HOLY SMOKES!!! My boyfriend and I who are both originally from Houston now live in NWA. I was in Little Rock for a Drs appointment and my boyfriend found this place on google. When I tell you it was the best food and friendliest service. He had the fish and shrimp and I had fried oysters. We also had the boudin balls. Even the tartar sauce was amazing. Not pictured is the peach pie we brought home and shared in like 2 bites each. Honestly 5 stars is not enough for this unassuming little place. read more

Good find for great catfish. Counter service only. The food was a bit slow to come out, but it was definitely cooked fresh. The restaurant itself is very dark inside, and a bit on the run-down side, but the food was excellent, so I won't hold that against them too much. I don't live nearby, but my dad said he'd definitely come back. read more

Lazy Pete's - 3 piece fried catfish basket. They gave me 4 pieces instead of 3. The sides were good too. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

We visited Lazy Pete's for the first time on a Monday for lunch. The place was busy with a lot of walk-in to-go pickups and had many people seated at he various booths and tables. It's a small and cozy place, not too loud even though it was nearly full with patrons. Orders are take at the cash register by the friendly and helpful staff at this family-run restaurant. If you want some good home style catfish, this place was excellent. My catfish dinner was plentiful, with the catfish filets cooked just right. The fresh cut fries were hot and crispy. The fried shrimp dinner was excellent, too. Prices were quite reasonable. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed the grilled snapper, grilled fresh vegetables and deliciously seasoned rice. My mother greatly enjoyed her fried shrimp with French fries and coleslaw. She said it was the best coleslaw she has ever had. I couldn't help but snag some of the yummy freshly cut french fries. Our meal was served promptly. read more

Food is fantastic! Chicken strips are huge & I love the sautéd veggies & coleslaw. Husband always gets the 2 meat special - catfish & shrimp w/ okra. Onion rings are perfect, but unless you are REALLY hungry, order the small. Not fast food so be prepared or call ahead. It's worth the wait! read more

This place is a hidden gem. The food is delicious. If you like Cajun cooking, this is the place for you; Gumbo, shrimp and grits, red beans and rice, po-boys, and fried pies for dessert. Check it out, you won't be disappointed. read more

I had just arrived in Little Rock and was treated here and let me say.. I was told how good the wings were BUT... you know i needed to see for myself. They closed at 8.. so there were some customers finishing up their dining with some waiting for their orders. The place dining area was clean for the most part. The guy working at the counter who was taking orders was friendly! Thank you for that. Now on to the food! Whew! those wings were amazing! I got the country fried & bbq flavors and i could've legit just got all of them country fried they were delish! You all receive 5 stars from me. I would recommend! Thank you guys! read more

I really enjoyed coming here with myself and my little one. We ordered the shrimp and fish platter as well as a cup of gumbo. The lady who took our order was very helpful as it was my first time it was very patient with us. She gave us her recommendations and they didn't disappoint. Our food came up fast and hot. The fish was very crispy and flavorful. The gumbo was a little above average. I will say I am from Louisiana so I may be a little biased but it was okay for arkansas. My kid enjoyed it so it was fine. I will say that the space gives "hole in the wall-esq" vibes. But we ate in and enjoyed everything. I will definitely be going back and try some of their grilled options. But it definitely gave me my fix for fried food. read more

Coming from out of state (NV). The restaurant is a bit dark but the food and service is wonderful. The crawfish is very nicely seasoned along with the chicken tenders and calamari. The food came out very fast and it was reasonably priced for seafood. I definitely recommend if you're are looking for some great seafood. read more

Today being the only black people in the restaurant they decided to serve my wife and me last. We were the 2nd people in the building with a couple in front of us, their order was taken and the ours next. My ticket said 11:02 we sat and waited then another table had people now it's about 5 tables occupied. The people that walked in before us got their food then the third table got theirs I got ups and ask they said my food takes longer not it's 11:15 now another table is getting food, now I had enough it's 11:28 now I ask for a refund. With no explanation or we're sorry a refund. As we were leaving I noticed tables on the other side had food already. Never again will go to this place I guess black people eat last there. read more

Lazy Pete's is always such a wonderful place to eat at. It's clean, it's cozy, it has a calm atmosphere. The staff are always working hard and making sure everything is hot and ready to go. I absolutely always love eating here. The catfish is clean, the seasoning is delicious. I highly suggest getting their fried green tomatoes. The horseradish sauce is incredible. read more

Have been here before, & recently moved close by & wanted to try again. Fried Catfish was really good & wife's Fried Shrimp was as well, as we did Takeout. I would suggest they improve the lighting a bit, but we'll be back. Great to be closer to good seafood. read more

Found lazy Petes here on yelp located on the West End in Little Rock. Awesome food awesome service they're not involved in delivery. I was kind of not disappointed, but I really would've liked to have some deliver but they do take out all the time. Great fish great food great cooks. The lady that checked us out I inquired about the delivery and about their hours just a wonderful atmosphere nice and cozy place. Kind of romantic kind of dark if you want to take you and your wife or your girlfriend, which is what I did this is a wonderful place? I love finding local places like this off the map. read more

