Cafe Josephine

This is a wonderful place in Sunset. My sister and I were passing through on a Thursday. YEAH! Oyster night!! We started with a dozen charbroiled. Perfect!! Had to get the egg rolls since they were so good the last time we dined thrre. Just excellent! Sister had fried catfish. I had the eggplant crab dinner...breaded, fried eggplant medallions, broiled tomato topped with creamy crabmeat sauce and some fried shrimp! Outstanding! As usual...we ordered more than we could eat...so had a great lunch the next day!

We had an amazing dinner at Café Josephine! It started off strong with a perfectly crafted Old Fashioned—smooth, balanced, and just the right amount of kick. For our appetizer, the crab egg rolls were a standout: crispy on the outside and packed with flavorful, fresh crab on the inside. For our mains, I had the oysters, which were fresh and beautifully presented—absolutely delicious. My husband went with the pork chop served with mashed potatoes and gravy, and it was incredible. The pork chop was thick, juicy, and cooked to perfection, and the mashed potatoes were creamy and comforting, with rich, savory gravy tying it all together. The ambiance was cozy yet elegant, and the service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We’ll definitely be back!

We came here with reservations on a Friday night and were seated when we walked in. Everything we ordered was absolutely amazing and some of the best food we’ve ever had. We got the ribeye pork chop, the country fried steak, charbroiled oysters and a few extra sides. The pork chop was the table favorite, cooked perfectly and well seasoned literally melts in your mouth. But everything was delicious and would be ordered again. The biscuits that you get when you sit down were soft, warm and perfectly sweet. The charbroiled oysters were garlicky and butter and our server brought us some crab stuffed jalapeños which were also super good. They brought a piece of bread pudding out to help us celebrate a birthday too, which was really good and super sweet of the staff. All that said, our server Louis was extraordinary. We’ve never had a server take such good care of us, ever. We truly appreciated the kindness and attentiveness from him and Cafe Josephine. He even packed a few biscuits for our toddler that woke up from a nap as we were leaving. We couldn’t be more thankful. Very down home vibe and definitely down home cooking, we loved this place.

The food is great. I am not a huge fan of Worcestershire sauce in butter on a beautifully cooked filet but it somehow worked with the addition of the Teardrop ( Biquinho ) peppers. The cook on the steak was originally perfect but it died in the window and sadly was served cool. As such, the butter sauce coagulated and it had an off-putting mouth feel. Once it was rewarmed if was ok. The server was super nice but sadly overwhelmed. The meal came out in stages to the point where the wilted spinach had to be packed to go. I will say the bread pudding is awesome and the Happy Anniversary message on the plate was a nice...and thoughtful...touch. Sadly, I could not enjoy the meal. It is entirely too loud. We (a two top) were seated (crammed) between two large birthday parties who were competing to be heard...it was, honestly miserable and anxiety inducing. The menu is a bit pricey but again, quality of the food is worth it...just wish I could say the same for the overall experience. I will try again because I really believe the place has something great to offer a person who loves a good steak. Pro-tip: Avoid peak times on Friday & Saturday, request to be seated in a booth, and be sure to make a reservation but still be prepared for a 20 or so minute wait.

Our server, Ali, was amazing! Attentive, sweet, and efficient! She said she normally worked as hostess, but was filling in due to short staffed. Well, we couldn't tell because she was great and the entire restaurant flowed in their service! Great job! Oh, and the food and cocktails were amazing and delicious!

If you don't know about this place you'll miss out on some really good food. The building don't have the name on it so you better use Google maps. Get there before the open the doors at 5pm or make a reservation, the old folks line starts early. The crab stuffed egg rolls were good, the crab cakes is all crab with no filler were said to be the best my wife has ever had and presentation was a 10. I had the chargrilled oysters which were clean and good, shrimp were very good. My daughter wasn't a fan of the ribs, said they were a little tough. Cafe Josephine in Sunset Louisiana is definitely a must go.

Our waitress Maddison was absolutely perfect. Very attentive and kept us all happy! We will be back. The chicken and sausage gumbo was absolutely delicious.

