A Lafayette Favorite: Shane’s Calls It Quits
Owned by Shane Vallot, the trendy burger joint, Shane’s Famous Quesadilla Burgers, was established in 2023. Located at 3822 W. Congress St. in Lafayette, the restaurant became a popular casual dining destination known for its signature burgers.
The restaurant announced the closure in an Instagram post. In the post, the team said it was bringing its three-and-a-half-year run in Lafayette to a close.
“After an incredible journey, Friday, July 3, will be our final day serving the Acadiana community. To every customer, employee, friend, and family member who supported us along the way—thank you. Your love and support meant more than you’ll ever know.” said the team.
The team encouraged customers to visit before the restaurant’s final day of service. Following the announcement, several customers shared their disappointment on social media.

Story Behind the Concept
Shane’s Famous Quesadilla Burgers built its identity around an unconventional burger concept. The restaurant combined burgers and quesadillas into a single signature menu item. The restaurant gained popularity for serving juicy burger patties wrapped inside a crunchy and toasty quesadilla instead of regular buns.
The restaurant also included a full bar serving beer, wine, and other alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
In 2025, Shane’s Famous Quesadilla Burgers opened a second location in New Orleans.
The restaurant team did not specify any official reason for its sudden closure. As Shane’s Famous Quesadilla Burgers prepares for its final day of operation, it leaves behind lasting memories created in a short period of time.
