My family and I went in when it just opened so we were seated quickly. The owner was accommodating with our request for hot water for our dad and making sure we have an open spot for a wheelchair. We got the chicken pho, gumbo, smother catfish in etouffee sauce, and fry basket with catfish. I got the baked mussels and etouffee for myself. My dad love the pho and ate everything and enjoyed most of the catfish fry basket. My siblings enjoyed their meal. Although the gumbo looks a little watery for what it should be but my sister said it was delicious and not spicy. The etouffee was good and spicy. It was a fairly thick sauce with loads of crawfish and rice. The baked mussels were definitely fishy for my taste so assumed they were frozen and thawed out for cooking. read more

Delicious!!! Husband wanted pho for lunch and I wanted something else... this was a perfect compromise and the food was good. Really good. The place had a good stream of customers and was clean and staff were nice and patient. We ordered the chicken pho: 10/10, shrimp and chicken combo rice: 10/10 and Cajun chicken wings: 8/10 (not spicy, but the Asian/cajun dipping sauce is. Nice surprise. read more

I've visited this location twice, once with my boyfriend and today with my mother. I also have ordered take out here several times too. So this review is a combination of my experiences in terms of consistency of the food, service and the differences between take out and dine in orders. The gumbo is definitely better in person, although they did forget my order and I think they gave me a larger portion for the inconvenience (going off of other pictures that reviewers submitted and from my previous take out experience). I definitely agree that there should be more spice to it and I added some of the fresh jalapeño from the plate my mom received from her pho which perfectly added the spice that I was looking for. The gumbo is pretty generous in terms of all the meats and vegetables included with it. However, if you order take out then the rice amount they give is very small compared to dining in. The pho here is pretty decent for the pricing as I believe it is the second cheapest place to get pho in Federal Way (Pho Trang being number one). I appreciate that they let you choose your meat and not take up more menu space with different combinations, which often don't include some preferences. My mom ordered tendon and brisket but they forgot the tendon, but brought it out with soup which was appreciated greatly. I have had the cajun pho and it was pretty good with generous portions of the toppings included. The boils here are pretty good, they have a great sauce that goes with it and the prices are pretty fair in comparison to other boils. I have tried their mild and medium so far and they hit each note perfectly, I have yet to try the spicy but I do want to in the future. I also have ordered their vermicelli noodles, springs rolls, and cajun fried rice which are all great as well! I love the crispy roll in the springs rolls and they do not skimp out on the shrimp. The service here can be a hit or miss. When I visited with my mother, the server even admitted that she was doing terrible and jokingly blamed her friend (which I don't mind if you're catching up) but she never came out to check in on us or other patrons and only got up when we walked up to the counter which is where you pay for you meal once you finish. She even confesses that her husband is a better worker. I have to agree with that as when I visited with my boyfriend, the gentleman who served us and was the cashier was friendly and efficient. The interior of the restaurant is nice, however I do think they should consider some remodeling as the booth seats are worn and had rips. I do think that power towels being offered at each booth is nice especially for those going for the boils. Overall, it is definitely a mixed review as the service can bit a hit or miss, the interior could definitely get some updates, and the food quantity is definitely better for dining in. read more

Last meal of our trip was at Crazy Pho Cajun, a family run Vietnamese spot that specializes in Viet-Cajun cuisine. They're located in a plaza next door to ATI Physical Therapy. We dropped in on a Sunday afternoon (2:00pm) with NFL streaming on the TV. The inside has plenty of seating and food comes out quickly. Menu consists of appetizers, pho, banh mi, teriyaki, fried rice, bun, rice plate, cajun and cajun boiled seafood (by the pound). - Herbs - bean sprouts, basil and lime wedges. - Cajun pho (P5) ($14.95 USD) - andouille sausage, crawfish and shrimp. We opted for medium spicyness. Broth had a subtle heat with a touch of sweetness. Mix of meats were tasty. - Gumbo ($13.95 USD) - delicious, comforting stew that wasn't heavy. Wanted more rice but tasty. Wish they had Viet-Cajun options back in Canada. read more