Had our first visit here recently. Food was very good. We went on an oyster night and they were delicious! We also got the hot seafood dip appetizer that was so good. My Old Fashioned was good, not great, I wouldn’t order it again. It was very loud in there. Kinda disappointing for us because we wanted to be able to talk. Service was fantastic though! Update: went again and everything we had was very disappointing. Too spicy to enjoy. We decided the oysters were best but there are better places to get oysters. Atmosphere was still loud. We won’t go back.

I love eating here when I'm visiting back home in Opelousas. I typically make reservations to make sure we don't have to wait. I've eaten multiple dishes here and have enjoyed all of them. I've had the shrimp and grits, zydeco shrimp, chargrilled oysters, and the seafood platter (grilled and fried).

Started strong with Crabmeat nachos and Jalapeño Duck poppers, but petered out with slow delivery of Ribeye tips and fried shrimp. I settled for thin scraps of rib-eye tips since they were out of Lamb chops, and somehow my wife did not receive her green beans promptly. All a bit underwhelming from previous visits. Our server, Kit, was working diligently during our visit, so we appreciated his effort. I do not recommend the Ribeye Tip dish.

Came here for the first time and overall the food and service was average. It's a nice restaurant for a small town however the prices were expensive compared to the quality of the food and service. We had the corn and crab bisque and filet. The corn and crab bisque was delicious and my favorite part of the meal. However, the steak was not worth the price in my opinion. I'd be open to trying other dishes on the menu rather than steak. I've been to many steak restaurants and this is simply not their specialty. The drinks were good! Our waiter did forget a few things but apologized and corrected everything. All sides were average.

We were seated at 5:35pm. Two of us so it early for a Friday night. Our waiter Louis was just amazing. He answered every question we had about the menu. We ordered drinks and appetizers and our entrees. This was our first time and Yelpers helped us make the decisions on where to have our date night. We will return. Love your place.

Great experience. Favorites were the charbroiled oysters, steak, green beans, and spinach.

Delicious steaks ! I had a filet med rare , so good ! I tried the Malbec. I've never had that brand before, it was very good. I added ice ...our waitress was so nice and helpful. I can't recall her name. Great ambiance, nice decor. It was kinda loud, but that shows people were enjoying themselves. We had fried duck and wontons. They were yummy ! And bang bang shrimp with pepper jelly. It was all so good !

So delicious! Not an oyster fan, but these were so good. The zydeco shrimp tacos were also so yum!We will definitely be back

In the area for business a friend suggested cafe Josephine for some delicious country cooking. Comfortable and casual environment id suggest making a reservation even on a Wednesday night which we had. Great variety of options, we shared the seafood combo Zydeco- fantastic and I had the Seafood platter -Blackened The seafood platter was more then enuff to knock out my hunger - couldn't finish it all! It included local fish, shrimp, crab cake , etouffe and gumbo! Cafe Josephine a definite stop when your near sunset

This restaurant is one of my favorites, and I only bumped into it a few years ago. I'm so glad that someone who lives nearby shared this experience with me. if you're looking for a date night place with a great meal and a great vibe check this place out.

Ambience is great overall a good place to eat . It's just one of those smaller local persons kind of spot. Everyone seems to know everyone... which if your trying for the first time kind of makes you feel like your the new kid and it's first day of class the food and selection is good Compared to any place else in surrounding area

Great service!! Amazing steaks and all the sides. Those biscuits are noteworthy and the chargrilled oysters are legendary!!! Make a reservation and enjoy this hidden gem.

Ordered panini. Didn't have ingredients to make sandwich. Ordered gumbo. Can't even say how much I disliked. And I know good gumbo. Got burger and onion rings. Burger great. Onion rings were not hot. Pet peeve.

Super delicious, menu was creative and service was great. The ambience was quaint and warm and we would absolutely go back! The biscuits that come out as you sit are incredible!! Drinks were great and we had an overall good time even in a big party of 8 people we had no trouble getting in and seated.

Wish I could give more stars. Everything we had was culinary perfection. Great menu with lots of choices, something for everyone. Wait staff was friendly and attentive. Good parking. Nice ambiance, perfect for a casual family dinner or a dressy date night. Appetizers were great, and entrees were unforgettable. This place will have you always wanting to go back. Can't wait for our next visit!

