We had a great time at Crawfish Kai! The food was delicious, and everything was cooked perfectly, not overdone at all. Our waitress was pleasant, and the entire staff worked together to make sure everyone was taken care of. There's plenty of seating inside, and parking is easy, especially if you're familiar with the area. The restaurant is clean and located in a nice area. The menu offers something for everyone, including seafood, Creole, and Cajun dishes. Pros: Great food, cooked just right Clean restaurant Friendly, helpful servers Extensive menu Nice location Plenty of parking Decent prices Cons: No oysters and a few other unavailable items, but that's okay. Overall, I would definitely come again! read more

Early crawfish season visit on a beautiful Saturday in February with family. It was a beautiful day in downtown Montgomery Texas so we decided on an afternoon visit to sit outdoors under umbrella for some crawfish. They were pretty busy so we did have a short wait for food, but not unbearably long. My daughter and son in law got 2 lbs crawfish with potatoes and Kai sauce as did my husband and I. Theirs came out pretty quickly but we had a bit longer wait. A chicken strips kids meal was also ordered for my grandson. The fries were plentiful and he seemed to enjoy. I had a glass of wine and my SIL had a frozen hurricane with waters all around and a Dr Pepper. Unfortunately, they were out of lemonade and no other juice options available for my grandson so he had to go with water. We didn't order any extra sauces for the crawfish to be tossed into as we wanted to try them as they were intended. My daughter and son-in-law's order seem to be more medium and smalls while ours was strictly smalls pill was easy. Taste was good. My daughter also ordered a half pound of boiled shrimp. They were very tasty and buttery easy peel and decent size the potatoes were tasty without being overly seasoned. The Thai sauce is a good addition to add a little more flavor. We are looking forward to coming back when the season gets a little more stable and trying different Crawfish varieties this is a great outdoor spot in our little town. read more

I wasn't sure why there weren't any recent reviews but saw an overall 4.3 so decided to give it a try. While the service was good the food was not. Tasted like everything came out jars and tins for the étouffée. I Cajun/creole flavors just very salty tomatoes no fresh bell peppers. I know you can't get live crawfish this time of year but what was used had been frozen for a long time and was chewy. Inedible dish. The "catfish" nuggets were chewy and tasted like swai (not catfish). No seasoning in the batter. Save yourself some money and time and look elsewhere for Cajun food. read more

We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and it was not very busy. We sat outside but switched tables because of a string chemical smell coming from the left side of the building. I ordered a shrimp poboy with a cup of gumbo and a sweet tea. The sweet tea was very good. The food however was very mid and bland to be considered Cajun. The fries were overly salty, the gumbo needed lots of hot sauce which it turn also made it salty and the shrimp didn't taste like anything. My friend got crawfish and ate probably one bite. The service was very slow, and our waitress while nice was very forgetful and did not check in often. They didn't even have napkins. The wait for the food was unusually long especially considering what we got. Prices were fair. Parking is limited so you will likely have to park in a parking lot near the other side of the street. We visited based on the Yelp reviews. Considering this is a small town this may actually be a considered a good Cajun place to the surrounding area, but I would not recommend or return read more

First time visiting this establishment, hubby predetermined crawfish and added a potato and sausage he said everything with his was great. I ordered the Black and Gold Poboy. It was just ok. The sandwich would of been so much better if the bread was toasted. It was impossible to pick up. The first one came out without the shrimp so I had to send it back. I will have to come back and try something else. I wasn't a big fan of my poboy. read more

Happened to find out about this place from FB. Love the name - that alone made me want to try it. lol We went on Valentine's and they sold out of crawfish around 6:30ish. We were one of the last few to be able to order. As mentioned in a previous post, the staff was attentive and friendly. They answered any question that we had with a smile. We sat outside and it was a cold night. The indoor seating has a bar and two tables, which were all occupied. Not a big deal, there were plenty of tables outside. There is a vinyl covering the deck and heaters to protect you from the wind; best of both worlds. The crawfish was tasty and the pineapple was a savory treat. Definitely going back! read more

