Excellent home cooking! Hard to beat their multitude of selections. You aren't limited to 1 or 2 choices of food. Fresh fried chicken is

Stopped in with less than 30 minutes to close for lunch. Found a nice selection of meats and vegetables on the steam table. Picked the baked chicken plus greens, mixed vegetables, and rice dressing. They add dinner roll. Chicken fell off the bone tender, and they gave me enough for two people so I ate half and two sides. Saved the rest for later. Locally owned restaurant food is so much better than the franchise stuff. You just have to look outside the high rent strip mall areas.

If you're like me and want to support independent restaurants, Theriot's is a slam dunk. This place's daily menu has practically something for everyone. Me, I'm partial to Monday's 7-Steak in Gravy and Tuesday's Meatloaf with Mushroom Gravy. Add to that three additional sides you choose and you'll be in the zone. I can't say enough good things about them. We usually get something three times a week. Yeah, I think they're that good. Thank a million, folks. You keep cooking and we'll keep eating!

This is real deal homestyle Southern cooking. It is top-notch and New Iberia best kept secret. If you have company coming from out of state, this place is a must.
