We went for a later lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We made a reservation before heading that way but we didn’t really need one. The service was friendly and efficient. The food and drinks were outstanding. It is a little pricey but you definitely get your money’s worth. This is a great place to bring a date or a nice place to bring family and friends. Would definitely recommend and will definitely return.

Our experience was really great. Megan, our server, was knowledgeable, attentive and personable. The smoked fried chicken was delicious and so unique. The Ora king salmon was such a great since it’s hard to find. And it was cooked perfectly. And the yardbird roasted chicken was outstanding. We also loved their extensive bourbon list and craft cocktails. We plan to stop again next week on our way back k through Louisiana.

*Their signature Barrel-Aged Old Fashioned was very good, but would could have been served over a large ice cube. *We had the Black Eyed Pea Hummus appetizer , Smoked Fried Chicken, and Chili Rubbed Salmon - All were DELICIOUS! Can’t wait to come back and try the Ribeye and Crawfish Pasta. *Service was prompt, professional, and friendly. Our waitstaff was very knowledgeable about the menu and the food preparation. *The only negative was that it was very loud. Could have been the time of the day, 6:30 pm reservation. *We will definitely come back and would highly recommend this restaurant!

Tried something different tonight, I got the crawfish mushroom pasta…. I regretted it 😐 it was so bland and plain almost gross. My husband got the pork belly special, wasn’t that great. The fried green tomatoes were awesome and the French fries were awesome. We won’t ever get those 1st choices again! Service was top notch.

We drove in from Baton Rouge to eat brunch here for Father’s Day and it was so worth the drive. I meannnnnnn…. Smoked fried chicken?!? And the most delicious Mac and cheese. Walk of shame was delicious. They have a special mimosa that uses juice they make in house. They make a lot of things in house and it shows. We will be back!

A gem of a place full of restaurants & good food. I’ve never had a bad experience at Social from the Hostesses to food and service - always top notch. This was the first time we’ve been for brunch & they didn’t disappoint - service and food was fabulous as usual. Love their twist on the mimosa too!

We had an amazing time at Southern Social Table. Trevor the manager was so friendly and hospitable and made our dining experience wonderful. We don't live in Lafayette anymore but when we come to visit my parents we get to drop off our kids and have a nice date night. Its always much needed and Social is our go to spot when we are in Laffy. Thanks so much!!
