Nestled just off the beaten path near a slightly industrial area of Waco, I discovered an…read moreunexpected gem, Cajun Craft. I was staying near Waco for a few days, but the area I was in had very limited choices for food. So, I looked up some nearby restaurants in Waco, and found Cajun Craft. It was worth the drive in from where I was staying. From the outside, it doesn't look like much: small parking lot, rusted roof, etc. However, I have found that often conceals some of the best places. An immediate friendly greeting was offered at the door and I was surprised by the quaint setting. There were only a few tables near the bar, but there was a covered patio attached and even more seating outside. The menu offered most of the traditional Cajun dishes at a modest price, but I already knew what I wanted. I ordered the Atchafalaya Catfish, a catfish filet over a bed of rice smothered in crawfish Étouffée. It was amazing. The Étouffée was rich and hearty, with the perfect spice level, maybe the best I have had west of Baton Rouge. The catfish was crisp and golden, giving a great balance to the creamy Étouffée. If you are ever in the Waco area and have a craving for some authentic Cajun cuisine, you must give Cajun Crafts a visit.

It comes with catfish but they let you choose your fish if you want something different! It comes with 2 sides so I got fries and fried okra. The fried okra was the star of that show for me! Also, I switched out the catfish for Blue Whiting. Everything was well seasoned and delish. My husband ordered the Blue Whiting platter which was 2 whiting filets and a side. He considered getting the etouffee so while we ate she brought out a small taste of it for us to sample for next time. (And there will be a next time!) The girl at the counter (owner??) is SO STINKIN NICE! My gosh, talk about great with customers! (Cutie with fun glasses.) It's about an hours drive from where we live but we're through Waco pretty regularly so we're looking forward to our next stop at Friday's. We'll try to get by on a Friday so we can try some of their GUMBO!

I yelped this restaurant and did not know what to expect but the reviews were good. The young lady that greet me was polite and professional. She started with an introduction sample of etouffee, and just the smell as it passed into my hands made me smile. I decided to place an order and try the boudin balls, the crab cakes, this amazing banana foster cake, a big red, and a combination plate that had 3 fried shrimp, 3 fried oysters, hush puppies, grilled toast, and two large catfish fillets. Run, run do not casually walk to give this restaurant your money and your service. The hospitality was top tier, it's a very low key place, casual clothing but a first class experience. The young lady that took my order said her mother is the one in the kitchen hen behind the scenes waving her magic I would definitely recommend and will be back and bring a few family members when I return!!

Wording makes a huge difference to a first-timer! For it to be made-to-order, our food came out really fast-kudos! I was pleasantly surprised to be served a whole (beheaded) catfish...which I haven't had in years & thus, didn't have to question its authenticity...though it was over fried-smh. My Fiancée had fillets & shrimp-the fillets unfortunately taste & had the consistency of Swai (bummer) The shrimp was a weird yellow-ish batter color-she sd it taste like a mustard base. The red beans & rice was just OK..lacking flavor. The coleslaw was avg. All in all, it was alright, but I sincerely appreciate the whole catfish option.

I always turn to Yelp to find something good and local we thought that we'd give Uncle Worms a try and he hit it line, hook, and sinker. First off, our waitress was exceptional.

Been eyeing Walk-On's for awhile. They are super close to my job. So a coworker and I decided to…read moretry it today. We roll in at 11:30 am, we are seated, and Bailey is our server. Excellent service!! We started with two domestic beers (Miller/Bud light) my coworker mentioned his beer tasted off. So Bailey took the time and effort to run the line to see if it helped, with it being the first pour that morning. Above and beyond work ethic it fixed it his second beer was perfect. Quick service on refills, and attentiveness. Food: So many great looking options this is a Cajun inspired bistro, for me Cajun can be hit or miss especially in Texas. So I had my reservations. I ordered a app of Boudin Balls..... those things were great, coworker agreed. I then ordered the Hangover burger.....again messy, but savory and so well cooked, edges crispy, vegetables tasted fresh. Waffle fries were good crunchy, but soft in the center. My coworker got a order of Boom Boom shrimp to go, but we had to try a piece, a solid option, sweet, crunchy with a ever so slight spice. His entree was the Cajundilla, I expected it to be meh, chicken quesadilla right?!? But, it was cooked so well, and the seasoning was what carried it. Do not hesitate to go here, I can't wait to go back, and try more of the menu, they have so many great looking options from the Po Boys to the gator tacos it all looks good! Again with excellent service to boot!!

Our server rushed us to order, even after telling her it was our first time there. My husband wanted to order another drink after his first one was incorrect, but when we asked, we were suddenly told the cut off time had passed. That's something that shouldn't have been mentioned upfront. The server lacked customer Service skills, had little knowledge about the menu, and the wait for our food was way too long. Overall, a really disappointing experience. Another thing that pissed us off is that they started turning off the TVs in our section while we were still watching the fight that wasn't over yet AND the restaurant wasn't closing for another couple of hours. We definitely will not be returning to this location.
