    I had an early dinner here tonight and they did not disappoint. I am a "Dumpling Nut" so I had to try their dumpling appetizer. I tried them fried, but that turned out to be deep fried with a crispy exterior. They were good, as was the dipping sauce, but I think I would have preferred the steamed option as the filling was very good. I also tried a link of boudin, which was very good! For dinner I tried their fried oysters... Finally, someone around here that knows how to fry oysters! They were very good with a simple corn meal breading fried perfectly. I was on the way to a meeting so I did not partake, but they had a nice selection of beers for those that did. In short, this place doesn't look like much, but they seemed to be good friendly folks serving good food!

    Food is Excellent and the service is very good. Very dirty front of house, light fixtures and pretty much everything on the walls. And you hafta walk through smoky bar/gameroom to get to seating area.

    The crawfish was so good that my Soon to be ex wife decided to stay and work it out. Life changing. My dog even listens more!! Highly recommend!

    We were optimistic after reading the reviews, but very disappointed. It smelled like smoke when we walked in and we noticed multiple bug sprays out on the counter (see picture). The food was okay, but way over priced and nothing special! We weren't able to finish our dinner because of all the gnats around our table.

    5/23/14 My first visit I gave them 4 or 5 stars. This visit was a two or three. Let me start with the good! Great employees! Great with kids. Wait, AMAZING with kids. There's even a little corner for them to play in! Easel, crayons, chalk! Nice! Definitely don't have to worry about getting them to sit and be still at the table! Now for the not so good/not so bad. The service was just as S L O W as the first time and there were way less people here. We called ahead bc we were a party of 8, well 7 and a toddler and it was a busy weekend. We get there and they have a table ready even though they said we didn't need a reservation. Fantastic! Only 4 people at one other table! Awesome! We should get great service! Our drinks came out in a decent amount of time. Off to a great start. Waiting, waiting waiting. Ok here are our appys but only half came out at a time. Boudin and seafood balls were very good but the cheese sticks were just eeh. Two of us got the salad bar. Nice salad greens! Some tomato slices. No other veggies. About two or three dressings ranch, Italian and ? Waiting waiting waiting! Wait some more! Oh here's our crawfish. Guess they are bringing the other stuff next. Waiting, waiting, waiting. About 4-5 minutes more we get the burger and the toddler's grilled cheese! Whew she was getting restless. She isn't hungry bc the cook? kept bringing her crackers! Another really great lady! They have awesome people here so we don't complain! Waiting..... A few minutes later we get the Chicken tenders and the CFS. Tenders look normal but the CFS didn't look like steak and was very small. The burger looked amazing and he said it was but the fries are the cheap, from a bag crinkle cut kind like they serve at hospitals and schools. :( I really think there is just one cook who cooks what they can in one batch. Example... I'm cooking crawfish. Done. Serve. Now I'm frying the burger and grilled cheese. Done! Serve. Now the CFS and chicken strips. Done. Serve. Really disappointing. Now we all have our food! Begin meal. Our crawfish are no longer hot but we left them covered so they are kind of room temp. We are starving so we eat anyway. They were tasty and juicy but one of us had at least 20 crawfish that were nasty dead, black and broken in his 4 lb order. There were none in mine and only a few in my daughters. We eat crawfish every year, year after year and that seldom ever happens. The size difference was so big that some were very over cooked or maybe they kept cooking bc they sat covered for so long while we waited for the rest. Juicy, tasty but they NEED SPICE! At least offer some spice to shake on yourself. A can of Tony's or something. There was a bottle of hot sauce and a bottle of sriracha (used that) on the table but it just seemed like they were not cooked with any spice at all. Some dry spices sprinkled on the crawfish to make my mouth and tongue tingle a little would be great! The people at the table next to us had the Asian potstickers/dumplings whatever. They looked and smelled amazing and they were oohing and ahhing between gulps. If I come back I may try those or the étouffée! This place screams "I can be better!" There is so much promise here. Maybe hire another person? Two really great employees here already. It's just painful to see how close to awesome this place is but misses the mark by a few bad dishes and really slow service! Those things can be fixed and you have an amazing place! I really hope the owner sees this! Bottom line, if you're in the area and open to something different try the items the place is named for, ASIAN or CAJUN! Do not wait to eat until everyone is served and byob of Cajun seasoning! 3/30/14. Great place! The kind you would find on Diners, Drive In and Dives! Ignore the dive bar appearance! The food is awesome. Crawfish could have been spicier but the juiciest I have EVER eaten and I have had some cooked by the best Cajun cooks! Dh had the fried catfish mmm. Crunchy coating and flaky moist and thick inside. Not greasy at all. They could have better fries. Pre packaged frozen, eh. Great beer prices! Prices were very in line with the area if not a bit more reasonable. Definitely a bargain compared to larger areas. Definitely try this place! The owner is visible and seems to talk to every patron. Service was a little harried but they were short staffed. Food didn't come out together. Actually about 5 minutes apart. So don't wait for your friends and family to be served. This happened at all the tables around us. They MUST be popular bc it was early Saturday eve and they were out of several items and ran out of even more. Out of frogs legs but will definitely return for those. Can't wait to try them!