Decided to go in there after checking some good reviews from fellow yelpers. For a place that has Lazy in their name they are on their toes pretty much it got a bit busy whenever I was there got me the 2 meat platter with Catfish and shrimp fries Cole slaw and red beans and rice as extra. Everything was fresh and spot on I'm glad we have some good food option in the Chenal Pkwy area. The sweet tea was good super sweet as it should be and service was nice and friendly. The catfish was the star of the day and the coke slaw hit the spot my least favorite were the fries but can't wait to go back and try their other food options. Will recommend 100% and Let the good times roll read more

Lazy Pete's - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

To finish off a wonderful day, we located a small Creole Cajun restaurant. The food was wonderful, and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Nice and casual. You order at the counter, find a seat and wait for your order number to be called out. Since the food is cooked fresh, there is a short wait while you enjoy the company of your dining guest. So, I had to turn off my cell phone and pay attention. We started with Boudin Balls and Gumbo. For entrees we had a crawfish platter and a catfish platter. They let us substitute on one dish, the coleslaw for red beans and rice. If you are in Little Rock, drop by this restaurant often described as a hole-in-a-wall. Our eyes were bigger than our tummies, so we have take home to enjoy later. read more

My family of four happened upon this place for dinner. People are likely not going for the atmosphere (stand in line to order and definitely nothing special about the dining area), but they're onto something with the food. The catfish was definitely a hit, and I got the shrimp étouffée that came with a soaked salad- both great - I would highly recommend. Also, very affordable especially considering the quality of the food we got. The staff was very friendly- great experience all around. We will be back! read more

Lazy Pete's - Shrimp Étouffée - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

The boiled shrimp were good. I got a half pound which was about 12 of them shell on, no heads. They were fresh shrimp, very basic with Cajun seasoning sprinkled on. The fried shrimp were pretty good. Red beans and rice was nothing to write home about. My buddy said his calamari was cooked to perfection. He thought the hush puppies were the frozen kind, but I liked them. Overall, I would eat here again. Next time I'll try some different things. Maybe something grilled. read more

Hated it the restaurant certainly lived up to its name . I ordered fish the fish was burnt like it had been cooked in old grease that had been used over and over . I was asked if I wanted them to cook some more I said yes . The second batch of fish appeared to be water logged . I will NEVER go back read more

Outstanding. I felt like I transported from LR to Lafayette in an instant. Great shrimp and blackened snapper. Service was fast. Will return. read more

The ahi tuna was chewy and way overcooked. Definitely not worth 18$. Hush puppies were dried out. Won't be back, waste of money.

We were in town for a concert and stumbled upon a couple of reviews for this place. We decided to give it and try and we were nothing but impressed! Days later now and my wife is still talking about the Blackened Salmon she had there! We tried the Boudin Balls, the corn fritters, I had the shrimp and the catfish and wings. Everything was excellent, perfectly cooked and very fresh!!! It's a small place, tucked in the corner of a shopping center but the food makes you think you are in a fancy New Orleans restaurant. We are already looking for an excuse to get back to Little Rock so we can visit again! read more

Love to eat here. Shrimp Po-Boy is my go to ! I haven't had anything here that I wouldn't order again.

Food is delicious. Service was great. The ambiance lacks. You get the feeling they forgot to pay the light bill. Very dark at the front counter. read more

This was a spur of the moment choice, and it's one that we did not regret. My sister had the calamari my daughter had the crawfish tails and I stuck with the chicken tenders. Everything tasted fantastic. It was fresh and could not have asked for a better dinner. read more

So yummy I could eat every meal here. I found this place off tell and can't wait to go back and eat it again.

They food would be okay if it was so bland. This is the type of food they serve at nursing homes. No seasoning at all!!

Super local place - food was excellent! I had the fried shrimp basket, and the shrimp were so fresh and delicate I could have sworn I was on the Gulf Coast of Florida! My fella had the blackened salmon, which was a huge portion and perfectly seasoned. The beer and wine selection were really limited, but workable. Don't let looks deceive you - upon first glance in the strip mall it can look a little sketch, but we were greeted warmly and the regulars there pointed out their favorites on the menu. Hope to visit again! read more

So yummy! We came in from out of state. The kids had popcorn shrimp, and we had a crawfish poboy and wings/fried shrimp. The shrimp and poboy were fantastic! The coleslaw was boring- not homemade- but the French fried were fried perfectly. And the hush puppies are The best I've had at a restaurant. Overall a great experience! We will be back read more

I wanted a shrimp poboy. It did NOT disappoint. My husband had the blackened redfish special which was also very good. Wish we had saved room for the fried pies. Next time. Only negative thing I can say is that they need new cushions in the booths. read more

Hand battered, served hot...the absolute definition of fried seafood...plus lots more on the menu...beer is literally iced down...really recommend you cut to the chase and come get it real here at Lazy Pete's. But Pete, seriously man, you get six stars for food but negative one for atmosphere...thus the five star rating. Get off your couch and go find some new digs without the torn seats and one that has light fixture. Also...having a fish tank in a seafood restaurant is like have a cow eating grass in front of a steak house. read more
