Back In Time

Gourmet salads! In Opelousas!

Been in LA for almost a month, badly in need of a vegetable. Some divine combination of malnutrition and intuition made me turn around and go back in this tiny place, hoping for as much as a Caesar salad, opened the menu, blew my mind.

Got the awards-winning Grapes of Wrath with sweet and sour dressing. I’m a new man. Excellently blended flavors. Looks as good as it tastes. Worth the accolades.

Don’t get me wrong, the cuisine here has been a high point of the visit (second only to the people) but a man can’t live on meat pies, sausages in a doughnut, and crab cakes for breakfast alone. I’ll be working my way through this menu and taking some of this dressing (and local honey!) back to Tennessee.

Best cafe in Opelousas! Love this place and the beautiful owner is so gracious and knows about true hospitality. Always enjoy the food, especially the award-winning brownies and bread pudding!

I love this cafe. Ms Wanda goes above and beyond making sure her food is fresh in impeccably prepared. The staff are wonderful and friendly. It's not a quick pick something up kind of place, but the experience is calming, and the decor will take you "back in time". Besides if you're in a hurry, just call ahead and give them a few before you drive by💖

This place not only has great sandwiches but brings back in time when the world was a more simpler place. Go and support this local business!

Great food, a little crowded but still has a home-y vibe.

Loved this unique restaurant. So many choices, we ate family style, a little bit of everything including their award winning bread pudding

Absolutely amazing. Everything hand made, home town type vibe and my whole crew were treated like family. You’re doing yourself a disservice if you’re ever on Opelousas and don’t go here.

Best salad I have eaten in years. The pecans with the dressing was so scrumptious. Will be back!!

Whether Soup .sandwich or salad you can't go wrong here. The atmosphere is great and the food superb. Always get the Italian iced tea .

Friendly staff. Welcoming atmosphere. Fresh and delicious food.
