This is definitely a spot I go to when I am craving a quick fox for gumbo instead of making my own. The owners and serves are quick and always so helpful and kind. It's not too crazy on the inside but just enough space to get a quick bite to eat. I love their catfish and fries plus the gumbo. Nothing screams Cajun and the south like this gem! read more

First of all the customer service is excellent! They have always been friendly, welcoming . I have tried several things from here and can't complain about any of them. My food has always tasted great! Their his puppies are delicious! Cat fish is cooked perfect! Their deep fried chicken is one of my favorites! Absolutely love their sweet tea ! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant its self is small. But very clean![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wished they had a bigger place or even a small place in my town.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have some great southern dishes!! One of my favorite places to eat! read more

FALSE ADVERTISEMENT Purchase "Catfish" today so I thought but I'm from Arkansas/Tennessee so I know what American catfish looks like and tastes like. turns out they don't sell catfish they sell Vietnamese catfish called Swai!!!!! Google that fish i encourage everyone to do so. Nasty fish they are considered unclean fish especially how they are farmed. But don't worry this restaurant charges you hard working Americans top dollar for trash fish! I plan on looking into the laws on this I don't see how this is legal. read more

We came in right when they opened for dinner. And let me tell you, it fills up QUICK! Within minutes of sitting down, the small eatery was filling up at the tables and folks ready to order to go. A table of 5, we ordered the catfish baskets. The fish was so, so fresh! The small order comes with two large helpings of catfish and it is right on point. read more

I read through the reviews before coming, saw both good & bad, but thought we would give it a try. All and all, it was alright. Our six-year-old ended up ordering one waffle with blueberries and the chef was so kind he cooked the blueberries in the middle. This was a positive. I ordered a small cod and french fries platter with the hush puppies. The hush puppies were amazing, the fries were okay (wish they were more crispy) and the cod was eh-- I only ate a few bites. My partner got the cod platter as well but got the fried okra and a large gumbo. He said the gumbo was 100, but just like myself the cod was eh. All and all we might go back, but wouldn't order the fish again. 3 out 5. Picture of the blueberry waffle below because that was very kind. read more

Food is always awesome! Service is great. Sometimes it takes a little time to get your food, but always worth the wait.

Came here to grab lunch before a football tournament. We had a party of 10 and had to split the kids and adults at two table which was fine. The ladies working inside were great and personable. We placed the following order.... 2 orders of halibut and chips...2 orders of shrimp and chips.. jambalaya with no shirt because they were out.. an order of chicken wings, chicken sandwich, sweet potato fries, chicken strips. I wanted chicken and waffles but they were out of chicken and also chicken and shrimp and grits. They were out of small shrimp. Overall the food was good. It was hot and came out in a timely manner. We will have to come Back to get the chicken and shrimp and grits read more

Small portions, nasty food. Horrible service, they can't get a simple order right. I'll never eat there again!!! read more

If you are looking for Southern cuisine, this place is a hidden gem! The fish wad seasoned perfectly and the coleslaw was delicious. So many things on the menu to sample: fried chicken, hush puppies, gizzards, frog legs, catfish & cod. Pulled pork was the special of the day and I was envious when I saw one going to another table. Next time... The waitress was wonderful. Friendly, attentive and professional. Small seating area is a bit of a downside but they seem to excel at takeout. Not fancy but definitely Good Eats ! read more

