The corn was extremely sweet and the kernels were crisp. The potatoes were nice and soft but not over mushy. The crab legs were cooked very well, snapping in each place, and the meat pulled outout whole. The shrimp, my daughter said, was better than she's tasted at any other place locally. The only reason for the four stars, rather than the five is the cleanliness of the bathroom and the difficulty of getting out of the parking area. Other than that, the price was great, the food was excellent, and the staff was very amazing!

They didn't have cornbread (a little disappointing), but the hush puppies made a great substitute and soaked everything up perfectly. I also tried the boudin balls, which were flavorful and tasty, though I felt they leaned a little too heavy on the rice and could've used more meat. Still, very enjoyable overall. The staff was friendly and kind. Service was straightforward--no extra chatter or banter, which I do think is something missing from today's dining experience, especially with younger staff. If you leave here hungry, that's on you! I'd definitely come back the next time we're on this side of town.

Let me start off by saying I LOVE chicken cracklings. Being from Mississippi, we don't really have…read morespots that sell them fresh like Louisiana does. So whenever I'm passing through, stopping at Billy's Boudin & Cracklin or Randall's Cajun Foods is a must for me. I went to Randall's today. About 5 months ago, I stopped in and the cracklings had clearly been sitting for a while, they were tough. I explained my concern and even offered to pay extra just to have a fresh batch cooked. After going back and forth, they finally made them fresh, and they were exactly what I wanted. Fast forward to today, I called ahead and specifically asked for fresh cracklings. The young man on the phone said okay, no problem. I walk in 5 minutes later and there's already a bag waiting. I asked where they came from and she told me they were cooked that morning. That was an immediate no for me. If I'm spending $21 for a pound, I don't want tough, sitting all day cracklings. Go ahead and put those back. I ended up trying the boudin balls, big mistake. You could tell they had been sitting too. At that point, I didn't even have the energy to go back and forth or ask for a manager. Honestly, it should be a given. This picture is pepper jack boudin ball. Look how dry it is . Needless to say, I won't be back.

Also last week we bought a chicken and dumpling casserole that was horrible! Only dark meet was used! Please do not confuse this company with Randall' Captain Averies on Ferrand. The company that gave the poor service is Randall's on Sterlington Road. This owners purchased this place two years are.

The Catfish was good, crispy and they gave A LOT as well shared this one. The sides were not worth getting. We are from STL so we are used to onion , pickle and a slice of white bread - that would've made the meal a little better. I gave it 3 stars because I'm not sure about the rest of the options but the catfish is for sure worth going for and we will be back! The service was also fine, nothing great or terrible .
