After my first visit, I knew I would return, and my second experience confirmed exactly why so many locals continue to support Poseidon's. The food was just as delicious as I remembered. I once again ordered the lamb chops with the seafood pasta, and it was every bit as satisfying as the first time. The lamb chops were tender and cooked perfectly, and the seafood pasta was rich, flavorful, and comforting. I also had the opportunity to try some of the grouper special from another guest's plate, and it was equally impressive. The service, however, was very similar to my first visit. You do have to be somewhat proactive in getting your server's attention, and there can be periods where you feel overlooked. As we were leaving, I noticed the restaurant vehicle outside with a phrase along the lines of "Questionable service, great food," and honestly, that sums up the experience quite well. What Poseidon's may occasionally lack in attentive service, it more than makes up for with consistently excellent food. It is clear that many of the guests are regulars who come in several times a week for a great meal, a good drink, and the comfort of a familiar neighborhood restaurant. After two visits, I can understand exactly why. read more

They're hiring a chef. So the food took a hit. French fries!! And they where soogy. The lamb chops where tender, bit overcooked. I really hope that they recover. I like going there for the querykiness of the decor and the food. read more

Poseidon's Greek Restaurant - Gyro plate. - Greek Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

This place is always a good choice for lunch. The place is clean and the service was friendly & fast. The steak salad was fresh but I didn't particularly care for the steak's texture. It had a coating or maybe tenderized too long??? I really don't know & My son liked it so it was just a personal preference. The lentil bean soup was flavorful & the perfect portion. The platter my husband ordered was delicious! Yes, I recommend this place read more

Ordered the lamp and shrimp pasta which includes 5 pieces of lamb chops and a generous serving of pasta. Food as fantastic with outstanding tasting lamb and pasta. Would highly recommend this dish if you like lamb read more

Poseidon's is tucked into a dated shopping center and could easily be overlooked, which would be a shame because the food is next level outstanding. The octopus is excellent when available - call ahead and they can make it happen. Poseidon's hummus is one of the best around. The calamari is crisp and tender. The moussaka is perfect comfort food. Don't sleep on the specials, either. The grouper with shrimp available on our last visit were super fresh and cooked perfectly. Portions are huge - plenty for leftovers- and prices are quite reasonable. Poseidon's decorates seasonally for holidays, which is fun. The service is friendly and helpful. One thing that's great is that multiple servers will help your table. Any server passing by will notice your drink is low, and they'll fill it. Love this place! read more

This was the first time I have been to Poseidon but will definitely not be my last. This place is truly a hidden gem. The food was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was festively decorated for Christmas. I ordered the special, which was the chicken pasta. It was creamy with delicious bursts of a sun dried tomatoes. My son had a gyro warp which was also wonderful with delicious homemade fries. BUT the best thing of all was the spectacular calamari that we ordered as an appetizer. To finish off the amazing meal we shared a baklava that was so good it was a cherry on top of a perfect meal. Our waitress was nice and very patient with us, since it was our first time here. Overall I would highly recommend Poseidon to anyone. We can not wait to go back and try other yummy dishes. read more

The atmosphere was good and staff polite, and the food tasted good, but my food looked as though it had set under a heat lamp for a long time. Edges were hard and meat was dry. Had it been moist and freshly served, it would have been an excellent meal. read more

Poseidon's Greek Restaurant - The Grouper Special was fantastic! I wish I had taken a picture of it - Greek Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

Best restaurant in town. Food is excellent and it's always decorated and festive. The owner and staff are super friendly.

Had the veal chops with chicken pasta and it was outstanding. The salad was also good. Enjoyed a couple of the Greek beers which were very tasty. With the 30th anniversary celebration going on all of the decorations make the place look pretty festive. The service was also excellent with my waitress offering several suggestions which turned out all spot on. Excellent experience and I will be excited to try them again when back in town. read more

When in Lafayette and trying to forgo the obvious Cajun foods, stop in to Poseidon's for an excellent take on Greek deliciousness. Grab yourself a meat pie for an appetizer, I chose the Gyro and Chicken Shawarma combo with the side Greek Salad. The service was a treat as everything was hot and fast. And don't let the fact that it's in a strip mall scare you, it is well worth the visit. read more

Good Food, very reasonable, cool atmosphere! I travel a lot so it's a pleasure to go to a family owned restaurant while on the road.

Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name. This place reminds me of Cheers. It's an old tv show kids. Look it up kids. The food is out of this world. I highly recommend the lamb chops and pasta. It's mouth watering just typing this. I refuse to get anything else because that's how obsessed I am with this dish. The lamb is cooked a perfect medium rare. It's so juicy and succulent. I will naw on the bone afterwards. Don't judge. The pasta is al dente and so creamy. The only reason I try other dishes is because my wife orders them lol. If you decide to go against my advice, which you shouldn't, but if you do - you can't go wrong with the moussaka, spanakopita, and I can't forget about the gyro. They also have a great liquor selection. Cheers beaches read more

Good Greek food! I'm originally from metro Detroit where we have 2-3 Greek restaurants in every city and town so I know my Greek food!

