    Boiled crawfish medium spice

    Was so good! Crawfish were huge and delicious. Super fast shipping with very reasonable pricing throughout. Will definitely order again and highly recommend this place.

    I think I crave some form of seafood every other day. Unfortunately the only ones I know of are 20 minutes or more away. So I decided to take a risk and try a place not too far from my apartment. I called beforehand to see the price of crawfish. It was 5.89 (needless to say I was sold because the place I usually go to was charging 7.99/lb. Like I understand it's the beginning of the season but sheesh). Anywho, I was super surprised! The menu had a lot of things I honestly wanted to buy and try for the next time I go out! The crawfish was pretty good! Very spicy, which I like. And I got the pork egg rolls, they were good too. Crunchy and fried just right. I say if you're in the Kenner area definitely give them a try because I definitely will be back.

    WOW! This place is so non-descriptive in location it's a great find! Huge carry out business and a great menu too. I had the oyster poor boy that was heaping with oysters. I also had a shrimp boudin that I had not had before, it's a shrimp sausage, fried. While just OK, the spiciness was good and worth the try. Located off and tucked back off the main road it's worth the effort. Nice lunch!

    Gumbo was not too thick and not too runny; it was the perfect consistency and served with rice. It had plump shrimp, sausage, and just a delicious hearty warm gumbo. Went with a group of friends and we all decided we wanted round 2 of gumbo the next day, that's how much we all liked it. Crawfish was the perfect amount of heat/spice and savory. The corn and sausage was good but the star was the turkey neck! So so tender, juicy, and savory. Chicken wings were the smaller ones, which to me are the perfect size. They had a nice crunch without all the batter.

    We stopped by here yesterday during lunch time and was NOT disappointed... Their crawfish was SOO freakin' good, y'all!!! Like, FOR REAL, for real. I've practically tried the boiled crawfish from every other seafood establishment in Kenner (most were decent, but not usually something to write home about... or would even merit a second visit), and this one is by far THE BEST!!! Location is a bit isolated from the rest of Williams Blvd., but it's totally worth the drive. P.S., they also sell poboys and seafood plates, but we didn't get a chance to try them yet... Will definitely do so the next time we stop by (honestly, I'm already planning on coming back sometime next week). The owner was extremely nice and accommodating, which is always an added bonus in my book. TIP: I'd suggest calling them in advance if you're coming for crawfish, because they can easily sell out on a weekday (they sold out while we were there). Final Thoughts: Don't sleep on "DAT" crawfish, guys!! lol, get it...?! It's called "Captain Dat" *inserts crying face emoji*

    I found this little comfort food gem out in Kenner. OMG. The wings are piping hot-always, and the rice is so buttery with nicely sized shrimp. @captaindat504 seafood spot is so good! A family business with quality comfort food. It you are looking for a nice little seafood spot to fill your glutinous desires during the quarantine, grab a to go order ASAP. It's on Williams Blvd. allllll the way at the end in the new the new construction project on the left. I'm excited to see what else is coming to that area

    Stopped by to get some crawfish and ended up with turkey neck, gumbo, and a hot sausage sandwich. All were very delicious. Gumbo and crawfish were very well seasoned. Well definitely return again.

    Great boil! Went there today not even sure if they were open... They were very open and had boiled crawfish for sale... We bought 5 pounds and took them home. The boil flavor is spicy and good... Not too spicy. Hints of lemon and other delicious spices.

    So delicious! Best crawfish in Kenner! Perfectly juicy & spicy. Highly recommended!

    It's rare to step into a restaurant before the doors open, an almost behind-the-scenes experience…read more You get to see what makes people tick and who they really are. In the restaurant business, we all have a switch: once the doors open, it flips. Until then, you're seeing people exactly as they are. This team is genuine. Hands down. Yes, I know, I'm technically here for a king cake. Standing in line for a king cake from a famous fried chicken company almost feels satirical. But watching the entire team sit down together for a meal an hour before service told me everything I needed to know about the leadership and the values of this company. People matter here. You can see why the sandwiches are as good as they are. You can feel why the king cake is worth the wait. This team operates like a family; kind to one another, intentional, and connected. The food is made with care because the people are cared for. I'm not here to review the food (which is phenomenal) or the king cake. I'm here to review the brand. This is the kind of business we should be proud to support as a community. Keep it up.

    I thought Southern's was pretty good overall. The menu offers some unique options, including…read morecreative chicken sandwiches and a few Asian-inspired fusion dishes that go beyond traditional Southern cuisine. I also like that they feature a daily special that isn't on the regular menu--it adds a nice element of variety. Everything is cooked to order, which is definitely a plus. Just keep in mind that most of the menu is fried, so this isn't the place to go if you're looking for a particularly healthy meal.
