re: Shrimp po-boy in Lafayette

I've found the seafood gumbo at Don's Downtown to be good and tasty when I've had it. Unfortunately, the entrees I've tried were bland and below average.

I am not a fan of their gumbo, but its ok. The only thing I have found that I like is their seafood salad. It is sad when the best thing on your menu starts with lettuce. However, this fool claims they are awesome and olde tyme is trash.

You came into this thread just to act like an a-hole, congrats you've accomplished your goal

Nice melt in here

I don't know that I've had an entree there in a gazillion years. Not much on the menu is appealing to me other than what I named. I guess the fried shrimp may have been an entree. I don't recall. They were plump shrimp, with a light crispy not greasy crust. I haven't been there is a few years I don't believe.

I had an Olde Tyme shrimp poboy once and it was pretty good. Not great, but certainly good and good enough to have again. I'd try something else there, too.

I've had the same experience with Olde Tyme's shrimp poboy. I've never liked that place and have never understood the love for it.

Chris's and Juliens are both better poboy options than Old Tyme.
