"Judice Inn is Lafayette's best-known spot for the perfect classic burger. Sometimes, simple is all you're after. That is, if you don't mind forgoing the fries with your burger. After more than 60 years of business in the same building, the folks at Judice Inn still proudly serve chips over french fries."

"The Best Burgers From Each of the 50 States: Judice Inn, Lafayette - The straightforward, thin-patty double cheeseburger—served on a white squishy bun and wrapped in waxed paper—has a local kick. The Judice grinds beef every morning and uses a proprietary Cajun seasoning on their burgers. Ask for grilled onions to take this already flavor-packed burger to the next level."

The Wannabe Chef

"A successful burger joint that refuses to sell french fries? A well-made burger cooked properly, this burger can stand on its own, with the Judice Inn special sauce on it, loyal customers return again and again. Lovingly wrapped in butcher paper and served with a single slice of onion, it is a burger that shows you how delicious simplicity can truly be."

"Where to Find a Good Cheap Burger In Every State: Judice Inn, Louisiana - The Judice Inn is a local institution that has been around since 1947, when the owners built the original building themselves with the help of friends and family. Hamburgers have the distinction of a "secret sauce" made daily on the premises."

"They never had french fries, and they do not sell french fries now. If you didn’t grow up eating regularly at Judice Inn, there’s a great chance that you just won’t get it. On the table, you’ll find Tabasco sauce, but no ketchup. The burgers are distinctive and tasty, but a trip to Judice Inn is also like an anthropology exercise to watch people reminiscing without even needing to speak."

"A Judice burger with cheese comes as a patty griddled dark-brown with a light dusting of spices and a crown of gooey American cheese, plus shredded lettuce and light smears of mustard, mayo, and secret Judice Sauce. For us, the cruelest thing you can do to a great hamburger is to drown it in sauce, especially if the sauce comes from a squeeze bottle. But Judice Inn does an excellent job of using condiments as enhancements rather than meat-smothering diversions."

"Once you take a bite, you’ll understand why this humble restaurant has been considered the best burger joint for over 70 years. The secret is the unique seasoning mix and "secret sauce," which really gives it an extra special touch. Next time you find yourself in Cajun Country, be sure to find the time to pop on over and enjoy one of the best burgers you’ll ever taste."
