    Fish Poboy

    Food was 9/10 the boudin balls 10/10!! Service was great we had 3 different servers they all checked on us in a timely manner there was definitely no waiting for anything they even offered to charge the phone since it was dying the ambience i would give it a 9/10 as well would highly recommend

    Shell yeah seafood boil
    Leanna T.

    The staff here were super friendly and attentive. They consistently check in on me during throughout the evening to see if I needed anything or how the food was. The boudin balls were nice and crispy and the sauce was a bit tangy to help cut the heaviness. The seafood boil was good. The snow crab was just a tad bit too salty for my liking but the shrimps were great! The restaurant was pretty spacious and the music was playing at a nice level.

    Yes indeed! Nobody told me about this hidden gem in Spring Branch. Thanks to Houston Restaurants Week, my Hubs and I came for lunch and left with dinner it was so much food. All the workstaff were nice and made awesome recommendations. The mango sweet tea was my favorite however the Hubs said his strawberry lemonade could have been a lil more sweeter. Them crab legs with the mother sauce was finger lickin' good. OMGOODNESS 10/10, we'll be back again.

    Drove an hour to this place and glad we did the servers were great we had! Def the snow crab was our favorite we went with their spicy mamas house seasoning which was so delicious! Can't wait to be back.

    Seafood boil

    Came here for my birthday, and fell in love. The service here is 1000/10 , super cool and generous owners. The food was very delicious and worth the price, took about 20 min for two of the largest boils. The ambiance was clean and set a chill mood. Thank you guys, would recommend this place . Will definitely come again.

    Such amazing service and food! Came to celebrate a birthday and the servers were so welcoming and kind. The place was clean and well kept. Our server Jeff gave us an overview on the menu since it was our first time. 10/10 and would recommend to my friends!

    We were passing by Houston on the way home and were looking for a crawfish spot. We found this place on YELP and it didn't disappoint. We ordered 5lbs of crawfish and got 1 lb free. The extra items were all separate which is the only reason I'm giving four stars. The extra items added up for just two people to eat. The recommend house spice was delicious. The crawfish were made fresh and the food came out hot. Can't wait to go back for crawfish.

    Cajun Pasta - Shrimp & Crawfish
    Shelly A.

    I hope some of the dishes are good, but I experienced too many "off" things to have any interest in returning. (1) A team member was outside smoking directly in front of the entry door. He had to move out of the way for me to approach the door. (2) Pepsi only (3) The pasta I ordered was served dine-in with a plastic fork. No. Just no. I requested a real fork. A short search expedition and quick rinse had to occur. (4) The pasta sauce tasted like Zatarain's in a cream. Maybe that does it for some people, but I'm a hard pass on that. It's not even about the spice; it just doesn't taste good. The crawfish and shrimp in the pasta were overcooked and rubbery. (5) The music at 2pm was pumpin'. I'm sure some people like it or could care less. I prefer a calmer vibe at lunch. It wasn't overly loud, just an odd weekday lunch vibe.

    Crawfish with Zaddy Sauce
    Candy C.

    Ordered Crawfish Fried Rice and Crawfish with Zaddy Sauce to go. The crawfish were tasty but small, I was told it is still early in the season. Unfortunately, there were a handful of inedible mushy ones. Fried rice was meh on its own but there was a sauce in the box that made it pretty tasty. Service was good. It's a family friendly dining.

    Blue crab
    Sarah E.

    I've been to this establishment twice and had their blue crabs both times which were flavorful. crabs were big and meaty. We got about two crabs per pound. Personally, I prefer the house special over the claw daddy sauce but I haven't tried the other two. I've also had their crawfish, which was tasty and full of flavor. They're generous with the truffle garlic butter fries and Parmesan fries and they both meet expectations but it's nothing spectacular. I enjoyed the garlic butter noodles. Excellent service. Staff members are friendly, quick and attentive. They returned to check on us many times to clear the seafood shells and refill our drinks. They packed our crawfish to go for us with bibs, gloves and multiple bags there was no spillage and the car did not smell of Cajun seafood. When I went on the weekend, there was a 30 minute wait and when I went on a weeknight, there was no wait. Restaurant and restroom are clean.

    LORD HAVE MERCY! This place slaps... period. The crawfish is fresh, the spices are packed with flavor and not overbearing. I wanted to order everything on the menu but I was so full. Will be returning for more!

    Mango margarita
    Dez V.

    Grilled oysters were ok... I would have liked them cooked d a bit longer. The garlic noodles were good, small portion for the price though. They margarita was good. Food took a while to come out. Ambiance was clean. Would I visit again?... probably not.

    Kaylen V.

