Menu 3/26

Those were some good mudbugs! The server was helpful in helping us decide. We got there early on a Thursday and got the 5# special which came with 2 potatoes and 2 corns. You can buy more sides if you want. Our first batch was very spicy, had the seasoning sprinkled on top. Not my favorite method, but oh well. The next round didn't have the spice on top and my husband found that more tolerable. I guess we'll order separate pounds next time LOL I like it when the cayenne makes my head itch! There's a bar area, several tvs around, and a great patio for outdoor seating. Being a crawfish place, it's super casual, and the place was packed by the time we finished. They have a lot of beers on tap and some in bottle too. I told them they should start an early happy hour, maybe 3-6pm, selling pints of draft for $5 and pounds of bugs no sides for $7... we'd definitely go!! As amazing as it was, we spent over $80 on 4 beers and 5# of crawfish and at that rate, it rivals what we spent at McAdoo's...yikes. Still, got my first fix of the season and I was pleased!

5 pounds of crawfish
Naiya K.

We came to Comal Crawfish Company and had the BEST experience thanks to our server, Jorge! He was seriously amazing -- super attentive, constantly checking in on us, and always making sure our drinks were refilled without us even having to ask. He was so kind, knowledgeable about the menu, and just had such a welcoming, personable vibe that made the whole experience even better. He also told us about the specials for the day and made great recommendations. You can tell he really cares about his customers and takes pride in what he does. If you come here, definitely ask for Jorge -- he made our night!

Boudin egg rolls
Jewel B.

I've been here a few times and I always enjoy it. They have the best crawfish I've had since moving to the New Braunfels area. The crawfish are always big, flavorful, and decently priced. This time I came, I tried the crawfish etouffee and it was not for me. The flavor wasn't bad and it's a good price, but the texture ruined it for me. It was very thick and chunky. I'm not sure if that's just how it's supposed to be, but I just know it wasn't for me. I would highly recommend getting the boudin egg rolls! The servers are always super sweet and attentive. The vibe is chill and layed back. I usually like to sit outside, but today it was too hot, so I sat inside. I still prefer their outside seating because it's quieter, but the inside is good for hot days.

Crawfish boil paired with a michelada
Hilda S.

Great crawfish boil! Took my dad since he's a fan of crawfish and enjoyed 5lbs. We ordered medium-spice and it was just right. Added the alligator sausage (yum!), mushrooms, corn and potatoes. Paired it with a michelada for a perfect Sunday Funday! There was a little of confusion with our table. My dad went inside and was told to choose a table. After waiting about 5 minutes, server came out with another couple and asked us to move. We did all that and then that couple moved to a different table. Another 5 minutes went by and two other groups came out. All those groups were served before us. If they can dial in outside service I would have given them 5 stars. Manager on duty was super nice and brought our doggies water.

Deliciously seasoned Peel & Eat Shrimp! Pay for a pound and get shorted, "noone will know", right?
Jennifer J.

I ordered 1 pound of peel & eat shrimp, mildly seasoned. The waiter gave me two cocktail sauces to go. I paid him for 1 pound of shrimp and tipped him $5.00. When I got the shrimp I asked him, "Can I get some garlic butter?" He replied, "That will be an extra fee. I can get you regular butter for no charge, though." I was a little perturbed that I had just spent $27 and some change and a garlic butter would require me to charge my card again for a minimal fee. I'm diabetic and this was supposed to be 16 ounces. (1 pound!) I returned home and had to weigh my portions. Only to find that they had shorted me over 1 ounce. The shrimp were well flavored, but go where you can get what you pay for, without them thinking you're trying to get too many free condiments.

Catfish, lightly mattered and delicious
Sarna B.

We were at a loss as to where to find great Cajun food In New Braunfels. Found it!! We sat outside with excellent service. We will be back enjoy more.

Great seasoning!

Great service and great crawfish! The wait can be pretty long on the weekend so be prepared. I love brining my dog here when the weather is permitting.

Gumbo
Joe T.

Excellent food and service, and a great Cajun flavor (pun intended). Did a bowl of gumbo and a catfish basket, both on point. The Gumbo was perfect, just spicy enough to get the eyes and nose moist but not overpowering. The catfish was good, there was more than enough in tge "small basket, the large would have e been too much. I had Cajun fries for my side, didn't notice anything different from normal fries but there were way too many of them for one human to eat.

Zero crawfish in the crawfish etouffe. This was the $15 bowl that ended up in the trash. A disgrace to Cajun food.

What is price of crawfish going for?

I’m just curious to know what size shrimp cost $16.00 a pound & does someone peel them for you at that price?

Well, they are an easy peel shrimp that is already split and de-veined for you so they are practically almost peeled for you. But don't knock it until you have tried them we have people drive in from over an hour away just for our shrimp. They are…

The crawfish are perfectly cooked and just the right amount of spicy. We also tried the "Cajun Elotes" and Boudin Balls which were both slap your mamma good. If you want crawfish go here and do the all you can eat special but don't skip out on the amazing Cajun food either.