This place is so cute! Everything was very tasty, I'd definitely be back. I forgot to take a picture of the crawfish nachos, they didn't last long if you know what I mean. The biscuits that they give you are sooo delicious and buttery with a great flavor. The service team was so polite and helpful. My only complaint is that the seafood platter was so spicy that my mother couldn't even finish it.

Cafe Josephine I absolutely love this restaurant. They have the greatest steaks anywhere around (fight me on that) and the steaks are sorced from a local butcher shop and a local cattle raiser right here in Louisiana that is veteran supported and delicious too. You can support local on so many ways by eating here. This last time we went we had great service from Macy. She was attentive but not overly attentive and had just the right recommendations. They will customize any order within their means and make everything so perfect it is crazy. Chef and owner Troy does a fabulous job from preparation to plate that it wants you to forget all of the other places within 100 miles. The ribs are awesome, as are the fresh oysters whether grilled or raw. All.of the seafood is fresh and delicious. We have only made this a couples restaurant and left the kids at home each time and will continue to do so. Best left for adults. Do not go here if you are looking for a cheap meal. You won't find it. But you will find a fabulous meal excellently prepared that is worth more than the money you spend.

Great hidden gem! We started with the grilled oyster trio and they were all amazing. My husband doesn't love spinach but really liked the spinach and bacon ones. He got an Old Fashioned. Upgraded the whiskey and it was delicious, only it didn't come on a big rock. I had a French 75 which was also good but it was not chilled. For dinner he got the seafood pasta and loved it. The portion was crazy big. I had the eggplant and it was perfect. I didn't opt for the additional noodles and I'm glad I didn't because I had plenty. Biscuits were fresh out of the oven and were a treat. We finished our meal with bread pudding which we both agreed was fluffier than most places and it was also very tasty. We had a nice night with great service. I would definitely return.

Omg!! I was fooled by previous ratings. Don't order the Seafood Gumbo!! It was a watery mess of nothing. The worst gumbo I ever had!! Nothing but water mix with 2 pieces of small shrimp. Tasted absolutely nasty. Had one spoon and left the entire cup on the table. Even the waiter was embarrassed by the gumbo because he didn't even ask me why I didn't eat it. The oyster was not cold cold like they should be and they looked "dirty" inside. I am guessing very cheap pick from the Bayou!! I should have tried their "$49.00" steak!!! Will never eat here again. Passing through from Colorado. Seems like the locals love it there.

Called for a last minute reservation and got in at 5:45 on a Saturday. We were seated quickly and promptly greeted by our waitress, Amanda. Service was top notch all night. Amanda was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We were seated next to a large party that she took care of as well. Their service did not overshadow ours, and we noticed her being as involved with them as with the 2 of us. She works W, FR, Sat and we recommend her. This was a celebration dinner and we celebrated. We also brought home lots of leftovers. The steak prices seem a bit high, but the quality and quantity of food is there. Sweet biscuits were brought to the table. These were good but do not fill up on carbs; the good stuff is coming. We started with chargrilled oysters and a sweet potato balls. The oysters were great per hubby (I can do without them), but the sweet potato balls stole the show. My husband had the tomahawk. A 40 oz. beast that was smoked then grilled. The Peruvian sweet peppers on top were a special treat. Two sides: twice baked potato and smothered green beans. The green beans were good but a bit over seasoned for our taste; however with a bit of the potato, it was perfect. An amazing entree choice and would be the best if I had not ordered... the rib-eye cap. Definitely a full 14 oz steak that is the best part of the ribeye prepared to perfection via sou vie and reverse grilled. In place of the green beans, I ordered Brussel sprouts. They had a nice heat to them via the sriracha added to the drizzle. The only misstep of the night was when the kitchen forgot my lump crab meat on top of the steak but we ordered it to go and will enjoy it at home over some grilled tuna. It was a birthday celebration celebration so Amanda brought bread pudding. It had been baked in a large muffin and was a nice not too sweet end to our meal. The caramel praline sauce that was on our sweet potatoes was equally good on the bread pudding. The restaurant was busy and nothing was rushed but the energy around us, the excellent service, and fantastic food made this a memorable meal at a place we will want to try again.

