Snow crabs are $21.99/lb. Yikes! Ordered the shrimp fried rice to go, pretty good. The menu says they have beers but all they serve is sodas, water, juice and Gatorade. No alcoholic beverages. read more

Crab Ave - Spicy seafood noodle soup! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

I got the combination fried rice. It was overcooked. Also got boiled seafood. The Cajun sauce was about a quarter of the cup. I even tried to shake the bag with the sauce in it and couldn't get the sauce all over my food ‍ read more

Winner winner CRAWFISH for dinner! This place has earned my vote for best crawfish I've ever had in Houston! Crawfish Ave has only been open a little over a year and hopefully they're here to stay. With a maximum capacity of 49 people it isn't very large but it's suitable. I came along with 14 other fellow Yelpers and they accommodated us seamlessly while continuing to serve other guests without delays. They have a great selection of multiple seafood options and combos. Although I was tempted to try a variety of options I was only there for one thing, THE CRAWFISH! I ordered the #5 which was 5lbs of crawfish (Louisiana style flavor of course spicy) 3 potatoes, 3 corns and 3 sausages. They do offer other flavors and spice levels as well. Once I finally got my order and tasted my first crawdad I was shocked!! WHOA, WHERE WAS I AGAIN?!? Flavor was superb, spice had an excellent kick but not torturing and they weren't overcooked or soft; HUGE PLUS! They were pretty large in size and very juicy. The potatoes were soft enough to break open if you were to squeeze them with two finger but didn't fall apart (probably could've been cooked slightly longer). I probably should've tried the corn much sooner than I did but when I did it was kinda tough to pull off the cob; of course the flavor was there so I didn't mind working a little harder to grub! I've been bragging about this place to every friend and family member in the Houston area. I know where I'm going to eat crawfish if I don't want to boil any myself and I'll be sending everyone I know there as well. To top things off the chef and the rest of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful.. I will be back this week PROMISE! read more

Great food. Local mom and pop place but clean and good service. Very casual. Not a good place for a date! read more

We came here for an early dinner (5:30 pm) on Valentine's day. Opted for the 5lb crawfish combo with 3 corns, 3 potatoes, 2 sausage for $41.99 which is a better deal than buying per lb because it's currently $8.99 for crawfish (it's tiny right now too). I noticed the online menu shows everything as seasonal for price... Fries are $3.99 and so is that Udon noodles. We had to try the Udon noodles since it was recommended on Yelp. Not a bad idea to make sure you're full at the end, wish there were more sauce at the bottom. I could have done the meal without the fries because I barely ate the noodles because too much carbs. Overall the spices/flavors were good, extra spicy is just right for me but could be too much for others. Oh yeah, they only serve oysters on the weekend. read more

I tried this place for the first time and I was a little hesitant because it was empty in the middle of the day. I should've followed my first mind. I ordered crawfish and French fries. The crawfish was so horrible, I couldn't even eat them. First of all, the crawfish wasn't live. I'm sure they came right out of the FREEZER! They were extremely hard on the outside and tuff and dry on the inside. The flavor was just OK. I told the chubby white guy that worked the front area (Steven) about it (I think he lied about his name also). He got really defensive about my complaint and went out of his way to put on a glove so he can crack the crawfish himself smh when he tried it was a struggle for him as well. He then told me he understand my complaint because it's a struggle so I said I didn't want them and that's when things went left. He said his family ate them last night and didn't complain smh I said this is today not last night. He added a two dollar charge to my bill because he said I ate half of a pound. I ate 2 and the third one I cracked open so he could see how it looked. He then got loud and very disrespectful. I will NEVER dine here again. Steven is a jerk with bad customer service skills!! Customers are always right! read more

Wow! Love this joint!! Best seafood restaurant in town. The waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable

Visiting from Nashville TN. My first stop was Krab Kingz but it was kind of late so they were closed yet I wanted crab legs so bad and luckily found this place. My crab legs were served fairly prompt and tasted beyond my expectations. I will be back! read more

Their garlic butter sauce is amazing! It's not crawfish season yet, but frozen crawfish are just as good. jjambbong is highly recommended (quite spicy) read more

