Pappadeaux platter
Andrella B.

The food was ok. Not the best but not the worst. Me and my sister ordered the Pappadeaux platter which was suppose to have more shrimp and crawfish tails it definitely didn't have more shrimp as my boyfriend order the seafood platter and there was the same amount of shrimp. Also there were no crawfish on our platters. We notified the waiter who then bought us out plates of like warm crawfish. The restaurant was nice but unable to accommodate our group of 12. So we sat at 2 tables very far apart. The fish on our platters were fried well but had no flavor. The shrimp and crawfish fondue was really good though. 1seafood platter 1 Pappadeaux platter 1 shrimo and crawfish fondue and 2 Arnold palmers came to $121 and change. We left a $21 dollar tip as well bringing the total to $142 and some change.

Dinner Salad
Christina Y.

Great local chain with a wide variety of seafood options! The salad had a honey bacon which was interesting and paired well with the croutons. The oysters were large an tasty but I'd love a little more butter or sauce to dip in like New Orleans. The salmon, shrimp and scallops were delicious and a huge portion.

Crawfish platter
Bonnie W.

Service was good. Sat in a little booth at the bar with a great view of the restaurant. Food here is very good, I've been many times. This time, I apparently ordered goo? The manchego mashed potatoes were a giant blob on the plate surrounded by butter. The fish was very small portion, 4oz. I would not get this again and wouls not recommended this particular dish. Visually unappealing. I will be back and will get something better next time

I came here with my family to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday, and everything was wonderful! The food was really good, and our server did an amazing job--she stayed on top of everything the entire night. The music added to the vibe, with a great playlist that made the atmosphere even better. For an appetizer, I had the fried calamari and octopus which was perfectly crunchy and full of flavor. I ordered the seafood pasta for my main dish--it was delicious! My husband had the salmon with rice and a side of beans, and he said it was really good as well. The drinks were tasty too! Overall, I'll definitely be back. I love southern food--it's so comforting, and this spot did it right.

Pasta Mardi gras only chicken
Nathaniel H.

If i could 10 stars it would be! Absolutely amazing! Got a appetizer of Garlic cheese bread amazingggg! I got crawfish trio and ate every bit of it. My wife got the pasts Mardi gras and she was stunned by how good it was!!! My son got the parm buttered noodles with the chicken strips . He ate all of it at the age of 4!!! Said it was soooo delicous!!! Also ordered the turtle brownie with ice cream and raspberries was very sweet but it was delicous! I got told that it was going to be a 2 hr wait, they were super busy!!! Butttt It only took 23 mins.... like whattttt. The building was nice the staff was excellent and very helpful!!! I will be back several times! Kinda expensive $120 for 2 adults and 1 four year old without a tip but in my family's opinion welllllll worth the price!!!!!!

The Pappadeaux at DFW was surprisingly a pleasant experience. The Shrimp and Scallop Orecchiette Pasta was absolutely delightful. The perfect ratio of sauce to shell allowed me to enjoy the succulent, perfectly seared and seasoned scallops and shrimp. Likewise, the shells were prepared and cooked nicely. The asparagus was as fresh as it was crisp and the subtly elevated plating added a touch of elegance. A great option at DFW for fine dining quality at a modest price. This coupled with great bar service from Yvette and a knowledgeable Chef duo in Carlos and James, this gem is worthy of 5.

32oz gumbo
Kristina W.

The gumbo is pretty good, not as tasty/spicy as real Louisiana gumbo but has pretty good-sized chunks of celeries, shrimps & sausages. It is on pricey side at about $32 for a $32oz container. Service is on the slow side.

Fried Calamari & Octopus (sm)
Hannah N.

