the service? Off the chart. The young man who was my server was ON IT! I WILL visit this amazing place again. read more

Don't Miss Out! We were staying at Cypremort State Park and decided to take a seafood road trip to Abbeville, a 43 mile drive. Have mercy! Everything about Dupuys made it 100% worth the drive. It was a few minutes after 2pm so seating was only available in the bar area. What a blessing that turned out to be. We ordered Oysters Deville for an appetizer. Be sure to squeeze the lemon on them. They were cooked perfectly and SO tasty. We love oysters any way you can cook them so when I am here to tell you, these were amazing, trust me. Because that was a lot, we both ordered appetizers. I went with the Eggplant Abbeville and my husband ordered the Combo Appetizer. All I can say is God Bless South Louisiana and the Gulf Of America. The food was more than a 10 rating . The Combo plattter shrimp, oysters and fish were fried and so fresh and no greasy dive flavor at all. I've been all over the nation and I'm here to tell you, you cannot fake gulf shrimp and you can't find any better anywhere. My Eggplant Abbeville was also amazing. That sauce, so flavorful, but not so rich you couldn't eat much. Now there was only one little set back to our entire experience....our waitress, Bayle. She was on top of her game 100%, so much so that we were impressed that she was so young and such a hard worker, a rarity these days. Consequently we questioned her and found out she's a nursing student and it was her last day of employment. Sad to hear that because we had already decided we would return. At the end of the day....don't miss out on this small town gem. Food, service, ambience, the whole package. Go for it. You won't be disappointed. read more

Our server was awesome. We traveled from carencro. Food was amazing! Will definitely be back!!!

Dupuys was the first stop of this year's culinary expedition to New Orleans from Houston and to race in the 2024 Shamrockin Run New Orleans. The first stop was the highlight of this year's trip: Large and delicious gulf raw oysters, perfectly prepared friend seafood, friendly, and precise service from the waitstaff. The evening could not have been better. A cautionary note: The servings are very large; my mate's oyster po-boy, served cut in half, was huge and is easily shareable. If you are any where near Abbeville, Dupuys is a can't miss. read more

The crab cake with crawfish on top is delicious; it's the best crab cake I've ever eaten!

Always great. We had lunch there a few weeks ago and everything was amazing. Bonus is a walk around downtown Abbeville.

Dupuy's Seafood & Steak has been in business since 1869! You don't have a 150 year old restaurant unless you have mastered the business of serving Cajun Seafood to generations of happy customers. Seafood is certainly the star attraction at this Abbeville eatery located on the banks of the Vermillion River. They are known for their fresh oysters, whose shells pave much of their parking lot. These are available in many forms, but for the best experience I think you have to go with them raw on the half-shell. Shrimp is also a gulf favorite, and can be had several ways. Crawfish is also nice, especially when available boiled in season. Then there are the many types of fin fishes... However, steaks and other Cajun fare are also on the menu. Gumbo is not to be missed, and they have some spectacular salads for a lighter meal. Po-Boys are great here, if you are looking for a sandwich-centered meal. I usually am in Abbeville at lunchtime, so I save some and get a wider variety by just ordering whatever is the lunch special of the day. This varies from day to day and week to week, but is always excellent. Last time I stopped in it was Seafood Quesadillas with a Side Salad, which included lots of shrimp and crawfish! Amazing, and only about ten dollars. Service is always great, and the interior is comfortable and inviting. I really can't speak to the dessert, as I have never had room for any. read more

Good food. Good service. My husband loves their open flame cooked oysters. We go early because it can be very busy. The wait was not too long. Long enough for a drink! read more

Amazing food and atmosphere! Most mind-bogglingly tasty gumbo, catfish, and crab in the state. No contest. Can't wait to return!

Food is always great and wait staff is always there when u need them!!! Beautiful Cajun dining room!!

I love coming here when I'm in town. This place has great food. Everything I have had from here has never disappointed. The fried alligator bites are always cooked to perfection. I usually get a po boy and they are always stuffed full and the bread is soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. The staff here is also very good. They constantly check in you to see if they can get you anything and everyone greets you and checks to see how your meal is. The prices are very reasonable and you get a good amount of food. I never thought I would post about a bathroom but I feel like this had to be mentioned. I was so impressed with how clean it was you can tell that they truly care about the customer here. Definitely one of the top places! read more

Came upon this through yelp while visiting family here. Getting in was a little tricky since I saw 3 different doors to get into but we managed to get in haha Their oyster platter was so good for a pretty good price. $21 for about 21-22 pieces of oyster we served with French fries. Nothing special about the fries though It was my first time having boudin and I must say, they were tasteful! The seas food gumbo is nothing like in Texas but it was pretty pricey for a tiny cup for only $6 Be sure to check in on yelp to try their banana pudding! read more

First rate food and service and Ambiance wait staff is very polite and you get served in a timely manner.

Really good seafood! I love everything I have had there, but my favorite is the crawfish nachos

This is mostly a seafood restaurant, well, most everything in this area is seafood though there are a few landlubber choices available, of which I partook. The cheeseburger I had was quite good and surprised me a lot. Fries on the other hand were salted very heavily and not my thing. The restaurant seems to be mostly geared towards seafood and was very nicely appointed on the inside. Will repeat as everyone was quite happy and cheerful. read more

Some of the best food I've ever had. Love this place. Wish it were closer to home but I always stop in if I'm within a reasonable distance

Always great food! Awesome service! Had company in from Texas wanting good oysters! What better place to go! Thank you!

Dupuy's is wonderful!!! A short drive from Lafayette and suddenly you are in small town Louisiana. I'm a visitor so keep that in mind but...driving from the relative sprawl of Lafayette, arriving in Abbeville is like small town Louisiana from an old movie. Dupuy's is small and old and homey. We were seated and told our waiter we were visiting from California and would like some suggestions. Immediately he pulled a chair from a nearby table, spun it around and sat down to talk to us about what we might want. The manager noticed and he came over, sat down, and started to talk to us also. We got plenty of advice, not only about Dupuy's menu but also about the region. So friendly! We ended up with one of the best crabcakes I've ever had, crispy on the outside, tender and full of crab inside, a nice sauce. Followed that with a salad and then a bowl of great gumbo. Washed down with a very cold Abita beer. Can't get more Cajun than that! This is worth the drive. Don't miss Dupuy's, seriously. A hundred years old and going strong. read more

Everything is always great! Great food and great service. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

Hands down the BEST food around, don't forget to get some crab cakes. Best food in Louisiana and the nicest staff and owners.
