    JT burger

    Their food was good. The pizza was very filling. Fried fish was really good. And you have to try the cheese curds

    Located 1.6 miles off I-10 In Anahuac sits The Crawfish Place. As soon as your foot steps inside you're greeted with genuine "Hey Yall"s and "Welcome in"s by the staff. The decor is laid back sports bar with elegant rustic designs in the restrooms. Neon signs decorate the walls along with multiple TVs playing different sports from drag racing, water sports, football and more. Very family friendly environment during the day. At night I can tell it's a relaxed feel with lots of indoor and outdoor seating and pool tables. They offer a good variety of beers on tap from domestics to IPAs. When coming to eat make sure you come hungry and ready for a to go box. My burger was almost a full pound cooked to perfection. It was piled high with all "the fixins", and I opted to add bacon and fried egg to mine. They definitely don't skimp on the bacon! I got mine served with hush puppies that had just the right amount of seasoning without being overly spicy. The staff, the atmosphere and food make The Crawfish Shack one of those places you come back to time and time again.

    Had the pimpin burger, it wasn't bad at all, I asked for medium and the patty was more well done so that sucked but besides that everything was good and portion was more then enough. The service was great and the place looked clean and sanitary. They do charge a 3% fee for using card which is a little absurd since we're in a day and age where people hardly carry cash. Would've been a 5 star if the burger was cooked right but besides that would come back again.

    Clean and welcoming environment. Food was fresh and delicious. Service was very friendly. I would eat here again! Lots of food to choose from on the menu!

    Seafood platter...crawfish, hush puppies, catfish, shrimp. Cheese curds.

    Exceptional catfish light fluffy perfect. Staff extremely attentive. Had cheese curds for 1st time and loved. From NH and enjoyed TX hospitality. Even the side salad was incredible with boiled egg and the homemade ranch dressing was the best

    Receipt

    I don't mind paying $18.00 for a dinner when I get my money's worth but this is the second time and last that they overcharge me for small portions!! I suggest not going here if you want your money's worth

    What an excellent dive not far from the 10. From the outside, this would not have been a place I typically would have tried. Seriously, I sat outside and debated going into the older rundown building. I am so glad I did. We had fried crawfish and blackened shrimp that was excellent. We had tons of nicely seasoned appetizers. The fried green beans were great. There were lots of locals and many local beers on draft. While there is no ambiance in the bar/restaurant, check out the bathrooms. Both the women's and men's have different styles and if the restaurant was taken care of as thoughtfully as the restrooms, it would be an upscale experience. If we ever find ourselves driving through again we would definitely stop.

    I never would've expected to find food this good in Anahuac, especially for the prices! Huge selection of beers on tap and the staff is really helpful with trying to help you get a beer you'll like. The fried gator is some of the most tender I've ever had and tastes amazing too! Between our table we also had fried shrimp, fried catfish, blackened catfish, boudain balls, fried cheese curds, bacon wrapped jalapenos, and fried crawfish. Everything was delicious If you like it spicy, ask for a side of their Sriracha powder for your fries, onion rings, or anything else you want to give a little kick to.

    The BLT and burger were both good. A lot of food. Loved the tots! The menu is curiously large for such an out of the way location.

They serve beer only and the place was full of locals that knew each other. A minus for me is that it is very smoky. It's been years since I went in to a place that serves food wheee smoking was allowed. That may be a plus for some, but not me. The biggest plus was the food. Hubby had fried shrimp and oysters and I had had the wings, which were battered and fried, the jalapeno bites and the shrimp. The first two items were good, traditional bar food but the shrimp was out of this world good. I don't remember what it was called and my picture is after I ate most of them but the shrimp balls on garlic bread were to die for. Soooo good. The service was very friendly, and would go back if it wasn't so smoky.

Unfortunately it also allowed the biting flies to torture the poor service dog that was with us. And also it was hot. Sooo hot! We placed our orders for the shrimp basket and shrimp tacos. I requested fries but received grilled. Still tasty. And last time I was automatically served sweet potato fries (I fed the seagulls) but this time I was given a choice of fries. I chose regular fries. There were NO seagulls this time to feed my leftovers to. (Sad face) So we arrived at 4pm Drinks delivered at 4:20 Meals at 4:30 The LSU game was on so we were not in a rush. My only complaints were that the restroom wasn't tidy. Service is kinda slow. Even the covered room is open air (so HOT!) The selection of Ts and tanks had changed and I missed the seagulls. lol