We had our office Christmas dinner here this year. I made a reservation but due to traffic came a little late. They worked us back in after a little wait. This place, like other locations, gets busy in the evenings. On top of that, there were a couple of other company groups as well. We were seated not long after but service was definitely slow. We ordered the fried calamari and fondeuax for appetizers. Both were great as usual. I ordered my favorite Atlantic Salmon Alexander which I had been looking forward to all week. Halfway through my meal, I realized something was off. To my dismay, I noticed I had been eating the wrong entree. My plate was being consumed by my boss and I was eating his Mississippi Catfish Opelousas. To be fair, both dishes look similar and we had a good laugh about it. We must have been too busy talking and laughing that we didn't noticed the server placing the wrong plates in front of us. There was a certain table nearby that was excessively loud and we tried to not let it ruin our mood. There were times we had to shout at each other to be heard. While I think it's great to go out and enjoy your party's company, consideration for other diners in a certain setting should be practiced. The staff could've been tact about this. Other than that, we enjoyed our meal and our company. This location was central for everyone but I still enjoy the Bedford location service and atmosphere better.

Pasta Mardi Gras
Francisco R.

I had a good lunch at pappadeaux! We were a large group but our server was quick and attentive. The atmosphere was also pretty fun. Though I had the lunch pasta Mardi Gras it was a large portion so I'm glad I had leftovers to take home for dinner. I definitely recommend!

Fried calamari and octopus.
Paula W.

I ordered the shrimp etouffee and my date ordered the crawfish etouffee. I was disappointed in the rue as I thought it was somewhat greasy. I did enjoy the fried calamari and the shrimp. The calamari was cooked to perfection and I would highly recommend ordering this as an appetizer. Our meal came with a huge loaf of bread and butter that was delicious. The portion and size of the shrimp in my etouffee was impressive. My meal portion was enough to feed two people. The service and the staff were very friendly. The ambience was casual and relaxing. We were greeted with southern hospitality. Honestly, the food was good, but I have had better there. However, the friendly staff and service were beyond exceptional.

Will they accommodate a low sodium diet?

In no special way. Most of the food is prepped and salted. They have a gluten free menu.

Do they take reservations? And are they needed?

They do -

Anything here for non seafood eaters? I'm asking because my bf is allergic

It depends on the allergy and it's severity. Someone with an anaphylactic allergy to shellfish should stay away from places full of their allergen.

Second floor is the event center. Third is the cigar lounge which is highly lit, Smokey and super sexy. Jack nickleson included! The basement is the speakeasy.

The noise level was extremely high...we literally had to yell just to have a conversation with each other. Service was also very slow. It took about 15 minutes just to be acknowledged at the bar, and close to 30 minutes to actually receive a drink. When I finally ordered, I told the bartender to make her favorite drink. She made something that included raw egg whites (which I later learned is common in certain cocktails), but it wasn't mentioned or explained at the time. A few hours later, I became very sick...vomiting and dealing with what felt like severe food poisoning all night and through the next 24 hours. After looking into it, I suspect it may have been related to the raw egg used in the drink. Just something to be aware of if you're ordering drinks like a whiskey sour or anything that may include egg whites. After getting our receipt (which you need for the speakeasy entry code), we checked out the speakeasy portion, but the vibe there wasn't great either..pretty must the same as the other part of the bar. We ended up leaving within about five minutes. Overall, the experience didn't live up to the hype for us....between the noise, long wait times, and how we were treated, it just wasn't enjoyable. For comparison, the bar next door, Archibald, felt much more welcoming. Maybe regulars have a different experience, but as first-time guests, we were not impressed.

For most others, there's plenty of accessible parking and it's kinda tucked away in it's own lot. The burger offered was the "Our Taphouse" - a dry ranch seasoned beef patty with shredded cheese and topped with carmelized onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and bacon jam. The burger was definitely good. It's messy since there are some more toppings prone to falling out. I will say that in terms of taste, it was a bit too sweet for my preference. I think it was the combination of carmelized onions and bacon jam that made it too much for me that it overwhelmed the savoriness that I'd prefer to be the main flavor with the burger. This time I didn't dine in personally but I will say that the place looks like it has a nice vibe to it, especially outside. It looks like there's plenty of seating with an area for musicians to perform. I'm looking forward to coming back one day and maybe watching a game and getting a drink.
