What a special find this was!!!!!! Aaron at the Hampton Inn in Nacogdoches gave us a pretty…read moreimpressive review of Clear Springs and went on and on about the onion rings. Onion rings are one of the hub's favorites so off we went. The restaurant is located inside an old railroad warehouse and it has a very rustic atmosphere. You can feel the history ooze from the building's pores as you slide into your seat and get ready to take in the nice sized menu selections. I had a few items picked out from different sections and Zyra our waitress helped me make the best choice. We started out with the onion rings with ranch dressing and we DEVOURED THEM! We both chose the blackened catfish and were both very pleased. The fillets were perfectly cooked with nice seasoning and topped with pico de gallo. The pico added some much welcome acidity and zestiness to the dish. I ordered the pinto beans and crispy new potatoes and they were all superb. We enjoy stopping in Nacogdoches and soaking up the history and great food that the oldest town in Texas has to offer! We will definitely return to Clear Springs. There are way too many items on that menu that I need to enjoy!

Clear Springs - Truly awful service and a completely avoidable mess…read more My family went to Clear Springs and the experience was honestly terrible. My sister's food didn't come out at all , not late, not forgotten in the kitchen, just never showed up because our waitress never bothered to check on us even once after taking the order. A couple of the dishes that did arrive were wrong, and we were stuck sitting there with empty drinks for ages because she disappeared and didn't come back to the table. We literally had to wave her down from across the room just to get her attention. Only then did she realize my sister's food was missing, and instead of apologizing or taking responsibility, she immediately blamed someone in the back. As if she hadn't ignored us the entire time and wouldn't have known anything was wrong because she never checked on us. Between the missing meal, the wrong dishes, the empty drinks, and the excuses, the whole experience was a mess. We won't be returning.

Food initially was great when they first opened, however the last couple of visits it's been pretty underwhelming. Crackling soft and soggy. Boudin link dried out probably from sitting under heat lamp. I ordered boiled crawfish yesterday and they were so mushy they fell apart before I could peel them. I ended up throwing them all away. I called the store and got voicemail. I left a message for the manager requesting a refund but have not gotten a response. I hate giving bad reviews however some things should not be served to the public if it's not presentable, fresh or edible.

If I could give negative stars I would!! This place is overpriced and horrible. The crawfish…read morepies are unseasoned and my husband's was cold in the middle. My cracklings were cold and hard. Never again!'n

I ordered the boiled crawfish ( this is cajun style) and it was good, just wish it had retained more juice, and also ordered the catfish dinner. It comes with fries ,coleslaw and multiple catfish fillets. And considering they were only 30 mins out or so from closing, it was piping hot and very tasty. The only reason I didn't t give 5 stars was because I asked for the catfish to be fried crispy, and it was NOT.. But otherwise I'm glad I stopped in!

Really good seafood & excellent service. If you're on the road and need good food. Stop by for sure.read more

However I ordered a to-go order of 2 piece fish/ 2 shrimp from here, and my fish was rubbery , my hush puppies were over cooked, and my shrimp seemed to be fried in flour and had a very off putting color and texture, I believe because they fried the shrimp in a flour batter and not cornmeal???( WHY)?? Also the coleslaw was watery.. In the same order was an order of lemon pepper chicken that looked dreadful and over fried in a very dark color....( weird) not looking at all like lemon pepper wings I've ever had before. And a burnt piece of bread/ biscuit or whatever it was.. Sadly I will not be back...

I tried to enjoy this but the lemon pepper wings tasted like leftover wings dipped in batter and…read morefried with very little lemon pepper flavor. The coleslaw was decent. The fried fish was ok. The batter on the fried shrimp just tasted like flour and bland. Seemed a bit uninspired. Might be a while before we return. The employees seemed friendly enough.

I almost given up on these places, but Seriously and Honestly, We tried Clawdaddys last week and went back again Monday. I can't believe I found a place that serves great boiled crawfish where MOST ALL of the are eatable. No restaurant can be at my boiled Crawfish as I started this in 1992. Have a Blessed Day. Be thankful there are only a few who truly care. PS, look at your Receipt!!! It's going to show, "America's Best Fireworks", as Merchandise????? I didn't eat or buy merchandise ........lol.

Merci catered our wedding in March and it was amazing. She served a menu of appetizers and…read moreh'orderves. I received multiple complements from our guests. Everyone seemed wowed by both the taste and the presentation. We decorated our reception hall with swans and to coordinate Merci had several fruits carved into various sized swans. The carved swans really added an extra touch to the food presentation that I wasn't expecting. In planning the menu, she gave us very helpful suggestions while also being encouraging of what we wanted. She arrived on time to the venue and the setup and take down went smoothly according to our wedding coordinator. She even had a to-go plate ready for us to take with us when we left the reception since the bride and groom seem to rarely have time to eat. The only thing I might have changed was that we didn't discuss when the reception would be ending with them and they started taking up some of the food a little earlier than we expected. Everything was as good or better than I expected. She also has a food truck that is sometimes at the farmers market. If you can catch them there I recommend their breakfast tacos.
