Went there for dinner while in town on a bus tour. Food was excellent, staff was friendly, polite, and quick. I had the grilled catfish, stuffed potato, corn mac-choux, and the bread pudding with praline sauce for dessert. All were good - the stuffed potato and bread pudding were standouts- absolutely delicious.

Food was delicious but a bit salty and the service was fantastic! The interior is a little dim but overall, a great experience!

I always get the crab au gratin and I love it! Also, the stuffed (or twice baked) potatoes are wonderful. This time my husband had a New York strip and he loved it. Mitch was our server and he did a fabulous job taking care of us!! I highly recommend : )

Went for a late lunch. Waitress was awesome. Had the hamburger steak with fries and twice baked potatoes, sitting at the bar. Food was excellent. Gravy for the hamburger steak was thick and great tasting. It was a great experience. Thanks! Marty

We love Boutin's. The food is always delicious and the service is great! We dined there this evening, and our waiter, Mitch, was excellent and very attentive. He was comical and very much on top of things. Our drinks and food were served very quickly and always with a smile. Mitch made us feel right at home. He is definitely an asset to this establishment. We sure had a great evening with old friends, and a new one. Thanks, Mitch!!!

Just enjoyed crab augratin (my favorite) for the 3rd weekend in a row here. Also some excellent steak bites. The food is always great and our waiter Mitch was top notch. Will keep coming back.
