    Three pounds special
    Benjetta H.

    Larry P's is the best place to eat in the city! The food is always good, hot and fresh. The beer is always cold! Their atmosphere is the best around! We went on day for their special, we added things to it that we did not get, the very next time we went they took care of us!!!!

    Crawfish Mac LRG ($10)

    What's the one thing one should eat in LA while passing through? Local Crawfish! Market price and my budget made it not advantageous to get a mess of them to shell and eat. it's in the Mac 'n cheese, y'all! Everything was seasoned to perfection and their house blends of sauces, dips and butters are worth the visit alone! (See pics) My only complaint is the music that eventually got turned on that had some profane language that was off putting. The genre was not the issue just the lyrics; I love me some Tauren Wells or Lecrae. Sweet, very polite, patient, helpful lady behind the register made you feel welcome and at home. Larry, the owner was on sight and answered promptly to questions I posted via Yelp before stopping in; he also tended some customers so they got their food hot when ready while the cashier was taking others orders.

    I love the po-boy bread they use! Fried fish and fried shrimp have good flavor (too much heat for my husband and son but they can't handle any heat). Shrimp are small but good. Also love the glass bottle Cokes, Dr Pepper, Sprite, and root beer. Inside seating is limited but plenty of seating outside in the covered patio area.

    Yum! 2/2020

    WHOOO! Larry P's is all over every handout and I've read about Larry P's on many blogs when looking to visit Shreveport. It's a food truck and you can see the trucks with the live crawfish parked beside the truck. You can't miss it if you are following your mapquest. There's a huge billboard. FOLLOW THEM ON FACEBOOK FOR THE LATEST NEWS! They will post often during crawfish season. This year started mid December? Not sure when it will end but give them a call prior to arrival or check FB! $5.95/lb of crawfish right now. Got the $18.99 3lb crawfish platter with potatoes and corn. Came with a few small potatoes and 1 piece of corn and the remaining was crawfish. The seasoning is a bit spicier than other crawfish places. I loved the flavors blended. Because it's only February, crawfish are still small and not fully grown yet but that's okay because the taste blended is delicious. TRY THEIR BEIGNETS! I've never had beignets before so these were absolutely delicious. Lots of powdered sugar and it's so delicious when they are warm. 3 for $5. Worth it!

    I'm here to rave about the snowballs. They're basically ice cold, super fluffy balls of juicy joy. They don't have a crazy list of flavors, but they've got a solid list; plus they have some specialty situations that involve multiple syrups and blue bell ice cream too. The price is good, the ice is perfection and I'm basically a fan. The grave tragedy in my adult life is a new shellfish allergy so I couldn't even indulge in the seafood situation, but my friend that brought me here expressed deep deep regret about what I was missing out on. She and her husband love it. I will say that the scents and the crowd lead me to believe that the whole situation is legit. I was definitely sad to not be tearing through a pile of crawfish.

    We just moved to LA, we had crawfish boiled from this place and BOYYYYYY was it good. It's delish, spicy and tasty. Even corn and potatoes cooked perfectly. Most definitely coming back for more crawfish. Even our 22 months old daughter loves it, even it's spicy she wants more lol! Thank you guys.

    Oily crab that wasn't good. Just go to Joes if you want seafood it tastes better and it's cheaper which is a little shocking.

    Just a bit off the main highway through town, but we went since a friend recommended it from his…read moremany trips through town. Worth it. Lots of mainly fried fish options, with a few grilled available as well. Fried Catfish! Wonderful proper crisp but light crust on a best ever thick filet light steamed with great flaky large filets. Shrimp really good and sides and gumbo are just right. Parking looked full but plenty of table space still available inside. They are known for very prompt service and food, so they apologized when it was going to take 10 minutes as they had just turned in orders for 2 parties of a dozen. Prices are quite reasonable, getting homemade quality for just about a dollar over commercial chains, with plenty of food on the plate. Unsweet tea was just brewed and better taste than you would expect... Worth the extra short drive around town to get there, and quite fine staff as well. Try it, you'll like it.

