    Crawfish Etouffee
    Brenda G.

    Great service, great food! We decided to visit today, the first Friday of Lent, for some seafood for dinner. I placed my to go order quickly, and waited there for it. Not a long wait at all, and just long enough for me to check the items in the freezer, and see the large, crawfish they were putting out that were freshly boiled and hot. At home we opened the boxes and bowls and the servings are largish, and the food was very fresh. The crawfish etouffee is simply delicious! I will be returning, for dinners, and crawfish, and the next time I think I will bring home the frozen crawfish stuffed bell peppers in the freezer, they looked very good! There are a few tables, and bar stools for dining in as well. Prices are average, and all the food was well worth it. We will be back!

    This place has the worst crawfish I have ever eaten. I think they use mud for seasoning. Even the potatoes taste like mud

    Slamming food with Slamming service! The seafood is off the chain if your a fan. I recommend the Boudin balls and crawfish poboy.

    This place is AMAZING! Every time I come to Baton Rouge I stop here. They have some of the best crawfish in town. Very friendly staff!

    I had really been looking forward to trying Parrain's Seafood, but unfortunately my experience was…read moredisappointing. Our waitress, Kate M., didn't have the best customer service. She came across as short, unfriendly, and overall not very pleasant. I first ordered a Banana Foster's Martini, but she came back and said they didn't have the ingredients. No problem--I asked for an Espresso Martini instead. A few minutes later, after bringing everyone else's drinks, she returned and simply said they couldn't make that either and asked if I wanted something else. At that point, I just declined. When it was time to order, our table had nine people. She took my husband's order, then went around the table taking everyone else's order. By the time she got back to me, she said, "Okay, is that it?" I had to remind her that she hadn't taken my order yet. I ordered the crab and corn bisque, a salad, and the stuffed catfish with creamed spinach. The salad came out quickly and was very good. Then everyone else at the table received their meals while I only received my bisque. After waiting, I was told my stuffed catfish "didn't come out right" and had to be remade. At that point, I honestly wondered if it was a joke. It wasn't. By the time my entrée arrived, everyone else was nearly finished eating. To the restaurant's credit, they did remove the stuffed catfish from my bill, and I appreciated that. However, the entire experience left me feeling overlooked from start to finish. My biggest suggestion would be for our waitress to work on her customer service. A smile goes a long way. Saying things like "Give me that plate," slamming cups onto the table, and appearing annoyed throughout the meal doesn't create a welcoming dining experience. Hospitality is just as important as the food, and I hope this feedback is taken constructively.

I had no idea. Corks was owned by the same people. One of my friends who works at Coy-Yon's in West Baton Rouge told me that I could still get that potato pretty easily on Government Street. I guess this is basically the same thing as our restaurant in Port Alan instead of barbecue, they specialize in fish and shrimp. I did get shrimp as my protein for the potato and it was delicious Definitely go, give it a shot. The server was very nice and friendly. Parking very simple. Interiors mostly white. They've got some art on the wall, looks like it's done locally. Most mostly of their other restaurant. If I had to complain and be picky, I would say take that Christmas tree down. I always find the tacky when restaurants or businesses leave their Christmas tree up all year. It's never the flex they think it is. But who cares. The food is good.

The Captain's Platter comes loaded with fries, slaw, hushpuppies, and the honey butter roll that got me rolling. They don't just stop at fried seafood either; they also have crawfish étouffée, shrimp & grits, and po'boys on Gambino's bread keep things real Louisiana. Simple, flavorful, and straight to the point. This is the definition of comfort food. Tonylameats Approved @Cork's Fish & Shrimp

I…read moreLOVE crab clusters and they have Snow and Dungeness at a great price and they are a good price. Sometimes you want seafood but you don't want to go get it so why not make it at home. They have all the fixings for a boil from the corn down to the sausage. The service is great the people who serve you the fish always give you what you ask for. Now the ambiance is to be desired. It's on the Infamous Plank Road. So shop with caution on that street. They always have a sheriff or two on the property to help keep down problems but still be cautious. I will continue to shop for my fresh fish and shellfish from this local home town staple.

    CRABBAGE! Tony's…read moreSeafood... I ordered seasoned crabs, not what looks like the remnants of dirty old slumgum crabs who retired from the mud wrestling team. When did dirt become "seasoning." Unless y'all have invented invisible Cajun dirt seasoning. Customers do not expect to purchase filthy, dirty, cold, crabs from a company hailing an 'outstanding, legendary reputation as a top-tier local institution, highly praised for its exceptionally fresh Gulf catch and serving quality food.' When returning the crabs for a refund, the lady giving the refund trying to convince my husband to keep them dirty cold things said, "We sell crabs at room temperature. We don't sell hot crabs." Ya'll the receipt clearly says, "HOT CRABS." Did she not realize the infraction she admitted! She basically confirmed they commit food violations, not keeping food at proper temperature!! How about that? He told her to refund our money back. Cleanliness and proper food temperature matter and this is not the first time I have returned dirty, cold, CRABS, back for a refund. Your hot food portions also have shrunk considerably yet your prices had increased tremendously. People are paying more for less. Tony's, this horrible economy does not support greed, especially dirty greed especially where improper food handling or poor food prep can lead to food borne illnesses. Here's what Google says about local seafood suppliers, markets, and regional culinary authorities who advocate for rinsing or thoroughly prepping live blue crabs before they hit the boiling pot to remove marsh mud and debris. Guess who's leading the pack!!! "Tony's Seafood: "Located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the largest seafood market in the Gulf South operates under a strict operational standard that prioritizes extensive washing and sorting of live local blue crabs and crawfish prior to boiling or retail packaging to strip away pond and bayou mud." ARE THEY PRACTICING STANDARDS THEY ADVOCATE? Things that make you go hmmmmmm...... Rouses Markets "in their official emphasizes the practice of purging and rinsing live shellfish in fresh, cold water or placing them on draining ice to clean off the shells before introducing them to the seasoned boil." Louisiana Crawfish Company "instruct to physically rinse mud and marsh grit off blue crabs before they hit the boiling pot." As the song say, "You better shop around." I'll be spending my money elsewhere. Y'all can keep your overpriced food and swamp dirt "seasoned crabbage garbage."
