    FGT and world champion gumbo in Louisiana
    Daryl O.

    I got the fried green tomatoes and a cup of gumbo for appetizers and they were fantastic. Then I ordered the stuffed shrimp poboy and it was phenomenal. The waitress was very attentive. 10 out of 10!

    Crawfish

    Was craving some crawfish and googled places near by. I am in Richmond, so this place was only 12 minutes away. I love a good ducked off place that's not too fancy for some crawfish. And this place did not disappoint. The margarita was delicious and kinda strong to be frozen. :) The swamp fries were so good. The sauce on top was amazing! And the crawfish! So good! They only come one way, and that way is perfect. I don't do spicy so it was the perfect amount of seasoning and spice. We wanted to take some home for the kid but they had sold out. So get there early! We ended up taking some Boudin balls and some fish and shrimp home to the rest of family and that was good and fried well. Will definitely come back here!

    Every item was delicious! Yes....its as good as it looks! Highly recommend their Swamp balls, crawfish, Catfish Maria & Jambalaya! Staff is friendly & treats you like family. Louisiana country atmosphere! We love this place!

    I finally made my way to Needville to check out what I've been hearing about for a while now. It's been a long time coming and I waited too long...but it was worth the wait! This place was recommended to me from some coworkers who happen to be Cajun from Louisiana. I had high expectations and let me tell you now, Bayou Boys met every one of them. First the ambiance. I'm from a small town in west Texas and this place reminds me of the small cozy diners I used to frequent as a kid, where the service was great and the food was even better. When I walked in though, I knew I wasn't in Texas anymore Toto. I was in Lafourche Parish. Not transported by a tornado but by the aroma of some tres bien boudin, poboys and gumbo! The service was excellent. Hannah was very customer oriented and made the whole experience very enjoyable. She answered questions, gave recommendations and knew the menu very well. The food....come on now...the food? C'est bon!!! Let's start off with the fried green tomatoes. Thanks to my mom growing up and a healthy dose of Kathy Bates movies, I grew up eating fried green tomatoes. These were so good. Fried and crispy on the outside but tender and oh so juicy on the inside. Dipped in that blue cheese or ranch, it was going down! If I drove all this way, I'm going to eat! So next up. The Butt Burner Boudin was fire! If you didn't know boudin means delicious and this was some delicious boudin. I back doored the boudin with a boudin ball that was equally delicious. I'm sure somewhere there is a debate about boudin links vs boudin balls and it was hard to decide in this case but I'll leave the ball in your court to decide. The chicken and sausage gumbo was incredible. That dark, chocolate brown roux had a deep, rich flavor. The chicken and sausage was full of flavor and the rice soaked up all that good flavor. Was I done? Oh no bebe! I still had to try them famous poboys! One catfish and one shrimp. The French bread was incredibly soft but with a very light crispy crust. The catfish and shrimp both were amazing. These poboys were stuffed! Lettuce, pickles and tomatoes packed in and overflowing! I put that tartar sauce on the catfish and that poboy was something serious! I thought I was done but I let them talk me into trying that Tarte au la Bouillie. Let's be honest. It didn't take much convincing. I was ready. The translation is burnt milk tart but all I tasted was delight! It's something between a custard and a cheesecake but not like either. It's just good, ya heard! The owner Joel made several stops by the table and talked about the food a bit. I appreciate when the owner or chef stops by and connects with the customer. It shows the passion for great customer service and incredible cuisine. Y'all it took me way too long to make it to Bayou Boys in Needville, TX. Don't be like me...be ready to eat some authentic Cajun cuisine and jump in your car and drive to Needville asap! You won't be disappointed!!!

    Stuffed shrimp with crawfish etoufee poboy
    A M.

    Food and portions were real good. You can tell these are Louisiana crawfish. The prices were pretty good. The waitress was attentive

    Catfish Maria
    Robert G.

    Bayou Boys is hard to beat for good homemade food with a Louisiana flair. Sometimes they have all you can eat gumbo for $9.99. You can't beat that. I like to get the Catfish Maria and have the fish fried instead of grilled. They'll blacken it too if you prefer. Great staff, they always treat you like family at Bayou Boys!

    Their menu is available through the QR code.  Crawfish was perfect, their Shrimp PoBoy were delicious.
    James G.

    Amazing flavor straight out the bayou but right in your backyard. A jewel in the small town of Needville.

    Pistolets
    Daniel M.

    Talk about ordering too much food! The pistolletts we're not bad. The swamp thing poppers with boudin was good! Then I ordered a cup of etoufee, sausage and chicken gumbo and the red beans and rice filled me up. I ordered a seafood platter. Thank goodness it was small!