We've only taken out once from this place but so far the sauce is pretty tasty. We got 3 lbs of crawfish and 1 pound of shrimp with garlic butter sauce. Super yummy, except the shrimp was over cooked because it was mushy and hard to peel. We like trying different crawfish places to compare and I think this place is worth a try; maybe stay away from ordering shrimp. It's easy to overcook shrimp so maybe in the future I'll give them a chance to redeem themselves. ‍ read more

Me and boyfriend had 1lb of shrimp and 1lb of the snow crab. It filled us up 1000%! We ended up getting the garlic butter flavor and it was delicious! It's also BYOB so there's that too! Pretty secluded place but it's a 10/10 in my book! read more

Saw the reviews and thought to give it a try. The crawfish and shrimp were definitely not live. They were so dead and soggy you can tell they were not alive right before cook. If they seafood were cooked fresh. They will be very girl as you eat them. They were all over cooked, super small and salty so the whole chewing experience was not very good. I also tried the fried oyster and calamari, they were very salty and the tartar sauce wasn't even good to go with it. I should have known when they serve a Korean noodle in a Cajun restaurant. This is by far the worse flavored crawfish I've ever had in Houston. The shrimp fried rice was nothing like the pictures posted on Yelp. They used tiny tiny shrimps with a few frozen veggies and charged $10 for it. I had to stop after 2 bites. It was just so bad. I would not recommend this place. read more

It's wasn't the best experience It was our first time at this place. We were rushed to order and then when got the food the best thing was the Crabs. Hence the name of the restaurant. We ordered food extra spicy and we were told we couldn't handle it. I said bring it on. Either way clean restaurant, great crabs, not such a huge fan of their crawfish. read more

Crawfish were very tasty and delicious service was great but I think they were a little expensive. I would without a doubt go back but wouldn't be able to eat there's often as I'd like to :-) read more

Love this place, customer service was excellent. Definitely worth the drive from Cypress.

The sauce on the wings is special. Like they hand chopped that garlic special. It's an unassuming place with super friendly staff. We've been back 3 times this season and always have a great meal! read more

Just arrived the place is very clean we're given a pair of gloves and a bib so I don't get juice on my white shirt. Crawfish is very spicy we ordered medium and less you can handle the heat I'd recommend mild read more

Some of the best crawfish in town! I will say it's a 50/50 chance on the crabs and shrimp. Sometimes they are perfect and sometimes they are over cooked. But the flavor keeps us coming back. Crawfish fried rice is the bomb! read more

This is a true hidden gem for some. Who would of thought in a Vietnamese and Mexican plaza would have a Korean style crawfish shop?! I always believe to test a restaurant out is to go during a off time. This way or at least my philosophy on it is that a good restaurant should always be good on slow or busy times . Who eats crawfish during lunch hour during the work week ? lol I was that crazy loner that had crawfish. Decent amount of tables . Dark ambiance, with KPoP music blasting . The reason I gave this a 3.5 star is based on these following reason. This place doesn't deserve the bump of one star. $7.99 per/lbs and crawfish were tiny. I chose garlic butter extra spicy wasn't that hot. Also the usual garlic butter spicy has some zest and saltiness to it. The sauce here is more sweet and spicy not my cup of tea. Oh potatoes soft on the outside hard in the middle . Corn can't go wrong!! If his was some sort of mistake I would definitely come back to give it another shot if not . I may tell my friends and coworkers . Just the other day I stopped by a Cajun place and the crawfish were huge. If I'm paying a steep price give us more!!! read more

Wow! What a great addition to the neighborhood! Saw on a friends snapchat, and boy am I glad I asked! Don't let the shopping center scare you away. It's very nice and very clean inside. The service was so great, between the young man taking our order to the chef everyone was so nice and never fell short! We ordered 4 lbs of crawfish and a lb of the snow crab as spicy with corn and potatoes. They came out with nice trays and bring you bibs and gloves. Let's just say I am dreaming of that garlic sauce still and the spicy was the perfect amount of heat. Did I mention it's BYOB!!! even better!!! Can't wait to come back!!! read more

