Jason’s Deli

Love this small restaurant for a quick bite to eat. The food is delicious and the salad bar is very nice as well. My favorite soup there is the vegetarian vegetable — it is a good medley of different vegetables.

I had the veg. Spinach wrap and steamed veggies. Perfect! My husband had the Spicy Seafood Gumbo and salmon sandwich. This location was clean and had fast service.

Hmm Jason’s Deli… a different take on what I know to be a deli, having been raised in one in NY. The guys who started this joint, which now has about 100 locations are from Beaumont, TX. To their credit, they’ve managed to deliver consistent quality from location to location, whether you’re eating at one in Dallas, Houston, Boca Raton or Lafayette, LA… and I’ve eaten at Jason’s in all or these cities… and then some.
Jason’s does a lot of things well. Their salad bar is very good, has a bunch of fresh and unique items on it, and is worth the $ 7.50 or so that they get for it. Some of the soups are quite good as well. The chicken chili soup and french onion are delicious and reasonably priced.
Where Jason’s falters is in the sandwich area. Their corned beef and pastrami does not measure up. The meat. and the bread are all lackluster, and do not do justice to this superior Jewish specialty.
I give Jason’s a sold three stars. 3.5 if Unilocal had ½ stars.

Inconsistent, but generally satisfactory.
Sometimes they get the orders a little off, but the employees seem to be good natured for the most part — so I try not to give them a hard time.
Today my baked potato was missing chives, not the end of the world. Another time, they put chicken on a salad that was for a vegeterian… We specifically said «No chicken». Had to have it replaced. Two nights ago we asked for take out but the food was served for dine in. We said nothing, just ate it.
Nothing huge, just inconsistent service. Young people who often pay too little attention, etc.
Food is alright though, and none of the issues bother me enough to deter me from eating there.
A plus, is that the greens and whatnot seem to be consistently fresh. That is a big plus for me.

Nice atmosphere with nice people. and free ice cream! We had the following:
— Beefeater — ½ pound of hot roast beef, provolone, mayo on New Orleans French bread with a cup of au jus. This is okay, somewhat too dry and a little too salty for my liking
— Sergeant Pepper — ½ pound of hot roast beef, sautéed onions and bell peppers, provolone, mayo on New Orleans French bread with a cup of au jus. This is a little better, the veggies give it a better flavor profile, but not overall great.
Honestly, even if its not that bad, I probably would not come here again, even if they have free ice cream.

Yes I will go again, for the salad bar and tortilla soup, baked potatoes — wish that they would give a better description of some of the sauces. If you get one that you are not aware of, it will ruin your sandwich. i think they should offer the sandwich with pick your dressing… other than that the salad bar is always clean and fresh, lot of organic. I visit once a week.

Ok so in my opinion 10 per person for a salad bar is a bit high. I think maybe 6 – 7.5 range would be more appropriate. however if your craving a salad and your Leary about buffet’s (as I am) this place really is good. They keep a clean, fresh, well stocked salad bar. I have never had a bad salad so far. Loaded potato soup isn’t bad either.

Overall, probably not somewhere I’d go out of my way for, but then again I was feeling pretty terrible when I ate here (thus my judgment is perhaps unreliable). Not much to report because I remember very little other than sitting outside hacking up a lung (when will I stop being sick?!) and dropping a glass bottle of tea when we left. Which, needless to say, was awesome. As was cleaning up broken glass.
Whining aside, here are some arguably useful details. This place is a chain. I know there’s at least one in Lafayette and one in Baton Rouge, and I suspect there are additional locations. The hummus is gross. Don’t order it. The French Onion soup, however, is absolutely delicious. Seriously, I think, the best I’ve ever had. Once again, I was deathly ill and badly in need of soup at the time, which may have impacted my ability to make rational judgments. That said, the soup was awesome, and if I have a chance I’ll try it again just to see if it really was as good as it seemed.

Delicious gluten free bread!

It’s great for a quick, casual dinner with the family. I like that we can get a variety of different foods, as well as a great salad bar. With some common sense, it is pretty easy to grab a healthy meal there. The complimentary ice cream makes it a favorite for the kids. It is a little pricey, but the quality of the food makes up for it. I don’t know of many restaurants in the area that place so much emphasis on organic, fresh food.

Cafeteria style deli specializing in sandwiches along with other hot entrée’s. Quite popular for incredibly over-​priced. If you’re going to have over priced food in Acadiana, the food better be worth it because, well, THIS is Acadiana, home of some of the very best food in the world. Unfortunately, Jason’s Deli just doesn’t match up. Good for a quick lunch but nothing to write in your diary over.

Best muffaletta outside of New Orleans, and cheap!
