The Tipsy Crawfish - Seafood Platter - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

How is it that I haven't visited this place sooner??? I mean I've been driving all over DFW for my Cajun/Creole cravings, and had this place in vicinity all these years!?! Well, I've found it now, and will be returning with frequency. You know you've found a good spot when you see regulars there, and the bartenders know what they're drinking already. So far, we've tried the Seafood Boil, Close to the Bayou, Shrimp Po' Boy, fresh Oysters on the Half Shell, Fried Okra AND BEIGNETS w/ Chocolate drizzle... all DELISH!!! They have a great beverage selection with plenty of beers on tap, mixed cocktails and top shelf drinks galore. The host (Aliana(spell?) and bartender (Amelia) were AWESOME, and really made the dining experience so much fun! The vibe and ambiance is very homey & you just feel like you belong. Can't wait to revisit and try some of their other many selections... especially all the appetizers & the LIVE music & karaoke on the weekends!! read more

We were near this area so thought of trying it out for lunch since we wanted to have some seafood. Nice decor would love to come here on a Friday & enjoy some beer while watching some game on TV. We were quickly seated saw the menu & ordered couple of beers Sam Adam's & Dos Equis. From the fish section we choose- The Oscar - scarlet snapper grilled Your Choice of Fish, Either Grilled / Blackened / Fried (Corn Meal or Tempura), Herb Crusted with Lump Crab Meat, Lemon Butter Sauce served with White Rice & Broccoli. Red drum fish grilled with Cajun cream sauce & Creole potato salad. Both the dishes were excellent , the Cajun cream sauce & the Creole potato salad was delicious it complemented the fish very well . We also took sea boil with shrimp, potatoes & sausage with All In sauce (on the side) to have it later for dinner . Please be aware it is spicy. Service was good & enjoyed our meal would love to come back to try their various dishes. There is plenty of parking. read more

We had an amazing lunch here! The photos tell the complete story, so here is what we experienced in summary : The beer were cold and satisfying. The fish dishes had very fresh seafood and the portions weee huge! The seafood boil again had huge portions and great quantity and quality of shrimp . The All-in Sauce was a real killer. It is very very very hot. Beware! Taylor was very attentive and gave us great suggestions! Great ambience fit for Friday with friends We will be back soon! read more

Ok so this is mixed review honestly because some things were fantastic and some things horrible. Went for lunch on a Sunday about noon.... Ahh we where only people there other than one guy at the bar. Service was just ok. The good: Fried mushrooms and hush puppies are some of the best we have ever had! The average: Catfish Poorboy and fries were average. Catfish fillet was big but under seasoned and fries just blah. The horrible: The Tipsy salad sampler of egg salad, chicken salad and pimento cheese. While it looked great and huge portions all three are so bad, almost un edible especially the pimento cheese! The hush puppies are probably the best we have ever had and we had lots of them from all over Louisiana! Might give it one more shot. read more

Tried this place and can't wait to come back! I got the shrimp po boy and it was loaded with shrimp... and the bread, yummy! My husband got the chicken and sausage gumbo, he loved it but I thought it was slightly salty. The star of the meal were the charbroiled oysters! Holy, I wanted to lick the shells they were so good! read more

Took a hour to get our food. Then the food was not worth it. Catfish ended up getting soggy. My meal was completely wrong with no attempts to fix. read more

Food is delicious! The bartender/server Tatum was adorable. Only issue is they do not have fresh iced tea - it's out of a gun. I will be back! read more

The Tipsy Crawfish - Tatum - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

Service was outstanding! From the hostess to the waitress - attentive and friendly despite being fairly busy. We ordered the Crawfish Dip to start and were pleasantly surprised by the amount of crawfish - recommend crostini over chips. For our meals, I opted for a light option of blackened snapper with broccoli. Very impressed with the fish and while I know it's not easy to screw up broccoli, I thought it was really good! My husband had the crawfish Po Boy and was a big fan. I've also never seen my husband not finish a meal and this was it! Huge Po Boy with a hearty helping of fries. The fries were quite tasty as well. We will be back! read more

Service was so slow that we considered having Domino's delivered to our table at The Tipsy Crawfish. We were seated promptly and the waitress brought water and tea in a reasonable time. She didn't come back to take our orders for 20 minutes. The food did not come for four of the five of us for another 30 minutes. #5 had to wait another 5 minutes for his dinner. The food was mixed. The namesake crawfish was not fresh and not "cleaned." The fried pickles were perfect. The Jambalaya was good. The other entrees were fine. Many menu items were GF, and the waitress was careful to state that I wanted GF. Not eager to go back there. read more

Went there for the first time today - everything we had was delicious! I am gluten free, and this is a place I can enjoy GF fried mozzarella sticks and they were yummy! My husband said they were great, too, and didn't have any hint of being GF. We look forward to going back! read more

