I was in search of some catfish in the area and came across this place. They had decent reviews and pictures so why not. I ordered the 10pc catfish nugget with fries and it did not meet my expectations. I expected the nuggets to be bigger or at least thicker. What I received, I could barely call nuggets. It appeared like cracklings... barely any fish at all. Because of this, I had to toss at least 4 of them (see video). On top of that, it was not seasoned well so I didn't even get a taste of satisfaction. Same with the fries - it was bland. The entire meal was a wash and I unfortunately I had to secure a back-up meal elsewhere. The menu seemed promising, but this experience left a sub par first impression. On a brighter note, the staff were very friendly and people seemed to have enjoyed their daiquiris. read more

I'm not even gonna lie... this might be the best Cajun restaurant I've ever been to in my life. The vibes are on point, the drinks are dangerous (in a good way), and the food? Man... somebody grandma definitely in that kitchen. First off, the fish nuggets... listen... I almost ordered another plate before I even finished the first one. Crispy, seasoned, and disrespectfully good. My taste buds started doing the two-step. Now let's talk about that Triple Bypass drink. Whoever named it knew EXACTLY what they were doing. That drink so smooth it sneaks up on you like a ninja. One minute you chilling, next minute you looking at your friends like "hold up... why the room vibing like this?" Wait time? Not bad at all. Service? 100 out of 10. At this point I'm convinced the staff woke up and chose excellence. Rain, sleet, snow, alien invasion -- I'm still pulling up. This place will reset your whole mood and put a Cajun bounce in your soul. Highly recommend. Just don't blame me when you leave full, happy, and a little tipsy. read more

Mardi Gras Daiquiri - Here are the bottles - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

Doordash order placed 1 day before my September 10th birthday . I was excited to see German chocolate cake on their menu. Its my favorite cake which I typically enjoy on my birthday. The catfish was crispy and flaky. The shrimp were the best item nice size to dip in the cocktail sauce. My disappointment came when I pulled out the banana pudding. I thought to myself this doesn't look like German chocolate cake. TheyDoordash order placed 1 day before my September 10th birthday . I was excited to see German chocolate cake on their menu.

These people know how to cook and they do it well, but the dining experience is where opportunity lies. They have karaoke and music, but it's too loud. By the time I left my family had a headache. The amount of time it took to cook was around 30 minutes, and with the continuous loud music, by the time we left, I felt overstimulated. Great food, just atmosphere could use some tweaking and could be more efficient. read more

I was only planning on picking up but the vibe felt comfortable and released a lil stressed when i walked in. Out here by my daughter's house in Mesquite looking for a daiquiri and found a gem. Great for dates, intimate spot to watch football games, playing r&b music, GREAT STAFF! Great food!! Baby they got sweets too! These crab cakes and jambalaya so good. Oh and they got hookahs! Let me find me a lil boo . GREAT SPOT TO CHECK OUT! read more

Where do I start? Music so loud you can't hear your person taking orders. menu says whole wings looks like party wings to me all day. I say 1 filet extra crispy it's so soggy I can ring the grease from it. For $40 and poor ass customer service is saddening. If you want to have a party I guess this your place but food a hard pass!!! read more

