Ground Pati is simply the best place to get a hamburger in Lafayette. I've been in Lafayette for five years now and have taken my family there more times than we can count. The food itself is quite good with a menu that includes non-burger items. The inside of the restaurant has a very unique, almost tavern-like, feel to it that I simply love. The wait staff is normally young college kids, but they are always friendly, polite, and see to your immediate needs. Only two minor gripes. Sometimes the service is too fast. I've never had the feeling that they are trying to rush us out, but sometimes we've gotten our food too quickly. Granted, everything was fresh and did not seem that it had been sitting, but I like to take a little bit of time in a restaurant. The other minor gripe I have is that spacing is a bit tight - I think they would do well to eliminate a few tables and chairs in the restaurant. Overall, I love the Ground Pati and hope it is around for a very long time!

Been going here for many years. They have consistently good food. Their menu is limited, but everything they do has been great. My wife always gets the catfish made into a sandwich. Wow, that's good. I get the Ground Pati Sir. With cheese. Only knock is I wish they had Coke Zero.

This place is a lame duck. The entire benefit of grinding your beef in house is that you can cook it to any temp the customer so desires. I ordered medium - came burnt to a crisp. They have no fresh condiments, everything is served in little packets of ketchup or cheap mustard. The cheese is not even sliced, it's shredded. The burger is a money maker for the restaurant b/c of the low quality ingredients. If this was a $5-7 burger I might go back. This is a throw away burger - waste of $10, there's a McDonalds down the street.

Great. Good food. Good service. Nice place. Clean. Good atmosphere. Comfortable. May need to update interior though.

First time I've ever been here, surprisingly; I grew up in the area and lived here the better part of my life. Rustic is a positive word for the decor. Think The Regal Beagle from Three's Company. Massive ferns in each window, picture framed in stained glass diamond window patterns. Like a love child of a Golden Corral and a aged English pub & grub. I opted, as a first impression, to try their hamburger steak..seemingly their flagship entree. 8.50$ for so-say in house fresh ground beef burger steak, of which I've had more flavor and taste with one half that price at Wendy's further down Johnston St. Run of the mill steak fries, and a greasy, buttered hamburger bun cut into 8 (am I 6?) as....? A roll? Overall, extremely sub-par, and whilst not necessarily terrible, incredibly over priced. Friendly and punctual young waitress. This place has been open at least 20 some ought years. It's probably survived as long as I think it's the same motif as Judice Inn; a big local college ULL supporter, but equally as sub-par, running on the fumes of the nostalgia of alumni past and present. Pass...at least until it gets new management, or a Ramsay 'Kitchen Nightmare' visit. I see why I never came. Go Cajuns.

not great. the pati is ground very fine and mixed after the fact, it's also not hand formed making the texture snappy and forced. burger is under seasoned and tastes like whatever was on the grill before they cooked ur burger, (for me, that was fish). onion rings are frozen and the french fries, like everything else, aren't seasoned. prefer judice inn just down the road.

There is nothing like the original. Ground Pati is basically a tradition of mine. Its great before or after any UL sporting event. I've gotten the same thing for 20 something years now, ground pati jr with cheese, and cheese on the fries. YUM! Its a great place when you need something simple and quick.

This is one of my other favorite places to eat when I go back to Lafayette. It is the original Ground Pati and it is the best by far. As far as atmosphere goes I see that a lot of people don't like it but I think it has charm. We have been going here since I was a little kid and I love it and wouldn't change a thing about it. Honestly don't know what is all on the menu because I have always ordered the cheeseburger. Soo good with a cold beer!

Burgers and, surprisingly, the catfish are delicious. Friendly and honest service. Great place.

Worst burger I've had in a ling time at this joint... and its was not even juicy, tasted not frrsh, not even close to the temperature I ordered it. I don't get it... a place that advertises itself as a burger place but can't make a decent one?... what is up with that?

Ehhh.... Nothing to brag about here... Nothing special. Not bad, not great. Kills your hunger, and doesn't kill you... Unless you're allergic to peanuts... Then DON'T EAT THE PEANUTS!!!

Friendly staff, not too noisy, free peanuts, clean tables with comfortable chairs, fun decor, popular with local law enforcement, great burgers. Get the sr size medium rare if you have a guy's appetite. Place hands down is a great place!

The first impression you get when you walk into this joint is that you just tripped back to the early 1970s - and unfortunately it's not a very good trip. This place needs some serious updating. I tried this place twice. After the first experience, I probably would have given them a strong three. The burger was cooked properly and although it didn't 'wow' me, it was pretty decent. The service was ok, although our waitress didn't know exactly what kind of beer they had, which I thought was very odd. They also charge $4 or $4.50 for both imports and domestic, which is outrageous for a place like this. So a month or two later we decided to grab a quick burger on our way home and stopped for a second try. It was about an hour before closing and the place was dead. Our disinterested waitress sauntered over and took our order. Meanwhile, the cook was planted in a chair in front of the overhead TV watching a game, only to take a quick break to cook our food. The food arrived rather quickly and several bites later we realized why. Both burgers were completely raw in the middle. Not slightly pink - Play-Doh red! To add insult to injury, the onion rings, which we paid extra to have instead of fries, were absolutely inedible and completely drenched with grease as if they were cooked in oil that was 100 degrees too cool. The waitress didn't return to our table for 15 minutes. When she finally came back, it was just to drop the check off. I stopped her and politely asked if the burgers are always served rare. She said no and took one look at them, shook her head in disgust and went back to the cook who was back watching the game in front of the TV. She came back to our table and apologized and said that she'll adjust the bill. When we got the check back the 'adjustment' was getting one burger for free, even though both of us barely touched all our food. Lesson learned - avoid the Ground Pati on Johnston. It needs to go away like reruns of the Partridge Family.

We like this place cause it has memories for us, and we've always like the burgers. However this night our patties were over done. And our waitress "Emily" seriously wearing trash bag shorts! We sure enjoyed the warmth of the fire though. It will be awhile but I'm sure we will return.

A great hamburger. Not the nicest of surroundings, but what do you want it's a burger joint! It's a large space though.
