Dodson Roadside Cafe & Creamery - Operated by Louisiana Adult & Teen Challenge

I can't say enough good things about this place! For starters, the food is ALWAYS amazing! The restaurant is clean, charming in a small town rustic sort of way, and definitely family friendly. They serve typical short-order style food: burgers and fries (OMG love their curly fries!), wings, fried catfish, and the like. They used to have all-you-can-eat wings on Thursday nights and all-you-can-eat catfish on Friday nights. So I have sampled the goods to excess on more than a few occasions. Dodson is 45 minutes from us but we will gladly drive down there to eat here. The Goliath burger is a good draw for those who like a challenge (2 lb burger) and if you're a family and want an all-in-one meal, they have a different price for families ordering this behemoth that's really not bad. We fed our family of four for right at $20 if I recall correctly. Their handmade milk shakes are incredible as well. And if all of that weren't enough already, you'll be supporting the local Teen Challenge by eating here as the Cafe is fully staffed and operated by Teen Challenge students. Can't wait to get back down there for them curly fried. Aaaah...