    Traveling 1,000 miles from Greensboro, NC to Houston, TX just to go to Clawdaddy might sound crazy but it was worth every mile. The seafood was packed with flavor, the frozen watermelon Jolly Rancher daiquiri was so refreshing, and that Michelada with its tangy spices kept me sipping nonstop. Now I'm home and already craving it again. Clawdaddy isn't just a restaurant, it's an experience. Oh, the staff's warmth and hospitality made the entire visit unforgettable. RECOMMENDED!

    The yummy house sauce is the freaking best... it's so good... I'm still thinking about it a few…read moredays later... We got the 6 Ibs medium spice level with corn and potatoes. Unfortunately adding corn and potato's is an additional cost but it's so worth it. Curious to try the leftover sauce with the rice next time We also got the gulf oysters which came with your typical oyster dressings. They were so fresh and plump!!! Next time I would try the premium seasonal oysters :)

    I really wanted this to be a hit. Seafood, oysters, alcohol....vibes and a time right? It wasn't…read more I tried the bang bang shrimp, fried pickles, and chargrilled oysters. Something simple that should be an easy win. Unfortunately, everything leaned the same direction: either it was heavy, over-sauced, or overly garlicky. It tasted more like dressed-up frozen food than something thoughtfully prepared. And listen...I don't mind indulgent. But there still has to be balance and fresh food. Fresh like it was raw and delivered today, not fresh like fried in the last 15 mins. When everything is coated, covered, and competing, nothing actually stands out. The drinks didn't help either. They leaned hard on alcohol without much flavor behind them--more "this will get you there" than "this tastes good." Nothing was terrible. But nothing made me want another bite, either. And with seafood, that's kind of the whole point. The atmosphere is friendly, great music, and the service was very attentive. Even the presentation wasn't bad. It just wasn't enough. But at some point, you stop asking what's missing and just accept that it's not landing. I was still hungry so I went next door hoping for a better experience. I want to be clear: It's not bad. It's just not working.

    Back at one of my favorites!…read more Started with the Smoked Redfish Dip and, as always, it did not disappoint. Creamy, smoky, flavorful, and paired with warm crackers... an easy 10/10. I decided to step outside my comfort zone and try the Oysters Rockefeller... and let's just say they weren't my speed. They weren't bad, just not for me. So naturally I sent them back and ordered my tried-and-true favorite... Chargrilled Oysters with extra garlic butter, Parmesan, and bacon. Now THAT'S what I came for! Rich, buttery, cheesy, smoky, and absolutely loaded with flavor. Every bite reminded me why these are my go-to. And because brunch rules apply... it was only right to enjoy a pineapple mimosa (or two ). Light, refreshing, and the perfect pairing for all that seafood. If you're visiting Goode Co. Seafood, my advice is simple: Don't skip the Smoked Redfish Dip. Order the Chargrilled Oysters. Add extra garlic butter. Thank me later. 9.5/10 -- I'll definitely be back! #LoveJonesEats #HoustonEats #GoodeSeafood #ChargrilledOysters #SeafoodLover #HoustonFoodie #BrunchVibes #MimosaMood #SupportLocal #FoodieFinds

    Beware of what's in your food if you eat here…read more I left Goode Company Seafood with a cracked tooth after biting into a hard foreign object in my meal and needed dental treatment. After multiple calls and emails over several weeks, someone finally called and offered me a gift card. A cracked tooth isn't worth a gift card. The way this was handled was disgusting. No accountability whatsoever!

    I wandered in not expecting much, but my experience here ended up much better than I thought…read more I went with their August prix fixe and went with their Truffle Deviled Eggs, Crispy Sweet & Sour Shrimp, and Key Lime Tart. The deviled eggs make good comfort food and was satisfying. This version doesn't have much of a kick, but it's very creamy and you can definitely taste the truffle oil. The homemade potato chips also add to the texture and salt between bites. The shrimp dish was fun with a light and crispy batter, well-seasoned and drizzled with sweet chili sauce. The cool ranch surprisingly added to the shrimp and enhanced the chili sauce rather than overwhelming it. The made-in-house fries were far better than expected. I was somewhat expecting dense, oily, boring fries, but these were very crisp and somehow didn't feel too greasy as far as fries goes. Almost seemed like an injustice for it to be served with ketchup as it was too good for it. Lastly, the tart was a great way to end the meal without it being too much. Loved the crust. The tart shell tasted really good and went well with the filling, which had a lighter consistency than pudding. Fruits tasted like they were on season, even though it should be a bit too late for strawberries. I'm also a sucker for meringue. I'll have to come back to see if it wasn't a fluke, but there were a lot of dishes here that looked good. Maybe even swing by for happy hour, we'll see. Definitely a nice spot to visit in this neighborhood.

