    The difference between the butters they originally brought for my crab legs and finally the correct one.
    Dianne P.

    Service, food and drinks were amazing as usual. One of my favorite places to eat when visiting the area. Absolutely love the new restaurant and everything they have done to spruce it up compared to the old one! Only weird thing was, I got cold butter with my crab legs. Since that is all I ever eat here and I am used to melted clearer butter. I was thrown off. I then asked for a new one and they brought out 2 smaller room temperature butters. The waitress noticed what the kitchen brought me and I explained that the butter has never been a bright yellow and cool before. She came back with what I needed. I felt like a heel, but I tip good‍!

    In two weeks of eating at a different restaurant every day in BCS, this was my favorite. Gotta start with the building - these guys are COMMITTED! (And the old location across the street looks like an actual shipwreck.) Inside, everything fits the theme and is appealing. They don't just offer Cajun cuisine - they have Cajun waiters! (At least, ours was.) The Jalapeno Poppers were HUGE - see photo of me holding one; it's nearly grenade-size. I had the Crawfish Combo, and thoroughly enjoyed both the etouffee and the fried crawfish tails. As Arnold famously said, "I'll be back."

    The decor goes with the Theme, ordered crab cakes and hush puppies. Carson was my waiter. Was disappointed when my crab cakes came out, flat discs! Looked like a frozen disc and was just heated up! The shipwreck sauce was too spicy for me! Carson suggested a dairy dill vinaigrette, it had Parmesan in it and overpowered the crabcakes, but it was a lot better than the spicy shipwreck sauce . The crab cakes tasted just okay, I was expecting a lot more in appearance! The hush puppies served with cocktail sauce, they were spicy, I think they had jalapeños in them! I ordered a tea and had peach added, Carson made sure I was happy with my tea! He was very assertive and tended to needs!

    I have always enjoyed Shipwreck Grill. Today we tried the new restaurant. I've got to say that I really miss the old place. It felt more like an old shrimp boat and the food was always good. That said, the new restaurant was nicely decorated, clean and the service was great. The issue this time was the food. While our server was attentive, the food took a really long time to come out. I ordered Snow Crab Legs, and boy was I disappointed! The legs were discolored and had no meat in them at all. They were totally inedible and I was really surprised that the kitchen would send those out! The manager did apologize and told me that they were overcooked. I was so disappointment, that I didn't order anything else. The rest of the crew had fried oysters and shrimp. It was just okay. I guess Shipwreck is more of a shrimp and oyster venue. I had thought since they were a seafood restaurant that they would have decent crab legs. Next time, I would definitely stick with their fried staples.

    Crawfish is the best in town. Boiled shrimp!! Different types of oysters!!! Blue Moon!!

    We have been here 5 times. Between business and family meals this place is always great ! The servers have been different and vary in experience but they always do fantastic ! The food is always good and fresh. If you visit, give the appetizers; hush puppies and boudin balls a shot, you won't regret it.

    Lovely server, relaxed atmosphere, and good food. Awesome decor everywhere. Will definitely come back to try more.

    Buffalo crawfish, diablos shrimp, hush puppies, beans, and fries. Really good!
    Ryan C.

    Tried this for the first time ever the other day and was not disappointed! I got the buffalo crawfish and diablos shrimp with fries. Now I want to try their other options. Everything I had was good. We also got some queso with crawfish. It was really good. My boys had a corn dog and burger. My wife had a grilled chicken sandwich and enjoyed it very much. The tables inside are really really small for 4 people which is my only complaint. The waitress we had was really nice and helpful. Next time we'll probably come back when we can sit outside and enjoy the weather. But OH WE WILL BE BACK!

    EXCELLENT! I did not expect to find something like this in a small small town. We were on our way…read moreto college station and wanted to get something to eat as we got closer to our destination. We checked Yelp for something other than Mexican food and this place had really great reviews. As soon as we walked it we knew it was going to be good. The menu isn't too large, which to me meant that they have spent a lot of time perfecting the things that are on the menu. The service was really good and as soon as we sat down, we ordered a couple of sodas and the Boudin balls. We took a couple minutes to look at the menu and everything looked really good, but the spicy chicken sandwich was really calling out to both of us. So we ordered those one with potato salad and one with rice. The Boudin balls were delicious. They were pretty large in size and the sauce that it came with had a little bit of a kick to it. My favorite thing was that it was mostly meat on the inside and the flavor was incredible. Same with the chicken sandwich. It also had a kick and by the time I was done my mouth was pretty warm. I thought the potato salad was a great way to help cool it off, and it was just as good as the sandwich. I loved the batter on the chicken, and I thought the bun was toasted perfectly. This would be a place I would go to regularly if I lived in the area. Parking was pretty tight and most of the spots were taken up so we did park in a spot we weren't supposed to, but luckily we didn't get towed!

    Whew! I'm a Mississippi native so Louisiana is like our great aunt and New Orleans is our first…read morecousin. I knew when we pulled up the food was going to be good. When I tell you the spirit of Louisiana and NOLA was in the place! So you will miss the place if you aren't paying attention. The sign is small and the building looks like it used to be a church fellowship hall. It's not fancy and it's small, however, don't discount it. Don't judge a book by its cover and great things come in small packages. It's a family owned and run business. By the looks of it, it can probably seat 40 people and I'm pushing it with the number. However from the time you walk in until the time you leave, you feel like you're at your great aunt's house. It was five of us and when you walk in, it's seat yourself and first come, first serve. The food came out piping hot and cooked fresh. My husband and brother-in-law got the catfish platter with red beans and rice (no pork) and Mac-n-cheese. My sister and I got the Nawlins boil that had a crab cluster, shrimp, corn, potato, boiled egg and a sausage link. My nephew got a shrimp po-boy with fries. The food was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The fish and fries were crispy. The Mac-n-cheese isn't creamy but it isn't dry. Perfect amount of cheese and flavor. The red beans and rice had the perfect balance of flavor. The boil...my goodness the boil. They have the amount of the boil down to a science to make it a full meal. At first glance, I didn't think it would be seasoned well because the season looked like a dry rub. It wasn't saucy or juicy - until I took my first bite. I almost walked to the kitchen to kiss the cook. They are not skimpy on any of the food either. Even the po-boy had an overload of shrimp. When we were there, it was a packed house. There was also a large party who was rather disgruntled - not because of the service or food but because they were impatient. Remember this is a family owned business with 2 servers and maybe 3 cooks that cook to order. So if you're looking for quick food, this isn't the place. If you have time to sit, enjoy some great food with great company in a casual home style restaurant...this is your place.