My first time eating here & The place was packed out so I was excited but quickly disappointed with the chargrilled oysters. They had no flavor and actually tasted not grilled. It was odd...almost like raw oysters instead of grilled. I could see the flames and the man cooking them on site but the flavor wasn't like that buttery grilled I had had before at another restaurant in Baton Rouge. The grilled shrimp salad was the second disappointing thing because it was literally lettuce, 2 slices of cucumber, 2 cherry tomatoes and 4 grilled shrimp with tails on top. The portion was very little like a side salad and with a hefty price for lettuce!!! Lettuce is cheap.....should spruce it up for presentation! My husband LOVED the duck and devoured it but his sides were just ok. The best part was the Happy Birthday cheesecake! I'll try this place again but not sure worth the drive from Lafayette, which has numerous restaurants

The food, is outrageously delicious. The drink; a duck washed Old Fashioned was excellent as well. From the char grilled oysters to the fried or grilled seafood platter, you really can't go wrong.

Went for our year anniversary and Cafe Josephine did NOT disappoint. My husband and I have separately traveled all over the world and yet the best steak we have ever had was here. We both got the filet mignon and it was so velvety smooth that you could cut it with a fork! Our server, Macy, was FABULOUS! She was knowledgeable about the specials and knew what we were going to ask before we asked it. Amazing experience all the way around. 10/10 would do again.

We were some of the first customers on a Wednesday evening. The restaurant was pretty full within the first hour. We were greeted and seated by friendly staff and enjoyed great service throughout our time there. My husband and I shared the oyster trio. Very delicious! He had the wedge salad and I had the bisque. Both fresh and delicious. We weren't super hungry but I noted some things I'd like to try from the menu on our next visit. Great little spot worth getting off the beaten path to experience a nice meal.

Get alllllllllll the oysters you can fit in your mouth, because they are AWESOME here. Raw, chargrilled, fried.. omg YUM!! We love visiting this restaurant, and are never disappointed in the food of service.

Love everything about this restaurant. An oyster bar is even located inside. Food and service are both 5 star.

Food was awesome as always! We Will definitely be back soon. The service was great! I had the oysters and my husband had the scallops over pasta special.

Overall, I'd give this place 3.5 stars. The biscuits were tasty, and crab egg rolls were good, but missing the "oomph" that would've put them over the top. My wife enjoyed her eggplant/crab/shrimp dish. I had the ribeye and it was a little salty for my taste, and I felt it was a little overpriced ($48). It was listed as prime, but honestly it didn't seem like it. I did enjoy the little peppers on top. I'm glad I tried it, but doubt I'll ever go back.

Literally my favorite restaurant in the state. The steaks are amazing! The service is exceptional and very personal. Sit at the oyster bar if you have the opportunity.

Hats off to the Chef! They truly know their seafood. As a seafood lover, I know seafood and being Cajun, I know seasonings. The seafood was perfect! Perfectly seasoned and cooked perfect. Long time seafood restaurants locally screw of both 99% of the time. The Chef here knows his stuff. I got the fried seafood platter and everything was packed with flavor and tasted fresh. The seafood rice was the best I've ever eaten. The seafood cake and stuffed shrimp kept me coming back for more bites after I was full. Charbroiled Oysters-top notch! The only complaint is, we got one little slice of bread to soak up all that delicious oyster liquor and it one little slice wasn't enough. The Cajun Mule was so delicious. It's the perfect summer cocktail. I could have drank these all night. My husband ordered the chicken fired steak. He commented that it was tender and well seasoned. It wasn't at all chewy for a thinker steak. He loves the twice baked potato and said he could have ordered one to go home. No pictures of dessert but we ordered the blackberry cobbler and the pecan pie. The pecan pie was sooo delicious and I wish we would have order two. The blackberry cobbler wasn't for us. It was flavorful but we didn't care for the crumble topping and it eat more like blackberry pudding. Take note of the local artist. Near our table I recognized Boogi's art! Love it!

