Large, fairly easy to peel, end of season crawfish.
Jeanne P.

We at the very end of crawfish season (they'll end their sales on Sunday here). Some friends really wanted a crawfish fix before leaving on a trip, so we researched some prices in the area, and by far, these were the most reasonable. We added some potatoes to the order. Service was quick and friendly. We got home and dug in. For end of season crawfish, they were still pretty sizeable, not too hard to peel, and not too tough. There were a few in there that maybe hit the point where they were past their prime, but man, so many great ones! I don't know who they harvest through, but they're a great source! They were spiced perfectly. It was the best crawfish to end the season with!!!

We've been sampling our way through the available boiled crawfish to go around Baton Rouge I-10 area. So far this mobile trailered operation on Perkins has hit it out of the park for us. I stopped over about 5pm tonight and found a fast efficient operation with a simple menu to put together a quick dinner selection and run home with it. The transaction and handover to take home took less than 5 minutes. The crawfish were well seasoned, immediately getting our attention. (I eat daily spicy food involving jalapeño and Serrano peppers) These crawfish items immediately got our attention. Together with the corn and potatoes, it was a great spicy meal. So far this business has provided the best crawfish yet for us in Baton Rouge. Great job!

Came back to BR for a few days and of course I had to get me some crawfish.. So I was in search for a new place that was a little closer to me and I came across this fantastic place. This place sits on Perkins Rd in the same lot as Purple Cow Across from Trader Joe's and I was a little skeptical since this was a mobile thingymajig and from recent bad experiences in Memphis with crawfish.. but omg this place made up for it.. I've gotten a little better with determining how I like my crawfish and these are Def better than Capital City. However I think this place is in comps with Prescott's grocery. ( My nose was running eating those mudbugs and that's what I want!) I only got 1lb Of crawfish and oh my do I regret not getting more! They were nice n hot! The spicy level was amazing my lips were slightly burning. My nose wasn't running but OMG they still tasted amazing and weren't salty AT ALL! A few of them were on the small side but I'm cool with that because I thought the flavors made up for the size. I will definitely be a return customer. Is there a way for me to get them extra spicy?

Best crawfish in the city! If you need some crawfish that makes your nose run but you still wanna eat, this the spot for youuu

Ask the Community - Crawfish on the Geaux

I'm planning to order on waitr and the only info it has about the boiled crawfish is the price which is 7.29 but is that per pound or per a different amount?

That's per pound. I came by last week to pick up and it was almost 7$ a pound.

Do note I live in Los Angeles, so we don't typically get crawfish boil readily and at $5.

Sammy Crawfish King delivers a decidedly unapologetic expression of South Louisiana crawfish…read moreculture, defined above all by its bold, generous hand with seasoning and its refusal to dilute flavor for the sake of restraint. The boil arrives assertive and deeply seasoned, the kind of profile that signals confidence in both product and audience, and easily ranks among the more memorable interpretations in the city. Crawfish, as a cornerstone of South Louisiana dining, is treated here with the expected reverence, but also with a spirited intensity that leans into indulgence rather than subtlety. The atmosphere mirrors this approach, playful, energetic, and full of personality, while service remains casual, friendly, and in step with the informal rhythm of the experience.

I loved the way this place was decorated, the inside looked super nice and had a really good vibe…read more Definitely a 10/10 on the atmosphere and setup. But the customer service honestly threw me off a little. It was my first time there trying something new, so of course I had a few questions, but the cashier acted like I was bothering her just for being curious. That kinda killed the experience for me. Now the food itself actually looked pretty good, so I can't fully judge the menu yet. The only thing I ended up ordering was one of their sauces, and honestly... it just wasn't it for me. The taste felt off and I wasn't really feeling it. I probably would've stayed and tried the actual food, but with the attitude and overall customer service, I just didn't even feel like sitting down and eating anymore. Hopefully it was just an off day, because the place definitely has potential.

And the fact…read morethat you have that much time on your hands to TEXT yourself imposing as someone else trying to prove a point how "clean" your establishment is, is ridiculous and absurd!!! And shows how disgusting your place of business really is. SEE UPDATED PHOTOS BELOW! On March 23, 2025 I purchased crawfish from B&T seafood and was absolutely horrified to find a hair scrunchie with actual hair still tied to it mixed in with my food. This is beyond disgusting and completely unacceptable. It raises serious concerns about the establishment's hygiene, food safety, and overall cleanliness. What made this situation even worse was how the business responded. When I brought this to their attention, they showed no concern, no accountability, and no professionalism. Instead of apologizing or offering any type of resolution, they responded with dismissive, passive-aggressive remarks, essentially telling me I'd be "surprised" by the things people find in food--as if a scrunchie with someone's hair in it is a normal or acceptable occurrence. I am disgusted, disappointed, and frankly, traumatized by this experience. Not only was my food completely inedible, but the business also refused to acknowledge the severity of the issue. They have made no attempt to resolve this--no refund, no apology, nothing. Their lack of basic hygiene and their unprofessional attitude make it clear that they do not value their customers' health or trust. I am filing this complaint because this business needs to be held accountable for its negligence. A hair scrunchie in food is not a small mistake--it is a serious food safety violation that should never happen in any restaurant. I expect this matter to be addressed immediately. I urge the BBB to investigate this establishment, as their complete disregard for cleanliness and customer safety is deeply concerning. No one should have to go through this kind of experience when purchasing food.

I also ordered the Shrimp & Artichoke Dip and it was served piping hot with homemade house fried tortilla chips. I devoured it and loved every bite. Last, but not least I enjoyed the Crawfish Spoonbread. It is a must-try! The restaurant is noisy so if you are looking for a quaint and quiet spot this is not for you. Casual atmosphere. I will definitely be back when I am in Baton Rouge.

They are conveniently located on Government Street near the Garden District. There's parking out front and in the side. Their seafood options include boiled crawfish is season, and these are very good indeed. I find their fried catfish excellent as is their shrimp. In a recent visit, my friend had them make her a blackened shrimp and blackened alligator plate as her combo and I was jealous! I recently tried their BBQ as I usually get seafood and was very pleasantly surprised. The ribs were really outstanding. While the main courses are always the star of the show, their sides need to be discussed as well. My favorite is probably the cabbage which is sautéd till crisp tender. The beans and rice could be a main course, but are excellent as sides. Cornbread tops off the meal.
