    Julianne, "the great waitress "!!

    Had an opportunity to celebrate September family birthdays here last night. The food was good but I want to brag on our waitress, Julianne. She was an amazing waitress with a lot of patience. When go go there ask for her she is an amazing waitress with a great personality.

    Becca was a wonderful server! Everything came out hot and fresh! I meant to take a pic when the food arrived, but jumped right into it! LOL! We get the same thing all the time. We spent $121.51 on Shrimp fondue yo go, 2 teas, 2 Sampler Platters. Delicious!! Ambiance is family friendly.

    Grilled Griled Octopus is amazing!!!

    Love papas seafood. Consistent great service. If they make a mistake, they will make up for with comps. But that is rare. The food quality is always excellent. The crab stuffing is to die for if you are a crab lover. A little pricy, but you get what you pay for. In Papa's case, that means quality seafood. If you've never been to one, go soon. You will definitely be back.

    Let's start with the incredible hospitality. Pablo's service was unmatched. Courteous and kind. The food was fresh and their menu selections made it difficult to decide. Definitely will visit again!

    Off the menu crab fingers

    My husband and I visited Pappas Seafood for a quick bite. The place is very classy, and the staff is great. We started with a cup of shrimp gumbo and got complimentary bread and butter; the bread was fresh and delicious. The gumbo was very tasty, with good‑sized shrimp. We also ordered something off the menu: crab fingers with fries. The crab fingers came in this magnificent Alexander sauce, truly finger‑licking good! We'll definitely be back to try some entrées. Great experience at Pappas.

    Splitting the entree after the appetizer was  perfect for two and so damn good.

    Excellent Pre-cruise vacation Halloween dinner experience. Driving from DFW we stayed at a hotel across the highway and searched for a good food and somewhere we haven't been. What a great surprise to have a friendly and smart server (Cynthia) who guided the menu and a wonderful experience. Besides drinks and conversation we had some delicious oysters and the grouper special that was cooked to perfection. Check out the picture. Highly recommend this place.

    Incredibly fresh sea food. Some of the best grilled octopus I've ever had. The Caesarsalad dressing was incredible made with high quality olive oil and the salmon was fresh and cooked a perfect medium rare

    Wild-Caught Grouper & Jumbo Crab

    A bit on the pricey side but what do you expect from the Pappas? Fresh and Quality you can rely on. Grouper is one of my go to fish dishes and this did not disappoint. Sub in the Butter Potatoes vs the Spinach and it elevates the meal.

    I've been familiar with the Pappas bros. brand since I was a child, and in my opinion, there are some things Pappas restaurants get right, but there are also shortcomings and room for improvement here and there. We visited this location twice over the years to celebrate a family member's birthday. The first visit, a few years ago, was awesome! But the second visit, a few weeks ago, left a lot to be desired. Service was actually great in the beginning, and then, inexplicably, it quickly went downhill. The server hardly ever revisited the table once he acquired more tables, so I asked other members of the waitstaff for everything from correct containers (I was given just a plastic cup for fondue, lol) to bread (to go). My family member enjoyed their birthday lunch, but I am kind of a tough customer and this visit was below the usual standards of Pappas restaurants. Overall [3/5]. 1. Bread Service [4/5] - You could tell the bread here was baked a tad too long. It was somewhat springy, but not as memorable or well made as previous visits. 2. Strawberry Lemonade [2/5] - The Lemonade was neither tart nor did it have a good strawberry flavor. It was just pink lemonade, literally. The glass it was served in is also shorter compared to the last visit before this. 3. Crawfish & Shrimp Fondue [3/5] - This is what I often order when visiting a Pappadeaux or Pappas Seafood House. Something was missing, perhaps garlic or other herbs and spices. It just fell flat. However, the shrimp and crawfish were cooked well. 4. Garlic Bread [3/5] - Tough, overdone. Not up to usual standards. Hard to enjoy fondue with subpar garlic bread. I didn't eat much of either. 5. Shrimp Gumbo [3/5] - This was served first as an appetizer. I thought it lacked warmth (room temperature) and flavor. Gumbo should always be served hot. The roux/base tasted off. I couldn't detect thyme, bay leaves or mirepoix. It had a watered down taste. Texture of the shrimp was good, though. 6. Key Lime Pie [5/5] - This was actually a great slice of pie, which a family member who was celebrating their birthday shared with me. The berries were a nice touch! 7. Service [2/5] - See above. 8. Atmosphere [3/5] - Kind of boring this time. No laughter anywhere.