We walked in around 9 o'clock this evening, and Monica took amazing care of my girl friend and I. The food was well seasoned to perfection, amazing customer service, terrific portions, and a fun atmosphere. As a Louisiana native, I HIGHLY recommend you come here! Thanks Monica for everything, keep slaying baddie. read more

The Tipsy Crawfish - Shrimp and crawfish with Cajun butter - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

This restaurant was severely disappointing. We waited about 12 min for a coke and received a taste of the Cajun butter sauce about 10 minutes before the coke. We ordered after being seated for 20 minutes. Thankfully the hostess brought us water immediately after sitting down. The staff were really nice. So they deserve their kudos there. After that though the food was average. We spent over 90 minutes there after receiving our food at about the 70 minute mark. I won't come here again. That's unfortunate because we would really like a Cajun place to call home. read more

I am always impressed with this restaurant. I have celiac and upon introducing herself, our waitress Monica, asked if anyone at the table has any allergies that she should be aware of. That immediately eliminates the stress/anxiety that celiacs face when going out to eat. The food is always great and the portions are big! I recommend this place! 10/10 Monica is the best read more

Tipsy was just ok for me. We were the only ones in here at noon and ordered the fried catfish plate which came with the usual fanfare of fries and cole slaw. It was ok ish. The slaw had way to too much mayo and vinegar but the fish was decent. The reason the 4 stars was the great service and the cool atmosphere. But for fried catfish, Razoos is better, in my opinion. read more

Our server Monica was amazing! The food is great! Even better most of the menu can be made gluten free and is celiac approved! read more

Ok... this might be a first, but I have to give my honest opinion . I love a good cajun restaurant, so we stopped by, but I definitely would NOT recommend this one... unless you enjoy unseasoned food. Our server was amazing, and our food came out fresh, but it all lacked flavor. We spent so much money for subpar food, and we honestly didn't feel very comfortable in this establishment either. I loved the idea of a wine flight, but every glass tasted like refrigerator... you know how wine tastes when it's been open for a while and isn't fresh anymore? The gumbo was dirty tasting and watery. I took one bite and pushed it to the side. I'm used to a thick, velvety, and flavorful roux... but this wasn't it. I love that I had the option to add mushrooms to my seafood boil, but again, it lacked flavor. It was spicy... as if they added some type of Tabasco sauce to it, but that's it! The bottom of the crab boil bowl had no butter, seasoning, garlic, or ANYTHING to sop my goodies in. It was just dry. I was really confused. Maybe we visited on a bad day ‍. read more

Absolutely fantastic food! Parmida was our server and is phenomenal!! She is over the moon professional and attentive. Which is so refreshing as most restaurants seem to have lost that old school service. We can't wait to go back again. read more

Great food and great service! Monica did an amazing job with my large family! If you love sports and Louisiana food, this is your place!

Food was a 5 out of 10. We had shrimp boil with snow crab and one lobster tail Cajun seasoned. Not the best. We had the fresh oysters and they just had a really weird taste. Service was ok. read more

I've eaten here quite a few times with my husband and it has slowly gone down hill. There was 1 lady running the bar, seating people and taking orders!!! I get that restaurants can be short staffed, but the 1 person running the restaurant was extremely rude to people coming in, seating them and taking their orders like she was very put out. Just being friendly goes a long way with people having to wait for service. We thought that they must be going out of business. When it re-opens as something new, we will check it out then. read more

Monica was our server. She is 1st rate. She was attentive and friendly. She knew the menu well and made great recommendations The shrimp po boy was outstanding! I also enjoyed the shrimp gumbo. We came on a Monday, so we had pads of room. The casual atmosphere made conversely. We will be back! read more

I have to admit I went here with some trepidation because of several bad reviews. It was my granddaughter's 14th birthday and she chose the place because she wanted to try the crab boil. I generally eat carnivore so it's always a challenge to find enough to eat without paying a fortune. I chose to cheat a bit that day and had the grilled fish with chips and coleslaw. Many of the reviews said there was no flavor or seasonings, but my fish and fries were seasoned well, I did add some salt because I do prefer a lot of salt to keep my electrolyte up but otherwise the food was great. Keep in mind some people are under the false impression that salt is bad for them because doctors, who have never had a nutrition class want to sell you BP meds. That's why there is salt on the tables for you to add more if you want. My daughter and three granddaughter's enjoyed the crab boil and we all had a great time. Our waitress was very helpful with the menu and filled our waters and tea promptly. So I'm going to say it was better than what most people complained about. By the way, for those who leave bad reviews we can see your profile and if you have 9 bad reviews out of 10, I'm pretty sure it's not the places you eat but just the fact that you are entitled and picky. read more

Gumbo, Red Beans & Rice, fried shrimp all came out great. And Great service from Isella!