Food was very hot and fresh. Soup was amazing make sure you save room for baklava with ice cream and honey!!

I don't get here nearly enough because it is way on the other side of town from my office but if I worked in the area I would be here every damn day for lunch. Poseidon's is casual but fancy enough to bring a date and if you're looking to score major points order the moussaka. This place has the best moussaka in town, hands down. I've tried all the Greek restaurants in Lafayette and trust me. The moussaka here is where it's at. I ordered the chicken platter also which was the lunch special and I loved the spicy pita and my salad. The chicken was tender and not dry and served over a bed of rice. You get beaucoup food for a great price. If you're in the area definitely give Poseidon's a go. Did I mention the moussaka? Order that for sure. You'll thank me. And you are welcome. read more

I must say, the food was delicious! I ordered lamb chops because they don't have the leg of lamb that day. (Or do they ever have it?) the Chops were tender and flavorful. Ordered Poseidon plate to try different samples of their menu and everything on that plate/container (take out) was delicious! The service was fast, the place was packed on a lunch hour. The decors were fun and cool. Will definitely go back and maybe dine there instead of take out. The only issue was the hummus came in two small sauce containers with a lb of sliced pita. Tip: order your meat medium rare if you want it medium, which I did and was right on! read more

Crazy about their Mousaka is is just the best , creamy and seasoned beautifully, nice size serving !

Food was great! I dropped a star as the staff needs to be more attentive to patrons. I would come back here if I'm in Lafayette again.

Fabulous food, great atmosphere and friendly, attentive service! You can't beat that!

Excellent food every time. My favorite Gyro Salad in Lafayette The Lamb Chops are amazing as well! We feel like family and the service is great read more

The service was poor. I had a Gyro sandwich and I had to ask for the signature sauce that makes the sandwich also I only had à la cart and I'm sorry 16+ dollars and I felt generous so I left a tip out of guilt. I will never go back there. The sandwich was OK . read more

It was really good. Especially their pita! Some of it was a little spicy, but still very flavorful. read more

Disappointing...we went for dinner. Split the combo plate of chicken shawarma and gyros. The portions were very small. We left hungry. The restaurant was not busy and the staff/server was not attentive at all. Won't go back. read more

Service is always excellent really like the small little restaurant drawn to the small boutique style family owned restaurants

I ordered the shrimp they were cooked nicely however the bed of rice they sat on was cold. The chicken shawarma Wasn't your typical thin slice but chunks of chicken and were dried out. I probably wouldn't eat here again. read more

First off the food is great. I've eaten 4 times in 3 years(passing thru) and I mean a detour to get some chicken shawarma the owner is legit...everyone working there seems nice getting to go twice and having a beer at the bar the other two...I look forward to coming back read more

I ordered the grilled shrimp greek salad to go. I was very impressed with the quality of the shrimp and salad, everything tasted fresh and delicious! At first i thought the baklava would not be much as it looked flat, it was actually very tasty and moist! I will definitely visit this place again upon my next visit and will plan to dine in! read more

The best Greek food in Lafayette and the best Greek restaurant I've ever been to. The Greek salad is wonderful. Their lentil soup is made the way it should be, not puréed, and spiced perfectly. The best, most tender gyro meat I've eaten anywhere. Terrific service in a clean, comfortable, cozy atmosphere. One of the best restaurants in Acadiana! read more

Poseidon's is a place to go and relax and get the best unique Greek food. Nice, quaint atmosphere, great people and delicious dishes. Will definitely be back! read more

I was in Lafayette for two days on business. I went to Poseidon the first evening and returned the next evening because it was so good! On the first night, I had a Greek salad with salmon, cabbage rolls for an appetizer, the lentil soup, and the baklava à la mode for dessert. Everything was outstanding. On the second night, I had the lamb chops, an appetizer sampler, and the baklava à la mode again for dessert. And again the meal was incredible. A few high points were how perfectly cooked the lamb chops were, the wonderful flavor of the lentil soup. The baklava à la mode is a must have. They serve it warm with ice cream, which is so creative and delicious. This is a family own/run restaurant that is overflowing with authentic warmth and courtesy. The service was outstanding, attentive, and friendly. If I am back in Lafayette, I will definitely be returning to Poseidon. Here are a few pics from my meal. read more

Strange place. Really, in 10 minutes I had the Greek salad, the Haloumi cheese AND the main course (gyros platter) in front of me. The waitress said, " they are quick today"! Duhh yes, indeed. I had two choices, send it back or eat it quickly, whilst still warm. I decided for the last one and get out of there ASAP. Total time spent, 20 minutes. Never again. Greeks would be ashamed they call this place a Greek restaurant. Sorry folks read more

FINALLY. A greek/Lebanese place I will truly look forward to! This place is just what I've been looking for. The food is better than any other Greek place in town! I will be back with friends, and I will spread the word. Help me make this place a success! Try Poseidon out TODAY! read more