    Great Cajun/seafood/Asian fusion. Had the crawfish tails Asian fried and fried shrimp. Best place we've been in the area. Don't be turned off by the dive bar atmosphere. Also, cheap beer and sometimes live music.

    Amazing crawfish!

    Whew! I'm a Mississippi native so Louisiana is like our great aunt and New Orleans is our first…read morecousin. I knew when we pulled up the food was going to be good. When I tell you the spirit of Louisiana and NOLA was in the place! So you will miss the place if you aren't paying attention. The sign is small and the building looks like it used to be a church fellowship hall. It's not fancy and it's small, however, don't discount it. Don't judge a book by its cover and great things come in small packages. It's a family owned and run business. By the looks of it, it can probably seat 40 people and I'm pushing it with the number. However from the time you walk in until the time you leave, you feel like you're at your great aunt's house. It was five of us and when you walk in, it's seat yourself and first come, first serve. The food came out piping hot and cooked fresh. My husband and brother-in-law got the catfish platter with red beans and rice (no pork) and Mac-n-cheese. My sister and I got the Nawlins boil that had a crab cluster, shrimp, corn, potato, boiled egg and a sausage link. My nephew got a shrimp po-boy with fries. The food was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The fish and fries were crispy. The Mac-n-cheese isn't creamy but it isn't dry. Perfect amount of cheese and flavor. The red beans and rice had the perfect balance of flavor. The boil...my goodness the boil. They have the amount of the boil down to a science to make it a full meal. At first glance, I didn't think it would be seasoned well because the season looked like a dry rub. It wasn't saucy or juicy - until I took my first bite. I almost walked to the kitchen to kiss the cook. They are not skimpy on any of the food either. Even the po-boy had an overload of shrimp. When we were there, it was a packed house. There was also a large party who was rather disgruntled - not because of the service or food but because they were impatient. Remember this is a family owned business with 2 servers and maybe 3 cooks that cook to order. So if you're looking for quick food, this isn't the place. If you have time to sit, enjoy some great food with great company in a casual home style restaurant...this is your place.

    Well I understand Remnant of Nawlins has been around for a while, but I just found them hidden away…read moreon Groesbeck St in Bryan. I do love my Cajun cookin', so I decided to give them a go. The restaurant looks almost like a converted house from the outside, but nicely kept with parking around the side. The interior is simple but upbeat in its New Orleans decor. The owner cheerfully met us at the door and invited us to sit wherever we wanted. She was hajppy, helpful and patient throughout the visit. We ordered all of our favorites to try; gumbo, etouffee, catfish, shrimp, dirty rice. While I have had better crawfish etoufee, the shrimp and catfish were king! The fish was mild, cut in a thick filet and perfectly seasoned and cooked. The shrimp was also perfect and very pleasing. It was all served with a grilled piece of bread that went well with the meal. It's good to have these folks in Bryan. I would definitely dine at Remnant of Nawlins again.
