I stopped by Cajun's City off Rankin near 45 in Houston to satisfy a catfish craving. I went with the catfish po'boy with fries, and since it was happy hour, I grabbed the small box which came with seafood fried rice and five large peeled shrimp for $7. The setup is pretty standard for this kind of spot. You order at the counter and wait for your number to be called. The service was quick and the staff was friendly, so no complaints there. The food definitely packed some flavor and spice. The catfish po'boy was solid, with a good balance of crunch and tenderness. The fries were crispy and a good complement to the sandwich. The seafood fried rice was flavorful, and the shrimp were nice and large, cooked just right. Overall, it was a good meal. Nothing mind-blowing, but it definitely hit the spot. I'd come back for the catfish po'boy and maybe try something else off the menu next time. read more

Food service and price is what gets me every time, their happy hour is perfect. I often order the happy hour special which is shrimp, corn, potatoes and turkey neck. And it doesn't. Miss all for 10.99 you can't beat that . When I'm feeling fancy I get the trio box. Comes with crab legs. Good price. read more

I was in the mood for gumbo and seafood so we decided to give this place a try. Of all the food we ordered, the standouts were the crawfish boudin link, lobster dynamite and 9 shrimps and oysters. The gumbo was ok but I had taste for a different rue so it didn't hit the spot like I wanted. The seafood fried rice was good and reheated nicely. My companion also enjoyed his wings. We ordered online and our order was reafy when I arrived and everything was in tje bag. Staff was friendly and I would try this place again. One thing that was confusing was that some of our boxes had holes in them. I don't know it it was intentional for venting the food or if they were just damaged because not every box had a hole. However I did appreciate how secure they made the gumbo to ensure it didn't spill on the way home. read more

The food was very flavorful tasty seasoned and delicious. I crave Cajun City every time I visit Houston. It's a nice chill spot to have a conversation and eat and bounce. Just a nice stop. read more

This whole thing was seven bucks so I'm not complaining. I couldn't finish it all. I was expecting more spice for Cajun food but they batter their fish well, with crispy cornmeal. Even the fries are super crispy. It's cheap and right by the skate park. They clearly have a bunch of regulars here which is cool. Like I said only thing is there is no spice to this whatsoever but I guess it's more like fish and chips that way. They do have spicy options. read more

Love their turkey necks and seafood rice! Quick service and the happy hours deals are great

i enjoy cajun city.them turkey necks corn peeled shrimp.them crab legs & catfish nuggets .

I came for dinner last night and got 4IBS of crawfish with potatoes,eggs, sausage and Spicy corn. The food was hot and super fresh! I had mango boba slushy as well that's super yummy! Service was good at checkout while ordering. I can say once you sit down no servers/ workers will ask how are things going. It can get pretty packed fast! They have great prices on seafood! Parking is not bad but the parking lot can get pretty packed. While eating a gentleman came in screaming at customers and going to random tables and messing with the workers. The workers and few customers asked for security that surveillance the area but they were no where to be found sadly. Overall the aesthetic is very nice. read more

Sit down I don't know what's going on. The last Boudin balls I purchased was not Boudin balls. I don't know what it was, but it wasn't Boudin. It tasted and looked like mush, meat. Ordered a strawberry mango smoothie and it made no sense how sweet it was. So sweet I couldn't even enjoy it. Seems as if they slightly fell off, got lazy, I dunno. I don't like to continue spending money when it gets worse every time. So I'll stop going for a while. I'm not telling anyone not to go there because you might find something on the menu that'll work for you. As for me though.. I feel like they just fell off a bit. read more

The food is good I got a crab cake and combination shak. I has a bunch of garlic. I'm not a huge fan of garlic so I had to wash it off. The crab cake was good not as much crab as I'm used to but it was cool. Also got a strawberry mango smoothie too sweet but ppl like it like that. Reason for the three stars the service isn't great! They can definitely use more training. I with the ppl were more friendly. Also they ran out of cocktail sauce which I like with my shrimp they only have garlic butter because I asked for regular butter and they didn't have it. Nevertheless over it was a great experience. They have a sink to was your hands outside of the bathroom which is a great touch and a bunch of seating. Also very affordable. read more

