Not often you get to sit down for dinner and both people in your party enjoy the appetizer, meal and dessert. Fantastic service, great atmosphere and a rotating menu that doesn't disappoint. One of our favorite dinner spots in the greater Lafayette area.

My husband brought me here for my birthday and it was soooo good! Very friendly and welcoming at the hostess stand and our waitress, who was training, was very polite and helpful in answering questions. I ordered The Mumbler cocktail and it was probably the best version of a Manhattan I've ever had. We both ordered the Beef Hanger Steak with shredded brussel sprouts, something we've never tried before but so glad we did because it was delicious! We also never get dessert when we go out but since it was a special day we decided on bread pudding to share. They brought it out with a candle and a happy birthday! Very impressed overall and can't wait to go back!

Great atmosphere- just really loud, which should be expected. Food was really good. Waygu beef burger was tasty - LEFT ME wanting more - wish it was a bit bigger /more filling for $26. It was delicious. I'll be back.

Well, we normally post when we are most satisfied or least satisfied and in this case it’s a winner all around. I’ll be back there again for sure since I was traveling solo I sat at the bar and was very well treated by the staff. The beer on draft was tasty. They let me sample a few, and I picked one then moved on to dinner. They offer delicious and somewhat unique entrées. I had the pork chop with the fresh fennel and dried apricots since I’m a fennel fan. This was a hit for me and the pork chop was served hot and perfectly cooked. I also got a side salad which at this place is pretty impressive so don’t hesitate to choose this place if you want some quality food and drink and atmosphere along with staff taking an interest in you.

Wow, what a surprise stopping through on a road trip. Everything was great and the standout to me was the service. People working as a team. Alana was especially conscientious and kind, which really made our day. Easy parking. A group of helpful, smiling faces at the hostess stand. Tons of drinks on the menu. Good variety of food. Came quickly. Very fresh. reasonable prices. Clean. Kiddo loved the steak tacos with truffle fries. All modifications were met without error. Plating was beautiful. Portions plentiful.

Seriously amazing experience. Boyfriend and I found this place for a quick date night and will definitely be back! The ribs were AMAZING and the wagyu burger was phenomenal. Cocktails are on point and the beer cold. Bartenders are a well oiled machine and so fun to watch them work. HIGHLY recommend this place.

I’m in Lafayette for a bowing tournament. Decided to check out East End Grill. We made a lunch reservation after a long wait the night before so we headed somewhere else. When we arrived, they had our table ready and already set for us. The service was top notch. Food, we ordered a pork belly appetizer and it wasn’t good. The waitress as led if we were done and if we liked it, I told her not really and sh took it off our bill. Lunch absolutely fantastic. I got the steak tacos with Ceasar salad and my boyfriend got the Rueben. They were both amazing and I’d come back and eat this over and over. They had some pretty cool drinks. I got a gin drink and it changed colors when adding fresh squeezed lemon juice. I also ordered their berry crumble cake and I could have eaten 25 pieces. I highly recommend checking them out!!

Had some business up in Lafayette this evening and found this gem in a quaint neighborhood thanks to Grok. The place was packed but we found a couple seats at the bar and Alicia was on point with a bubbly attitude, recommendations and service! Note, for being completely packed, the noise level was moderate, surprisingly! We loved that! We started with the truffle fries, sadly no picture. But a huge basket of hand cut, double fried potatoes, covered with Parmesan cheese and herbs. Oh, and the cheese and herbs were layered with the fries, not just dumped on top leaving most of the basket plain.The truffle aioli was so good. There are enough fries for 4 people! My gf went with the hanger steak with chimichurri sauce along with roasted fingerling potatoes, snow peas and cherry tomatoes. I decided to try the pan seared duck breast with glazed carrots and cauliflower puree. Both were amazing, everything seasoned just right and cooked perfectly. The chef and her staff are amazing. If I had one critique, it would be the plating of the vegetables on my gf’s plate, they looked to just be tossed onto the plate at last minute. They were still delicious though! We topped off the fabulous meal with a coconut cake with pineapple filling, grilled pineapple pieces and a pineapple puree. It was amazing. Thank again for a wonderful evening. We will be back!

Absolutely loved this place! The Pomegranate Lavender Red Sangria — burgundy wine with brandy, lavender, pomegranate and citrus — was such a fun and refreshing surprise. The Pork Tenderloin Sandwich on herbed focaccia with sun-dried tomato jam was packed with flavor, the House-Cut Truffle Fries were dangerously addictive, and the Sun Dried Tomato Pasta in white wine butter sauce was the kind of dish you’re still thinking about on the drive home. On top of all that, our server was attentive without being overbearing — checked in at just the right moments and made the whole experience feel easy and genuine. One of those meals where everything just clicks. Already planning a return visit! 🙌
