The Best Restaurants in Lafayette, Louisiana, aka Cajun Country | Eater New Orleans
"For swanky, composed cocktails I head to Palmyre, a funky, see-and-be-seen room with peacock prints and red velvet wing chairs where top-shelf spirits and fresh juices shine (try the smoky Last of the Oaxacans layered with Luxardo and Chartreuse) and the drinks pair beautifully with indulgences like Oscietra caviar service or beef tartare." - Beth D’Addono
Obsessed with the interior. The staff is well trained and very knowledgeable! Haven’t had a cocktail at Palmyre that I didn’t love!

The aesthetics were immaculate.
However, it was so loud that my Fiancé and I couldn’t have a conversation. It was peak time on a Friday night, but otherwise I would certainly go back when it was quiet. I did not eat, but the prices were pretty high for drinks.

Came here for an event. Loved the decor. It was crowded and getting a drink took about 15 min but they were good. It is an upper end establishment as are most in the River Ranch area but great atmosphere. Probably much better on a less crowded night.

My husband and I came out here for our first date of the summer. We at first went to another local bar and started to dig online on where else to go. We found this and thought it looked interesting. Decided to go and have a drink to check it out. Ended up staying for 4 hours and had THE BEST TIME.The atmosphere was impeccable and swanky. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and kind. The drinks are AMAZING. Our favorite was the clarified strawberry Pina Colada. And our favorite food there was the burrata. The place was VERY pricey but it it a great SPECIAL date place. We will go back for sure!!!!

First time here to spend more time with my cousins and this place was phenomenal. Didn’t know it exists and glad it does. We were graced with the talented Luke Hackett. We told him what we were craving and he made it. Absolutely delicious!!! Great chill place. Not overcrowded and just a great atmosphere to be in. Love the decor and everything else about it. Cheers!

Great place to get a real craft cocktail. A pretty knowledgeable bar staff so don’t be afraid to order classic cocktails off menu. Decent atmosphere, Lafayette needs to continue to support places like this.