Definitely one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. The waitress was nice and attentive. Their overflowing garbage at the front of the place stunk to high heaven. Luckily, someone came and emptied it. I ordered the half crawfish etouffee and half fried crawfish. What I got was this stewlike substance and the tiniest fried crawfish I have ever seen. I have no idea where you get crawfish like this, but I am betting it is China. Whoever owns this place has no idea what etouffee is. I have been eating and making it for decades and I have never seen or tasted anything like this disgusting meal. The place is packed most times I pass it. I told my wife it would be bad, but it was even worse than I imagined. If you appreciate New Orleans style cooking, stay as far from this place as possible. read more

I had been to to this restaurant twice before and was really looking forward to dinner with family. This was the worst dining experience ever! Server could not get orders correct and would have to be asked over and over for something. Five of us and my food came out very fast, two more orders 15 min later and the final two 30 minutes after that! The final two were redfish and were cold in the middle. Numerous apologies from the server but then she would forget to bring stuff she offered to bring, like iced tea refills. At one point she told us the problem was that management had hired teenagers in the kitchen. The entire time, a manager never came to talk to us or ask what was going on. The table behind us had problems with the same server, who gave them an inaccurate bill and then spent 20 minutes correcting it. Overall a horrible experience that felt like the kids had been left in charge. read more

The food here is so good. As far as fries goes, they have the best fries I've ever had. I probably would only do take out. It's kind of a dive and smells really fishy. A little disappointed in the crawfish. I ordered spicy garlic but all I could taste was cinnamon. I know people are adding cinnamon to their boils to add a level of complexity but please stop. That's one spice that doesn't belong in crawfish! read more

There's only a couple of indoor tables, all the people and the action and the fun is on the deck, both front and sides.

The only reason I didn't give Krawfish Kai 4 stars is because they were out of several items on their menu by the time I got there to order. So I did not get to try a few things I was hoping to try. That said, the food I got was all outstanding!! I had some fried shrimp, some crawfish etouffee, some gumbo, and the redfish entree. All were excellent and I and my family will definitely be going back!! I did takeout, but they have a pretty large patio area as well as a several indoor tables for dining, and the atmosphere is very family friendly. My only suggestion is go and go early so you hopefully get there before they run out of some items on their menu. In their defense, I went a little late on a Friday evening (toward the end of the 6:00PM dinner hour rush), and they were crowded and the staff was very busy. Definitely worth the effort if you like seafood and Cajun, Creole cuisine. read more

Got takeout. One thing my hubby noticed is all the kitchen staff are young things. The food was tasty, but both our boils were DRY. Not in a bag, not oiled, dry seasoned. Never had it that way and it made for the worst boil I've ever had. Not because of flavor, but dryness. Couldn't finish my dried out potatoes. The crawfish puppies were the best item. The fries need to be cooked a little longer. Just don't go for the boil. read more

We saw some great options ( Truth, Triple J, Killen's, and Brisket & Rice were all in the running, and we didn't try any of those so can't say on them). This was a thought out choice and I was super excited to try them! Being a family run operation was really awesome to me as well. First the good to great: the staff was super nice and helpful. The brisket was ah-mazing. Not too Smokey but cooked very tender and delicious! The barbecue sauce was on point. Sauces tend to range from too thin to too thick, too sweet to too spicy but Bar A's hit the bulls eye! Not too thin, not too sweet...I really enjoyed the brisket! Walking up, the smells were incredible! A nice outdoor spot to eat (it was a very mild day and just beautiful out..but I digress). Also, the Mac and Cheese...oh my!! Some of the best I've ever had! The downside: We drove an hour and a half especially to eat here...it was our primary reason for heading up to Montgomery! Getting there around 3pm, you would figure is a sweet spot for a restaurant open from like 11-6 on a Friday. When we went to order as we're trying to figure out the plate we want, you know, 2 meats or 3 meats ...sides, yum, as you're drooling, we were going for the TRINITY Plate. Brisket, rib and sausage...a nice cross section. Nope, we can't do a TRINITY. we only have brisket and turkey left. I know a lot of people love turkey. I'm not one of them and my heart was set on Beef. So now we're on a 1 meat and two sides track I guess. Ok, can we do brisket on the one meat? "Sure I can do that" was the cheery reply. So we got two plates brisket, and I asked could you make that moist cut brisket (my favorite, while my wife always prefers the lean). "Nope, sorry, we're all out of moist brisket". Ok, so one plate with cheesy potato casserole (doesn't that just sound amazing?) and Mac & cheese and one plate With cheesy potato casserole and pinto beans, that way we can get more great tastes and share, right? Oh, and bread, pickles, onions and jalapeños. (The bread is Martins and is always amazing if you know what I'm talking about...I think it's potato roll bread?). Got our plates and start to pay...two $20 plates and no drinks, just water. Over $50! Hmmm, well, the one meat tray with brisket has a $4 up charge. Hmmm. Sat down and got to chowing down! Here's where disappointment sets in. As I said, brisket and sauce was on point. The onions are maybe slightly pickled, not sure, but also very good. The meat, was 3 slices of brisket...4 would have been a sweet spot but eh, 3. The sides. Cheesy potato casserole had the texture of rice...I kept thinking it was rice as I ate it. It had some spice to it but very little flavor. Very disappointing. Mac & cheese--ah-mazing! Pinto beans were like a salt-a-holics take on ranch style beans. Not good. Almost not edible. But I was hungry. I put some sauce on the potato casserole and made it taste ok...still couldn't get Over the rice texture (I'm not saying it had rice, but just had the texture of a rice pilaf ). Two pieces of great bread rounded it out! So overall, disappointed that there wasn't more to choose (ribs, moist brisket, sausage) and I get it, They make so much and sell out then that's good business for them. To the customer who drove and hour and a half to eat there, not so good business. The sides were 1 for 3 in the good to great category and worst of all, after spending $50+ on lunch for 2, I was still hungry. I wouldn't have expected that for sure. I couldn't decide between 3 or 4 star but my missing stars shake out like this: 1 went because of availability and then ultimately being up charged for what was left. And 1 went for disappointing 2 out of 3 sides and portion size/value. Sorry, we didn't take any photos of the food.

