Every time someone asks where we want to eat, Alesi is always at the top of the list. I'll admit, I usually order the pizza because it's just that good, but the few times I've ventured into other items on the menu, I've never been disappointed. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. It's truly sad to hear they're selling the business. Alesi isn't just another pizza place--it's a Lafayette staple and a place that has created so many great memories for families like mine. I sincerely hope the new owners preserve what has made this restaurant so special. If you've never been, do yourself a favor and go while you can. You won't regret it.

I frequented Alesi's in the early 70s when I was going to school at USL. It was always a top notch…read moreexperience because the family really cared about what they served. So, when we finally returned to Lafayette I couldn't wait for my family to experience the most authentic Italian restaurant in the city. The decor had not changed one bit, so I had hope that nothing else did. Alas, it did. We had pasta and pizza, and neither was anywhere near what used to be served here. The spaghetti and sauce looked like it had been sitting under a heat lamp long enough to dry it out, and the pizza was so underwhelming that my son considered having me evaluated for speaking of this place so highly. I've come to learn that the third generation is in charge now, but it's apparent no one cares in the kitchen. To rely on the name alone will not change the fact the sub par food is being served. I will consider that it may have been an off night. It happens. But in Lafayette an off night will cost you a customer who will never return. Competing with Imoelli's, Marcello's, and now Saricca's and Cugino, you're going to need to step it up. Pizza Artista has some of the best pies in town, and it puts to shame what came out of Alesi's kitchen. I wish someone could save this institution. It was a tradition, but now they've lost the tradition.

Never disappointing. I remember visiting Deano's on Bertrand for the first time right after they…read moreopened when I was a student at USL. This was probably 1971 or '72. I was blown away by how delicious the crust and toppings were! We frequented the other local shop in town, but Deano's was our special treat then. When I returned to Lafayette almost 50 years later I was excited to see them still in business. And that first bite brought back so many memories! But then I discovered their muffuletta! I just had to have one. Now, I went to school in New Orleans, and I often visited the old Red Dog Saloon on Gen Mouton, so I can confidently state that I'm a connoisseur of the sandwich. Again, Deano's hit it out of the park! I don't know how they can do so many things so well, but they do, time and time again. And uh oh, they opened one on my side of town less than two miles from my house. This is going to take some self-control. Well, my doctor made me take some self control, so I thought I'd be limited to salads. But wait! Then they come out with this ridiculous Guiltless Pie! Can't be good if it's good for you, right? Oh, sweet summer child, you would be wrong if you thought that. It is, like everything Deano's, delicious! Now I can't wait to go back! I mean, it's only a couple of miles away. I could walk!

We were seated in a booth, which would've been great, but it was right next to a large fish tank. That turned into a steady stream of kids running back and forth to look at the fish. Nothing against kids at all, but that particular booth would be better suited for families rather than couples without children. Just something the restaurant might want to think about. On the positive side, our waitress was excellent, attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. We ordered the Pizza Village Special (no olives), and that's where they really delivered. The pizza was very good, thin, crispy crust with great flavor. Exactly what you want when you come here. Bottom line: good food, good service, just be mindful of where you're seated if you're looking for a quieter meal.

I didn't go all out this time, but I definitely left satisfied! 1. "Bon Temps" Roll Chicken sausage, spinach, mozzarella cheese pepper, jack cheese. Served with salsa ranch. 2. Cajun Samurai Golden fried shrimp, glazed with zesty "Yum-yum" sauce, served on DeanO's own olive oil crust, sprinkled with green onions, crunchy chow mein noodles, and fresh grated parmesan cheese. (My favorite) 3. Cajun Canaille Mischievous cajun! Shrimp, Louisiana smoked sausage, and jalapeños. If you're in Lafayette and looking for a local pizza spot that's not afraid to get creative with Cajun flavors, Deano's is always worth a visit. Tonylameats Approved

The crust leans more crunchy than chewy and is different from pretty much any other pizza I've had. Dean-O's menu is expansive, with a variety of pasta, salad, and sandwich offerings in addition to both traditional and unique specialty pizzas. My favorite choices are the Muffuletta and the Parrain - pepperoni with pepper jelly. Yum! It is very kid friendly, with arcade games to entertain them and a great kids menu. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Sometimes the pizzas can be slow to come out when they are really busy, but that's understandable and the servers usually give a heads up if that's the case.