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO FRY CATFISH!! I moved to Mesquite recently and I've been on the hunt for decent fried catfish in the area. And by decent, I mean the way my Uncle fries it... crispy, not greasy, not fishy, and with CORN MEAL. Some of yall actually have the audacity to come to Texas and fry fish in flour.. SMDH. I was greeted by ALL of the staff and felt very welcomed and appreciated. All of my questions were answered and everyone was friendly. You can tell they've spent time and effort not only in perfecting their menu, but also in creating a beautiful and comfortable dining area. It was very clean and there was no "fried food" aroma in the air. Classy! You don't realize how impressive this is until you go to similar restaurants and leave smelling like fried chicken. Now, the food: Boudin Balls - Crispy on the outside. Great flavor. Catfish Nugget Basket w/ Jambalaya: Fish was fried to perfection, no fishy taste, and not greasy. Seasoned. Jambalaya was different from what I'm used to, but it was still good. Nice flavor with decent amount of shrimp and sausage tossed in. The basket also came with a corn cob which was surprisingly seasoned very well with some kind of Cajun magic. I don't even like corn, but I ate it. Hot Honey Lemon Pepper Wings- So I'm not a fan of wet wings or buffalo sauce but I tried them anyway bc they were recommended. They were delicious and seasoned well. The sauce was a perfect spicy/sweet balance and they were cooked just right. I'll be trying the dry lemon pepper wings on my next visit. Fried Okra- Best fried okra I've had in a very long time. Ask them to fry it hard. Delicious! Shrimp- Basic fried shrimp. But it was fresh and good sized pieces. Fries- Basic crinkled fries, but not greasy and cooked perfectly. I would've loved to have a dash of cajun magic on em. Maybe I need to request it next time. And they had HUSHPUPPIES!!! Yes Lawd! I'm so tired of these fish places putting "light bread" in my basket!! Thanks for being true to the game! No dessert or Daiquiri this visit but they looked delicious! They have a variety of cakes: Lemon, German Choc, Red Velvet, etc. They also offer peach cobbler. I saw numerous daiquiri flavors as well. I'll try those when I go back for the lemon pepper wings. The nice lady who prepared my order took the time to show me each of my food items before she bagged it up. I love that kind of service! She was very sweet and chatted with me. Mardi Gras Cajun Cuisine-Mesquite has earned my business. I will definitely be returning and bringing my family and friends to enjoy this local gem. Thank you! Great job! Keep it up! read more

Overly spicy and took forever to get my food.It took 35 minutes .......... Sorry was not my favorite place.

The catfish were very large pieces and the flavor was awesome. I will be taking some of my family there for dinner and I know they will love it. And all the different daiquiri's where awesome and there are a lot more I need to go back and try read more

Thank you Mardi Gras! Tonight we do our yearly "thing" Mardi Gras and tour of mesquite cemetery. I had a reaction to the " jamalaya." By all means wonderful food! Staff made it right and gave me something else. Thank you and again your food is wonderful! read more

As this was my first time here. The food and service was great. I appreciated the ambiance very relaxing and good music during day hours. I ordered catfish fillets, corn cob, candied yams, collard greens, and jambalaya. The nice lady with the smile (didn't get her name) while she didn't want my order to be more delayed then need be. She gave me a fillet with my order while the nuggets were taking a little while longer to be prepared. And I appreciated that! I still got my nuggets at no extra charge of course. Great thing about that I had a little left over to take home. Every thing was individually well seasoned and had the perfect texture and crunch. They've gained a regular patron read more

As a vegan I love that the greens have no meat in them and are seasoned well with just enough spice. Side of hush puppies and cornbread along with a nice daq. read more

Food takes forever and a day to make and has been overcooked twice, the second time barely had breading hanging on and was super dark and crunchy, and they wouldn't give me a refund and wait 40 mins just for catfish nuggets, and cashier had an attitude, I've had 2 bad experiences, I thought after the remodeling and stuff that it would be different but nope definitely never going back read more

This place was a 30 minute drive from us but WELL worth it. They don't have many tables on the inside so you will have to wait for one to open up if you want to eat there. They have several different daiquiri flavors you can choose from as well as their house combinations. I got the very sexy and it was soooo good and not expensive. Now the food was the best part. We had: Catfish nuggets and fries - fried to perfection! They were seasoned just right and taste so good and fries were nice and crispy Boudin balls- AMAZING! They had so much flavor, even if you have never tried boudin balls are have tried them but didn't like it try it here these are the best I have ever had Fried Cajun corn- it's seasoned corn has a great taste would have loved it even more if it was a little spicy but still great Crab cakes - decent they were not the best thing we had but would still order again The carb box let me a little upset. But that's more so my fault for getting crab legs out of season. The flavor was great and it came with sausage, potatoes and corn but the crab legs were super small and didn't have much meat in them at all. I would just say make sure you get them in season read more

