Good food. Good people. It's our go to! Love the gumbo and fried shrimp and fish plate. Oh yes tamales a hit!

This place is one of many Cajun/seafood staples in NOLA. Fish market up front, restaurant in the back. Great place to go right before heading to the airport to enjoy one more fantastic meal before leaving town. read more

Kenner Seafood - Fresh fried shrimp plate - Seafood Near Me - Kenner, Louisiana

We've never eaten here since we live out of state, but We've order live crawfish with Ms. Penny a few times & we are never sad!

A gem in Kenner. I can't believe I drove by here for two Weeks without knowing that this place existed. The lines are long on the weekends and there is a bit of wait at any time of the day but man is it worth it. We got the raw oysters and charred oysters. I usually like charred more but here, it was a bit too buttery. But the raw were fresh and just so good. And their cocktail sauce has a really good kick to it. They have Dungeness crab deals on Monday and it was great! I also got the blackened redfish with fries and Mac and the seafood platter. They were all sooo good. Trust me - it is worth the wait. read more

My wife ordered the seafood salad. I sat there and literally watched her spitting out crab shells and shrimp feelings with every bite. When she asked for manager, the most rude person came to our table and refused to do anything. She said that my wife should have said something after the first bite. She said my wife had eaten to much of the food. I asked her how my wife was supposed to know without trying to eat her salad. Had a plate of crab shells and shrimp peels that my wife had spit out. She told us that the crab meat didn't come from there. I told her it didn't matter where it came from, they were still responsible because they were serving it. Never going back here again! read more

WORST experience ever!! Reserved patio for 30 senior citizens a month in advance and even though reservation was clearly on the book, owner told staff to place another group there and put our group in the middle of their VERY NOISY MAIN RESTAURANT. Staff was not at all accommodating. WE WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN!!! There are lots of places that serve good seafood. Most people traveled over an hour away, only to be treated so poorly. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!! read more

Super good food and service , place was packed but we were served quickly. Lots of seafood to pick from , menu has two sides full of seafood only lots to choose from. Will go back great prices too . They have fresh to take home too if you want . read more

worst seafood joint I've ever had the crawfish was full of these little bugs I understand one or two but they had about 20 and the crawfish was dirty and the blooming onion had raw dough batter wasn't fully cooked read more

Oysters were delicious! I wish it was something they shipped. I'm ready to get on a flight right now to have more.

The customer service at this location was awful. I stood in this lady face for over 10mins before she acknowledged me and told me she'd be with me shortly. Then this is a busy restaurant no way in hell they should be charging the customers 3% for using their credit card. Then I had to ask because it's not listed no where in the restaurant and on the receipt it just says 3% charge. Count me out. I won't recommend this place at all. Unless you like being treated rudely. And the only reason I didn't walk out and ask for a refund was because I was already behind going to work. Otherwise I was have left. But do yourself a favor and when you see this restaurant don't even stop. Keep going read more

The food here is gross! The cook failed to season any of the food and everything was wet and the breading was falling off. The manager absolutely failed to correct the issue. Do not be fooled this is not a taste of what Orleans has that's why it's in Kenner. read more

They did it again! Best boiled food in the city! As always our waitress was great and service was fast. read more

Not sure if the ownership has changed but the food is horrible and the service ain't much better. I believe that today was my last visit to this place. Thanks for the diarrhea though! read more

Was so excited to try this place and was hungry. The water was great! The Pinot Grigio wine was sweet, but I was afraid to send it back for fear that I'd never get another glass of wine. Staff must have been short handed. Every waitress seemed spotty with service. My appetizer appeared moments before my entree. The order was half correct, but again I was afraid to send it back. The seafood itself was good and was hot. The green beans and corn were unseasoned. I noticed other customers reaching for the salt and pepper shakers frequently, as did I. I had to ask for cocktail sauce, but it was tasty once it arrived. Overall disappointed. I'm here from Central TX, for a few days, but won't come back here. read more

After the last few times we ordered to go we didn't think we'd come back. But my son requested this after an award ceremony so we came. I think after this visit we'll start being regulars again but we will never order to go anymore. Moving on, the fried catfish is delicious as are the onion rings and fried pickles we got as appetizers. The jalapeño hush puppies were really good, services was decent. Food took 20-30 minutes and they weren't that busy. They forgot my son's side dish and when I mentioned it she said she'd just add some to another kids and they could share. No- they need what they ordered and what I'll be charged for. The shrimp were the special $15 for 18 shrimp and a side. They were really good. The poboy was so so. The crab cakes got left untouched there they tasted spoiled, all of us had the same feeling so my son just ate half of mine. The best thing we got was the pork chops though! A tad salty but absolutely delicious, cooked perfectly and a huge portion for the price. We all loved it. Overall, especially compared to the other local seafood restaurants in Kenner - this was cheaper and better tasting in our opinion read more