    I visited Crawdaddy's Kitchen yesterday evening around 6:00 PM to get crawfish. Let me start by…read moresaying the seasoning was absolutely amazing flavor-wise, it was on point. However, the overall experience was very disappointing, which is unusual for me because I have eaten here many times in the past and have never had a bad experience until now. We were seated, and our waitress initially greeted us and brought drinks for me, my daughter, and my friend. After that, service became difficult. It took a long time to find our waitress when we needed refills. Eventually, I had to get up myself, and another server from a different section was kind enough to bring our drinks. When the crawfish arrived, they were extremely small for the amount ordered (three and a half pounds). They were not hot--only warm--and very wet, almost as if they hadn't been cooked long enough. It honestly felt like we received the bottom of the barrel. By the time we received the check, I was extremely disappointed, especially considering the amount of money paid. I'm not sure what was going on that night, but this experience did not meet the standard I've come to expect from Crawdaddy's. I truly hope this was just an off night, because this visit was not the Crawdaddy's experience I've had or expected in the past.

    One-Star Review - Unprofessional Conduct That Completely Ruined Our Evening…read moreThis review reflects my personal experience during a visit to The Hunter Crab. After being seated, my wife and I waited an extended period before our main order was even taken. During this time, multiple tables that arrived and were seated after us were able to order and receive their food before we were given the opportunity to place our main order, which immediately set a negative tone. Our appetizer (crab cakes) and drinks arrived in reasonable time, but the issues escalated with the main courses. My wife ordered two clusters of snow crab legs at medium spiciness. When the dish arrived, an entire claw was missing. The plate was taken back and replaced with food that was not what was originally ordered. Instead of medium, it was significantly spicier and caused discomfort when eaten. We have ordered this same dish here before and are familiar with its normal spice level. I ordered the catfish basket with Cajun fries. The fish was extremely hot when served, so I waited before eating it. When I did, it was overcooked in my opinion, rubbery in texture, and the batter separated in large chunks. My wife attempted to speak with a manager but was told no manager was on the premises. A bartender stated the meals could be remade and the bill discounted. Before that could happen, another male employee was brought to our table, and this is where the experience became unacceptable. Rather than listening or attempting to resolve the situation, this employee immediately became combative, argumentative, and dismissive. He repeatedly told my wife she was wrong about the spice level and insisted the food was correct, even after she explained it burned her mouth. His tone was confrontational and unprofessional. When he addressed me, the same behavior continued. I calmly explained the problems with my meal, and he dismissed everything I said, repeatedly insisting the food was great and implying that our experience was incorrect. At no point did he attempt to de-escalate, apologize, or show concern for the customer experience. His focus appeared to be on arguing rather than resolving the issue. Throughout this interaction, I was clearly wearing a combat veteran hat. This restaurant does offer a military discount, and it has been provided to us during prior visits. However, during this visit it was never offered or mentioned at any point, which stood out given the circumstances. At no point did we ask for free food. I stated clearly that I did not want my meal remade and simply wanted to pay and leave. As the employee continued to argue, I stood up to proceed to the register so we could exit. Despite no threats, no physical contact, and no aggressive actions on my part, law enforcement was called, which escalated the situation unnecessarily. When I began recording for my own documentation, the officers' behavior and attempts to block the phone felt intimidating to me, adding further stress. What made this especially upsetting was that the combined behavior of the employee and the officers made it feel as though we would not be allowed to leave unless we paid the full bill, despite everything that had occurred. In that moment, it felt as though disputing the charges or seeking further resolution could lead to further detention or arrest, which was extremely uncomfortable. What should have been an enjoyable date night turned into an overwhelming sense of disappointment. The lack of professionalism, absence of management, hostile employee behavior, and unnecessary escalation completely ruined our evening. We left frustrated, uncomfortable, and stressed, having paid full price with no meaningful resolution or recourse offered for the issues we experienced. This was not simply about food quality--it was about how customers were treated. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend dining here.