I've gotten a few things off their menu. Some I like, some not so much. Fried rice - the rice felt a bit undercooked and hard. The dish was overall too salty for my liking. I ended up taking my leftovers home and soaked the beef pieces in water to calm down the saltiness. Maybe it was an off day, but that was my one experience and I haven't ordered it yet since. Pork bahn mi - recommend! I love the texture and fluffiness of the baguette, and the flavor balance is overall good. I will say, not quite the best bahn mi I've had, but it gets the job done when I crave it. Shrimp spring roll - refreshing, light, and simple. Nothing to rave about. Thai iced tea - could be a little less sweet, but I'm also known to prefer my foods/drinks to be not too sweet. Good afternoon pick-me-up though. The staff is very friendly, always smiles and waves hello if I walk or drive past them. Spacious restaurant too. read more

been going to them for a few months now and absolutely love the place. Quick service and makes sure you are well fed. The food portions are just right! So far was able to try their bahn mi, fries, and seafood pho - and let me just tell you it is all delicious! Offer both take out and dine-in, and don't worry if you can't drive over cuz they are also on doordash! read more

It's a casual dinning spot run by the owners. Don't expect them to read your mind. If you want something, ask for it. Be specific. The cuisine itself are two very distinct, unique flavors that complement each other very well. We had the cajun bombs, Cajun Bah Mi, Beef Bah Mi and the Cajun pho. The Cajun bombs are similar to a beloved fried wonton but its uniqueness of Cajun flavor is new and distinctive. Our Bah Mi's were perfection. The bread was soft on the inside, crunchy on the outside and their pickled vegetables had the ideal crunch. The Cajun Pho Little bit a Cajun, little bit of pho. You can def tell their traditional pho is prominent in the broth and when they add the Cajun spice you get the best of both worlds. A meal you won't Pho Get! read more

Awesome food and great family own business. If your craven for some Cajun; you have to check out there Cajun dishes.

Always great food and great service. Who wouldn't want crab and pho at the same time.

The best!! I live in Seattle and I'm always down to make the drive to federal way for their Cajun pho. I've heard good things about their seafood boil as well and can't wait to come back and try it. Me and my mom came to dine in and I wanted to try the Cajun pho, and being a pescatarian, it's hard to find a restaurant that serves vegetable broth. I was surprised I was able to get the Cajun pho with vegetable broth and now I'm hooked! The broth was good and spicy and there was a lot of shrimp and crawfish in it. read more

Went here years ago on a friend's recommendation. Our family loves this place! We have been going for years. We moved to Puyallup last year and we still drive up to Federal Way to eat here. Great food and wonderful staff. read more

My wife had a few flies in her pho, the owner didn't apologize and just took the pho from us and still charged us for it!

The gumbo here is delicious! However, the last time we ordered, they were very skimpy on the shrimp and crawfish. Hopefully just a fluke.

My family and I recently ate here. The food was decent. We got the shrimp fried rice, chicken wings and fries. I got the brisket pho and also chicken gizzards. The chicken gizzards were a bit too greasy but they tasted good and the pho broth was delicious. I didn't really like the noodles for some reason they were kind of chewy. The fries were nice and crispy and so were the chicken wings. My boyfriend also got the Po' boy sandwich which he says was good!! All in all the food was decent! But I honestly doubt that I or my family will be coming back. It's one of those type of places were once was enough! The service was good. It's a family owned business so they all work together to take care of the place. The ambiance was shabby/chic. read more

I tried the Cajun Fried Rice (3 stars)... It was soooo yummy! I also got the Thai ice tea , Cajun Wings and Fries.. I've come now 3 day in a row & ordered the same thing lol... The service was also top tier and the food came out pretty quick SN *I prefer my Cajun Fried Rice with no shrimp* (it's pictured but after the first time I got no shrimp). read more

The Cajun/Vietnamese menu was a fusion that I've never seen before. As someone who lived near New Orleans, I can now see the parallels in the dishes. Everything tasted great with generous portions. They've got the good sriracha on the tables, which I appreciate. The establishment was clean and small with plenty of cozy booths. It's a great spot to dine in or get take-out. read more

Decent food for the area. My friend suggested this place and I was intrigued because I hadn't had much Cajun food before, let alone Cajun x Viet. I tried the Cajun vermicelli based on old Yelp reviews and it was okay. Medium spicy is a good level if you have decent tolerance. It was flavorful with the shrimp/crawfish/sausage and I appreciated the slivers of mango. However, nothing mind blowing. The server was quite friendly! read more

I remember going to this place many, many years ago. Before I was on yelp even. I recall it being great and I had wanted to go back but just never got around to it. Well, we finally made it back recently and boy, not anything I remember. In fact, just kind of meh. While it's not terrible and prices are good, it's just all kind of bland and for cajun, I would expect a lot more flavor, spice, and homemade items on the menu. Most of the deep fried things are frozen restaurant supplier provided items or at least that's what it tastes like. My husband seemed happy with his Pho, but there are so many other Pho places that this one just doesn't stand out like I remember it to. read more