    Sunday afternoon lunch was delightful

    Love the fresh Shrimp Cobb Salad, very generous portions of shrimp, bacon, blue cheese, egg, and on a crispy bed of lettuce!

    I am already a fan of Pappadeaux so I had to try this location for Pappas Seafood. I love the nautical theme. Very clean bathrooms and private booths. The service was great, I spoke with many staff members including the manager who welcomed me warmly! I ordered the fruits de mar 10/10, Salmon Alexander 10/10, Glass Slipper cocktail 8/10, 3 Wheeled Motion cocktail 10/10, and the pecan pie 9/10. Overall great experience and very conveniently close to the Houston Space Center.

    Salmon with Broccolili

    Ambience is great, food is delicious like always. Unfortunately as I returned to my favorite restaurant, I was notified that my favorite dish (grilled salmon with asparagus) they have replaced the asparagus with the Broccolili

    House Salad
    Jessica S.

    Husband and I went for lunch, our food and service was excellent! Linda was our server, she was very friendly and polite! We each had a house salad with everything that includes fresh crisp lettuce, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese, and some of the best croutons! When we ordered we let Linda know that we were going to split the seafood platter and she had the cooks split it up for us, which was nice! We did split the stuffed crab and stuffed shrimp! They did have some huge lobsters in one of their tanks and one of these days, I am going to order one! It's a great place for as small as a party of two or several people!

Jacob and Matt took exceptional care of us and made our experience so much fun. Their energy, attentiveness, and hospitality were unmatched. We started with a dozen raw oysters and a half dozen Oysters Bienville, and baby... when I tell you they were to DIE for! Fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I ordered the Chef's Special: Linguine Alfredo with shrimp and crawfish, topped with fried red snapper, served with green beans and garlic bread. Whew! Every bite was seasoned to perfection. My wife ordered the Salmon Latiffe with Brussels sprouts and rice, and it was BOMBBBB. Cooked perfectly and full of flavor. And of course, 4 reposado tequila lemon drops later, we were having the time of our lives! The drinks were amazing, the food was phenomenal, and the service was exceptional. Overall, this was an incredible lunch date with my wife. Amazing food, amazing drinks, and even better service. We will absolutely be back! 10/10 highly recommend.

Oysters were good, but they went too fancy on mignonette sauce, stick with simple red wine and shallots. Favorite was the crab and asparagus! Abby was amazing as well!

This time, we went to Floyd's--and it exceeded expectations. I ordered the Fisherman's Stew, a generous combination of calamari, octopus, shrimp, fish, and more. It was excellent. Although it presents like a soup, the texture is far richer and more substantial. The deep, robust tomato base gave it an almost Italian character--layered, comforting, and full of flavor. We also tried the chimichurri oysters, which were fresh, clean, and beautifully briny. The salmon--ordered medium--and the one-pound portion of crawfish were equally impressive. The salmon, in particular, was cooked to perfection--tender, moist, and well-seasoned. To be honest, the exterior of the restaurant is not especially impressive. At first glance, it gives the impression of a small, casual spot where you might expect overcooked, overly salty, fried seafood. That assumption was completely wrong--and I found myself quietly apologizing for the misjudgment. Inside, the atmosphere is inviting, cozy, and clean. As for the service, our waitress was adequate--neither especially warm nor unfriendly. She wasn't particularly fast, but she wasn't slow either. She simply did her job. While the service wasn't remarkable, it certainly wouldn't keep us from returning or recommending this place. Floyd's is a genuine hidden gem--one I would gladly visit again.

The Dawg Shrimp were excellent and cooked to perfection, not overcooked! The Dawg sauce dip was phenomenal, initially I thought it would be oily, not at all!. I asked for some to take home.

Suggestion eat while hot! The atmosphere was consistent with happy hour traffic. The bartender was Amber, she was pleasant and attentive. I recommend this Restaurant. GN3

On that as I sat down meeting up with some friends that had gotten there probably 30 minutes ahead, they mentioned that crawfish was really good. Even though I wasn't really hungry and yelp reviews/pics didn't really arise my interest I decided to give it a go with just 2 pounds and some sausage, corn, potatoes. I was excited when they brought the crawfish because of how good the gumbo was, but it didn't live up to the gumbo at all. First time I have ever picked medium heat garlic butter with extra spice on the side as heart burn has been an issue as of late. Such a disappointment, they were small...it's April, they looked like January/February crawfish. Didn't taste like garlic butter, no garlic I could even see, more like buttery sugar. And you didn't even really taste that till you were deep into the boil. Even my friends said the boil was off. Hard to trust cajun places with asian style.
