Deep fried biscuit
Tanisha B.

I stopped by on a random Wednesday night with a friend for dinner, and we decided to keep it light with appetizers and dessert since we didn't really know what to expect it was our first time visiting. The nachos were a standout packed with flavor and topped with chicken and shrimp. The cheese was especially memorable, super creamy and rich. We also tried the margarita flight, which was surprisingly affordable and served in the cutest little Patron style glasses. The lollipop lamb chops were another highlight and cooked to perfection. To top it all off, we ended with the deep fried biscuit dessert, which alone would have me coming back again. Overall, the service was good and their price was very reasonable. My only minor complaint would be that the music was a bit loud, but maybe that just means I'm getting old lol. Overall, a really chill and tasty experience!

So here are my thoughts. I happened upon this black owned restaurant in a restaurant row type of setting. Upon entry, I was immediately greeted! I sat at the bar, and the bartender came over right away. All good things! While dining, who I assume to be the manager, was walking around checking in with the patrons! Extra points for that! On this particular day, they had a saxophonist and singer, which added to the vibes. This may have been because it was Valentines Day. But from what I was told, they have events there often. Now on to the food. I ordered catfish nuggets, which were recommended by the bartender. They were tasty enough. I think I would have preferred a different presentation, as they are just served in a fry basket, and looked unassuming. (I didn't bother to photograph it). But that's not a big deal. For my entree, I ordered seafood enchiladas. While they were also good enough, I'm not sure they are worth the price. The seafood included tiny crawfish and over processed crab meat. As a foodie, I don't mind paying for tasty food of higher quality, but this dish was just ok for me. The cocktail in the large size was worth the price for me at $20. The food does take a fair bit of time to come out, but nothing ridiculously excessive. I wouldn't be opposed to coming back to try more of their dishes!

We had a wonderful experience at La'Caj Seafood. The ambiance immediately stood out. The space felt warm, inviting, and comfortable. It's great for a quick date night, a girls' meet-up, or even catching the game. The service was just as enjoyable. The team was attentive without hovering and made us feel genuinely welcomed. Everything came out at a great pace, and we never felt rushed. As for the food, everything we tried was full of flavor and clearly made with care. The Cajun butter lamb chops were a standout, perfectly cooked and seasoned, and the fried red snapper was crisp, well seasoned, and fresh. The appetizers and sides were just as good, the steak bites won me over and the Southern Peach cocktail was smooth Overall, La'Caj Seafood delivered a great dining experience from start to finish. You can tell there's real thought behind the menu and the experience, and we'll definitely be

Loaded nachos

Got there after 3 pm so it was not very crowded. Our server Kenneth was very helpful and attentive with the menus and specials! The lunch special menu was still available so I ordered the shrimp po' boy sandwich with fries and lemonade. My wife got a generous helping of nachos with crawfish. The space is open and music fills the air with a backdrop of a bar in the middle of the place and two large TVs. We have been meaning to visit here for quite sometime and today was a great time to get here!

Tequila lemon drop must have!!

I've given LaCaj Seafood several chances because I have friends and family who really enjoy coming here for the atmosphere and overall vibe. And to be fair, it is a cool social spot and a nice place to meet up with friends. There's plenty of parking, an open patio when the weather is nice, and I believe they host hookah events once or twice a week, which adds to the social scene. That said, my experiences with the food have been consistently underwhelming. Each time I've gone, the food has been mediocre at best, or items listed on the menu were unavailable. On more than one occasion, I've ordered something and waited for a while only to be told later that the item wasn't available. That's been frustrating and has really taken away from the overall experience. We'll sometimes stop in just for drinks, and while they're okay, they're not the best I've had. There's definitely room for improvement there as well. The service, however, has always been very friendly. We often get the same server, and she is consistently on point, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. At the bar, the bartenders can sometimes be unsure about what the kitchen has available, which is understandable, but it would really help if that information was communicated upfront while ordering rather than after a wait. Overall, LaCaj Seafood is a solid spot for socializing and meeting up with friends, but the food consistency and menu availability need improvement for me to truly enjoy coming here.

PG County, you have a brunch banger on your hands! La'caj Seafood was a 10/10 across the board. I got the signature La'caj Purse (a 26 oz cocktail) and chose the blueberry waffle, subbed vodka for tequila (chef's kiss). Everything on this table food-wise? 10/10. The shrimp were perfectly seasoned and cooked and that dill-flavored dipping sauce was so unique and flavorful. The vibes were unmatched,they accommodated our last-minute split reservations, made sure our first visit was top tier, then started playing line dance music and handed out fans like it was a whole party ‍ If you're looking for great food, strong drinks, and a good family friendly brunch experience head over to @La'Caj Seafood

La Casita Carne Asada & Eggs
Nicholas C.

Didn't disappoint! Grabbed a quick bite to eat with one of my friends. Ate at the bar, which had a wonderful bar staff. My friend wanted to watch a specific football game and they met his request with no pushback. Now to me, the menu items are different but nothing out of the ordinary. I ordered the La Casita Carne Asada and Eggs, basically steak and eggs. It was a great entree and definitely a repeatable contender for when I come back. Steak was tender and flavored just right. The eggs were cooked exactly how I asked. My friend and I did share the Fried Chicken Taquitos. They were good but I wouldn't get them again. Overall, this place reminds me of an ol' reliable and casual restaurant for when you just want to grab something with some friends. Not too packed, not too loud, attentive and friendly staff, and good food.

