I extremely wanted to like this place so badly. I found this place while scrolling on TikTok, and the videos seemed great, so we decided to try it. The look of the place was cute, and the music was great. But when we sat down in the booth, there was a dirty pink pillow in every booth. That should have been the first indication. I didn't understand the purpose of a pillow in a booth. And to think about how many kids or adults probably touched it, sat on it, or even played with that pillow--eww, gross. So we didn't touch it. It wasn't crowded at all, so we sat down. The server was okay. She explained some things about the menu. Essentially, we ordered wings as an appetizer and the boil second. Additionally, we ordered two drinks. When ordering the drinks, we first decided on the tropical tequila. Then a young man came back and told us it was just Red Bull and tequila. I was like, what? I went back to the menu, and it was supposed to have tequila, orange juice, lime, and a tropical energy drink. I appreciated the honesty, and he said he wanted to let us know because we couldn't send drinks back. So we ordered something else: a classic (basic) margarita and the GA-grown peach tea. The GA-grown peach tea tasted like water and peach medicine, and the margarita tasted like a sweet-and-sour juice mixture. Before ordering those two drinks, we had asked about two others on the menu, and he told us they didn't have the ingredients for either of them. He explained that they had just opened in April. It's now December, so I didn't understand how that correlated with us ordering drinks now. While waiting, the music was great, but it took a long time for the food to come out. And guess what--the wings and the boil came out at the same time. The waitress essentially never came back after taking our order. She came back to drop off the food, spoke to us, and then didn't return again until it was time to pay. We had to stop her in the middle of cleaning another table just to get what we needed. We ordered the Juicy Crab special. The flavor was good, and the wings were fine. The egg in the boil seemed a bit dry, which is crazy since it was in the boil mixture. The shrimp tasted a bit tough, as did the sausage. The corn was the best part, and the crab was okay. I'm not sure if it was the way it was cooked, but you know how when you snap a crab, it has that perfect crack? We struggled to crack the crab, but didn't think much of it at the time. About an hour after being there, both of us instantly ended up sick. We have an ER bill for proof. We will never eat here again.

************NEW LOCATION FOR EXPENSIVE SEAFOOD********* The crawfish were good but very expensive. I ordered 2 lbs of crawfish Juicy Special, Spicy which came with corn and potatoes. When it arrived it only had sauce toward the bottom of the bag and the crawfish tasted like water, I requested to have more sauce added and it was a little better but honestly a lot of liquid with flavoring. I am a dipper when it comes to seafood so I needed to make sure I had enough juice on the inside of the bag to dip my crawfish. Also ordered 6 Piece battered wings and got Buffalo Lemon Pepper sauce on the side. The wings are big , no seasoning but are very fresh. Then I ordered some French fries which tasted like they are cut fresh from potatoes but the grease was not hot enough so they were very soft and soggy. I reported it to my waiter so hopefully they can fix the issue before they bring them out to another guest. Then the drink was horrible. It looked nothing like the picture and surely was a waste of money . One lemon garnish and the bar options were very bear. Then to add insult to injury I requested the WIFI password and the hostess said she does not know, the manager did not know and everybody else did not know. I seen several oriental men bringing in supplies so I asked again if any of them know it. Then 30 minutes later the manager asked if I was okay, I requested WIFI password and she gave it to me right away. My waiter Jason A was very friendly, knowledgeable, kind and a absolute pleasure. I was very impressed with his service. Then the bill comes, Oh my goodness $58.45. What did I eat. The crawfish alone were $28.00. I did not request a special bag or anything I just wanted crawfish and he told me it came with corn and potatoes, I bet next time I will check the prices. It was the principle of the matter not the unexpected cost. $14.00 a pound is utterly ridiculous. Looks like I may be eating my seafood somewhere else. LORD HAVE MERCY. She receipt below

CITRUS HEAT CRAWFISH (medium heat): Strong kick when dipped in the juice at the bottom of the bag. Good flavor, but doesn't compare to my favorite crawfish flavor (The Mix at Crawfish Cafe). Large to medium-sized crawfish (late May). GARLIC BUTTER MUSSELS (mild heat): Really good! Large to medium-sized mussels. RAW OYSTERS: They were fine. Not bad, not particularly great. The word that came to mind was lackluster. I know they're gulf oysters, but I've had much better gulf oysters. Large to medium-sized. No small ones. Came with 1 small lemon slice and 4 small lime slices. LOBSTER BURGER: Really good! Great flavor! Good, brioche bun! Felt loaded! They didn't skimp on lobster meat. I saw a whole small claw in there! Appreciated the toothpick to keep it all together as much as possible. Would've been pretty messy without it. The FRIES were really good as well! Lightly crispy on the outside, soft inside, and well-seasoned. GUMBO: This was not very good. The rice was fully submerged under the gumbo, not on the side. The rice was also a little hard/undercooked. The meats were bland. The gumbo soup was very thin, like water (I prefer it thicker in consistency). On the bright side, the soup was flavorful.

