What a great place! This was a definite surprise. Traveling across country and choosing a place only by the menu and reviews is not always easy. The Catfish Po'Boy was delicious as was the 'cup' of gumbo. The spice level on the gumbo was spot on - a little spicy for my friend but not inedible for her and just enough for me to appreciate the flavor. The sandwich was great. The bread soft and the catfish cooked to perfection - crispy but not overcooked. Sadly, I left two bites of my sandwich and no room for dessert. You won't go away hungry. The service was great. Very knowledgeable about the menu and willing to share their favorite dishes and why. I ordered one of the flavored iced teas which was delicious but way to sweet for me. She recommended adding plain Iced Tea to cut it. She took care of it and it was perfect. Several staff checked in with us during our meal. This is not a quiet intimate place. It's small but relaxed with high energy. The decor is highly entertaining as well. Get there early if you go for dinner. We got there around 6 and only had 2 people ahead of us in line. As we were eating, the place filled up (decent amount of seating) and people were waiting outside. Although it 's not a quiet place I definitely recommend eating inside. Kinda like a crowded cafeteria with separate tables and so many great things on display to look at while you're waiting.

The food here is FANTASTIC!! Anything we have tried is beyond good, you can't go wrong with any of their deserts either. When you walk in you order at the counter then the servers bring the food to your table, piping hot!! It's a nice little sandwich shop. They serve; Po Boys, Cajun dishes, Southern Deliciousness, Poutine Fries, Gumbo, and Deserts and much more. It's definitely a must try when you're in Lawrence Kansas.

My boyfriend and I came on a Tuesday during dinner, and were greeted with a charming smile from employee Raejann, who walked us through the menu and gave us food AND drink recommendations. Our food was out quickly and with stunning service from Raejann, Zoe, and David. We got the andouille sausage (I also got the Cajun deviled egg - perfect amount of spice) and catfish po’boys and the Cajun fries, and their ranch is damn near perfect (we’re ranch snobs!). It was my first time there and my boyfriend’s first time in many years, so he was so happy to see their new space and the growth of the business. I can’t wait to come back to LFK to try more!! Keep up the good work, y’all!

We are in town for the 150th Annual Prince Hall Grand Lodge Kansas Jurisdiction and the 141st Annual Prince Hall Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Stars. We were looking for somewhere different to eat. He ordered the Shrimp Po'Boy and I ordered the Jambalaya with hush puppies. The food was very good. The staff was very cute and welcoming.

Employees are the absolute best! Super friendly and extremely personable every time! Food is just as great, well portioned, and super generously priced for the quality. some of my favorites, are the catfish Poboy, hush puppies, and Cajun fries. But I have tried majority of what they have and EVERYTHING IS AMAZING. They also have different and often new specials every week, I love trying these as no matter what they are, they are delicious.

I had heard nothing but good things about Terrebonne from friends so I finally tried it for myself. HOLY COW, DELICIOUS. Very affordable, nice little patio area, and super friendly staff. I ordered the fried chicken po’boy and poutine fries. Everything was so tasty!! Can’t wait to go back!!

My entire experience was phenomenal. All the staff were extremely friendly, the restaurant has a very LGBTQ friendly atmosphere, and every other customer in there looked like they were destroying their food mercilessly. Cajun and soul food is a personal favorite of mine, and Terrebonne Po' Boys knocked it out of the park. Now for the order: I got a grilled shrimp Po' boy and a hot tea with water. My partner got just a side of gumbo and rice, as they'd eaten earlier in the day. The shrimp on my sandwich was cooked to perfection. Tender, juicy, well seasoned, and aromatic. The tomatoes and lettuce were fresh and crisp, contrasting nicely with the hot shrimp. The sauce was well balanced and didn't overpower the sandwich, but complimented it perfectly. My partner stuffed the gumbo in their face until they physically couldn't anymore, and that's about all the review I got huge thumbs up. Overall, 11/10 place to get food for any sort of cajun craving. We will be back for sure.

This place was so funky and fun. Coolest people work here. Delicious red beans and rice for me (with andouille sausage) Cajun Cuban for hubby and shrimp and grits for our girl. Would recommend. So good.
