    Burnt 1 Dozen Chargrilled Oysters
    Michael H.

    Oysters were burnt and dry. Ordered twice from this place and they were good at first. Don't know what happen. The was a waist of money.

    Came here on a Sunday with some friends craving some catfish! This was the first time I'd been to this location and it definitely won't be my last! Well lit upon entering, and was greeted immediately. We got there at the perfect time, as there soon started to be a wait after we were seated. We came just a few minutes before noon, and this place was packed! We were seated and were so excited for all the things. We ordered the sampler oysters, the calamari and the lemon pepper wings. I have never had wings at any of their locations, and let me just say....from now on I will!!! They were soooo good! Whatever that batter is that they use on it, it is so crispy and crunchy, and had just the right amount of seasoning! 11 out of 10!!!! The oysters always hit the spot, and the calamari was great as well, with the coating that was on there, so crispy and crunchy!!! On to the food, I ordered the combo 1, which comes with a 1lb of crawfish, 1/2 lb of shrimp, corn on the cob and a potato, and then I added a side of sausage! I went with the garlic and cajun seasoning, medium, which was just the right amount of food. The flavor is always sooo good!!! the crawfish were a great size! The shrimp are always good, and they're so good. And the sausage!! Such a good snap on the sausage, I always look forward to it. The corn was just out of this world, cooked to perfection and perfectly seasoned. Our service was great, the server would check on us often, and there was lots of teamwork, as there are others that would come by and help bust the table, getting empty plates or trash out of our way. Great experience and will be back fa sho!

    The line is always wild at Crawfish Cafe. I think I ordered a little wrong this time, so I'm definitely giving it another shot. We started with boudin balls, and the sauce was the highlight--kind of a mild honey-Dijon mustard vibe with mustard seed and a hint of horseradish and some aïoli. My wife also loved my fried rice, which was the base of my "smack pack" (not sure on the spelling). I also ordered the seafood gumbo, a side of sausage gumbo, and garlic noodles. My entrée was good--just not great or memorable. The seafood gumbo, though, was a mess: watery, almost no flavor, and I ended up salting it heavily (and I never salt anything). The sausage gumbo was much better--richer flavor and a thicker, more satisfying consistency. The garlic noodles were tasty, too...but nothing special. My wife got the #3 boil with potatoes, crab, and big, fat shrimp, and she was happy with it. They were sold out of bread pudding, which was a bummer. One thing I thought was unique: it's Vietnamese-inspired Cajun, so a lot of the seasonings and sauces have a Vietnamese twist. And the service was excellent--my server crushed it. Food-wise, I'd call it a 3 out of 5, but the service bumps it to a 4 out of 5. I'll be back, and next time I'm ordering what everyone else seemed to be losing their minds over--the massive bowl of crawfish or a full-on giant boil.

    Love a good seafood boil spot!! This place was busy, which is a good thing but we were seated quickly. Ordered the oyster sampler, boudin balls and the 1lb crab & shrimp, all very good. Drinks are pre made but still good and service is A1. Every time we turned around someone was replenishing water or grabbing finished items off the table. It can be noisy and is a Family friendly environment but I'd def come back!!

    Had a relaxing vibe- place was full. Service was slightly slow but since it was full & the food was very fresh, can't complain. The crawfish beignets did NOT disappoint-I would get those again. I do wish they could figure out how to put the spice of the "cold" dip sauce "into" the beignets! That would knock them over the top- The crispy chicken took me by surprise-I didn't realize they would have a batter. I would not get them again-but -batter on my wings just isn't my thing. They weren't bad... Hopefully that makes since. Hubby got the boiled 3 seafood mix-I forgot to take photo- The flavor was good but, we bought mild, it was hotter than mild. Kept a burn for a while on my lips. Not sure if that's a "glitch" since we came late in the day. Maybe the water evaporated out of the pot so the pepper was stronger? But we'd go back for that too! It wasn't so hot to ruin the taste of the food.