When we arrived, we were greeted by the staff right away, and our server was very sweet and attentive, so the service was good overall. The ambiance was nice and made for a comfortable setting while we were there. However, the food was pretty mid. I ordered the spicy Cajun crawfish, and while the spice level was there, it lacked seasoning and didn't have the flavor I was expecting. On the other hand, the drinks were amazing. Whoever was working the bar did a phenomenal job. Overall, it was an okay experience. I'm not sure if I'd return, but to each their own.

I do think if they were more professional they could target diff demographic. anyways the only reason I gave 4/5 stars is because we waited over and hour to get our food and we were only 2nd in line. But the FOOD WAS FIRE

Katy is quite the trek for me, so when I knew I was going to be on that side of town, I looked up…read moresome saved locations and this one I knew would be the winner for the day, and it did not disappoint! Getting to the location was quite easy, parking was super easy as well, it is in a small shopping center. As I went inside, I could smell the food, and I knew it was going to be good. I was greeted by a younger guy who handed me the menu, but fortunately, I already knew what I wanted! Which was one of everything! But, I was solo on this day, so I had to have some restraint! I chose to go with the catfish basket, with 2 filets, fries (cajun), a side of mac and cheese, and a side of their specialty sauce that comes with crawfish! I had an appointment I was going to next, and I didn't think about how long it would take, but fortunately, it didn't take long at all. They drop the food to cook after you order, which I love!!! The catfish and fries were piping hot when they came out. Seasoned just perfectly for my taste! I'm glad I went with the two, so that I could take the other one home for later!!! I don't know how they season the fish, but keep doing what you're doing! I got the mac and cheese, it looked super good. It was cheesy and had the cheese pull that we all know and love. It wasn't my most favorite dish, it was missing a little something. BUT!!! When I added the side sauce with the crawfish in it, it became my favorite! Something about that combo just works! I believe it's the sauce they use in one of their pastas, but don't quote me on that! The sauce I used as a dip for everything, fries, mac and catfish. It is worth getting! All in all, loved everything about this place. It reminds me a little of some of the places I used to go to growing up in Memphis. Family vibe, packing lots of flavors, good music going, and just good everything. Will be back to try more of the menu!

The clams are always so fat - Grilled oysters : get the house special and grilled scallion ones. Best oysters in Houston. - Mien xao cua (Stir fried clear vermicelli with crab): very decent - Crawfish : very very good when it with in season - Grilled scallop with quail eggs - Fried rice - Fried frog legs in butter: very good. Will order it when I am no longer on a diet :( Overall, it is worth every calories and penny. So much better than Yummy Crawfish....

I called the order in and she told me about the special on crawfish once I hit 5lbs. Buy 5 Get 1 Free. I love love love crawfish and this was my first time having them since I moved to Texas in August. The flavors were very unique so the foodie in me couldn't decide. There are so many places to try so I just decided to wing it. 2lbs - House Special 2lbs - Kitchen Special 2lbs - Thai Basil (I was scaredddddd and excited) I added an order of potatoes and eggs. All Hot. Got home and got them gloves on that s$%t was so HOT (temperature and spice) I had time to find a movie and pray for my tummy bcus I was finna grub even if it burned a hole in my mouth lol. It was DELICIOUS!!!!!!!! They all have their own unique flavor. The House was reallyyyyyyy good. They were kinda sweet and spicy to me. The Kitchen had the kitchen sink in them. It was all kinds of veggies cooked into the crawfish. The flavor was all throughout so the heads were delicious. The THAI BASIL was the ONE it had a unique taste that you don't expect when eating crawfish but it tf WORKS. Let's get into these eggs. They were just past ramen eggs. Dipped in the sauce at the bottom of them bags (eye roll in foodgasm heaven). Can't wait to order again.
