Since 1947, Judice Inn Has Been A Tradition For Many In Louisiana

Louisianians have many food traditions. Mondays are reserved for red beans and rice. On New Year’s Day, you can expect to feast on cabbage and black-eyed peas. On the first cold snap, you can bet every Louisianian is making their best roux for gumbo. There’s one restaurant in Lafayette that’s been a tradition for many for over 70 years, and that’s Judice Inn. Many families have passed through these iconic doors, introducing the next generation to some of the best burgers in Louisiana. Let’s take a closer look.

You’ll find Judice Inn in the heart of Lafayette.

When brothers Alcide and Marc Judice decided to open a restaurant back in 1947, they had no idea it would become such a culinary landmark for years to come.

For over 70 years, generations of locals have been regulars here, and brought their kids to share the experience.

They haven’t changed much over the years, and that’s just one of the reasons they’ve been a favorite for decades.

The counter-serve restaurant is just as casual as you would expect.

The walls are decorated with memories from the past, accolades, and family photos to add to the nostalgic, family-fun vibes at Judice Inn.

They keep their menu simple. You can expect a few sandwiches on the menu, but nearly everyone comes for the burgers.

Known for having the best burgers in town, these homemade burgers will quickly win you over.

The secret is their unique seasoning blend and their secret sauce.

Even after 72 years, they’ve stayed true to their own traditions, so don’t expect to find any fries on the menu.

Snag a bag of chips and a coke with your order and prepare to feast on one of the best burgers you’ve ever had.