I just tried this place for the 1st time and wanted to order damn near everything on the menu! It was soooo good and seasoned. I ended up with the fried fish platter and ate it all piping hot. The seafood rice had seafood in every bite. The slushies are top tier in this TX heat! I just moved an hr away from here, and I guarantee you I will be back! read more

First time trying them out and they're pretty good. Well seasoned food, plentiful amount, very reasonable price (especially in this economy). If you're looking for some good seafood that isn't going to break the bank, I'd definitely recommend this spot. Glad to see a spot like this one the north side of Houston. I ordered their 10 piece wing combo (that came with fries) half Buffalo hot, half lemon pepper hot. I also ordered the City Box (which was recommended by a person in line, who noticed me looking at the menu). The City Box comes with rice (I got it spicy) and shrimp. The staff was friendly and the place had security, seemed like a nicely tan establishment. Give them a try if you're in the area. read more

Either they changed the recipe for the yellow Cajun butter or they're giving out old butter. Taste and smells profusely like vinegar. It's disgusting. Don't even switch it out bc i noticed swamp city did the same. This was a big reason i came here, so I'll no longer be back. read more

Great seafood, super affordable, wish the staff was more friendly and professional but other than that great place

Food good and the service is good when I go in there. It's close to my job I can run in pick up my food and get back on time. If you short time for lunch suggest to call in your order and pick up. The place so good it packed at lunch time read more

Just finished getting my hair re twisted and was undecided about what to eat. Seen this place nearby and decided to give it a try. As soon as I walked in the place was nice !!! There was music, a movie on the tv screen and lots of people enjoying their food. I was immediately greeted upon approaching the counter. It was very welcoming. I ordered the crawfish fried rice small, 1/2 pound snickers crab legs spicy and the new menu item, turkey necks spicy. And I also ordered a pasión fruit slush. Everything hands down was a 10/10. I definitely will be going back for more !! Thank you again !!! read more

I genuinely enjoyed this meal. I did get the seafood boil. It was honestly really great. I would ask for another butter sauce but overall I give it a 8.9 out of 10. read more

I gave 5 stars before even getting my food because of the vibe! This place is so cute and cozy, the employees are awesome and friendly. The only thing that blew me was that the Turkey necks are $4.99 I know they're big; but in New Orleans you get the same thing for $2 at most!! But it's cool, I hope it's worth it; I'll be back after I get my food and stuff my face lol read more

If you are craving wings and seafood, this is the place to go! It reminds me of a boiling crab. The staff here are super efficient and friendly. You can order to go or dine in. My husband and I ordered wings and snow crab here, be sure to also order a side of Cajun fries to pair with your entree. They also have smoothies here! The sauce they use to boil their crab in is super garlicky, and buttery - just my kind of flavoring. Now if you need butter dipping sauce, they have it! It's 50 cents extra, but worth it. Overall great experience, wings and crab were delicious and will definitely come thru again when I'm in town. read more

I can't speak on the dime in service like some of the other reviews here - I ordered my food through delivery. HOWEVER, I can attest to the good tasting and well seasoned food I ordered and the drinks were good as well! Tried a few things as usual when I check out a new spot, which were the peeled shrimp (1lb), seafood fried rice, turkey necks, melon and green apple slushy and a strawberry banana smoothie. Eeeeverything was good. I love how they offer the peeled AND deveined shrimp option. The seafood fried rice (lg) was definitely a huge size portion - shared it with two others & still had leftovers. The shrimp had just the right amount of kick to it and lots of garlic (I love garlic), and the turkey necks -OMG, fall off the bone goodness. I like that it had similar seasonings like the peeled shrimp but slightly different. They were nice size pieces as well. The slushy & smoothie were a hit too; they were so refreshing. Long story short, I'd go back for sure! Or order delivery. ;) read more

