I have been coming to this seafood boiling barn for over 50 years. Established in 1957 and one of the first places of memory that was serving boiled crawfish around Lafayette. It’s an iconic Boil House.

Was recommended this place. They had a special on the seafood buffet 19.99 on a Tuesday night, so we drove 30 minutes to check it out. It is a little out of the way. Road is not the best once off the main street. It looks like a warehouse. Nothing fancy but good food. Great selection. CJ, our waiter was very attentive to our needs in a very busy environment. He filled my water without asking and stopped several times to check on us. After a big feast, 2 heaping plates of food. I was looking for something sweet. Low and behold at the cash were some chocolates and sweets for sale. It was a mint chocolate, my fav. Icing on the cake for me. Great place

Service was fair, Our server was very attentive I’ll give him that. Food was bland and underwhelming, Buffett was very limited on options, Atmosphere was fair, Biggest downfall was the Automatic $34.99 (Gratuity) Tip to the server.Since we all ate the buffet and all he had to do was bring drinks. buffet is definitely not worth $30 a person!!!!!!

We had the buffet which wasn’t bad for $15 a person. The problem is we paid more than $30 a person. $30 a person isn’t a bad price for a good seafood buffet. This was almost a good seafood buffet. It could’ve used a tad bit more seasoning And almost every fried thing on the buffet was overcooked. Fried crawfish, fried shrimp, fried frog legs, fried catfish all overcooked. And not buy a whole lot but enough to kill the value. I’m not the type of person to go around looking for things wrong with places. I normally have a positive outlook on food Because I’m fat. I wanted this place to be better. But it looks like I have to drive to Ville Platte Louisiana to get a quality seafood buffet. I brought bread pudding, home and sauce that goes on it taste like warm, carnation pet milk, very much lacking sweetness.

If I could give them zero stars I would! Worst customer service ever… I called to place a to go order at 5 minutes after 5:00 and was told they were just opening could I call back in 15 minutes, so I waited until 5:25PM and tried again. Then I was asked again if I could call back in a few minutes, so once again I waited 10 minutes and called back. Then I was asked if I could hold for a minute and could hear the girl, or I should say CHILD, in the back ground laughing and joking with other workers and not accomplishing any business whatsoever. After 15 minutes on hold I decided to hang up and try to call back, but now all I get is a busy signal which tells me they still haven’t bothered to pick up the phone to try to take the order. Any business that can’t bother to take a to-go order definitely doesn’t deserve my business. I don’t see how these people stay in business!

It has been about 15 years since I first went here and was determined to spend a night in Abbey, walk in the park near the courthouse, and return to Richard's! A great meal and excellent service!

It's the only buffet I enjoy. They have a seafood buffet. In season, they have select crabs and crawfish. The seasoning on them is spot on. The staff is very kind and attentive.