Wings and Sweet Potato Fries
Kaneisha W.

Excellent customer service!!!!! Great vibes. The etoufee is the best meal I've had!! It's creamy but super spicy. Full of so much crawfish! The seafood enchiladas are very delicious also. The prices of the food are well worth it.

Loaded Nachos
Jared E.

The service was great for lunch time. My wife and I walked in randomly since it was down the street from her job. Our server was attentive and very helpful with picking out a food item. It is quiet during lunch but I can see the space has good potential to be a happy hour place or spot to meet up with friends or go on a date. Loaded Nachos: 9/10.. I was skeptical about getting shrimp as a protein but it was a perfect blend of flavor. Finally, nachos that got flavor and the protein was flavored. I was very pleased. The only reason I am doing 9/10 is because for me I could have used more heat and I'm sure I could have asked for it. I will absolutely come back here when I get the opportunity.

Creamy Cajun Pasta
Jessica U.

Creamy Cajun Pasta - 8.5/10 Loaded nachos - 9/10 Virgin mojito - 10/10 Came for lunch on a Tuesday. It was pretty and I was happy about that. Food was delicious.

Since my first experience (brunch) was extremely satisfying I decided to visit for lunch after I saw their unbelievable lunch menu. We had a 1:00pm reservation but I'm not sure the reservation was necessary since it was not crowded. We were greeted and seated quickly. The menu options were great but I couldn't believe the cost...fast food would cost more. We had the southern fried fish sandwich with fries and the build your own cajun flatbread. Yum yum yum....we enjoyed every bite. Impressed once again with the service and the food. If you live or work in the area it's definitely worth a visit.

Honey Old Bay Wings

I can't put my finger on it. But for some reason I got 6 wings. Fries. And soda. And payed 23 dollars. No they say support black businesses but how does this make sense !? Oh it's from inflation lol. Good lil vibe place kinda steep on prices. It's meh

Just the Black-owned healthy food spot I've been looking for in the Temple Hills area…read more Food : 9/10 -- I had the the unCrabaKALE on top of the CranKALE salad and it was out of this world! Whatever seasoning they use is chef's kiss -- I selected garlic as a topping but I could tell there was more going on. The crab meat was warm and perfectly seasoned too. My only note: the 16oz eats more like a side salad than a main dish. For $13 it's competitive with a Sweetgreen or Cava, so next time I'm just sizing up to the 32oz. Service : 8/10 -- The young lady at the register was pleasant and made sure my order was complete. I did wait an extra 5-8 minutes past my 5:55 pickup time, but nothing major. Ambiance : 9/10 -- Not your average salad spot. The vibe is cozy -- think relaxed bar & lounge on a smaller scale. Love that the menu item names are fun and creative, though the menu itself feels a little busy and could be simplified. I'd love to see Kenny Kale franchised on a larger scale someday. Overall: 9/10 -- Kenny Kale is killing it and is def a keeper on my list I found this place and ordered the same day -- that's how excited I was. I'm genuinely thrilled to have a unique, healthy restaurant in the area that isn't another Chipotle, Tropical Smoothie, or..... fried chicken spot that keep getting placed in Black communities instead of diverse, health-forward choices. And did I mention it was black-owned?! lol nonetheless, it's a literal breath of fresh air. I'll definitely be back!

Stopped into Kenny's Kale to try one of their salads and a drink. They were out of their lemonades…read morefor the day so I went with the CranKale and added shrimp, crab, eggs, cucumber and avacado. Although they were out of the avacado, the salad still tasted fresh.

This is the most jumping crab spot I've been to in the DMV…read more . There's a live Dj and a room full of people. There is a security guard at the door checking ID's upon entry. The food was pretty good and the drinks were ok. There were people playing card games here like it was the VFW but they were having fun and it was no drama so that's a plus. Food came quick and so did the drink. This place is located in the same parking lot as Fast Eddies right near the Checkers.

Came here very spontaneously on a Friday for a drink with someone I met. Honestly, I have reached…read morethe point where I feel like any location with the word "crab" in the name in PG County is pretty much the same. Strong drinks - hit and miss in terms of flavor, but I was buzzed after two and they are very decently priced. Service: sort of all over the place. They can be a bit slow, but for the most part, everyone is nice. Food: I only had the calamari. It was actually very good and very fresh tasting. I appreciated this. I did not appreciate that. They only had Pepsi products. Ew. But that's a personal preference. Lol Bathrooms: Clean enough to use but def needed some TLC. Not one of those ones you walk into and immediately walk out of, knowing that you'll wait until you get home. But not great. The clientele: WOW. WHAT A MIX. While I was there, this girl threw up at the table, but continued to drink her drink. It was so disgusting. You can tell this is probably a very local hangout spot. A bit ratchet, but a cool place to grab some drinks. Music: A DJ was there. It was loud AF and the musical selection was all over the place. Would I return? Probably with someone if I'm randomly trying to be tipsy but lowkey.
