Jane's French Cuisine

Absolutely exquisite dinner! First place I’ve been to in Lafayette and I am so happy I drove by. The food was extremely thoughtful, while creating a modern take on traditional French cuisine. The soup I had was just incredible - the most comforting and flavorful starter. It was incredibly smooth, the texture was so admirable. The lamb shake was perfect, falling off the bone and massive in size - you could share it. The sauce was the perfect amount of salty for the pairing potatoes and ratatouille. The dessert also, so comforting and the perfect end. Not too sweet and everything on the dish paired so perfect together. The bread at the beginning of the meal is also perfect - the best butter ever. Cheers to Hannah - she is fantastic. I very much will be back! (To note - the menu is PERFECT for the winter season, it was like a hug)

It has been many, many years since I have had a meal where every bite is not just good. But ASTONISHING. Great food takes time. This is some of the best food I have had in the entire world. I have eaten at many “fine restaurants”…the fois gras…the veal….the crème brule….every distinct. NEW. But familiar. The finest French food I have maybe ever had? It’s a small team. Give them time. Enjoy the atmosphere. Sit outside if you want more peace and quiet. It is a small place. SO WORTH IT.

What a great spot in Lafayette. We went with a group of 4 and enjoyed everything we had. Please understand everything is freshly prepared as ordered. Our dinner took almost 3 hours and we had no issues with that. The Foie Gras was one of the best things I have ever eaten. Everyone at the table agreed. I also has the rabbit tenderloin and it was amazing. Please give this place a try if you haven't.

What a beautiful addition to Lafayette’s expansive pallet this restaurant is. The service was attentive and strived to cover the commotion coming from the chef and exposed kitchen. I’ve read through some of these reviews indicating they felt like the chef’s behavior and outward abuse of his sous chef and line cook to be downright comical. If you’re looking for a restaurant with exquisite service and creative food and don’t mind hearing berating pander over your table’s conversation then this is truly the spot for you. If you are looking for a quaint romantic evening to converse, enjoy a meal, and drink a good glass of wine then I would recommend calling ahead to request being seated away from the dining room where the exposed kitchen is located. In addition to witnessing the high volumed commotion in the kitchen, you’re also leaving there smelling of fumes from the food being cooked. As I mentioned at the beginning of this review, the food and service are delectable and a lovely addition to Lafayette. Unfortunately, as you Lafayette natives know, this location is missing the mark in southern warmth and charm based solely on the chef’s behavior. It was so bad that a table next to use aborted their dinner and left before beginning to peruse the menu. I regret not following suit.

Went with my husband for our anniversary dinner, and the food was prepared and cooked TO PERFECTION. Do not come here, if you want a quick meal, but RUN here, if you are looking for a lasting and luxurious culinary experience. We spent about 3 hours here, and it was well worth the wait. Portions, ingredients and professionalism could not be improved upon. Will definitely book again.

We left after waiting an hour and half without receiving our order. The bread left at the table after 45 minutes was tasty. The server was clearly overwhelmed, and though not her fault, it did not set a very romantic tone for a Valentine's dinner. We paid for our bottle wine and left dissapointed. This is not fine dining.

Well we came here based on a recommendation for a friend for my wife’s birthday. It started well with a quaint intimate setting and home made bread was awesome, but went downhill from there. We had to wait 45 mins or more between courses, the worst being the main. The $170 wagyu was melt in your mouth tender but was so salty it was like eating out of a bowl of Morton’s salt. We had to wait over a half hour just to have our cups refilled, which by then all of our food was cold. Not entirely the servers fault as they had one waitress for the whole place on a Saturday who was stressed and crying already. Dessert was pretty good but by then we were ready to just go. We also witnessed other tables leave without being served as they waited over a half hour and never even got their drinks to start with. Overall for the most expensive single meal we’ve had, it was close to the worst experience. We’ll probably stick with Texas Roadhouse from now on.

Phenomenal place in the middle of Lafayette. Chef Will Baxter and crew have a great thing going here. Our server Ronnie made sure we had everything we need to make the meal enjoyable. The service could not have been better. Every dish was prepared to perfection. The A5 Wagyu....mouth watering. I have had the privilege of dining in some of the best restaurants in the US and I would place the food at Jane's right next to any of them. Patronize this place over and over again. Their great work deserves it.
