Grilled shrimp tacos were fantastic! Erica was our waitress and she was great!!!! Very helpful with menu recommendations

We got there at 11:30 and were seated immediately. We were greeted by our waitress and were pleased with start. She did get his salad incorrect with wrong dressing but other than that it was the only thing wrong. I had the Shrimp dinner and it was delicious. I didn't care for the way shrimp was fried but the rest of my plate was great. read more

Service was great and the place was clean. However, restaurants are there because we are hungry, right? I picked this place by perusing multiple menus of seafood places in town. My husband and I were planning to be in Covington for one night; we hoped for some good Cajun seafood. We picked the Shrimp Dinner because we could get shrimp so many different ways. The Jacked Up Shrimp was excellent! The rest was very very meh. Very disappointing. I'm a state known for fabulous food, there are better options. Luckily, we found some of them before and after this mostly flavorless meal. read more

Food and service were great our waitress, Erica was wonderful! & the jacked up shrimp was awesome!!

We are very pleased to have eaten at Don's Seafood. When we walked in we were welcomed by friendly hostesses. Our server Charlene walked us to a cozy table in the corner, near the TV's just in time for the LSU game. My husband ordered Grilled stuffed Shrimp, stuffed with crab meat, Green beans , and a stuffed potato. I ordered the Stuffed Catfish, stuffed with shrimps and crab meat, green beans, and mashed Potatoes. We also had the Seafood Spinach dip. "Boy Oh Boy" the food was "totally of the Chang". Really we have never had anything like it. Nothing needed anything added too it or taken away. The Green beans were full of a smoke house flavor from the bacon. The Mashed Potatoes were so buttery. Everything was delicious. We enjoyed our meals and our server Charlene was absolutely wonderful. We will definitely be back again. Don's is a great place for a family dinner night. Loved it. read more

I am out of town for a work trip in a suburb of Louisiana - I decided to hit up Don's Seafood for dinner the evening I landed and also the evening after. Both nights I sat at the bar, and had outstanding service and DELICIOUS food ! I've never been to Louisiana before, so my first evening Alexandria and Victoria were my servers and they were super attentive and sweet ! Alexandria taught me how to eat my first crawfish EVER and also introduced me to cooked oyster (yum!!). My second evening, I had Tina. She was very nice and hospitable - always making sure I was good on my drinks and food. I highly recommend this establishment and will def be back if I happen to venture to this area of the country again ! read more

This is our third visit, and we love it here! We sit on the patio because we have a dog, and it is wonderful out there, even in June! Jeremy is a great server! We have had Char-grilled oyster, shrimp, redfish and Étouffée, along with gumbo, and it's all great!! read more

Food quality, bar tender friendliness. Strong Chili's vibe for both. Food had once frozen off taste. I came in an hour prior to closing. It was clear, the staff was ready to leave. Really confused how this has 4 stars read more

the food was AMAZING. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Dos is served traditional crawfish bisque which is so much more intricate. The Chared Oysters and shrimp salad were soooo delicious and our server Michaelah was wonderful and attentiv. thank you dons! read more

Another fabulous lunch @ Don's...oysters were the best...have been all summer...can't wait 'til they "R" in season...seafood gumbo to die for...Ciera was our waitress...one of our favs...service was outstanding...as usual...always worth the ride from Diamondhead...we love Don's-Covington. read more

I am a local and we love this restaurant, especially after mass on Sundays. The new inside and additional outside waiting areas are nice and enjoyable to visit with whoever you are with while you wait. I had the seafood gumbo today, it's one of my favorite items to order - summer or winter. I usually order a house salad on the side. Their house salad is a step above other restaurants and it helps me not to eat too many appetizes (calorie consciousness person writing this). Our service is always great, I guess we are never behind a big table. Today our server was Hailey B. She is very friendly and willing to go beyond to make sure our meal was 100%. I like that we usually sit in the same general area each time we visit and usually see the same waitstaff. It makes it seem like we know most of the servers and it's nice to get recognized. I recommend this restaurant because of all the menu items, atmosphere and service. I hesitate to say the only item I would not order is the shrimp poorboy. For a tourist this is not the traditional chewy poorboy bread and it is not loaded like others are. Everything else is 100%! read more

Delicious food 3 nights in a row! A lot of options to choose from. Paige was a wonderful server.

