We ordered fried oysters with fries, grilled catfish with salad with ranch dressing, and onion rings. It took 30 minutes to get any food. We got there around 12:20 so we were way after the lunch rush. I didn't get any salad dressing but Maddie came back and asked what kind I wanted. Within 10 minutes she brought us our check, let us know she was leaving and gave us the name of who would take care of us. No offer to get us anything else. Glad we weren't wanting any ice cream or a shake, because apparently we were not going to get offered that either. Maybe it was an off day. The food was good though, I think, because I was so hungry when it came that I pretty much inhaled it. You know how when you go to a fast food restaurant they have trash receptacles on the dining room floor? They have that here too. And unfortunately, we sat down next to one. If I'm able to post a photo, you can take a peek.

Have gone for breakfast twice and enjoyed the experience both times. Lots of different choices on the menu so there's something for everyone, and it is GOOD stuff!! You can tell they have lots of regulars, it's not too loud and a perfect spot to bring family. Service is always kind, both servers we've had were dolls and the women behind the counter are all smiles. Definitely will be back before we leave Eunice.

Oh, Chicken King! When one finds one's self sailing across 190 (not too quickly, I hope, because of…read morethe many speed traps!), Chicken King is a nice little local spot to grab a basket of fried shrimp, a burger, or (perish the thought!) some chicken. This is a locals' haunt that's cheap and cheerful, and the food has always been great. This isn't haute couture fare, but it doesn't aspire to that either. The shrimp basket with a side of mac'n'cheese probably isn't on anyone's diet-approved list, but it sure is tasty.

All the sandwiches were named after Old Hollywood celebrities. Don't be put off by the antique store vibe, the food is delicious and the owner and help are so sweet. There are only five tables that I could see, each seating 3-4 people. We chose Back in Time because I wanted to try a muffuletta while I was in Louisiana. They did not disappoint! Their homemade olive spread was a delight. I wish they sold it by the jar and it would have come back to Oklahoma with me. While there we saw lots of repeat customers come in, which is always a great recommendation. Thank you, Back in Time, for such a great meal experience.

We stopped in for lunch while passing through Eunice, Louisiana, I love this small town where it…read moreseems time has almost stopped in a lot of ways, it definitely has that small town vibe that still embraces the cajun culture. We didn't have any particular place in mind for lunch knowing that there are a few great options but wanted to try a place where the locals eat so here we are at Ruby's. This town has a lot of history and Ruby's Cafe has been a big part of that history. Parking is pretty easy in this part of the historic downtown district so it was only a matter of crossing the street to get to the entrance, this small cafe was pretty busy but we were able to seat ourselves without a wait although arriving here a little after noon some of the daily plate lunch specials were already sold out- but we managed after our friendly server let us know what was still available. We ordered the pork tasso and sausage with rice and gravy with candied yams and sweet slaw and chicken fried steak with a spicy brown gravy on the side with corn and again an order of candied yams. The food here was amazing, a little like eating at momma's place, this is legit cajun fare and if you haven't had a chance to sample this unique cuisine this would be a great place to start in my opinion. The sweet tea is freshly brewed and the service is outstanding and definitely a place I'll return to when in the area or within a reasonable driving distance - this place is definitely one to bookmark...
