    Catfish Basket
    Shannon T.

    This place is such a hidden gem in Pearland!! We were driving around and saw this place and decided to come in and try it and it did not disappoint! We got the catfish basket, cray cray fries, dragon bowl, and lil miss piggy bao. The flavors are soooooo good. The dragon bowl has the tastiest, crispiest brussel sprouts! The crawfish sauce on the catfish and the cray cray fries was soooo tasty, like an elevated alfredo pasta. The shrimp were also super crispy and seasoned sooo well. The catfish was fried so well and the sauce on top was so tasty. This bowl is definitely something I'm coming back for!! The pork belly in the bao was a little tough and not my favorite but everything else we had was 10/10!! We are so excited to try the rest of the menu and will definitely be back!

    Beef Bulgogi Bowl
    Kelly M.

    Absolutely incredible. The restaurant is a trendy casual counter service and the owner and staff are absolutely amazing. The food was out of this world. The dishes are fun, unique, and delicious. We were just running in to get something to go and ended up eating in and I'm so glad we did. Can't wait to go back!

    Boiling Dragon: Location: Located in the Pearland Shopping Center near First Watch, the Boiling Dragon is nestled in this busy shopping center. Food: I ordered the Dragon Bowl, which came with Brussel Sprouts. These Brussel Sprouts can stand on their own they are so delicious! Service: The staff is super friendly and they help recommend great suggestions. Ambiance: This is a standard seafood restaurant with an Asian Flare. I will definitely be back! This food is yummy!

    I don't usually give 5 stars but I'm very picky about my gumbo and the Seafood gumbo with ramen special was fantastic a little pricey compared to regular menu items but worth it. The place is simple cafe but food on menu looks great. I will be back Update - Went back and they were out of gumbo so got the shrimp basket and pickled cucumbers and it was all good. Then went back again and tried their regular gumbo with shrimp and crab added. It's not quite as good as the ramon gumbo but still pretty good.

    We came here looking for SEASONED crawfish and we were not disappointed. 9lbs of crawfish with sausage and corn. The spice and heat was on point, the service was excellent, and my niece didn't speak for at least 30min because she was chowing down on the crawfish. That means it was amazing! I also brought the shrimp basket and beef bulgogi bowl home for family. The shrimp were huge with a delicious cornmeal coating. My brother said everything was wonderful. We will definitely be back.

    Dragon Fried Rice
    Yasmin S.

    Omg!! I was skeptical to order just fried rice, but I'm so glad that I did. I arrived about an hour to closing, so it was pretty empty inside. There was no line, and the cashier was friendly. I ordered the dragon fried rice, and it was bomb! Packed with flavor, full of blue crab, and so filling. This is definitely a meal for two people. I would come back here just for for the rice. Next visit, I'll try some of the other menu items. Price: About $18 and some change after taxes

    Yum!! Found this spot while looking to eat something different and close to where I was arriving by!! And don't regret it!!! Customers service is good, the place has a chill ambiance! Let me start talking about the food!! OMG I ordered a Rita daiquiri, let's not miss the drinks lol Bao little miss piggy, pork belly and the shrimp and I loved them! The flavor was on point and just the right portion. The texture of the bread/tortilla lol if that's what it's called was so fluffy and doughy it made the experience great!!!! The shrimp was sweet and savory!! I would have loved the pork belly to be crunchy but it was still delicious! The saigon shrimp with the rice is just amazing!! The tasty crispy shrimp with the sweet buttery rice and the cucumber salad is just to drool for!!! And the last item we ordered was as the fried rice with shrimp!! Can't go wrong with fried rice and the way they cook it!!!??? It's just savory and tasty!! Buttery and delicious Will be trying everything everytime I come because this is a new spot for me!!! And my family loved it too!! They love when I pick spots

    Food came out sure Fresh and hot. Gumbo was really good. Chicken wings came out crispy. Beef bowl was really yummy.

    Asian style Salt & pepper wings !  Sorry Was in a rush to eat...pic is blurry
    Ha C.

    We are exploring their menu during non crawfish season. Asian style salt & pepper wings is chef kiss. Eat it over a bed of steak white rice. If you're gonna order to go.. open your box to not build up condensation. My 15 min ride home my wings were still crispy. My kid is 7.5 and tears this gumbo up . It's not the thick gumbo you would normally see at other chain restaurants. It's a clean broth with okra & sausage..like a simple but comfort taste of it. The consistency of food the past few years still on point, can't wait for crawfish season!

    Gyōza were amazing
    Kelly S.

    It's not often you come across a restaurant where you can have confidence in ordering anything off the menu. This is one of those places. Everything has been beyond delicious. Locally owned and made fresh. The daily chalkboard specials are always so unique, like gumbo ramen. Service is always fast and very friendly. It's a very casual dining room. It feels very comfortable hanging out and taking our time. Even saw people working on their laptops at lunch. This is one of my favorites! They even have daiquiris

Houstonians, Pearland natives, surrounding cities, and out-of-towners, this is your stop. The Boudin Balls were delicious, but my hubby said a little soft. Of course, I'm like Mikey, and I LIKE IT! Lol. On to my plate, 3 lbs of crawfish, corn, potatoes, and andouille sausage with the House Signature Sauce Extra Spicy hit the spot. Talking about tongue slapping goodness. (Disclaimer: Don't get extra spicy if you can't handle Habanero heat!) Next up, hubby had the Shrimp Po Boy with fries and red beans. CLEANED. THE. PLATE!!! To cool down some of the heat, the AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS beignets with vanilla ice cream, just like Cafe Du Monde, or even better. The vanilla ice cream was creamy and rich, which paired well with the beignets. Wait! I forgot to mention the Lychee Lemonade. What a wonderful balance to a wonderful meal. Thank you to our beautiful and sweet server, Dayna. She makes you feel like family. Top notch service and very accommodating. Miranda came by since I read several reviews that mentioned her. Lovely ladies! Okay, line up and hit this spot! Til next time... Later Gator!!!

Every time I visit the city, y'all already know that Crawfish Cafe is my first stop after the airport and last stop before I go home. This is my favorite crawfish joint in the entire country, but my first time at this location. The wait was a bit longer than I'm used to, but it's understandable for a Friday evening. I highly recommend adding your name to their Yelp wait list from the app before heading there. Learn from our experience and optimize accordingly, LMAO. I got Combo #1 with The Mix sauce, medium spice level, and a pineapple sausage add-on. We got an order of Cajun fries and hush puppies for the table as well, but honestly it was more than enough food. I brought a good chunk of my meal home to-go and am already looking forward to enjoying these leftovers tomorrow.

The rice lacked the stickiness needed to hold the rolls together, so they kept falling apart, and the fish was served warm instead of cool. As someone who loves fresh, raw fish, it fell a bit short (though the spicy garlic edamame was a highlight!). If you like standard, California-style rolls and want something local, give them a shot. But if you're a purist who loves fresh raw fish, this might not be the spot for you.