I cannot speak highly enough about this joint. We did a search for fried clams after a disappointment elsewhere in Olympia and came across this icon of fine Southern/N'awlins flavor and hospitality. Whoah! There was so much more on the menu than those clams. We had to try everything. That means: Sweet tea, clam chowder, fried okrah, fried pickles, hush puppies, fried corn, clam strips, fried chicken, red beans and rice, jambalaya, mac and cheese, cole slaw, sweet potato pie, pecan pie. They were sold out of the gumbo. There were more things we wanted to try, but that was far more than enough food for two of us and plenty of leftovers for four more meals at home. For about $100 including a grateful tip. This place is very reasonably priced. Way more food than the two of us wanted, but we wanted to try everything. Here's what we liked: Every. Single. Thing. Every. Single. Thing. Every single thing was ridiculously good. The sweet tea, wasn't too sweet and tasted like tea- I could actually differentiate the well balanced flavors. The clam chowder.... I'm from New England, I'm proudly snobby and opinionated- this was awesome. Not all fancy with dill or sherry, but thick and creamy as it should be with plenty of clams and enough potato, the right flavor but with a slightly unique texture, almost like it was thickened with grits instead of flour or cornstarch. Appropriately served with the correct oyster crackers. Really solid chowdah. Wicked good. Fried okrah. Not my thing...I wouldn't have ordered it but yes what a surprise! Turns out it IS my thing. Like everything that was fried the breading was delicate and scrumptious and not at all greasy- these were fantastic. I'd never tried such a thing before and was compulsively popping the tasty little happy textured morsel surprises into my mouth. Clam strips. Whoah. These were not your typical little clam necks and clam bellies, nor were they fried to a crunchy crisp, this are bigger necks- clam strips were huge, fresh, and the batter was delicate. Somehow not as flavorful as other clam strips but tasty and seemed healthier with the depth of the deep fry oil and texture. Clam strips are one of my favorite things and it's hard to find good ones in the Northwest. These are good. Not great. But good. Aside- we wondered if they used an air fryer for all their fried goods, as nothing was oily/greasy. Food seemed unusually light and healthy for fried food. Fried chicken. OMG, the moisture and flavor of the chicken inside the delicate batter was ridiculously good. Wow. Hush puppies. I had bad memories of this stuff from grade school. Little did I know they could be prepared so that the batter forms an exterior ball of delicate crunch while the interior was moist and tasty- almost like cake pops or something. Like the okrah, not something I would have ordered, but awesome surprise. Red beans and rice. I was too full I couldn't try them. I had to prioritize. Jambalaya. I was too full, I had the leftovers with leftover chowder for two full meals for myself. So I didn't have it fresh. There was plenty of sausage and shrimp and flavor on the dirty rice. Mac and cheese. Great. Nothing exceptional but not overcooked, a bit al dente, with enough flavor. Comforting food like everything else here. Cole slaw. Very good. Not too soaked in dressing. Clean healthy flavor. Pecan pie. Very good. That said, ate it the next day. I couldn't have dessert I just rolled my stuffed body out of the Anything else? Oh yeah- the corn. I don't know how they did it. The ear of corn on a stick weighed about two pounds, soaked in what? Flavored with what? I don't know. I overwhelmed myself with food. But I remember it was delicious. The service was friendly. Obviously from the various reviews- the place is very popular and gets a big lunch rush. It's a good idea to bring a patient attitude. I came in with that attitude and came out fat and grateful. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Take your gracious attitude, remember that things happen a bit slower in the South (this ain't a fast food drive through), it's worth waiting for, try everything I didn't try and let me know how it is. (And this is just a couple doors down from remarkable cupcake shop.... it's amazing that we could get a parking spot at this little strip mall). read more

Great food, friendly fast service. Nice little place. The Hush Puppies were huge and delicious. Loved the Shrimp Po Boy. read more

Been here twice now, and it's quickly become one of my favorite places. Staff are super friendly, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the interior is clean and inviting[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], and we just love the food here. So far we've tried the clam strip basket, chicken gizzards, seafood etoufee, red beans & rice, collard greens, the corn appetizer, and the catfish. I have to say, it is some of the tastiest food I've ever had. The catfish may be one of the best I've tried, as well as the greens- so flavorful. I hadn't had collard greens this good in so many years. The gizzards were good too, not the absolute best I've ever had (bc I've had a lot in my life), but definitely very tasty. Bonus was the bread pudding...soooo good... read more

Ordered the catfish basket. The fish was perfectly cooked with a crispy lightly-seasoned cornbread breading. Nice fries, crispy outside and soft inside. And probably the best hush puppies I've ever tasted. read more

Sooo good! My husband and I split the Captain's Platter while our kiddo got the 1 Piece Fish and Chips. What's struck us the most was how flavorful everything was. We've been places where, if you order a big basket of stuff, it all kind of tastes the same. Not this! The fries were basic crinkle cut ones but the seasoning was SO GOOD! The batter on the catfish was fantastic and so different from the batter on the other fish. Each item tasted totally different from the rest and all of it was so dang good! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small little place (3 booths on one side, three tables, a booth in the far corner, and seats at the bar) but it felt far from small. It was cozy and friendly, people chatted with one another.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It felt like we had been coming here for years, even though it was our very first time. Our server was lovely and kept checking on us to make sure everything was good. The kitchen staff popped in and out while they were getting our food prepared. It took maybe a little longer but it was because everything was being hand made and coming out fresh. It's about as long as I would have expected it but I know some people expect rushed service. Good food takes time and this food was so good! We stopped in on our way back from a trek out to a Christmas tree farm, we were nowhere near our house. But we will definitely be back! read more