We have been here many times as a family and we have never been disappointed!!! Tonight our family came in from Montana and we wanted to give them something different!!! They always come for bbq or Tex-Mex so we thought let's try something different. Well it was totally worth it yet again!! Between the service and the make your own butter bar on top of the food was amazing!!! The food is always great, from the spicy to the right amount of spice you can not go wrong!!! Absolutely amazing!!! read more

I would much rather prefer to boil my own seafood. It's easier and cheaper then these guys. I tried an Lb of boiled shrimp and it was mediocre. If you want crawfish, crab, shrimp etc. do it yourself or find a better seafood/ bar than this place. Not licensed alcohol establishment. Need a more expansive menu. read more

So I am going to try not to be emotional in my response and give them a one star review because truly they are normally better than this...but I am super annoyed. I have been here numerous times and their flavoring on their crab is one of the best. If it wasn't for today I would give them a 4 or 5. I ordered 2 pounds of snow crab and 2 pounds of crawfish. The flavoring was excellent as usual but I am certain I did not get 2 pounds of crab, fine whatever they had an off day and rushed and skipped measuring, then my crawfish was terrible, almost every single one of them was inedible. I would try to peel the tiny tiny crawfish and they wild just crumble. I eat crawfish often and am very familiar with how it should be. Both parts of my meal being problematic was hard to ignore. I spent $100 today and left hungry from lack of snow crab and inedible crawfish. I have always considered them kind of pricey but it was good so I was willing to pay. After today it will be a while until I am back. I was annoyed because when our server told the manager he did nothing. I paid $100 for bad food. I was not expecting a free meal but something. Take off $10 or here is a voucher for next time. Nope, he did nothing. I don't mind spending money, but I hate wasting money. Today I felt like I wasted it. I'm hoping this is just a one off and next time I go back I can get the quality I am use to. Truly their seasoning is above the rest. Oh I was also kind of annoyed that the last two times I have come they have not had the chicken tenders that is listed on the menu which is pretty much the only thing kids can/will eat on the menu, and they don't have cups with lids. They have high chairs so it seems like kids are welcome but nothing else to accommodate children. read more

Saw on the good reviews and was really excited to order from this place...turned out to be a huge disappointment. Garlic butter seasoning and potatoes were good but that was it. More than 2/3 of the crawfish were super tiny (I've been eating crawfish since the season kicked in but these were way too tiny!) dead, all black and tasted sick. My stomach started hurting so I stopped. The Louisiana seasoning was EXTREMELY SALTY! Like salt only. My husband likes salty food and he couldn't even bear it. Never again at this place. read more

Pretty good bugs! Nice clean place in shady part of town, but I'll definitely be back! Very friendly service! Crawfish are served in plastic bags only one garlic sauce flavor but you can get it in mild, spicy or extra spicy. I tried a pound of each, couldn't tell much difference in the heat, got 5lbs to go. Sausage was a little sour tasting, corn was pretty good, not frozen. Quiet, clean place in Spring Branch it's only been open a couple of weeks. Crawfish were fresh flavor was good, I just wish they would have soaked up a little more flavor from the boiling water! Go try this place, you won't be disappointed!! It's also byob! read more

Wanted to try this place for the longest since it's up the street from my home. I pre ordered and when I was arrived my food was ready. The customer service was awesome and the food was incredible. I ordered the bbq wings which I end up not pouring the bbq sauce on them because it was bland. The regular wings taste good. I order a pound of medium spicy garlic shrimp and man those shrimp was huge. I had leftovers. The sauce was the best I've tasted . I now have my go to spot when I'm in the mood for boiled seafood read more

Crab Ave seasoning (garlic & butter) was average, not as flavorful as I would've thought. Service was great though given that we were the only table at around 5 PM on a Friday. Their lemon pepper chicken wings were crisps, not greasy, but a little on the salty side. The Korean seafood noodle was a nice addition to the menu. read more

Great crawfish for a decent price! Service was great and the people here are very nice. The fries and onion rings were also delicious. The crawfish had good amounts of garlic, we got the mild and spicy batches. Be warned, the spicy batch was pretty hot but not too bad after you get used to it. You also get corn and sausage included in each bag. Another perk is that you get a plastic bib and gloves for free (some places charge for those). Overall it's a great place for food if you're on a budget. read more