The fried rice was really good. I love that I get to choose if I want egg and vegetables. I don't like peas, so I marked no vegetables, and it turned out good. The regular size is a serving for 2. The shrimp on top are a hood size and taste cooked well not overcooked. We were so hungry that I forgot to take pictures. The next time I go I want to try the turkey necks. I'll be back!!! read more

Let's just say this spot has turned into a regular pickup for my friends and I. We found cajun city on a yelp whim and although we went in about an hour or so before closing our food was still fresh and made to order. There were so many menu options we didn't know where to start, however the ladies at the register were super friendly and helpful. The Turkey necks for bill bags are *chefs kiss*. Who know you could receive such quality food and not pay an arm and a leg every time. I continue to recommend this spot as i frequent here as well. read more

We've visited this location multiple times and have had the same issue each time. The food is great, service is slow. Luckily they have great tasting food. I was a little disappointed in their "non-fried" food options as my taste buds were craving non fried Cajun food other than crawfish. Other than the slow kitchen, the dining area was clean with a NOLA vibe and the staff was friendly. Ended up on this visit with just an order of wings (lemon pepper & Louisiana rub). :-( read more

this is a easy 4 star restaurant the food is very nice good tasty and fresh the rice is my FAVORITE part of this place the slushy are good but the smoothies are DELICIOUS if i could i'd give it a 4.8 out of 5 butttttt this place is located in the more "ghetto" spot of houston would not recommend to go at night because a lot of "thugs" be out side playing loud music but the "thugs" are pretty cool for the most part read more

Absolutely delicious. Me and my husband ordered to go and I devoured my food. Do not have a before picture unfortunately. The 16 buffalo wings came with fries for 17.99. My husband did not finish it it is very filling good for another meal tomorrow. You can choose different flavors for the wings. He got half mango habenero and half original. Both were delicious. Mango habenero is the right amount of spicy with lots of flavor. Came with ketchup packets, ranch, silverware, and napkins. I got the combination snack not peeled. It was 27.99. Worth it. I almost finished everything but man. Delicious! The mild is pretty spicy to me but not overwhelming if you know you're not good with spicy food just order mild. Lots of garlic and sauce included in a bag. It had crab legs, shrimp, corn, and potatoes. And trust me it is MORE THAN enough. Came with a orange yellowish sauce. I didn't like that sauce. The sauce that's inside of the bag of seafood that I bought with garlic is already delicious enough in itself. All in all it was 50.85. I knew it was going to be delicious so I tipped extra. Always tip ur servers! read more

Crawfish fried rice is great. Better than the costumer service their and on the phone

Great Crawfish Spot! Also serve Bob's Tea Smoothies. The Crawfish had great flavor the mild is mild no heat at all mostly a garlic butter flavor. The spicy is unbearable even if you are a person that love spicy it's so spicy you can't enjoy your Crawfish. ProTip: ask to try the spicy sauce that's on the Crawfish before committing to several pounds and can't eat them. AThe fried food was typical in flavor. I ordered the Fried Oysters, fries and a turkey neck which is a must try the flavor is great! Atmosphere very relaxed. read more

I got the extra Hot, extra garlic with extra sauce Turkey necks and they were absolutely good ( 9 out of 10) and the spiciness makes it a (10) I got 1lb. Of the Hot with extra sauce shrimp (9.5 out of 10) they were nice, juicy,big shrimps too. I got 6 hot with extra garlic potatoes for my husband (10 out of 10) he says they were perfectly cooked and very well seasoned and delicious and I got 2lbs. Of crawfish to try them for the first time from here. I have my usual place for crawfish already but I had to try Cajun city's because they had crawfish (7 out of 10) they could have been cooked a little more some were still not red yet! I got home and steamed the crawfish with the sauce from the shrimp and potatoes and popped in my own corn and we had a go at it. I recommend this place customer service friendly and the wait is not long even though their business is endless people in and out and dining area as well. Conveniently right off 45 and Rankin rd. Everything I've tried here was good. I'll have to try the rest of the menu items as well. Next time I'll post pictures. read more