We tried different dishes and loved the Cajun fried rice and mussels. The sampler appetizers were good too. read more

Update: Back again for the seafood boil finally. It was a huge portion and enough for another meal. I didn't get how to order the items and she didn't seem patient enough to explain so I got a pound of shrimp and a pound of crab. The sign on the door and the menu also say 9 so I am unsure why they told me 8 the last time I called for an order unless they ran low on product. *** Etouffe was delicious. I've tried to go back twice since but the posted time online is wrong. They close at 8. So sucks they aren't a late night option for the work week, or weekends especially. Waiting to try more but glad to know there is a good Cajun seafood spot around. read more

The Cajun Crawfish Pho was truly one of the best things I've had all year. Totally unique and it feels a family operation with a lot of years of cooking experience behind the menu. The type of place that families with Southern roots will have their weekly get-together lunches. Looking forward to checking out more of the menu soon. read more

First review, been going ten years but have loved it since the first year. Not authentic 'pho' flavors but everything else you could ever want from pho and cajun food. Really really really amazing! read more

Bomb! Not just the food but the staff as well! They have so many options! Not just Pho but also Cajun dishes. Crawfish, Gumbo, fried rice! Everything! I had Fried Rice and a Strawberry Faygo! Nice sized portions. Fast and friendly service! Was struggling to get top off of bottle and the server swooped in and saved the day! My boyfriend had the PHO with Filet Mignon, he's hooked! The establishment is large and clean! Def can't wait to go back and try other options! read more

The food is ALWAYS amazing I always get the Gumbo but today I also got the boil with crab and crawfish and it hit the spot!!! Great place to go for a quick lunch and meaningful dinner. The Owner is also so sweet and was happy to see me and my boyfriend again when we came back. We plan to try to come back on sundays :) Thank you for the wonderful experience! read more

Omg! Seriously the best pho I've had since moving here 4 years ago from Seattle. The Cajun pho needs no additional sauces and can be eaten by itself - its SO good. Their cajun fried rice and fried chicken is also delicious. We took our whole family here the next week to try it out and they all loved it too. Would recommend them to everyone. read more

Our order was placed from door dash. They need to fix a few things on their menu. The rice plates don't come with the shrimp paste, the red bean rice is no longer on the menu (very disappointing), and their "Cajun" Wings has nothing Cajun about it. Our food was very mediocre. We got the grilled beef plate and the Korean bbq plate. Pretty bland food. My grilled beef really does not have any flavor to them. We might give it another try and go in there to try their food (which I don't know if it would make a difference). read more

A patient mentioned this place several times to me and finally decided to drive out to try. Long story short, I AM GLAD I DROVE OUT TO THIS RESTAURANT. I love pho and by far the Cajun twist to pho was EXCELLENT! Just the right amount of spice to enjoy the flavor and at the same time get a "detox". Lol also the environment and customer service was super chill yet attentive to what the customer needed (felt like I was going home for dinner). I even ended up ordering the gumbo and po'boy sandwich to go with full confidence that I will have a good late night snack based on the great quality of the Cajun Pho. I'll be driving out again especially since its the winter. :) read more

Could have been 5 stars but service was not bad per se but I felt as if server was annoyed that I came in interrupting their cell conversation. Also seemed bothered when I wanted extra time to look at menu. Spring rolls and sauce probably beat I've tasted. The veggie sandwich with todo also was really good. read more

This place has the unique version of cajun style pho. I really like it. I also have tried their broiled style crawfish too. 2lbs minimum and I still finished it. They don't really have different type of flavors to choose from but it is still really good. Never been there when the place is packed so there is always parking there. 4 star for the really slow service but nice. All the times I was there, there usually isn't a lot of people so I think service should be faster. read more

This place was very meh. Inside of the restaurant was Customer service is subpar, no greeting when we walked in and didn't know if had to seat ourselves. Food was disappointing as well I got a extra spicy large Cajun pho with no shrimp; there was barely any crawfish even though I didn't get shrimp. The broth had barely any spice or Cajun flavor, my partner got the Cajun rice plate it was okay it had decent flavor but the portion was pretty small. We also got the sampler plate with chicken wings, jalapeño poppers, fries and fried mushrooms, don't even bother with that one it was all frozen garbage. I would go back if they put a little more care into things but it was all very lackluster. read more