Riding through Mesquite because none of my friends answered their phones and I was hungry. Saw this place called Mardi Gras Daiquiri and I've been waiting some fish so I pulled up let me just give them a try because one thing for sure you can't never mess up a daiquiri even if the food not right is what I'm thinking in my head. Whelp the food didn't disappoint the customer service didn't disappoint the atmosphere didn't disappoint HANDS down I love this place and I live way on the other side of Dallas in the Bishop Arts District but I'm ALWAYS looking for new places that are chill with good food good drinks that give a lounge vibe feeling and this was the place. Finally a black owned restaurant that gives great service food that's very heartfelt and caring. Thanks to the young school that chased me down to give me my phone. Definitely will be back with my family and friends. read more

absolutely perfect everytime. if it's your first time getting a drink don't be afraid to ask for a daiquiri sample! they are so welcoming in here and it feels like you're at a family members home with a fire daiquiri set up. everytime i want me a quick drink after a long day of work or on a relaxing off day i come by here and know i will never be disappointed (except when they're closed and it's their off day of course lol) the food is bizzare on the taste buds, catfish thick, shrimp crunchy, fries seasoned. one is a happy camper when they come here. read more

Mardi Gras Daiquiri never disappoint! The Daiquiris are not weak and will give you a buzzzzz, at least for me. When I'm in the area I always stop and get the boudin balls. OMG they are really good, and was told they're good with the beans and rice. I've tried the catfish too and it' was good and moist. It's always a good amount of people ordering food when I come. This place is great to come for a cold slush daiquiri and Louisiana food vibe. read more

Shrimp was perfect. Daiquiris were lit. They had me right. The DJ was playing all the right hits and tbh it's fit for a grown crowd.

We ordered the gumbo and the catfish nugget plate. We thought everything was good. The portions on the plate are very generous and we could have eaten just that one dish as our meal. I ordered a frozen drink. This is my second visit there and the person waiting on me has always suggested some interesting combinations other than the straight drink from the machines. I love this! Great, friendly service. Worth a try for sure. read more

If you know me, then you know I love a good strong Daiquiri but living in Plano my options are pretty much anywhere but close to me. Luckily, I have a friend in Mesquite who recommend we stop by Mardi Gras Daiquiris since her & her boyfriend had previously stopped by and enjoyed their drinks. Upon entering the first thing my eyes drew to was this beautiful hanging ball light they have for decor. Might I add the decor and finishes overall are spot on. They give a good vibe to the place -- way better than all the other places I've been. Next, was figuring out what drink mix to get. First step was letting the staff know I was allergic to pineapples so I needed to knock out whichever ones might get to me. Luckily, Jazmine and Chyna were very helpful in helping me pick out a mix to try, they even let me sample a few -- this was me more so making sure if it did have pineapple juice it wasn't too strong. I didn't flare up after any so I ended up getting a mix of: Hurricane Punch, Octane & Dallas Punch. Yes ladies ! The daiquiri was strong & right on point with the seafood I paired it with later. My friend also got 5 lbs of crawfish and said they were just right not too spicy or overpowering. Although I am relocating, I hope to be able to come back by soon to try some of their food as well. So yes, you need to make that drive wherever you are & come give them a try. read more

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing! The food, Customer Service and all was amazing! Highly Recommend if you're in the area to check them out!