Definitely my new favorite crawfish place. We ordered 10 lbs...5 lbs mild and 5 lbs spicy. If you are A true American, make sure to order mild unless you can handle actual spicy lol. The sauce is so addicting and I kept wanting more and more. Ask for Udon noodles while you are halfway done with the crawfish!!! You won't regret it. They bring out the noodles and tell us to mix it in the crawfish sauce and it was soooo good. I can't wait to go again tonight to try the wings there. Super excited this place opened up near my work. read more

Awesome Place!! Small hole in the wall place w GREAT food at a reasonable price. I was craving some Crab legs so I looked up best crab legs in area. TruLucks came up and a couple other pricey spots came up. Then this one popped up and I was like oh well, lets try it. My sons and I pulled up and we looked at each other and said well, lets try it. So glad we did. It was spicy Good, lots to choose from. Totally worth it! read more

The Dungeoness crab and the wings were delicious. We inhaled our food before taking a picture but we received a nice amount of crab and it was full of flavor. Our food came out hot and our server was amazing. We were not fans of the crawfish but we will return to try more things. read more

Walked in it was fairly empty but that didn't discourage us. We got the seafood boil combo with the garlic butter which was super flavorful. The spice levels were accurate and the spicy is definitely spicy and flavorful as well. The waiter was good and attentive. All around good experience and great price for the amount of food we received will be returning! read more

Yummy seafood in a bag! I am from California so I've been to a lot of crawfish restaurants (like Boiling Crab) but this is by far my favorite. Their staff is nice and friendly. I ordered a pound of shrimp with corn and added udon later and it was sooo good. Udon noodle was a great addition. I'm definitely coming back for more! read more

Crab Ave - A pound of shrimp with potato and corn :) so good and juicy! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

Noodles mixed with boiled seafood sauce is so good! Got a couple pounds of crawfish with extra spicy garlic butter sauce and a side order of plain noodles. I mixed the noodles in with the sauce from the bag and the flavor was awesome. Also the crawfish and sauce tasted really clean and fresh. Some might think that's a weird description, but if you've tasted not so fresh crawfish, you can appreciate when it is. Also the waitress was really nice and made good suggestions. And CLEAN RESTAURANT read more

Crab Ave was a pretty good find. It's tucked away on the corner of kempwood and blalock. We ordered 2 lbs of crawfish (you can choose from mild, spicy, or very spicy,) we opted for the spicy with extra garlic, corn, and red potatoes. (Corn and potatoes are 60 cents a piece.) The potatoes didn't soak up the sauce very well, however, the corn did. The sauce and seasoning was a sweet-citrus taste, with a hint of spicy for the after taste. We did order put in an order for wings (sweet and spicy) and enjoyed it very much. Crawfish: 4 stars Wings:5 stars On the plus side, the owner-cook came out to greet us. We will definitely come back and try the different seafood and wings that they offer. read more

I love that we have a new crawfish place in the neighborhood! The crawfish were​ served in a bag with metal trays. The garlic flavor was strong and tasty on these crawfish. The crawfish were all sizes ranging from small to jumbo, with the majority being a good size. The mild flavor still had a kick and the corn that I got was still to spicy for me, but I'm a wimp. The onion rings were really good, as we the fries and fried shrimp that we got the kids. We'll definitely be back! read more

The service here is amazing. I lucked up on this restaurant searching for crabs in the memorial city area. First off the manager is very nice and greets you upon walking in the door. The place is small with a few tv's but it is very cozy. They serve Mexican sodas which are favorites of mine. I love any soda that comes in a glass bottle. It just elevates the experience. But yes we ordered 2 lbs of shrimp and two clusters of crab in their garlic butter sauce. The sauce was great especially on the crabs. The only thing I didn't like about that shrimp was the amount of poop they had in them. It seems as they could go about cleaning them a different way. Other than that, everything else was splendid. We left full. We also prefer them lemon pepper wings which were pretty tasty. read more