Horrible!!!!! Busy and crowded with loud drunk cackling hens next to us. Waited for 45+ minutes for our food. Had better hamburgers at fast food restaurants. Cold fries. Shrimp po boy was good. The chicken Alfredo was mediocre at best. It's obvious they're the only restaurant in town.

Look, I'll spare commentary on the overall quality of the restaurant - it's very good food. I have two issues with my experience: 1. There are absolutely supply chain issues that will result in menu items being unavailable. When your server (who was exceptional) has to apologize for the fact that the 'Big Pork Chop' is actually two of their 'Light Chops' because they haven't had a bone in pork chops is months, update the menu. 2. An $11 "No Cash Fee" charge? with no warning whatsoever? Beyond the questionable practice, advertise that before the check comes. Had I known, I would have brought cash for the evening. At 4%, I feel more than a bit taken advantage of.

Terribly disappointed. So looking forward to the crab cakes, but they were seasoned way too spicy to enjoy the delicate crab meat. It was loaded with crab meat but they were tiny and way too expensive-$44.00 with two sides, if you can call grilled tomato a side. The most horrendous entree we had was the Prime Rib Cap steak. Market price ...$84.99!!!! Totally ridiculous. My husband loves spicy food, but this steak was so highly seasoned he couldn't eat it. We should have asked the price first but we had looked on line beforehand and it was $30 less! Then, an extra order of asparagus came out as we were ready to leave! On top of all this disappointment, we waited over 45 minutes for our meals because our waiter said " so sorry but someone picked up your steak by mistake." Really?! We will never return.

Visited this little gem of a Louisiana eatery nestled in a delightfully rural area. Lots of great seafood on the menu and the complimentary biscuits are fire. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting this part of Louisiana & be immersed in local culture and friendly people.

Always amazing. My husband and I got the specials of the night. Scallops and grits and "Out of the woods" Venison, Elk and Quail. Started with the chargrilled oysters and they were some of the best I've ever had. And we eat a lot of oysters.

Decided to check this place out while spending the weekend visiting Sunset, LA. We were informed upon arrival that there was no seating available as they were full on reservations for the evening. We asked if the bar was available for seating and the hostess said yes, she could seat us there. Don't count on this always being the case we arrived VERY early on a Saturday evening around 5:30. The place ended up getting super packed so make a point to make a reservation or risk missing out. The bar ended up being a great spot for my friend and I to sit. Becca the bartender was PHENOMENAL. Our great experience was due largely in part to her, her expertise in her craft and welcoming nature. We easily tried half of the cocktail menu and were delighted to find she had constructed it herself. Many of the vodkas are house infused and it's honestly such a special extra touch. For drinks we ordered the blueberry lemon tini, strawberry limeade, espresso martini, Josephine punch, black berry sangria, and pineapple upside cake- you won't even find that one on the menu she whipped it up just for me. Don't a bad drink was had and those could get their own separate review. For food we tried the trio oysters which we fantastic and made a great appetizer to split. My friend got the shrimp and grits and I had the eggplant and crab dinner without the pasta. Everything was hot and fresh and so tasty plus we enjoyed watching the guys work the grill. They were doing a 32oz steak and it was HUGE but so fun to watch them grill up. This was honestly a fantastic meal and restaurant experience. The only thing we missed out on were the biscuits they apparently serve at the tables but trust me, we will be back and I will be sure to try those!

Good food, good atmosphere. A little loud on a Fri or Sat night. The wait staff is great. Good place for a date night.

This bustling restaurant offers a fun lively atmosphere, good drinks from the bar and a diverse menu that doesn't shy away from rich foods. And then there's the BISCUITS! They come complimentary with your dinner- you can request at lunch and pay a small fee that is very worth it. They are light, fluffy and slightly sweet and oh so good. Service here is friendly and efficient. Low ceilings do contribute to a noisy room when they are busy. This place is worth the drive!

Food was excellent. Oysters perfectly grilled. Very reasonable price for oysters on tues-thurs nights. Service was excellent also. Very nice setting and a huge grill you can sit around and watch them cook if you want.

