Ruffino's Lafayette tonight

filet with crabmeat and imperial sauce. medium rare to rare. Crabmeat cheesecake. A lot of bread. and of course a few drinks. Dessert get the chocolate chip brownie with ice cream

Pork cheek app is really good, too. I got the pork tchoupitoulas as my entree and really enjoyed it.

We went Saturday night. My wife had the filet with crabmeat. I had the prime rib. The prime rib was one of the best I've ever had. It was every bit as tender as her filet!

If you're hungry, do yourself a favor and get the prime rib.

We also had the scallops and pork cheek for appetizers, both were superb.

Not sure if Lafayette has the Hanger Steak special with crabmeat but if they do it's awesome. Had it Friday night in BR.

Shrimp corn dogs. Nuff said

Thanks man. I was always a fan of the filet when I lived in BRbut may have to try the prime rib if its available. Gonna be a good date night, reservations at 6:30. Thanks again.

It was good. The wife and I each started with a salad. She had the sensation and I the lettuce wedge, both were good. As an entree she had the shrimp sorrento and said it was outstanding. I decided on the prime rib medium rare. The flavor and tenderness was very good but more medium plus than medium rare. Mine came with a side of mashed potatoes that were ok. We got cheesecake to go and ate it at the house. This was by far the worst part of the meal. I honestly think they made a mistake while making it. The texture was great but there was absolutely no hint of sweetness, I think they forgot the sugar. All in all, it was a good meal. I did not ask for Will or Morgan like Ruffin suggested for the "rockstar" treatment. I wanted to see how it would go as a regular patron. I will say this, the service was more than outstanding. Ruffin, if you read this you should consider the team wait staff concept in BR. Morgan said y'all were trying it here and I thought it was great. Your two managers were constantly floating around checking on guest and helping to clear tables. They did a great job. I will be back and look forward to when it opens for lunch.

I've never had their cheesecake for dessert but their crabmeat cheesecake is a can't miss. I couldn't go there without having it to start.

Yeah, that looks awesome. Mine was not even close to that nor was it that evenly cooked.
