I finally made it to Krab Junkie! I went on Thursday to get the $20 Boil Pack it was so delicious. I got mild and it was the best to me, not too spicy, a great balance of season and spice. The $5 margaritas are so good, actually taste the alcohol. The cashiers are so kind and explains and describes the orders very well. Clean inside and outside. I've heard they do have live music on certain days so I definitely plan to go then. If you want a delicious boil pack go to Krab Junkie! read more

I'm sorry, this is sad. I was excited to try this place out but now I'm convinced influencers cannot be trusted. Some girlfriends and I went to patronize Krab Junkie and in the end if I could give them 0 stars, I would. When we arrived parking was a battle to say the least. Then we stood in line for over 45 minutes. I think the only reason why it wasn't over an hour was due to people leaving the line and giving up. Yet once at the counter was when things really went left. They were literally out of majority of the menu. At that point just close business for the day. Truthfully my friends and I should've left, but we wanted to support. Nonetheless scooping the scene was interesting. The kitchen area which is openly exposed you can see the food preparers on their phone, frozen bag of corn on top of a microwave, open liquor bottles on the food set up area, and just lots of health code violations left and right. Yet as an avid traveler meh imma still see it through!! Yet bruhhhh the disappointment went downhill once we got our food. My Mac n cheese tasted like clarified butter and overly used milk (no taste). Then the dirty rice was just chopped up unseasoned ground beef mixed in white rice (no taste). The cornbread tasted olddd and wasn't sweet. Y'all the collard greens tasted SWEET and so did the shrimp boil! Now I will say I liked the fried shrimp but that was it. The icing on the cake was the owners getting spicy and rude with me under the influencers comment via IG and that let me know I'll never patronize them again. Word of advice, take the criticism as feedback to do better. Not bash a customer because of their experience. read more

Listen... All I'm going to say is I had a fried catfish with dirty rice bowl that had a gravy poured over it. The catfish stayed crispy from the first bite to the last even with gravy on it, which means it was fried to PERFECTION! Go check this place out asap! read more

It's a hit or miss with this place. The seafood boil flavoring is not consistent. When I first started going it was delicious. (I would know as I would get their Junkie Platter every Sunday to host with the show Baddies and I mean EVERY Sunday) One day all of the sudden I go up there and order my platter and the pan was just full of oil, so much oil, by the time I pulled it out to serve ( the place I host at is 4 minutes away) it was just a big clump of orange butter filled halfway through the pan. I don't give up that easy lol, I figured it was just a bad day, so I didn't mention it and went back up there the next Sunday, and then it was only Paprika on it, NOTHING ELSE. Lol, my husband just ended up making his own lil sauce that I loveee, I was just glad it wasn't that clumpy mess again. Lol, yall after this I waited 2 weekends to give them a chance to get their stuff in order. So 2 weekends go by, I go back up there and get my platter, the seafood boil was EXTREMELY salty. I tried to keep eating but couldn't even finish a 2nd shrimp, it was so bad it felt like it could have kille* me. My husband grabbed the pan, and said " nuhuh babe stop eating this." He took the pan to the sink and just rinsed the entire boil down, it was THAT bad. He rinsed it down, boiled it and made his own sauce again. I really don't know what happened because this place used to be TO DIE FOR. But, unfortunately, that was the last straw and we haven't been back since. My husband and I pledged to NEVER eat there again. It's so bad, I don't even watch Baddies anymore. Lol I don't want to remember that taste. read more

First time trying this place since I love around the corner. I was so dissapointed. I ordered 3 pds of crayfish, and OMG they were so salty!!! I don't know who they have in their kitchen but they should hire someone new! Don't think I'll be trying them again read more

I really appreciate any place that has my food ready when I get there. That just makes my day. Unfortunately, the crawfish was not up to par. Maybe I caught them in a bad day or something but I was so disappointed when I finally got home and the crawfish didn't have any seasoning. Maybe I will try them again next crawfish season read more

Came in the other day... Service was good, when I came in the chick at the front was nice and attentive. I was the only customer and I ordered online. When I got back to my car I opened the bag to make sure everything was in there. I got boiled shrimp with corn, potatoes and sausage, mild. It had no flavor really. I was craving it for so long but this just didn't do it. I was so sad man.. read more

Food is always good when I eat here! The shrimp boils with their signature sauce is my go to. Check them out!

Krab Junkie - Last boudain ball and shabang sauce - Seafood Near Me - Houston, Texas

Let me start by saying that customer service is a HUGE deal to my husband and I. Before we could even get to the door someone greeted us and let us know they'd be right with us. Upon entry, we waited little to no time to be helped. Mrs. Marilyn (owner) helped us with our order and made some great recommendations for food and adult beverages. The entire place looks like they care about the upkeep and that's equally important (to me). We ended up ordering a hurricane, lime margarita, boudin balls, bowl of seafood gumbo and the catfish filets with mac & cheese. Everything was seasoned to perfection, priced fairly, and the drinks were so refreshing. My only recommendation is a different type of container for the boudin (they were so hot they melted the plastic). All in all, the drinks, and the food were definitely worth trying it out! We can't wait to go back to try their other menu items. read more

The food was horrible. The chicken strips were not cooked all the way. The shrimp had a funny taste and my fish was slimy. But the customer service with the waitress was on point. She was kind and I did not have to pay for the food I received because I did not eat it. read more

Best seafood with most affordable prices so if your in Houston in the trinity gardens area i highly suggest stopping here

If you live in, travel to or through Houston TX, a visit to Krab Junkie is a must. Don't let the size of the building fool you. The Junk is full of wonderful surprises - starting with the delish food (always makes me say Mmmm with an added stomp of my foot and a slap to my leg). But that's not it... the two outdoor patios add a wonderful atmosphere that begs for social connection, and the music will make you want to dance even if you don't. All this is possible only as a result of the inviting atmosphere created by the owners and staff. You DO want to add Krab Junkie to your visit if you're near or in the Houston area. read more

So I went here tonight with my husband and the food was great! We were skeptical cause we've never been here nor heard of it but it was local in our neighborhood. The service was fast and friendly. The shrimp was so flavorful and fresh! The tenders were crispy and juicy! So much flavor in everything! The boudin balls were also my favorite! Wasn't a fan of the mac and cheese but hey each to their own and everyone makes it different. The dirty rice was a hit as well! The outside was so cute and nice. I could only imagine during crawfish season! I am definitely going back! Can't post a picture cause it was just to good read more

My first time coming to this restaurant, although I can't give it a five star at this time. There was a live band the servers were very limited and when asked to to place an order they disappeared. An hour or two into being there waitress comes ask may I take your order? Disappears again, she finally comes back and takes the order I ordered the gumbo she brings it 30 minutes later and it not good at all, watery the sausage taste like it has been boiled forever. I tell the her "ma'am I can't eat this and didn't want it. She asked did I want anything else. I tell her no thank you and she never comes back with a refund nor brings the manager over to discuss the problem. Needless to say I left the greens sitting there didn't care for sweet greens!!!. The Fried fish and dirty rice was pleasant. Getting water is like pulling teeth and than the guy brought a baby cup and walked off. I do understand this is a new business but jeepers have things together and in order. read more