Informal setting, but the service and food was excellent. A retail fish shop in the front of the restaurant and a nice informal eatery in the back of the place. The prices were very reasonable. I had fried artichoke hearts that were breaded and delicious. I also had shrimp & corn chowder, which I highly recommend read more

Let me tell you...I have heard quite a bit about this place. The first time I wanted to go, there was a line leading out the door. So, per my current life (AKA stay inside and order food to eat between study breaks), I ordered some food via delivery app. I ordered the stuffed redfish, spicy potatoes, and steamed green beans. I was not disappointed at all. The entire order was simple but delicious. The green beans had a nice, mild flavor. The potatoes were nicely fried and actually had a spicy kick. The stuffed fish THOUGH...really, really nice job on this. I was not expecting it to taste as well as it did because I assumed their efforts mainly went toward boiled seafood. However, I was really satisfied. The redfish was SLIGHTLY dry, but not enough to ruin the fish or the entree itself. It was seasoned really well--not spicy, but seasoned well. The stuffing is what sold me though. It's sweet with a mild kick that has a trace of crabmeat (at least to my taste palate). The consistency is thick. I'm excited to try more fofrom this place, but I honestly want the same meal the next time. Lol. Update: the boiled seafood is delicious!! Very well seasoned. But a fan of their boiled potatoes but everything else was really good. read more

I like the catfish if it's not over cooked. The homemade coleslaw is fabulous as is the mac & cheese. I don't like Cajun spice on anything especially seafood, so I haven't had anything else. Service is always good! If it's a busy night though, that place can be very noisy! read more

Amazing food. Great service, never a bad choice when you go eat here! Best seafood around

Yummy, yummy, yummy, I have crawfish in my tummy and I feel like eating it, lol. I came in here looking for Crawfish. I absolutely love crawfish but had been disappointed as of late but this restaurant rocks the craw! Oh my word. So good. I got two pounds and happily ate my eat through them. My mouth was spicy and happy at the end. I got a bowl of seafood gumbo which was good but not to my liking. There is a debate in Louisiana as to whether gumbo is a soup or stew. I prefer stew but this was a soup. But keeping this in kind, their gumbo - soup was delish. I saw chunks of seafood in the soup. But for me, gumbo requires chucks of okra and beans, etc. But like I said, it varies by person. And it was delicious. read more

Several of the locals recommended this place to us. We were not disappointed. Large portions and friendly service.

Great my mom works there so good she bought it home for me so I know how much I love it

Kenner Seafood - Me in front the patio after a long flight waiting on my food! - Seafood Near Me - Kenner, Louisiana

I entered Kenner seafood for crawfish. I asked if they were hot I was told they were room temperature. I ordered sausage to only be told I would need to warm it when I arrived home. "Sir, I'm going to the park to eat my crawfish. No thank you." He bags the crawfish and I pay to only walk outside and put my hand in the bag ice cold crawfish. I return and stand in the ordering area, no one in front of me and a lady asks if she could help the next customer. I walk up and a Caucasian lady in O orange emerges from what seems to be the poker room and says "I don't need to be helped" and darts the door. The same lady that I'm standing in front of leaves me there and goes around the counter and out the door behind this lady as if I'm not standing there. The gentleman who he initially served me steps in and listens to my concern but doesn't act surprised offers to drop my crawfish in the water. My phone rings and I tell my friend of my encounter as the worker who left me standing gazes at me in disgust. I politely stared back and waited on my order. She critiqued the gentleman on how he was placing the crawfish in the bag. He conformed to her way. The only pleasant considerate employee was the young Hispanic bilingual young man whose acknowledgment of all customers should be taught to the older employees. Customer service matters. He's the only reason for my 1 star rating. The crawfish were very flavorful. However, I will use Fisherman's Cove from now on. read more