The food is delicious mouthwatering even the prices are affordable. I recommend this place to everybody if you need a place to eat, come and enjoy the food. read more

Best homemade soul food EVER! From presentation to taste... amazing! The owners are wonderful too!

Found this amazing little restaurant on Yelp as we were driving home and needed a lunch break. We were very happy with our visit to Beau Legs. It was a small detour off the 5, and easy to jump back to the 5 as well. The place is tiny but very clean and nicely decorated. We were seated quickly and ordered a few minutes later. Our server was friendly and helpful. The food is all prepared fresh so it was a bit of a wait but so worth it! I had the catfish basket (2pc) and was able to substitute collard greens for the coleslaw. The catfish came consisted of two large filets, perfectly breaded and piping hot. This was the small portion. Delicious! It came with two of the most delicious hushpuppies we ever had. Greens were good, would have maybe have liked them a bit hotter. My husband had the shrimp po'boy, served in a soft roll with freshly fried shrimp, gently breaded with just the right amount of crunch and served with fries. We will have to come back for dessert, as the portions were generous and we were completely satisfied! read more

Early last Saturday evening, I was hungry for some Fish & Chips. So, I looked online for a new place to try. Beau Legs Fish and Chips in Lacy rated well so we decided to give them a try. BIG mistake. When we walked in we noticed right away the place doesn't have a "traditional" restaurant vibe - no Host/Hostess greeted us...no menu posted on the wall or available at the counter...no Health Department grade clearly visible...only one booth with customers during what's supposed to be one of the busiest times of the week. "Uh, oh" I thought. We waited several minutes before someone appeared from behind the curtains separating the kitchen to tell us to "go ahead and have a seat" if we were dining in. It was almost another 10 minutes before the same person came over and tossed a couple of menus on our table as if she were upset we were even there. We should have left right then and never looked back, but we were hungry and sometimes a place has great food but poor service. We started with Fried Pickles, which were lightly breaded and tasty. Nothing spectacular, but decent all the same. Then my girlfriend ordered Catfish and I ordered Cod for our main dishes. Both came with fries and hushpuppies. Throughout the ordering process and when she brought our food, our waitress (Deanna) continued to act as if she had contempt for us. Most of the time, though, her and the other waitress were in the kitchen and NO EMPLOYEE was visible in the front. When our food arrived...the fish and hushpuppies were grossly overcooked...and the fries seemed as if they'd been sitting under a heat lamp for a few hours since they were limp and void of flavor. We sparsely ate as quickly as we could and then waited and waited and waited for the check...only to have Deanna disappear behind the curtains after tossing it on the table. We waited and waited and waited for someone to come get the check and cash we set on the table...finally, though, we set it on the counter and walked out. THEN the waitress (Deanna) comes out the door after us...as if we were trying to leave without paying...rudely saying "Excuse me!!!" My girlfriend turned and told her to look on the counter and we never looked back AND will never go back either. My Rating: NO STARS (out of 5) Avoid this place at all costs. HORRIBLE service and POOR food. Don't waste your time or money. The Olympia/Lacey area has no shortage of good places to eat. It's a wonder this place stays open and even more a wonder Deanna has a job. read more

Great portion size. Reasonably fast service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small foot print but hasn't been crowded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Last night my Girlfriend and I had dinner here...FANTASTIC! The catfish was off the hook! Hush puppies great! And probably the BEST Coleslaw around..it had flavor! The service was great! Staff super friendly! I highly recommend this place! read more

Delish and great service!!! Support a local business! And definitely don't skip the hush puppies.