Not a bar at all, they have canned beers and box wine ranging from $7-$13. Outside seating only so good for good weather days. Service was good. You would think at first glance between the ambiance and quality of food and customer service the experience that the tab would be cheaper but I got two lbs of crawfish, a single drink and kids meal (no drink, they only have soda and charged $2 for a bottle of cheap off brand water) for $50. It was just me and my son. Update after owners response: either I got scammed by the waitress or they recently lowered drink prices. For clarification I asked for a burger and waitress told me the only option available was the grilled cheese which was not worth $8 in my opinion.

We did have a slight problem with the side dish, but the manager went above and beyond to clear up the issue and make it a even better experience, he comped the side dish, the appetizer, and even gave us a free crème Brûlée... which was DELICIOUS! - the staff goes above and beyond even if there isn't a issue, but even if there is a small problem they do everything with plenty of compassion! And I even noticed they held the door open for all customers... you don't see that level of care anymore! 10/10 I recommend EVERYONE to go here! This will for sure be my new go to restaurant!

Because of that I don't really go out and eat, especially, to places in highly tourist areas, 9 times out of 10 you can expect, almost without exception for the food to taste generic despite at ambiance and visual appeal of the place. Tack on to that, I hate over paying for anything I can do better at home. And I'm pretty good in a kitchen. So with great reluctance I agreed to dinner at the Gruene River Grill. Like many places in a tourist trap the ambiance was good, nailed It. But I expected it. The service was good, as it often is. Unfortunately in a touristy area I don't give restaurants credit for those two pieces. I ordered the pork chaps and my wife ordered the pork medallions. They arrived at the table and immediately I began to realize my negative expectations were being challenged. The food was hot, not warm, hot. The plate visual was beautiful. Portion size, easily for two, at least the pork chops. I was sure this is where the positive experience would end. Then I took a bite. Negative expectations defied! I make a damn good smoked bone in pork chop, but this made mine seem like second hand at best. This was THE BEST pork chop I had ever had. I don't think I talked for the rest of the meal. Delicious! Beautiful. Handled with care. Did I say delicious. Did I say it was better than any other pork chop I had ever had? In case you missed it. It was the BEST pork chop I'd ever had and I just wanted to say, "thank you" to the GRG for such a welcomed and unexpected surprise! (My wife felt the same about her order)

Title: Definitely Not Their Best Night…read more I've eaten here at least four or five times and have always been impressed with the food. It's a casual, family-style environment, including the bar area, which is essentially one large communal table where anyone can grab an open seat. Unfortunately, today was completely different. The moment I opened the front door, I noticed a strong gas-like odor that became more noticeable farther inside. I mentioned it to the staff and was told a manager attributed the smell to being near sewage. That explanation didn't make much sense to me considering I've eaten here several times, they haven't relocated, and I've never smelled anything like it before. I stayed, but then my soup arrived cold and my made-to-order tacos were also cold. I eventually took my food to go. The waitress herself was pleasant, and I still tipped her 30% because these issues weren't necessarily hers to control. I've had enough good experiences here that I wouldn't write the restaurant off based on one bad visit, but between the unusual odor and cold food, this was definitely not the experience I've come to expect.

There are plenty of great places to eat in New Braunfels, but few combine great Texas comfort food,…read morea fantastic setting, and a proper margarita quite like this place. Let's start with the chicken fried steak, because it's absolutely worth talking about. Texas has no shortage of restaurants claiming to make the best, but this one belongs in the conversation. Crispy breading, tender beef, and all the comforting goodness you expect from a well-executed Texas classic. It's easily one of the better chicken fried steaks I've enjoyed, and I'd happily order it again. But honestly, the patio might be just as big a reason to visit as the food. The rustic surroundings, beautiful trees, and relaxed Hill Country atmosphere make this a wonderful place to spend an afternoon. It's one of those settings where you sit down for lunch and suddenly realize you've been there two hours because nobody feels particularly motivated to leave. And that's where the margaritas come in. Excellent margaritas. Cold, refreshing, and perfectly suited to an afternoon on the patio. I'm fairly certain a good margarita, a little Texas scenery, and absolutely nowhere else you need to be should qualify as a legitimate stress-management program. What really makes this place special is the combination. The food is good enough to bring you in, the atmosphere makes you want to stay, and the margaritas make you forget you had somewhere else to be. It's a popular destination, and for good reason. Whether you're entertaining visitors, exploring the Hill Country, or just looking for a memorable meal, this is an easy recommendation. My advice? Request the patio, order the chicken fried steak, enjoy a margarita, and don't be in a hurry. That's a pretty great way to spend an afternoon in Texas. Five well-earned stars.

Unfortunately, our experience did not meet those expectations. Upon checking in, we were initially directed to a table that had not been cleaned. When my boyfriend politely asked if we could be seated at a booth that was currently being cleared, the host initially agreed. However, she then seated two other guests, who were white and had arrived after us at that same booth. Given the circumstances and the subsequent request to wait for a different table, this incident opened our eyes to potential racial bias, and we felt it was best to leave and dine elsewhere. I believe your host staff would benefit from additional training regarding equitable service and professional conduct. It is truly a shame that our visit was handled in this manner, as we had hoped for a much more welcoming evening. I wanted to bring this to your attention in the hope that it helps improve your service for future guests.