Sampler Platter + 1/2 lb moist brisket added.

Tony's Italian Delicatessen

Just about the most satisfying Italian Sandwich dive that you could find in the state of Texas and…read moreit's right off Lake Conroe of all places. Walk up counter service with a menu split neatly into cold cut and oven baked sandwiches. Going with the Devito, my mind was thoroughly blown by how flavorful the red sauce and meats were all together, it had a combination of textures from the crusty bread cured cuts that made it fun to chew through every bite. My Stallone was also just such a pleasant mix of flavor with the pesto playing a bigger role on the cold cut options. This is one of the places where I feel like you can spin the wheel and get a winner with whatever fate decides. Things seem pretty easy and affordable here. Portions were pretty big here and around $12-$15 a sandwich, more than enough for a single person with some for a midnight snack later. There's a good bit of seating inside with some red gingham table clothes to eat over. It's worth the visit if your in Montgomery or after a day on the Lake!

My only disappointment was that the menu described it as coming on a crusty Italian roll, but the bread was soft with no crunch. A true crusty roll would have taken it from great to outstanding. The girl at the counter recommended getting the hot peppers so I got some on the side, and she was absolutely right--I'll definitely be adding those to future sandwiches. My husband ordered the Danza but accidentally received the Dinero. He still enjoyed it and gave it a solid 7/10. We also tried the Chicken Parmesan. It had good flavor, though it was a little too bread-heavy for my taste. Overall, the food was fresh, flavorful, and the portions were more than generous. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the menu.

I've driven past Petite Suzette in Montgomery countless times and have even parked right out front,…read morebut for some reason I never stepped inside--until our POA tasting event gave me the perfect excuse. What a mistake I waited so long to make! This place did not disappoint. We started with the fondue, and wow... rich, creamy, and served piping hot like molten cheese lava in a proper fondue pot. The toasted French bread cubes were perfectly dunkable, and that cheese has more pull than the President. It's pure cheesy happiness in a pot--seriously, the cure for any bad mood. The beet carpaccio was another standout: beautifully thin slices drizzled with sweet fig balsamic, topped with goat cheese crumbles and fresh microgreens. Even the beet skeptics at our table went back for seconds. Next came the strawberry goat cheese salad, and I'm officially a convert. I used to avoid fruit on salads, but this one changed my mind completely. Sweet strawberries, creamy goat cheese, and crisp greens in perfect balance. I'm already planning my next visit with grilled salmon on top. For mains we shared the chicken paillard--light, bright with lemon, and paired with dreamy whipped mashed potatoes--and the steak frites. The steak was tender and juicy, but let's be honest... those frites stole the show. Fresh-cut, double-fried, perfectly crispy and salty. I could have eaten an endless basket of them. Absolute drool-worthy. We finished the night with sharing a plate of beignets. Warm, fluffy and dusted with powdered sugar. The service was phenomenal, especially for a large group. Our server never missed a beat, and the whole team was warm and attentive. The drink menu is excellent too--great selection of beers, wines, and creative cocktails. The Napoleon was our table favorite by far. Petite Suzette has officially earned a new set of regulars. We'll be back later this week, and I can't wait to try even more. If you're anywhere near Montgomery, do yourself a favor and go in. You won't regret it!

