I went in for lunch today and ordered a pound of crawfish and ordered it extra spicy and ooh boy was it spicy. So much so that I ended up not being able to handle it. I accepted my fate but the waiter ended up passing by and noticed I hadn't really eaten much of the dish. I mentioned the spice level and immediately she offered to take it back and fix it. She didn't have to do that and made my experience that much better. read more

I had high hopes. Nope! I will not be back!! The store was dirty and by this I mean the staff left tables with trash on them and the floors were sticky. Now the food rant. I ordered three items and all were just a bad experience for me. I had the bbq shrimp, a bowl of gumbo and an order of some seafood egg rolls. The shrimp were way over cooked and inedible. The egg rolls were a mistake and the gumbo actually has chunks of crab shell in it. I ate a few shrimp as I could barely get the shell off, I drank the gumbo broth and forced myself to eat the egg rolls. I didn't want to throw away $30 worth of food so I managed. Watch out for that gumbo. I was shocked to bite down and then get that feeling like you broke a tooth. That is all! read more

I was craving a seafood boil and this was available on door dash. Shrimp: pretty good. Flavors were delicious. I got the spicy level which was way too spicy for me. Pho: I thought they would incorporate more of the seafood flavors into the pho but this was just meh. Nothing special. Also, when you pack pho, you should store the broth separately otherwise the noodles soak up all the broth like leaving a marshmallow in hot chocolate for too long. Price: way too expensive for what it is. read more

Was here last week by chance and omg best little accidental find. Chill vibe, delicious food, employees were really nice and helpful in ordering. Overall at 10/10 parking sucks but that's not their fault the whole lot is a mess. Maybe I'm a little biased because I've never had crawfish before but this was for sure a great introduction to it read more

My husband and I were very impressed! Food is delicious!! We ordered crawfish and shrimp with sausage, potatoes & corn. It is a little pricey, we got fries with wings for our son with a side of fries that cost $4.99 (just the fries) wings weren't bad but I just think the price for those wings is crazy. Also, I didn't like that you don't have a server. You have to go up to order and if you need anything else you have to get up yourself and get it. That's all. But we will definitely be back. read more

I went during dinner time and it wasn't busy. All the tables have disposable table covers. I probably won't be coming back to this restaurant. The Cajun flavor was okay. Half of the crawfish I ate isn't fresh. Feels like all the seasoning or the flavor was on the shells and the actual crawfish itself is flavorless. I tried their new flavor Szechuan. Definitely gives you that numbness but it's not spicy. They added a lot of soy sauce. Chicken bites were extremely salty! read more

I always enjoy the food here and recently had a great customer service experience with them helping me out with a payment issue.

I've been here at least 6 times and it'd always consistently good. It definitely looks like a cheap little hole in the wall chain but I'm telling you it's better than it looks. Our favorite is the shrimp in cajun garlic butter. Make sure to add potatoes, sausage and egg for the complete experience. read more

Very cool atmosphere. We were excited it was byob Food was needing tons of TLC. No flavor at all. I had crawfish pho, it was ok, but had no crawfish flavor or Cajun I should flavor like I expected. Also ordered blue crab, very un flavorful, we got spicy Cajun but it seemed like all we could taste was the meat like if it had been boiled in water only. I'll give it time before I return, maybe it is the fact that it just opened and they're working the kinks out ‍ read more

Ehhhh I will stick to H-towns LA Crawfish bc there was a piece of tree bark/leaf or something that doesn't belong in a boil left in my boil bag. There was hair on a few of my crawfish and I was NOT feeling that at all, this turned up at the end of my feast of crawfish grossed me out as I got to the 3rd piece of what appeared to be hair. It was even a piece in my crabs. Now one could say it was seaweed but we all know that crawfish do not come from the sea soooo yea...blonde brownish and black hair....yea NOPE I am good on that! They forgot my pan and my extra sauce so that was a bummer. The wings were really flavorful but not cooked long enough...ewwww! $60 and not satisfied. I could've just drove to Houston as far as I drove....seriously yall put some hair nets on or something please bc the food is good but that hair will gross out folks to NO RETURN literally! read more