This place was so pleasant to go to. Great music, lively and relatively close to where I live etc so it actually was pretty great to find this hidden gem. Let's start with the positives: the food came out hot, the customer service of the host were pretty attentive and even the staff at the door greeted us and offered to take our picture. The drinks had a great slush to them and they had a variety of flavors to choose from. I mixed mine with peach, mango and margarita and loved it. I believe the cost for the size I got a medium was $7 and my food possibly $10+ because the overall total was $19. Although there were few negatives ; have to realistic and state them. My food came out really slow and I had to go up and remind them of my order. That in mind working in the food industry you know it gets really busy and sometimes things fall through the cracks, was not intentional and they got it out pretty fast after . Nonetheless, nothing is ever perfect but BIG BUT, I still love this place and will be coming back! Overall great experience, kudos to the owners! read more

I didn't eat while here. I was super disappointed that they advertised crawfish for today through Sunday on social media but when my party and I got there we were told that crawfish is served on Saturday and Sunday. There were other items to choose from but our tastebuds were set on crawdaddies. In any event, we ordered a Daquiris for our trouble. There were a variety to choose from in which the kind bartenders allow us to taste as many as we wanted. One bartender kindly asked what type of taste I was wanting. After receipt of this information she kindly recommended a drink. The drinks I find were rather strong. The ambience was good and the service was friendly. There were about six big screen televisions to view. The maximum capacity for this establishment is 65. read more

Walk into a building nestled between two businesses and it's like stepping into colorful world filled with joy and laughter. The music is loud and enjoyable. There are plenty of televisions mounted high with different shows on each to give the place variety. The decor is obvious of the love for the New Orleans Saints NFL Team (note to self, hang out here when the Cowboys whip their as/$haft don't you say that lol). There is a nice romantic style seating area on the left side of the entrance with the bar neat & clean behind. The front of the bar doubles as a walk up to go order stand (wish they put a couple of stools in front of the bar) and there are a few high tables and chairs opposite the bar. The lady behind the bar was nice and eager to take my order. She has proficient knowledge of the menu and was able to answer all of my questions. My suggestion to her is to offer Customers samples because I had to ask for one. Now the food and drink review....dundt dundt dah duuuuudnt Fried Chicken Wing Basket - 3 gigantic well seasoned chicken wings were crunchy and super juicy. Normal portion (hate when places give you 5lbs of fries that you end up throwing away ) of crinkle fried fried golden brown were crispy and seasoned pretty good and a pitiful looking toast hehe. ***add or offer a jalapeño with the chicken basket*** Peach Bellini - 32oz ohhhhh yeah! So cold smooth and sweet. Can't taste the liquor but a few sips will have you flat on your back - DRINK RESPONSIBLY!! The to go drinks are sealed with a sticker to protect the Business (Customers be careful with Texas open container laws) ***seal the drinks in a tamper proof bag*** Overall this place is pretty good! They need to market and increase their social media appearance if they want longevity. I will return and can't wait! read more

Tried to go to get some daiquiris and seafood with kiddos and my honey -fail. 21 and up only so I went inside for a quick to go daiquiri which I saw some people walking out w their drinks to go. My honey kept kids while I went inside which also seemed like a bar with a bouncer letting me in. It was dark, loud music, and a couple tv scenes w football. I walked over to where all the yummy daiquiris were and had a sample of a couple diff flavors. I ended up getting a pina colada mix with New Orleans punch-very yummy!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. I've been to both locations in Mesquite and Forney. They both are nice and give off good vibes. I've never had an issue with any of the food I've order and I'd been to both locations over five times. Their daiquiris are really good and have plenty of options to choose from. I never know what I want, I just tell whoever is making my drink that I like fruity drinks and they always make me something different each time and it's always good!! Service 10/10. I would definitely recommend. read more

The ambiance is so pacific and welcoming. The staff is always so courteous and smiling. The daiquiris are all so delicious. It's the food that does not taste good to me. The oxtails are very good but all of their fried food is extremely salty. The first time I tried the fried pickles I thought, "maybe they accidentally put in extra salt". I tried it again and it was still very salty (unedible). The fish basket, the fish is super salty and the fries are too. So sad because I wanted to love it so much and give them a 5-star review but I cant. read more