The food was great! Our server, Reba was even better! So attentive & such a warm smile! Thank you!

Went to Dons Seafood for the first time and we had Ms Reba as our server, one of the best servers I've had in a while and the food was fantastic!!! read more

The blackened alligator for the appetizer is fucking phenomenal. Also, if you get the ribeye, make sure you get it blackened it is really good and I enjoyed the blood orange margarita very tasty. I thought this might be a tourist trap but the food was really good. FYI only place you're going to be able to get blackened alligator because everywhere else they serve fried and if you really want to get an authentic taste of alligator and enjoy it get it blackened, not fried. read more

Not impressed at all!!!! The service was lacking and the oysters were not good at all!!!

Sorry, but was not satisfied with our meal. First time customers, the box has been checked, so we will just move on. Two stars is stretching it but we were greeted and seated really fast, hence the two stars. read more

Great drinks, great food and fantastic service! What more can you ask for when you're on vacation?! Crawfish étouffée with rice for myself and stuffed shrimp, green beans and garlic mashed potatoes for my husband tonight. Four nights ago it was catfish over rice with crawfish étouffée over the top and the seafood platter for my husband! Again great food and fantastic service! Thirty+ years ago, Don's was one of our favorite places to take people visiting us in Houston! Great restaurants can stay great! read more

The food's alright, but crawfish are way overpriced and they charged me $10 for a pint of Gnarly Barley Jucifer which is criminal theft.

Michelle was awesome! Great personality and very attentive. Make sure you ask for her if you go!!! read more

Dayna and Bryce are rockstars, it was fun to be around them. Seafood gumbo is on point, I liked the smoky flavor. Next up was grilled oysters who I had are addictive yet delicious. My meal was the filet, which was perfectly cooked med rare, with red beans. They are some of the best red beans I've ever had. I checked reviews before I came and need to say that I had none of the service issues. The whole experience was top notch. read more

The food here is absolutely wonderful. I mean like fantastic. We stopped here on the way through town and had shrimp remoulade, glazed salmon and crab au gratin. All of it delicious. Server (Judith) was inattentive, but the only reason we didn't rate 5 stars. The bartender and hostess were very friendly and I highly recommend Dons seafood. read more

This was my fist time here we were on way to Texas. I ordered the seafood platter and my wife had the marinaded blackened chicken both were excellent read more

Looking for good seafood in the New Orleans suburb and found good seafood along with great service! Food: my meal started with a cup of gumbo followed by fried catfish along with red beans and rice and finished with pecan pie which I think is the perfect southern meal! The seafood gumbo had shrimp and crab. It was good but not the best in the NOLA area. Dons served a good portion of catfish with 4 long slices. Some places serve small pieces of catfish. The red beans and rice were AMAZING! Yes, amazing. I was surprised how flavorful this beans were with chunks of ham. I ate all my beans and rice. The meal was quite big and I had a lot of catfish left over. The pecan pie was served hot but it was served in pieces. I prefer that my pie looks like a piece of pie. Service: excellent! Our server was attentive, communicative and friendly. She brought our dishes while they were still hot. Very little waiting around and she asked us twice if we needed anything while we were eating which is a decent amount of interruption. Price: my meal of catching and beans were $14 which isn't bad considering it's large size and leftovers. I posted menus with the prices so please see them for specifics. Location: suburbs of New Orleans. Dons is on a major road and has tons of parking which is perfect. Overall, I'd come back! read more

She made our visit... exquisite ...I'm really proud that I just rhymed, btw read more