    Came here with a friend for Happy Hour and it was a good time!…read more It was pretty empty when we got here around 4 but got pretty packed after ~5:30. We ordered the following: - Mama Pauly's Meatballs - Buttermilk Popcorn Chicken Bites - White Truffle Devil Eggs - Single Cheeseburger Separate from the Happy Hour Menu: - KP's Wicked Wings (BBQ Flavor) - Crispy Sweet n/ Sour Shrimp Out of everything we ordered from the happy hour menu, I would personally recommend the meatballs, truffle devil eggs, and cheeseburger. The meatballs and tomato sauce were both solid and I loved the toasted bread on the side. As for the truffle deviled eggs, that's something you don't see often on the menu! The truffle flavor/aroma was solid and the fresh chips on top were nice. The cheeseburger was pretty good and I enjoyed all the veggies that came with! Aside from that, the restaurant had a neat interior/decorations and good service!

    Wow this place really blew me away. It's a near perfect spot for a business lunch or dinner (or if…read moreyou're willing to splurge with your own money for a good meal or a hot date). I wasn't sure what to expect based on the name of the restaurant, but essentially their seafood options are spectacular. And it feels like an exclusive club because the decor and service are both very much high class and special. We tried the coconut shrimp as the appetizer and really liked it. It was lightly fried and the shrimp was cooked to perfection - not under and not over. I would highly recommend this one to start. Loved it. If you're looking for a fair-priced meal, they have lots of salad and sandwich options. I tried the salmon poke bowl and it was so delicious. The fish was extremely fresh, and all the flavors blended together really well. It was like a healthy party in my mouth. It was great decision. You wanna splurge a bit and live large like YOLO? You gotta get the crab cake. Now, how good can a crab cake be? Well, if you're paying close to $50 for one crab cake, you better believe it's gonna be freaking awesome. And alas, it was. Best crab cake I've ever had in my life, no joke. And I've tried a lot of crab cakes in my many decades of dining out. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant and will be coming back many times. Enjoy! Quick note on parking - plenty of parking in a huge lot shared by many businesses such as Kenny and Ziggy's. Only annoying part is several sections of the lot are designated for specific businesses, so just look for the signs and be willing to park a little bit further away towards Taco Deli and Bluestone.

    3rd time to this location,(best) Bellaire is 2nd and the Pearland location comes in last place(food…read morewasn't hot and a little salty) and now we've tried them all! I got my usual Kickin Cajun Crawfish - spicy -so much flavor and it really isn't too spicy! Hubs got the 1lb headless shrimp with Texas Cajun- spicy with garlic butter and they were perfectly cooked. Okra-5/5 very lightly breaded Crawfish eggrolls- meh Wings- Cajun buffalo 5/5 taste like Franks with added Cajun flavors We didn't get it this time but get the red beans and rice- yummmm(better here because it isn't dry like the Bellaire location) service is quick and friendly and the time to come is at lunch or early because they get really busy!

    Nut allergy friendly: Pretty much no issues here!…read more Parking: There's some in the strip mall but definitely less than at the Bellaire location. Time to Appetizers: 20 Minutes Time to Crawfish: 25 Minutes It's a solid branch from the main location in Bellaire, but they're missing some things. For example, the Bellaire location has the new Viet-Cajun flavor of sauce that hasn't debuted here yet (though you can DIY a mix). (Review is for July 2026 if they've updated since then) We got here at 6:05PM and got seated with no issues. Ordered the following: Combo #1 with extra corn and potatoes (3.5/5): Crawfish isn't in season, so don't be surprised at my low rating. It's still great and flavorful all around. Garlic Noodles with Shrimp (4/5): Still incredibly rich and buttery and garlicy and great for a palate cleanser. I'd skip the shrimp; you get eight pieces for $10 extra and that's not really worth it. Crawfish Beignets (4.5/5): Still a fantastic appetizer. Comes out hot, crispy, buttery, and is a really indulgence. 1 lb. Little Neck Clams (4.5/5): I liked these more than the crawfish tbh. It really does depend on what's in season. Very easy to eat, very flavorful. Service was generally good but our server seemed slammed; it took a long time to get water refills and to place extra orders (we got a second order of beignets to-go). Market price for crawfish is high and they're not in season, so don't be afraid to ask. The Combo #1 in July 2026 was $22. Overall, I'll probably be back during crawfish season especially because it's more convenient for me than the Bellaire location, but the Bellaire location has it beat for general atmosphere after the remodeling and much better options for mixes there.
