Better than Expected. Pinchin Crab has been around for a few years and I always drive by it when I'm in the Baytown area. On one rainy night when I didn't feel like driving into town, I decided it was time to try out this restaurant. One more reason I chose Pinchin Crab is that it is conveniently located near many of the hotels in Baytown and was 5 minutes from where I was staying. Pinchin Crab is a popular Family-Run business serving boli-in-bag seafood as their main attraction. The menu has fried fish and seafood as well as steamed and broiled options. I ordered for my meal a steamed crab and crawdad combo with cajun seasoning. The bag came to the table in about 15 minutes and it was piping hot when I opened the bag. The food was cooked to perfection and the level of spice was right. The crawdads tasted as fresh as they could and the crab tasted fresh. The bag also came with corn on the cob. At first, I thought that I did not order enough, but when I finished the bag, I was stuffed. The food was very good and the service was excellent. The staff were friendly and I had no issues throughout the meal. Overall a great affordable local option for boiled and fried seafood in the Baytown area.

Happened to know that my friend owns this location in Baytown (LA Crawfish is a franchise by the…read moreway!) when I was in Houston in January! I get to try the crawfish pho that seems to be people's favorite on Yelp. Finish the bowl so fast because it is so full of flavors. There are a bunch of small crawfish, all peeled inside, and the broth is so tasty with a thick layer of garlic butter floating on top! I ask to try the sauce, so they bring out a small bowl of it to dip the crawfish with. And I end up adding a spoon-full of that sauce in my pho, too! Pictured are a big bag (3lbs) of crawfish in Garlic Butter sauce (same sauce that they use to add flavor to the pho broth. This one is very spicy, so I try only one crawfish!), 1 small bag of the Hot and Sour sauce, some Chicken Wings, Waffle Cut Sweet Potato Fries, Cheesy Crawfish Rolls, and Beignets. I didn't try the wings and the fries so couldn't speak of that, but heard the wings were a bit too salty. Overall, I'm very surprised and pleased with the experience! The best part is the crawfish here is live all year round. 5 stars for the crawfish pho alone at this Baytown locatio from me!

I think this is now called Happy Crawfish. I've only ordered Crawfish from here, so my 4 star…read morereview is regarding the Crawfish and the restraunt. I ordered at the counter. The food came out quick. The crawfish tasted just as good as any other place. Maybe I've had better a few times. The atmosphere isn't amazing or anything. I think this place is good and deserves 4 stars. A good option for crawfish.

Stuffed flounder was amazing and well priced! Snack attack has a great stuffed crab!Great views on…read morethe ship channel! Our service was a little slow but overall a great lunch 5/5.

I have never ever been so disappointed with Monument Inn than I was yesterday and let me tell you…read morewhy. But first the good stuff: our server was fantastic. The Snack Attack appy was good. Friend said his Baked Stuffed Shrimp was good. I had the Mahi Mahi with the Pontchartain sauce. The fish was dry. The sauce was bland and seemed like the recipe was not yet finished. I didn't eat much, asked for a to go bag as I LOVE leftovers, but frankly it was not good enough to take home. The veggies were good but who takes home only the veggies without the main course? We were a party of two and were given one roll though we had two cinnamon rolls which were also good. I ordered a Lemon Drop Martini and it arrived less than half full. I have never received a half a glass Lemon Drop martini. I noticed others ordering the Lemon Drop martinis an all had a full martini glass. Since I had only 1/2 of a martini, I ordered another with the request of a full glass martini. The other glass was a little bit more filled than the first one. Really odd and the taste was not worth the effort of ordering. I noticed the Lemon Drop Martini came with a surcharge. Meaning I was billed for the martini and then another misc charge. I have never been charged a surcharge for a Lemon Drop martini. The menu does not say there is a surcharge. Charge what you are going to charge on one line, in total, like everyone else does OR explain yourself and teach the 20 year old server the answer so she is aware and can share with her customers. So I asked for the manager. Cameron huffed on over like he was in a super bad mood and serving up a huge dose of bad attitude unbecoming of a restaurant manager. Cameron came over all loaded for bear and went to the wrong table. . Funniest thing ever and I wish I had that on video. I politely inquired about the surcharge for the Lemon Drop martini and was told "that's the way it's been for 8 years and we are not going to change it for you." Apparently when you order the menu item of a Lemon Drop martini you are charged for a shot PLUS the up charge of placing the shot into a martini glass. None of this is explained on the menu. Perhaps state that when ordered because I don't work for Monument Inn and am not privvy to this special wackadoodle way of charging their customers for a martini listed on the menu. Then to be almost attacked as Cameron was apparently perturbed that a paying customer had the audacity to question about this insane way of pricing. I had enough of his belligerent and argumentative behavior because Cameron was doubling down with his less than stellar attitude. As such, I told Cameron he was about the rudest person I have encountered in this service industry and dismissed him. No customer deserves that kind of treatment. Thank Cameron's inappropriate interaction for the one star which Yelp forces us to give. Otherwise I'd not given a star at all. Cameron's nastiness ruined the entire experience. Well that and the overcooked fish with the lackluster Pontchartain sauce. Stick to their fried food menu items which is where this place shines. Oh and don't order the Lemon Drop martini.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE SEAFOOD HERE IT WAS INCREDIBLE!!! I got the huachinango entero... wow. sister…read moregot a torta - it was delicious. parents got tostada and shrimp cocktail just glorious!!! I LOVE THIS PLACE AND THE SERVICE WAS INCREDIBLE. a lil humid but i mean thats everywhere in houston. but will definitely be back

Very disappointed!!! Didn't want to drive far to eat mariscos and this spot had so many good…read morereviews so I decided to give it a try! And was very disappointed!!! From start to finish!! Service wasn't good! When we went in, nobody welcomed you in or even assisted you in sitting.. we were lost and just decided to wave hands to a guy who I believe was the owner and moved our shoulder Ana hands like "where?" He pointed to spots like "anywhere!" Ok, let's just sit down and see if food makes up the rudeness. I was WRONG!! When we sat down, a lady who never made eye contact seem very agitated and in a hurry to not even slow down and listen to our order!!! Her eyes and body kept moving away while we were placing an order, rude!!! I was looking around the place and it seems like it has been here for quite a while so I wanted to see if the food was the reason because definitely the customer service??! WASN'T IT! Food arrived and the caldo de mariscos that my husband order was the size of a dish for a child!!! Lacked flavor!! And had ramen noodle size shrimps!!! Ridiculous!!! And big chunks of potato!!! I ordered the wrapped bacon shrimp plate and it's NOT the way it's originally made!! It only had jalapeño and shrimp and reheat/refried bacon!!! It was old and you could taste and see it!!NEVER AGAIN!!! Service!! And food go hand in hand and it was horrible!!! The ambience was just bland, no good enjoyable feeling at all!! Advice to clean the window separating the tables!! Come on it doesn't take that long!!! And the chairs too!!! Owner you should be ashamed because it shows you don't take pride in your business at all!!! Mariscos is very delicate and you serving people food that's not up to the standards it should be!?? Is dangerous and this place definitely doesn't pass food and hygiene
