New to Lafayette. Wife and I want to venture out to Abbeville. She's allergic to shellfish, so she will be looking to get fish. I'm craving raw oysters and seafood. Looking for reviews on these places. Thanks in advance.

Never went back and corrected it, I guess. Not totally inaccurate as they are open for weddings, private parties, etc.

I never denied that part

Come pick me up before you go

There's a good looking Mexican hostess. She's probably 19 but I'm ok with that

Dupuy's small and quiet. Shucks large and loud

Overall I prefer the food at Dupuy's just a little better but it's been a year to two since I been there.

Shucks is a close second.

I like Dupuy's because it is a small mom & pop place. Good food

Haven't been to Shucks in years but it was loud.
Good food.

Haven't been to Black's in years but wasn't impressed. Was outrageously loud, more than LaFonda loud!!! Food was ok.

What I can't figured out is why would the third owner of a restaurant keep the same name where that business has already failed twice...


I don't think Richard's is open yet for crawfish..

Alright, y'all talked me into it. Myself, Mrs. Janky and the two little Jankies will be there tonight as well. I could go for some raw oysters.
