Darrell's Of Sulphur - Westlake

This is my absolute favorite place, wonderful service, wonderful people, exceptional food! If you haven't been here, you're not in Louisiana!

Went in for lunch on a Saturday. Forgot that there weren't plate lunches on the weekend, but went ahead and ordered the Ribeye and Grilled Shrimp Combo. The lady at the register was very nice and when I was struggling to figure out how to order sides that wouldn't ruin my diet, she suggested I get double salad which worked out perfectly. The ribeye wasn't all that, but the Shrimp were awesome. Beautiful size, seasoned well and cooked perfectly. They were so tasty, I was left wanting more. Next time I will just order the large grilled shrimp dinner and skip the steak.

My first visit here, as I stood at the counter waiting to place my order I was surprised by how messy the kitchen was. I watched a woman whom hadn't been making plates of food walk-in the kitchen with her cell phone in hand and started scooping food onto a plate for herself without wearing serving gloves like the other employees. The shrimp poboy was very tasty and I would recommend it. But the lack of cleanliness and the lady with the cell phone scooping food onto a plate forced me to give this place a 3 star rating.

If you are traveling on I-10 and keep seeing signs for boudin, this is a solid place to stop and enjoy the rich savory taste of Southwest Louisiana's famous snack. Lots of people order crawfish platters from here as well. Would recommend to anyone even remotely wanting to try boudin.

A hole-in-the-wall kind of place, but the food we tried was great. We stopped here twice during our travels and recommend the couple of miles of detour off of I-10 to check it out. It was crowded with locals both times (lunch time) and we just stuck to the meat pies and crawfish pies. They're a great price and size and so flavorful! They stay hot for a long time too. On our second trip, we called in 35 pies for pick up an hour later and they were ready to go when we got there. Easy peasy! We ate a few and plan to freeze the rest when we get home in Texas so we can have a little taste of Sulphur, Louisiana all year long!
