    $22.00 for this wish I would have opened it before i left terrible quit robbing people with such small pieces of fish supposed to be 6 jumbo shrimp and 3 fish pieces and fries and hush puppies highly disappointing

    Entrance

    The service is excellent but the food isn't great. They offered me a drink while I wait I think it's really cute I'm there the docked boat is really cute. They have water on the side to give it the real boas feeling. My said was fresh and on point. The shrimp felt a little over cooked. The the hush puppies were excellent! I would recommend this place apparently the oysters are the best sellers.

    Pretty good food. The oysters and shrimp were better thank the fish in my opinion. The fish was too slimy/ veiny for me. The place has friendly staff.

    6 pack fried Oysters and double slaw.. oysters were small but great!

    Benny's has been here for a very long time. Food was is a will probably always be great!! Might wait was on the long side or else 5 stars would be noted... Worth a visit!

    There are  o words for how delicious

    I can tell you this.... Detroit doesn't have this kind of deliciousness!!!! From the second you pull into the driveway, you walk in the door everybody greets you everybody is on it they don't miss a beat and their food is spectacular!!!! We highly highly recommend this location to everyone as if this minute. We will absolutely be back. This was beyond perfect!!!! Thank you all

    This place is nice and clean. Had the raw and baked oysters. Seafood gumbo is good here. It was packed and busy here for lunch. Service was great. Will be back again.

    This place is very nice. This is my first time coming here and I want to say this was a very positive experience. I was greeted by Emmanuel, who was working on the patio Once he found out that we were first timers, he took time to give suggestions and answer any questions we had even though he was waiting tables and we were getting carry out, so it didn't benefit him at all. We go inside and the awesomness continues. The gentleman at the register was so polite. He took complete care of us! I will return just because of the customer service (don't get me wrong, the food was delicious). The only complaint I have is they forgot the bacon on my son's sandwich. I didn't even bother to contact them about it because everything else was perfect.

    By far the best seafood in HOUSTON! Love this place. If you sit at the bar you get exceptional service. The food is always made when ordered and the micheladas are always perfect!

    First time in Houston from Canada. I love Cajun food and Plush Bar and Grill didn't disappoint…read more As a single woman it wouldn't be a place Id normally go, and from the area I was glad to have gone early evening. Took an uber from my hotel 10mins away. However, if you want really delicious cajun cuisine don't let the decor intimidate you. The food was some of the best I ever had and my server / bar maid Malaysia was polite and whipped up a delicious margarita

    I wanted to support this place, but my experience was extremely disappointing. When we arrived, the…read moretables were dirty, which gave a poor first impression. Our server's shirt was tattered and unprofessional, adding to the overall lack of care in presentation. We were told the food would take a little while because it was cooked to order, so I expected fresh, hot food. Instead, it came out only warm with no steam at all, and the fries were undercooked and still hard in the middle. We sent the seafood loaded fries back twice because they were not prepared properly. After that, we ended up just getting a po' boy and fries to simplify things, but unfortunately the experience got even worse. I became sick afterward and dealt with food poisoning symptoms for three days. Between the cleanliness issues, poor food quality, and getting sick, I can't recommend this place based on my experience.

Almost like "dirty crawfish". After 1 bite I didn't finish them. The sauce was very good. I gave it 3 stars because I went in with 3 other people and what they had was tasty. I'm going to try other items- when we return. Maybe they are still working the bugs out. Went today again and tried the Phillycheese steak loaded and Egg-rolls ... absolutely fabulous!!

The staff does not fully understand what the menu items come with and thinks that everything is the boil sauce. I order the garlic noodle box with extra garlic sauce. When my food came out it was covered in the ohh la la boil sauce. When I explained that the sauce that usually is with it is clear not red, she said this is what they use. I said it doesn't look like the photo on the board, her response was bc I asked for extra. I said extra does not mean change the type. She then just looked at me. I asked for a remake so it's like the photo. It seems that they rinsed off the noodles bc they were cold and thru the smoked sausage that I bit off and egg that I bit and placed it on top and smothered more red sauce on it! This is the last time, and I will not be bringing my family and friends or suggesting this place to anyone.