I ordered the Seafood Ravioli -- cheese raviolis covered in a rich crab bisque cream sauce with sautéed crawfish tails, shrimp, spinach, cherry tomatoes, and Parmesan. It was absolutely delicious and full of flavor, worth every bit of the $21.99. My son had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich with applewood smoked bacon, pepper jack cheese, and Cajun honey mustard aioli.

We saw some great options ( Truth, Triple J, Killen's, and Brisket & Rice were all in the running, and we didn't try any of those so can't say on them). This was a thought out choice and I was super excited to try them! Being a family run operation was really awesome to me as well. First the good to great: the staff was super nice and helpful. The brisket was ah-mazing. Not too Smokey but cooked very tender and delicious! The barbecue sauce was on point. Sauces tend to range from too thin to too thick, too sweet to too spicy but Bar A's hit the bulls eye! Not too thin, not too sweet...I really enjoyed the brisket! Walking up, the smells were incredible! A nice outdoor spot to eat (it was a very mild day and just beautiful out..but I digress). Also, the Mac and Cheese...oh my!! Some of the best I've ever had! The downside: We drove an hour and a half especially to eat here...it was our primary reason for heading up to Montgomery! Getting there around 3pm, you would figure is a sweet spot for a restaurant open from like 11-6 on a Friday. When we went to order as we're trying to figure out the plate we want, you know, 2 meats or 3 meats ...sides, yum, as you're drooling, we were going for the TRINITY Plate. Brisket, rib and sausage...a nice cross section. Nope, we can't do a TRINITY. we only have brisket and turkey left. I know a lot of people love turkey. I'm not one of them and my heart was set on Beef. So now we're on a 1 meat and two sides track I guess. Ok, can we do brisket on the one meat? "Sure I can do that" was the cheery reply. So we got two plates brisket, and I asked could you make that moist cut brisket (my favorite, while my wife always prefers the lean). "Nope, sorry, we're all out of moist brisket". Ok, so one plate with cheesy potato casserole (doesn't that just sound amazing?) and Mac & cheese and one plate With cheesy potato casserole and pinto beans, that way we can get more great tastes and share, right? Oh, and bread, pickles, onions and jalapeños. (The bread is Martins and is always amazing if you know what I'm talking about...I think it's potato roll bread?). Got our plates and start to pay...two $20 plates and no drinks, just water. Over $50! Hmmm, well, the one meat tray with brisket has a $4 up charge. Hmmm. Sat down and got to chowing down! Here's where disappointment sets in. As I said, brisket and sauce was on point. The onions are maybe slightly pickled, not sure, but also very good. The meat, was 3 slices of brisket...4 would have been a sweet spot but eh, 3. The sides. Cheesy potato casserole had the texture of rice...I kept thinking it was rice as I ate it. It had some spice to it but very little flavor. Very disappointing. Mac & cheese--ah-mazing! Pinto beans were like a salt-a-holics take on ranch style beans. Not good. Almost not edible. But I was hungry. I put some sauce on the potato casserole and made it taste ok...still couldn't get Over the rice texture (I'm not saying it had rice, but just had the texture of a rice pilaf ). Two pieces of great bread rounded it out! So overall, disappointed that there wasn't more to choose (ribs, moist brisket, sausage) and I get it, They make so much and sell out then that's good business for them. To the customer who drove and hour and a half to eat there, not so good business. The sides were 1 for 3 in the good to great category and worst of all, after spending $50+ on lunch for 2, I was still hungry. I wouldn't have expected that for sure. I couldn't decide between 3 or 4 star but my missing stars shake out like this: 1 went because of availability and then ultimately being up charged for what was left. And 1 went for disappointing 2 out of 3 sides and portion size/value. Sorry, we didn't take any photos of the food.