I give this restaurant four stars. The stars deserved are for the food. Been going here for a years, and the customer service is hit or miss. Either it's really horrible, or it's excellent. The only consistent thing is the flavor and quality of the food. Even on its days I would still come back. read more

We didn't find this place on Yelp, but was recommended by a friend. This place has a great menu with a wide Cajun menu selection. Ordered the frog legs and catfish & shrimp dishes. It was amazing, no dipping sauce was needed. I think the catfish was the best I've tasted. Friendly staff and good priced menu were also a plus. Will definitely be back. read more

Ate lunch here with a friend and my husband. We ordered okra as an appetizer and it was sheer perfection! I had a shrimp poor boy sandwich and it was stuffed with clean very well prepared shrimp on a substantial yet sold roll. The portions were spot on and prices were good for the quality and portions served. I'll be back! My complements to the chef...great job! Service was also spot on something not always found. read more

Out of Shrimp, pulled pork, hush puppies and pork chops. Waited 50 minutes for food that I was told would be ready in 30 minutes, just for them to not have started the food OR written down the order. The cooks in the back were arguing with each other and the reason they were "out of hush puppies" is because one of the cooks broke the tool to retrieve the hush puppies. The whole place was filled with patrons waiting on food, every table was full and nobody with food. Many of them waiting 30-40+ minutes to even have someone write down their order or waiting on food. Service was awful, and always is when the owners aren't around. Wait times here are also atrocious, I want to be able to support local businesses but with service and environment like that everytime I try to give them a chance not sure this is the "best" soul food place in Lacey. They are the best at keeping you waiting. read more

Wow! Just Wow! I've been fortunate to have Poor Boys in Louisiana and this was hands down the best I've ever had! The shrimp were breaded perfectly, the sauce was sweet and spicy, and bun was perfectly toasted. Will go back for the food, but probably get take out as the ambience lacked a bit.. Wasn't offered a military discount even though I was wearing my USMC hat, so I'm not sure if they do.. Service was ok.. They seemed a bit busy to really be hospitable to those of us dining in. Definitely worth a visit if you're hungry for the deep fried southern deliciousness! read more

I've passed this restaurant multiple times but finally made my way in with my father (who is from the south) and my brother. There's plenty of parking in this business center but the parking spots are slim - almost compact like. You can see the bigger cars and suvs parking on the sides. They have a great selection of food - something for everyone. I ordered a bunch of sides - fried corn (this was so amazing! Almost like an elote with less spice), hush puppies (the honey butter was to die for), and gizzards. My brother ordered the surf and turf but said they catfish wasn't that great. My father ordered the flank steak sandwich. We were all under the impression that it would be on a hoagie, but it's plain bread. My only suggestion would be to include additional information on the menu. It only tells you the name of the item. It doesn't go into detail about what comes on the sandwich, for example, tomatoes, lettuce, etc. Staff were friendly and prompt. Portion sizes are large we were able to take half our food home. Would definitely come back for more. read more

We flew in from Hawaii to visit our family in Lacey. We happened to find this establishment on Yelp and took a chance. It's a cute place with friendly staff. We ordered deep fried frog legs and fries, shrimp and grits, shrimp and chicken jambalaya, and crawfish and shrimp etouffee. Oh boy, everything was yummy!!! This was a pleasant experience! Thank you! read more

We finally were able to try this place. The first time we went they were closed and it was only after 4 pm. We were able to go on my lunch break at noon. It was very busy. A ton of people were dining in and a lot of people in and out with to-go orders. The dining space is really small. Only like 5-6 tables and a bartop. However, the bartop was crowded because people who ordered online were there waiting. It was only one host working at the time. Anywho, we dined in and it took about 30+ mins for our food to come out. The food was good, but it wasn't as good as I hoped. I had the pulled pork and I probably won't order that again. It didn't have enough flavor for me. My husband had the Fish Po Boy and that was so good. read more

Great authentic Southern good and great service! I highly recommend this place. I live in Seattle but it's worth the trip to Lacey.

It's 4:15 on a Tuesday and they're closed. Not cool. Update your hours of business, Beau. I have now been here twice and still haven't been able to order any food. The first time, there was a line of people waiting to place orders, but nobody was at the front counter taking orders. Instead, they were running around delivering food to tables, bringing out drinks, and anything else people needed. If I would have waited, it probably would have taken over an hour to receive my order. This is a dysfunctional place and I don't have any patience for poorly run businesses. read more

Great assortment of southern and Cajun food. Very friendly, small restaurant, family run business feel. Service was good.
