    Chips and bean dip was complimentary.
    Mike M.

    While I enjoy visiting any BB's , I attended this restaurant twice recently. Located just off of Hwy 249, it's easy to get to and has plenty of parking spaces. They have a large outdoor and covered dining area along with the interior dining area that also has a full bar. I ordered Bedtime in the Bayou which is their fried shrimp po boy that comes with fries for $15. The waitress brought us a complimentary appetizer of chips and bean dip that was very good tasting and something not on the menu. My po boy was also delicious on tasty bread with fried shrimp and was dressed with lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayo. The fries were good too and I would order this meal again (4). Another trip was to try their Maw Maw's gumbo with chicken and sausage. A bowl of it is $15 and it comes with some bread and crackers. This too was a very good tasting meal. The roux was rich in flavor and there was plenty of chicken, sausage and rice in the bowl. Again another enjoyable meal (4). In both visits the table service was prompt and friendly. Good Cajun food and a nice atmosphere are some of the reasons why I will be returning to this BB's!

    My absolute complements to the chef....the seasonings were perfect-no "dead" recooked crawfish! I wanted to call the chef out and give him a standing ovation-but I ate too much! Our waitress was wonderful- I think her name was Kat, such a sweetie! Want to give her a shout out! She even took care of our pooch with a bowl of water! We will be back' Lately places have forgotten haw to cook crawfish with seasonings and flavor! Impeccable!

    First time here and our server was Akieyra. I followed her recommendation for the boil flavors and WOW! I loved it absolutely delicious. The spicy and sweet was an amazing combination. I could not get enough of the corn. Very rich in flavors. Would come back again.

    Went to this place for the first time and I liked it. We went to water creature wednesdays and got he soft crab. Very impressive, kinda wanted more seasoning but it still hit. Had the oyster, and that was probably the only thing that was mid. The service was awesome and very friendly. Erin and Jerrica helped us with everything we needed and made the experience even better. I want to go back for more soft shell crab. Lol.... They have a dip and chips that is fiiiire. The bean dip, is crazy good. I shouldve got a bowl to go.

    The shrimp and grits were outstanding. Loved the ingredients mixed in with the shrimp and grits which gave it amazing flavor. They have Crystal as well as Tabasco which really kicked the meal up a notch. We received our saladr and dinner almost at exactly the same time so it was a bit overwhelming and would have preferred to have had the items spread out a little more rather than everything at once and waiting for everything to arrive at one time. Our wait staff were very friendly and nice. super personable and could speak both Spanish and English. The atmosphere is a blend of Texas and New Orleans just like the name but it does lean on New Orleans Louisiana for atmosphere. There are regional drinks found in Louisiana that can also be found here. My spouse found that her Margarita was a little too sweet but not a real big problem. Prices were just a little high and portions were just a little small. See Photos.

    We got seated a little before 5pm on Easter. We looked around and didn't see any of the complimentary chips until 20 to 40 minutes after sitting down. The table near us (arrived around the same time) received two and another table that got seated after we received the our food received one. Every time we asked for a status update, the staff said they didn't see any. After a while, someone came by to explain how they've run out of chips. They were running a $35 for 5 lbs. of crawfish promotion, and it came out at 5:30pm. I ordered the super greens salad with the sauce on the side, which had to be remade because the waitress saw the sauce had been added. We asked for the salad order to be canceled, and the waitress said it depends on if they've made it already. A waiter came by to drop the salad off at 5:51pm. It did taste good and didn't have any wilted pieces. The salt from the blue cheese, sweetness from the minced candied pecans, and tartness of the dressing and sliced grape tomatoes melded well with the curly greens. There seems to be a bit of disconnect between what the kitchen has ready and when staff should come by to pick food up. Th crawfish were mostly medium sized with a few larger ones. The Bayou flavor feels powdery on the hands and light on the tongue. The rice is 50 cents a cup and was kind of hard, which was kind of understandable as it's usually for soaking in gumbo. One of the metal parts of the outdoor patio chairs was kind of sticking out, so it snagged on my pants. Sitting in the patio was kind of chilly. It was busy but only 2-3 small groups were waiting at a time. We had to retrieve a roll of napkins for our table when food finally arrived. When we asked for a fork, it arrived quickly in its paper bag. Upon opening it, it had caked on stringy remnants. The staff were friendly when you had their attention yet were inattentive while away from the table and only seemed to pay attention to their tables.

Time to Appetizers: 20 Minutes Time to Crawfish: 25 Minutes It's a solid branch from the main location in Bellaire, but they're missing some things. For example, the Bellaire location has the new Viet-Cajun flavor of sauce that hasn't debuted here yet (though you can DIY a mix). (Review is for July 2026 if they've updated since then) We got here at 6:05PM and got seated with no issues. Ordered the following: Combo #1 with extra corn and potatoes (3.5/5): Crawfish isn't in season, so don't be surprised at my low rating. It's still great and flavorful all around. Garlic Noodles with Shrimp (4/5): Still incredibly rich and buttery and garlicy and great for a palate cleanser. I'd skip the shrimp; you get eight pieces for $10 extra and that's not really worth it. Crawfish Beignets (4.5/5): Still a fantastic appetizer. Comes out hot, crispy, buttery, and is a really indulgence. 1 lb. Little Neck Clams (4.5/5): I liked these more than the crawfish tbh. It really does depend on what's in season. Very easy to eat, very flavorful. Service was generally good but our server seemed slammed; it took a long time to get water refills and to place extra orders (we got a second order of beignets to-go). Market price for crawfish is high and they're not in season, so don't be afraid to ask. The Combo #1 in July 2026 was $22. Overall, I'll probably be back during crawfish season especially because it's more convenient for me than the Bellaire location, but the Bellaire location has it beat for general atmosphere after the remodeling and much better options for mixes there.

Inside it's a nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it. I ordered a house salad for $9 to start and the Pasta Rosa entree for another $28. The salad arrived first with a generous amount of romaine lettuce with diced tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots and chopped eggs on top. With my chosen ranch dressing it was a good tasting salad. The Pasta Rosa dish had sliced Parmesan strips on top of penne with shrimp, crawfish and sausage for the protein with mushrooms and a tomato cream sauce. This meal initially tricked me. My first impression was that while there was plenty of protein the taste of the tomato cream sauce was lacking some flavor. I expected more. However as I kept eating and getting beyond the top layer of the food the flavor increased significantly. I think that the proteins caused the sauce in the lower half of the dish to create more punch. This dish got better and better and I changed my mind. It turned out to be a very good tasting and filling meal. Finally the table service was very good too. P.S. I also tried part of another appetizer which was the bar b q shrimp for $16.