First i would like to say that, Cafe Josephine's has always been my favorite go to spot and is definitely one of the few places I patronize. That all changed on Wednesday Night. We arrived when the doors opened at 5pm. First thing we were greeted and taken to a room away from bright lights, music and vibrant atmosphere of restaurant. We felt isolated and ostracized but didn't make a fuss of it. Secondly Our server brought out biscuits that were descent but not what we've had in the past but nothing to complain about. Oysters were a 5 star slightly salty but the best dish of the night. Well we put in our order My husband and I ordered the 14 oz ribeye. My husband got his with the blue cheese topping. Salads were mediocre at best and the basil vinaigrette was very distasteful. When our steaks arrived they were nothing like we have ever had. The kicker was when my husband received his steak with blue cheese topping it had pecans sprinkled on it. The pecans were not even roasted. We have never in life seen anything like this. I wish that it gets better because it's very concerning to say the least. I have high hopes for this place but right now i will not be returning. It leads me to believe they have a new cook or chef and they have not adjusted. Good luck guys. I hope this was just a bad night.

Great food and top notch service. Had a drink at the bar prior to seating - expert mix.

It's the Ritz Carlton of Sunset. That's all I wanted to say but I'm told my review needs to be at least 85 more characters to be able to post so the ribs were really good and drizzled with some kinda fancy a' la' orange' sauce. It's also Dana Barras' favorite restaurant and she wasn't even mad when they accidentally dropped the plate of chargrilled oysters on her favorite sister-n-law. Her brother Digger was a lil bit mad and if he was playing hockey he probably would've beaten up someone since he'd never lost a fight in his whole life

Went for my husband's birthday. The charbroiled oysters were the best we have ever had, very large size as well. He had lamb, I had steak- both fantastic flavor. Twice baked potato was my favorite, sooo good!! Had bread pudding for dessert, which he is always a fan of and he said it was one of the best he's had. Would definitely go back!!

This salad was so fresh with local greens. The boiled shrimp were nicely seasoned. I was nice and full and healthy.

1st time to this place. In one word....fabulous!! Macy our waitress was great. This is as a Wednesday night not crowded but good crowd. If you are an oyster fan this place is great. We had the raw and char broiled oysters. Absolutely fantastic. Better than Dragos. Raw were fresh clean and salty! A little lemon juice and Tabasco sauce, heaven!

We cannot WAIT to return to Cafe Josephine!!! (We'll be able to locate it a little easier now that we've been, lol!) We ate there in May, the weekend of Festival International in Lafayette. I have rarely stopped thinking about our dinner at Josephine since! They were quite busy when we arrived (on a Saturday evening with no reservation!) but ALEXA at the bar made us PERFECT Old Fashioneds (and we are PICKY about our Olds) to sip while we waited. We watched her behind the bar for a few minutes, expertly filling wait staff orders as well as serving patrons at the bar. She was AMAZING! And a cheerful attitude all the while! We didn't wait long enough to finish our drinks and were escorted to our table with Olds in hand. MALLORY was our waitress and she was just as cheerful, helpful and talented as Alexa at the bar. I wish I had photos of our chargrilled dozen (really of all of our food) - OMG perfection!!! - Chef Troy (whom we called Mr. Big) came to chat with us so we could compliment the heck out of him and try to coerce his recipe for the special sauce he puts on the oysters, but he thought that was quite humorous, lol. After the oysters we shared the grilled seafood platter. Every single bite was a dream! (we literally moaned) I wish I could give this food and cafe wayyyyy more than five stars. Ten out of ten, highly recommend, will eat there again, even if we have to make a special trip all the way from New Orleans. THANK YOU CAFE JOSEPHONE!

Food (Po-Boys: oyster, shrimp, and fish), excellent onion rings and eggplant fries ) was outstanding. Service and staff were best ever. Will definitely return!!!

We have not had a sub-par meal here. Oyster trio is fantastic, even the chicken fried steak is good (needs some seasoning but good comfort food), steaks or seafood are bound to be good. The eggplant dish with crab and fried shrimp over angel hair is great! Our last appetizer of crab egg rolls is totally outside of our norm, but it was great. It's safe to try new things here. Everything will be good.

Good food however this place is 50% food 50% atmosphere...so if you're looking for a great setting to be with that special someone and descent food this is your place....however expect that atmospheric price when you get the bill.