    Catfish Maria

    There's nothing like coming to a restaurant and leaving with a full stomach and happy taste buds! And I tell Bayou Boys did exactly that! As a Cajun born and raised in South Louisiana I can say this is some authentic Cajun cuisine and tastes just like home! Everything we had was delicious, the boudin balls were among the best I've had, fried green tomatoes were THE best I've had. Their frying batter is on point! Shrimp & Catfish were nice and fresh! Which seems hard to find around here. Service was great as well! Definitely recommend this place. Ca c'est bon cher!!

    Fried shrimp & salad

    Was driving back to Houston & was in the area. This had the best reviews, so I stopped in. I was immediately greeted & the service was very attentive. It's a pay at the counter place, very casual & small town friendly. I had fried shrimp and a cup of red beans & rice. The RB&R had a clear roux, which is not my favorite style, but it was really good. Shrimp were decent, but not amazing. French fries were good. I'm not a fan of Po'boys, but I'd bet they make a really good one. I'd stop there again before trying someplace else in the area.

The server was absolutely attentive and very quick with my coffee, which I truly appreciated. I had two teenagers with me and they served us chips and salsa- even though it was 8 AM! Gotta love tex-mex! I ordered the chorizo and egg plate and the boys got huevos rancheros and the breakfast special which contain pancakes. We had all the butter, syrup and condiments in place on the table so no need to bug the waiter. Coffee refills were quick! Also ask for their fresh cantaloupe and watermelon juices- super refreshing and addictive! My only complaint is the green sauce is horrible and that's pretty hard to mess up in Texas. Red sauce is on point! Stop by- lots of space and tables to enjoy a meal and plenty of staff. Breakfast definitely delivers here!

Arrived around 12:15 for lunch and ordered tea and a enchiladas. The chips and salt infused hot sauce was barely edible, but could easily be improved to something really good. It seemed they added extra salt to a good hot sauce to keep people from eating so many chips, which I am usually guilty of. Tea came in two sizes with free refills. Hmmm. Straws are too short for the large, I recommend you get the medium size drink just because of that. For Enchiladas Sueze (MSP?) - #34 I think - I got chicken. Sauce was good and everything except the chicken was good. Should have been shredded chicken, but was dried out chicken fajita meat as well. It comes with three enchilada s, but Los Charros has decided to use small corn tortillas for the enchiladas instead of ones you would normally get at the store... So really you get two compared to every other TexMex place. Pico de Gallo was good, and comes with what looks like a smear of avocado on the bottom. May be it wasn't supposed to be part of the meal, or shrinkflation hit again and a half teaspoon fulfills their obligation. Server was attentive and kept my tea glass full. Thank you, you got that extra star for the restaurant. Overall, if you are just looking for a place to stop for lunch as you travel by Needville, try some place else.

Well last night we were having our Christmas celebration at the church and decided to have dinner on our way home! We are so very glad we did! We stop and went in and they have inside tables for eating right there! Along with pickup orders! We went to the counter snd and a nice young lady welcome us to Simple Simon's! We placed our order of a medium Buffalo chicken plus bacon pizza with a 10 piece order of Buffalo wings and 2 drinks! We paid and went and sat down! I went to get our drinks from the soda fountain, Zero Pepsi was our choice! Couldn't get the fountain to work! One of the employees came and tried and then went and check the tank! It was full, after trying it again it started to work! Steve the owner came in and brought our pizza out! We told him it was our first time here! We asked for our names and told us he would go get our wings! My wife and I tried the first piece of pizza and OMG! It was amazing, great crust done to perfection with nice golden brown crust both bottom and top! Cheese and buffalo chicken with bacon that was the perfect ratio! Next the bone in Buffalo wings were hot and just right on the Sweet Baby Ray Buffalo wing sauce! Steve came back by and ask how we like everything so far! We said it was all great! My wife who is Italian said she also saw they had Calzones. He said yes and would bring us a sample to see if she would rate it! We were enjoying everything we had ordered when Steve brought us a sample of the most popular Original Calzone! My wife and I took a bite and yes OMG! My wife said it was very good! We where just about finished when Steve came with a sample of their desert special Apple Cinnamon Pizza for us to try too! Well this just rounded the meal off! Absolutely fantastic meal from start to finish! With leftovers to enjoy the next day! So if you're heading down Hwy 36 South and are passing thru Needville, Texas! Stop by for a lunch or take home some dinner and checkout all the other iTunes they have! We loved it and will definitely be going back again!
