What a hidden gem in the city of Lafayette! Priya and her team put together a wonderful meal in a wonderful atmosphere and EVERY SINGLE THING we ate was delightful and full of flavor! Lavender lemonade and coconut lemonade are made in house and so are the samosas! Please do yourself a favor and visit Priya's! You won't be disappointed. Chef's kiss!

OMG!!! First of all, this was my first time trying this restaurant out. When it comes to my food, I am very skeptical. But, the young lady taking the orders was very sweet and friendly and helped me with the menu. I got to meet the owner, and she was the most friendliest beautiful person who interacted with every person sitting in there. I was like to myself, wow, she's really nice. The food was way above my expectations. The BEST Indian food I have ever tasted in my life. No lie. This food is literally all that and then some. I had to come and put a review because I want others to experience what I experienced. Thank you for such a great experience and I will be seeing y'all again very soon

Priya’s Indian Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ is a hidden gem! Felt very authentic & genuine. Absolutely delicious from the rice, appetizers, and chicken to the bold sauces and spices. I loved how delicious they were, and they delivered! The soup was flavorful, the multiple different drinks were refreshing, and the staff was super friendly / spot on. It wasn’t a planned stop, but I’m so glad I found it and will now come back again. Highly recommend!

First time for me in an Indian restaurant. I had the Curry shrimp and it was awesome. I never had Curry, now I'm a fan! The Lentil soup was like no other I've had before... awesome also. The coleslaw was so good, no mayo here. Not sure but I think it's a chili sauce, ( it's a clear sause) best coleslaw I've ever had. The atmosphere is authentic, the owners were so friendly and made you feel at home. Definitely would recommend trying Priya's Indian Food.

We just tried Priya’s today for the first time, this was also my first time trying Indian food and all I can say is…OH MY GOODNESS!! The food was like an explosion of delicious flavors in my mouth! We tried the chicken samosas, tikka masala, butter chicken, garlic naan & butter naan plus a hibiscus lemonade (so good) and had plenty of leftovers for dinner! It’s safe to say we will definitely be back, they were so kind and I loved the eclectic yet cozy atmosphere. Make sure if you want to try yummy, authentic Indian food to stop by Priya’s and SUPPORT LOCAL!!

Priya’s was a pleasant surprise! I was excited to show my dad authentic South Indian food and this place was legit. They can make almost anything gluten free. The owner and her husband were the sweetest and we will definitely be coming back for more!

I encourage everyone to stop by their booth on Saturdays to get their samosas. When we finally had a chance to go by their restaurant. Everything about this meal was great. They completely took care of us. The food itself was great. The portions leave you needing a togo box. Along with being some of the better priced Indian food, knowing how much time and effort goes into the cuisine. This is definitely worth a trip and I look forward to our next meal there.