The crawfish and shrimp never fail!!! So darn good!! I suggest to get the garlic butter and cajun as your sauce. read more

Tiny little crawfish abdomens - most of the weight is uneatable, head and thorax. The service is slow. The washrooms antiquated and require a push code to enter. read more

Please remove the onions from your sauce; it used to be perfect and now the mushy shrimp with overcooked onions in the sauce just isn't giving Cajun. It was mostly oil and mush. In the past I've had great food here but now it seems like they have a new chef or something. Anyways they are really nice people but one pound of shrimp for $18 after tip-I'm really disappointed and will not be going back again. read more

First time here, for a place called "la crawfish". This wasn't good at all. The crawfish was not fresh, and you could tell some of them were dead when boiled. Paid $70 for 4 pounds. I left most of them untouched. Not coming back. read more

NEVER AGAIN!!! Rusty Paper towel holder and Rusty buckets on the tables. Try to pull out the plastic bag in the bucket and you will see what I am talking about Improve your sanitation. From kitchen, Rest room, floors, and tables. Food was good as always but the hesitation of enjoying the food because of the cleanliness situation of the restaurant. read more

Friendly staff, great environment, juicy flavor, overall GREAT. I do wanna try the PHO next time read more

This restaurant in Austin is a Cajun inspired. Both times I went here the place was empty between 6 pm and 8 pm. The wood tables have what looks a trash can to hold the shells of the crawfish. There is a roll of paper towels on the table if things get messy. They also have plastic bibs if things get really messy. I had the fried crawfish and waffle fries. It was decent. Maybe next time I will try the crawfish platter. The service here I found to be average. read more

Amazing place to eat at, not "LA" but it's close enough. The crawfish was good and the shrimp was even better. The snow crab was juicy and the seasoning was on point . I would recommended coming here if are a foodie for crawfish. The price isn't that bad for Cajun sea food. Also 6 dollar minchilada??? You can't beat that . Will definitely be coming back !!! Thanks guys read more

All the food was delicious. I'm definitely the type for the serving experience so getting all my food at one time was a lot. I'm pretty picky about my crawfish and this did not disappoint. They also have a lot of pho options available! read more

I wanted so badly to like it here! I spent about $40 on a meal and could tell from the first bite that the shrimp and crawfish were bad :/ The one good thing was the side of pho broth I ordered--it was very good! read more

I will preface this by saying I grew up eating crawfish and have never dealt with this. Their crawfish made me physically ill. It tasted off when it was first brought to our table, but i thought they might have just not been purged before boiling. I only had a few before I just gave up. The more I poked around, the more I realized most of them had been dead before they even hit the boil. I thought that if i stopped eating them after a few bites, i would be spared but clearly not. I did not want to spend my day having food poisoning from crawfish but here we are. Please revisit how you prepare them or you will keep making people sick. read more

Whoever is working the lunch shift today 3.3.20 all by herself is amazing! Had great customer service and trying her best when the restaurant was packed and she was the only front of the house staff! Kudos to her for doing it all with a smile on her face with some rude guests. Edit: After trying the food. The extra spicy mixture of cajun and garlic butter was soooo good! Will definitely be back. read more

Respectfully I'll never eat from this place of business! I decided to give this restaurant a try I was in the mood for seafood heading to work "bad decision". I order a surf and surf giving them a chance four shrimps, two pieces of tilapia, and a drink $15 wow! Once i was able to stop and eat this what I saw in my box I understand my food was ordered to go. The presentation was not appetizing at all. I should have look at the reviews before ordering from here. Whatever the reviews say I'll believe them from now on since I moved here from Georgia. read more