Pros: - Fresh seafood - Friendly staff Cons: - Gummy deep fried items - Under seasoned and under salted deep fry items - Longer than quoted wait times for to-go - Small to-go portions We were in the mood for some fried shrimp, and Kenner Seafood was one of the places still open that offered it. So, we went ahead and called to order 2 fried shrimp and crab cake boxes to-go, both with spicy corn, one with fried jalapeno hush puppies and one with fried potatoes. The lady on the phone was nice and quick with getting the order together, and told me it would be ready in 10-15 minutes. We showed up about 15 minutes later, and went to the counter. There was some kind of confusion from the people ahead of us, so they were handling that. That was about 5 minutes. Then, when we got up the counter, they said they would need to go grab our order. We assumed that they would be right back, but, instead, we were told to stand to the side while they helped another group. We waited for another 10-15 minutes while they pulled the order together, after which we finally got the food and left. When we got back to our hotel, we opened the boxes. It all smelled and looked fine, but the portions were a bit small for the price. Unfortunately, seems how to-go orders work with their portions just about everywhere. We would have been fine if the food was good. Both our orders came with tartar sauce, which was the only thing that saved the meals. Everything was so bland - no seasoning and not enough salt. Even the hot corn, which did have some Crystal hot sauce on it and was the only moderately salted item, only tasted like mushy corn and heat - not any spices (3/10 rating). The shrimp were firmly a 4/10 of fried shrimp between the lack of seasoning, decent breading (though slightly gummy in the middle like it wasn't fried long enough), and fresh shrimp, which isn't terrible, but definitely has some room for improvement. The crab cakes were a 3/10 with being safe to eat and using fresh crab, but the lack of seasoning, mushy texture, and wonky, oil-saturated deep fry on them left a lot to be desired. The potatoes were okay (4/10 among fried potatoes), but then being unseasoned and with a weird texture wasn't my favorite. The jalapeno hush puppies were the best thing, maybe a 6/10, for having some flavor and being fully fried. To this restaurant's credit, with waiting there, we got to see what people were usually ordering. It seems like most people order boiled items, NOT deep fried ones, and the portions we could see people getting inside the restaurant were pretty generous. I can't speak to their in-house experience and overall ambiance ourselves, but definitely do not recommend their fried items. read more

Service was excellent. Food was hot and very good. Oysters in the half shell are delicious.

Met some out of town friends here tonight and discovered a solidly good seafood spot in a city where "good seafood" is all over the place and as a result standing out is hard to do. I wanted to do 3.5 stars but Yelp doesn't yet allow for that sort of subtlety in your ratings. Had the jalapeño hush puppies which were tasty and a little compact and dense. The Mac and cheese was nicely done even if a little understated. I wanted a cheese with just a little more punch to it. The fried butterfly shrimp was my favorite. Would definitely have that again! Good service, nice atmosphere, the Jazz Fest posters everywhere were very impressive, and the price was easy in the wallet. Good spot! read more

Oysters on the half shallow were very fresh and very large. The straight horseradish there is very hot. But I enjoyed it. The crawfish were decently seasoned. Not the largest size but this hasn't been a good year for crawfish. Service was excellent. didn't have to wait long for my food, that was a good thing since I was on my lunch break. Definitely would come back. read more

10/10 recommend! On your way into the city, it's a must-stop! My family and I have been coming here for as long as I can remember. I was so happy to see it survive Katrina and keep on thriving. If we're going to Nola for anything, we usually plan our trip around a Kenner pitstop for lunch or dinner before whatever else we're going do (unless it's on a Sunday). If you want authentic Louisiana seafood, look no further. Sure it also operates as a seafood shop, so the atmosphere isn't the fanciest, but it's so good. I've brought many people here to eat and none have been disappointed. Recommendations: boiled crawfish, fried crab fingers, crabmeat au gratin, crawfish blooming onion, cajun potatoes. read more

Been here a few times in the past few years and always satisfied. Most recent visit, crawfish boil is $8/pound. I don't eat onions much but I like their onion blossom. The mushrooms in the boil was a little too salty for me. The sausage is a little spicy and I think it's flavorful. Chargrilled oysters ($13, half dozen) not bad but I rather just get the raw oysters for $9. Service was good, food took some time but it was worth the wait as they were busy and I was hangry. $4 wine ain't bad either. Can't wait to come back for more in a few months when those crawfish gets bigger. They're closed on Sundays and ~3% surcharge for credit cards. read more

Chicken Parmesan had a little bit of spice and good. Big portions. 1 1/2 dozen fried shrimp were fried to perfection. The jalapeño hush puppies nicely spiced up the hush puppies. Shrimp Parmesan Food was good spiced good. Shrimp were big and needed to be cut in half to eat them. Oysters trio became a duo. Charbroiled we're good and the nacho oysters were ok. New taste. Potato salad was very tasty. Catfish was good. Baked macaroni used big pasta. Green beans were usual green beans. It was a very full restaurant. read more