    Combo 3

    I had never heard of Crawfish Cafe a friend recommended it for our girls night. Make sure you join the waitlist ahead of time, especially if it's a weekend night. It was PACKED and walk-ins had a 2 hour wait time. One person in our group got the smoked boudin link and said it was really good. I went with Combo 3 in Signature sauce - it was good, but I don't think it was $40 worth of food. In hindsight, I should've gotten the Smack Pack XL for an extra $5. I can't remember our server's name, but he was super helpful and patient with all of our questions

    So good!!!! Only thing I didn't like was the wait to get a table but it was worth it! The crawfish were pretty big and came out relatively quick! Our server was very attentive and friendly! The vibe of the restaurant was family friendly and welcoming! I would definitely come back! Best crawfish I've had this crawfish season!

    Crawfish Cheese Bread  Sinfully delicious

    YUM YUM YUM Did not disappoint. Y'all have to come visit these wonderful folks Started out with Crawfish Cheesy Bread = Dangerously Sinful. Omg. You gotta get some. Then we decided to split a meal of fish and shrimp with 2 sides I chose Cajun fried rice and my husband chose Red Beans and Rice. Both great choices and really great Sweet Tea We had enough for take home even after plate sharing. The service was great. And ambience was definitely family.

The crawfish had a nice spicy kick and plenty of seasoning, with enough heat to keep things interesting without being overwhelming. Definitely the reason to come here. The fried rice, however, was a letdown. It was a large portion but lacked flavor and felt pretty bland compared to the crawfish. It worked as a filler side but wasn't something I'd order again.

HORRIBLE and completely INFLEXIBLE kitchen staff - speaks ZERO English (or conveniently PRETENDS not to ...) and unable to communicate and understand the front of house service staff ... We called and wanted to make a VERY SIMPLE request to order a large SEAFOOD gumbo to go (at the OUTRAGEOUSLY overpriced cost of $9.69) ... We made a simple request to have them put the seafood on the side so we could get a full container of the liquid gumbo - and add the seafood ourselves as we desired. OTHERWISE they fill the container with so much other stuff than the liquid, we get home with almost zero gumbo liquid ... and this has happened on MULTIPLE occasions!!! ... ... which wouldn't be such an issue ... IF ... they only included SEAFOOD ... BUT!!! ... They fill the container with so much SAUSAGE, you hardly get any seafood ... SEE PICTURE! ... Above that, NOWHERE does it say on their menu that sausage is included ... That's FALSE ADVERTISING!!! ... We proceeded to order the large SEAFOOD gumbo and it should ONLY have SEAFOOD in it .... SHEESH!!! ... We get it home and it is filled primarily with sausage ... AGAIN ... We get there and asked to have it made the way we originally requested ... and the server goes to the kitchen and brings back a small container of just the gumbo liquid ... AND we find out the kitchen staff / owner (?) is making HER pay for the container of liquid out of her own pocket!!! WHO DOES THAT!!!??? ESPECIALLY when THEY are the ones who didn't fulfill our original request .... she quite literally had to take out her own wallet and actually pay for OUR gumbo liquid!!!... That is OUTRAGEOUS and COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE!!! THEY are the ones who could've followed the original instructions - not her - and they have the gall to make her pay for it!!! All this to say we will NEVER return due to this level of INCOMPETENCY ... If you eat here - you've been warned! Don't waste your time or hard-earned money on this JOKE of a restaurant!!! They DO NOT deserve to even be in business with this level of incompetency and complete DISREGARD for their customers! Also see copy of receipt for validity of our complaint...

When I tell you the boxes were not even close all the way bc there was so much food in the box lol I love gizzards but these were fried a little too hard for me I like my gizzards a little more softer but still fried that's the reason for the 4 star but other than that everything was amazing! Dish was fried to perfection and wings were nice and crispy!!!! Okra was such a generous "side" as well. He gave us like 20 sauces for everything and ketchup no napkins but that's ok!

I was told they charge extra for lemon pepper. I simply asked when they started charging for it because I've never been charged before. The employee responded that they have always charged for it. When I explained that I had never been charged in the past, she told me she had been working there a long time and had never seen me before. At that point, it felt like I was being called a liar. I made it clear that I had no problem paying the charge--I was only asking when the policy changed. The issue wasn't the cost; it was the way I was treated. As a longtime customer, I didn't appreciate being spoken to that way. Because of this experience, I won't be returning, and I'll be sharing my experience with the customers and friends I've referred there over the years. I have proof of some of my past purchases and visits.