We were really disappointed with our experience at Tipsy Crawfish last week. We went before 5:00 p.m., and when we arrived there were only about two families in the restaurant, so it didn't seem especially busy. We ordered snow crab, crawfish, shrimp, potatoes, sausage, corn, hush puppies, and two kids meals. After placing our order, we waited around 40 minutes just for the first kids meal to come out. Then our seafood boil arrived, but it was missing the crawfish and hush puppies. The second kids meal didn't come out until 10-15 minutes after the rest of our food, and it was so hot we had to wait even longer before we could give it to our child. When we asked about the crawfish, we were told they were "almost ready," but by that point we were basically finished eating everything else, so we asked for them to be removed from the bill. Later, we noticed the hush puppies were still on the ticket, so we asked for those to be removed too since we never received them. The response we got was, "They're sitting back there right now," which was frustrating because by then it was far too late. On top of the poor timing and service, the food itself was not great. The corn tasted like it had come straight from the freezer and had freezer burn, the shrimp was tough and rubbery, the crab was just okay, and the potatoes still had roots growing out of them that hadn't even been cleaned off. It's unfortunate because this restaurant is so close to home, and we really wanted to like it, especially for the amount of money we spent. Sadly, the experience was not worth it. read more

To start off, we had a great lunch experience here and will be back for more and think this place deserves better reviews!! Food was amazing, the portions were great and prices were cheap and our waiter was nice and very attentive. We got the oysters which were HUGE and fried mushrooms which were seasoned great for appetizers and then we ordered the catfish atchafalaya and the seafood gumbo. The catfish atchafalaya was well seasoned and tasted very fresh, the breadsticks were amazing and I'm pretty sure home made and the gumbo was a tad salty but still tasted great with the bread and rice mixed. We even got a desert of mini beignets since lunch was pretty cheap! The inside was clean and there are TV's everywhere for you to enjoy any football or sports game. Come check it out for yourself, they have a ton of specials and food!!! read more

The restaurant double charged me. I submitted my credit card. Then when the bill and card were returned, I saw there was a cash discount, so I chose the cash option, placing it in the folder and putting my credit card away. I did not sign anything. They took the cash and then charged my card with a generous tip. The manager has refused to return my calls. I even visited the restaurant later and was promised a call from the manager--but it never came. Service was poor, the food very slow to arrive and only average. Worst restaurant experience in 50 years. I would give zero stars if I could. read more

The Tipsy Crawfish - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McKinney, Texas

Been here many many times. We've ALWAYS enjoyed it. Great food, great staff, great atmosphere. Today, with half of the tables and bar still available, the waiter asks, "table for 2, do you have a reservation?" We've replied "no, do we need one?" He pouts and says let me see if I can find yall a table." We said we will sit at the bar. Little did we know it was watch party night for some reality show. Still wasn't bothered about anything... Then...loud as could be, the audio in the place was so overwhelming I put my headphones in and still couldn't hear them. A watch party???? To take over the entire place???? Cheering and all sorts of nonsense. Grumpy old fart?? Maybe, but We've thought it was gonna be similar to our previous visits. Not into this watch party thing to take over the whole establishment. Annoyed and won't be back during these times ever again. I get it, I hope they make the money they want, with all this TV bs,but we aren't coming back till the season is over. read more

I placed a togo order over the phone with Monica, and she was incredibly helpful with picking out a menu item catered to my preferred tastes, the variety of gluten free options, and was very kind through the process.

Delicious Seafood!!!!!Great Menu!!!!! Great Service!!!!!!! Mónica is fantastic!!!!!!! Very nice Family Atmosphere.....

TERRIBLE MANAGEMENT!!!! DONT GO IF YOURE GLUTEN FREE. They accidentally gave me gluten which will cause me problems for the next couple days and when the waitress asked the manager to give me a discount the manager said NO because I SHOULDVE BEEN MORE CAUTIOUS and double checked that the food they gave me was gluten free?? The waitress knew when I ordered that I was gluten free and If the waitress tells me the food is gluten free and it says gluten free on the menu why would I ask again when the food comes out??? Can't believe I was blamed for THEIR MISTAKE!!! Disgusted by this establishment. read more

Good service and good food every time we come in! Monica was on point with the service all night even when it was super busy.

I've been super excited to try this but unfortunately it was not a very good experience. The only person working the front wasn't very friendly and off-putting. She's probably tired because she's the only one working which I understand but it really made it awkward. When we received our food, it was lacking in flavor. We ordered a variety of things from the menu, so we could try everything but the only thing that wasn't flavorless / coated in salt to make up for the lack of flavor was the BLT. I don't know but it takes a lot for me to not finish a plate but unfortunately we will not be returning. read more