I spent $30 on lunch here that was sent to the dumpster. I've had BBQ shrimp dozens of places and no one ever leaves the peel on, deep fries and sends it out. So out of the gate I was kinda shocked by the method here. I tried eating through the shell but it was like eating a peanut in the shell. Each bite took about 3-5 minutes to chew just to be able to swallow it. Seriously? Who thought this was a good idea? At the very least they should tell people ordering this dish to be prepared to eat the shell. When I told the person who served me that I found it inedible she looked on at me in disbelief and made no offer to do anything. I'm guess it was my mistake to eat here. read more

If you want Pho go to a Pho place if you want garlic spicy crawfish while in season give LA Crawfish a try. 2lbs with sausage and corn came out 10 mins post order. The size was a mixed bag but definitely some big guys in there. My preference is for more heat but I was still very delighted and enjoyed every bite. Crawfish are not cheap so don't go in expecting to pay $10.00. The other parts of the menu looked interesting but more oriented towards keeping year round offers. I found the staff very nice, and the music was great. I will return in a few weeks when the big boys land. read more

The food was actually really good. Given the reviews I was a bit hesitant but I literally can not say anything except we enjoyed our dinner. Great portions for the price. We had the cheesy seafood rolls, seafood boil with all the fixings and add ins along with a shrimp po boy. Everything was seasoned well and made to order. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 start is because there was a few menu items I wanted to try that weren't available. read more

I'm sorry, but... this is this Los Angeles? I'm from there and we can still afford to eat. But this? Overpriced in person. Disgustingly over priced on Uber eats. I ordered a LB and no corn or potato. This was me giving a second chance. They don't keep up on market prices. Can't imagine this staying open when better options exist. Go somewhere why're you're not being taken advantage of. read more

We got a seafood boil. The worst part of our dinner was that they had no scissors or tools for our shellfish. Only 3 or 4 other tables were occupied so being told that they were out of scissors was surprising. They didn't provide gloves, plates, or place mats so the 4 of us cracking crab legs with our teeth was especially messy! Most of the food was tasty except the potatoes were very bland and we had to dig to the bottom of the bowl for any seasoning. There also were lots of rocks in the seasoning I'm assuming from the clams. We didn't find the experience to be worth the price. read more

Unfortunately, the restaurant seemed understaffed. Crawfish was delicious but can be a hit or miss! The environment felt spacious and clean so that was a plus. read more

My boyfriend and I love seafood so we decided to try this place out since it was new to the area. We got snow crab, shrimp, corn, sausage, and potatoes in their spicy Cajun seasoning. In all honestly the food was REALLY GOOD. We usually go to crawfish shack and oyster bar in south park meadows and I will saw that I feel like this place has better tasting food. The only downside is their service and price. There are no waiters so you order your food at the counter and then they bring it to you. The food was brought out quickly but if you need anything else such as gloves, utensils, bibs, etc it is difficult trying to get the attention of an employee. And then price wise we spent close to $100 including a tip. This place is BYOB so you can also bring in your own beer without running up a tab on alcohol so I feel like that is nice. Maybe in the future their service will improve, since this place is still relatively new. The overall atmosphere just felt like they were short staffed and kind of unorganized, but it didn't ruin my experience too much. read more

We went here for after an afternoon stroll and wanted some authentic Cajun crawfish. Went here and it was 3 pm in the afternoon and the place was empty. I was like fine! More for me! Order and food came out pretty quickly. Crawfish was okay, I would rate the food a 4 star. Place is mostly self serve, so service rating is none existing but the cashier at the counter is fast and courteous, therefore I would give them 2 star for that. Atmosphere is mediocre so 3 star averaging a 3 star for this location. If you want a quick bite this would be the place. read more

If you're a seafood lover this is the spot. Menu items are the real deal, the flavors are explosive, and the servings are well proportioned. They even have pho. Don't expect a fine dining experience, this is a down to earth spot where the magic is in the food. read more

The food was unexpected and so yummy! I had Awesome Garlic Noodle with shrimp. They were fantastic. Hubby had Cajun Curry and we both thought it was one of the best curries we ever tasted.
