Cafe Evangeline - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

They would not sit 6 of us, even tho we offered to put tables together. There were also 4 tables completely open also

Wow! This place is amazing! The drinks were top notch. The food had us all in our happy place! Great food, drinks and service!

A very nice little Café-Restaurant situated in an old bank-building. We had an excellent fish/seafood dinner acompanied by fruity Pinot Grigio. For desert we had KeyLimePie... also delicious. Unfortunately we are passing through this area, so we will not be able to come back. Yet we highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to taste perfectly prepared fish and seafood. 👍👍👍👏👏👏😋

My first ever Shrimp and Grit experience!! Blew me away. I’m a southern girl and was never enticed by the combination. I couldn’t get past the two things going together. Omg… with a side of the Brussels sprouts (a personal favorite) I will be a fan for life. With the service, atmosphere and trusting the rep of the chef I would order anywhere else from my first impression. I am still hoping to have a soft shell crab sandwich there one day. It’s what attracted me to try them in the first place. By the way it was where I went for Lunch on my Birthday!!! A gift in itself all with cuisine! Awesome.

Absolutely amazing!! We stumbled upon this quaint little Cafe and were blown away!! The building is an old bank; beautifully restored. The service was very fancy(something I’m definitely not accustomed to). I don’t have words for how good the food was. Absolute perfection!! Definitely will be going back.

Food was excellent...very nice atmosphere, kinda of reminds me of new Orleans...service was very friendly and welcoming, price is good for the great quality of food and service..The bonus is the very tasty cocktails at a very reasonable price ..highly recommend this for a date night . 👍

This is a great little spot to grab lunch if you're not in a rush. The building has a lot of history and it sets the atmosphere. The food we had was excellent. I'm keto so the wedge salad with blackened chicken was perfect. My friends both had the Cuban sandwich and it looked amazing. Definitely will have to return soon!

Amazing food, service and atmosphere.

Items on menu were not served. What was served was not very good and cheep food for price paid. Waitress had no knowledge of menu. Don't know how they stay in business.

I loved the atmosphere here. It’s a small but well kept upscale dining room. The wait staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. I had the stuffed pork chop which was more like two pork tenderloin chops sandwiching this wonderful stuffing. Totally not what I was expecting but it was a big bang of a surprise eating it. It was wonderful! And that sauce, so good. The potatoes were cooked well like I like them, they had a nice crunch. And the corn grits were a great addition. The owner came over and asked how I liked things and was very nice. We had a great conversation like we knew each other from long ago. Everyone here was no pleasant. I wish it wasn’t so far away from me it would be a go to place for me or when I want to impress friends. It is definitely on my list of places to return to so when I’m in town I will try my best to come back. Give this place a try it’s definitely a winner!

Parking is difficult but the food was great. Super attentive server. Priced about right for the food. Very clean old bank building

Chloe and Salina are wonderful. Food was great. The place is historic. If you are traveling through Ville Platte you have to stop here.

A great place to eat! The food is always tasty and the drinks are interesting! I love the blackened redfish and the stuffed trout!

Great food and diverse menu. Prices were very reasonable for quality and variety of food.

First time in Ville Platte and I felt fortunate that I was able to find the café Evangeline for lunch. The service was attentive and quick and the food was delicious. I had the grilled Brussel sprouts which is one of my favorites and their preparation was perhaps one of the most flavorful I’ve ever enjoyed. I guess my only pushback would be the portion size; a little on the smaller side which was fine since I had to drive back to New Orleans but if I were hungrier I might’ve needed to order another side. The prices reflect the premier status of Café Evangeline as one of the top food destinations in town so, I guess, if you’re looking for lots and lots of food this might not be the place for you.

Great tasting food and good service

So good! I wanted to lick my plate!

MY husband and I really enjoyed our food and the employees and chef were very nice. We.will.be going back.

Loved being able to relax on the patio and have a delicious meal. I usually try to find locally owned restaurants when passing through. This one did not disappoint me. My waitress Chloe, was very attentive, charming and friendly. The food was fresh, served hot and great!

Atmosphere is great. Old bank building very well done. Good food, excellent service.

Fries were not good tasted freezer burnt and one hamburger was over cooked and wrong cheese and the chicken sandwich.. the chicken was tough and was only half the size of bun.. was disappointed, but will give them one more try.

Very nice environment. Food was great! Business women supporting each other meeting was great! Looking forward to next meeting!

Fantastic atmosphere and the food was great. Shrimp and fish tasted like they were caught that morning. Our waitress was very attentive. It was our first visit but not our last.

First time there, really loved the place. The food and service was excellent. Highly recommend.

Limited menu but the food is delicious.

Gah, so good. The tasso stuffed chicken with cheese grits and asparagus, amazing. Such friendly people inside too.

First time to CE. Kudos to Pam Rivers McGee for the beautifully done iconic historic Bank. To the owner, staff, and bar, it was a wonderful experience with great food and martinis and warm welcoming service. So nice to see the extensive efforts coming to fruition. Best of success to all involved!

Food and service were excellent!😊

great food it was a nice quiet place for a date night

A great place to eat. You will be satisfied with their menu and prices especially for lunch.

Amazing food, drinks and atmosphere. The ambiance of the place is unbelievable ❤️

Drinks and food were fabulous. Service was great too. This was our first visit, we will be back. Thanks for the great experience!

The drinks are top notch, the food is excellent and for the quality of the food the price is considerably low.

Excellent food, atmosphere and service.

High end atmosphere, though not pricy for eating out. $8-10 entrees. Wonderful staff and attentive owner. The smokey gumbo was not to my liking, though the crab cake stuffed trout was delicious.

The food is amazing, as was the atmosphere. Great job.
