After spending $100 on food, I went to swipe my card and noticed a 5% dine in charge. I have no problem tipping. What I do have an issue with is paying $5 to sit at a table with no wait staff, styrofoam plates and handed an empty cup for us to fill ourselves at a machine. This fee is NOT to tip servers but literally to sit at an old booth with a plastic table cloth. Nowhere did I see a sign about this charge until after my order was made and I went to swipe my card. We are from out of town, it was already 8pm and we had just spent the day at the beach. My teenagers were with me and they were tired. Our only options were to pay it, leave or eat in our car. Since when do, what is basically a fast food place, charge a fee to sit down when there's not even a waitress? I literally made a TikTok about this that has since gone viral. Mixed reactions, but people defending this are saying it's a tip for the wait staff. No it isn't. We did not have a waiter. It's a table fee. Food is already pricey. This is obnoxious and we won't be back. Just want to warn others. read more

This used to be one of Baytown's most unique and interesting restaurants. They closed for a while and reopened, and we tried to eat there today. There is a surcharge to eat in the restaurant now, but there was no table service. Paying extra for the privilege just to sit in the restaurant didn't appeal to us, so we left. read more

Wow my friends!!!! This is my first unhappy review. I seen a tictok of this place about the seafood and the delicious meals served. When I arrived right on the door said 5%percent ser charge for dinning in. Really!!!! Then they didn't even have food on the menu. No oysters no full bar. The girl that took my order was not very welcoming and just took our orders. I chugged my beer and sad I'm taking this to go. If this place was something...that time has passsed. Don't believe every tictok .....it's hit and miss. For all the foodies... if you're in the area try the seafood across the street. I don't recommend this place at all read more

Black Bayou - Crawfish was good! Get the house sauce or k sauce - Vietnamese Near Me - Baytown, Texas

The service the food and the wait time for service was under 2-3minutes. The fried rice is very tasty and you can order it without eggs because it is made to order. I ordered to go but there were other patrons eating their and it was a very pleasant ambience while I waited for my food. It's not fancy but it is also not a dump read more

It's was pretty good. Food was as expected. Not anything unique but standards are met. Laid back as well.

Good food! Ordered vermicelli bbq pork, pork spring rolls, shrimp jalapeño bacon wrapped, crab boil Cajun garlic, and a margarita with beer. Flavor is good and portions are good too! I wish it had more garlic in the boil sauce other than that it was good. Bacon shrimp with jalapeño were so delicious!!!! It would be our favorite place if it wasn't for how much we paid! I think the boil was the most pricey Service is good too! The lady is nice, Ambiance is very chill and relaxing read more

Everything we had was tasty. We grabbed menus from the counter went & sat down until we decided. Then went to the counter to place our appetizers & drink order. The daiquiris are strong & delious. Apps: Boudin links, boudin egg rolls, egg rolls, fried shrimp & seasoned fries Main dish: Then we finally decided what we wanted to eat. Went back to the counter placed our order. We had the hot box, combo rice, medium shrimp rice, grand slam. Everything was good. Service was good. Music was on point if you like late 90s early 2000s. We will definitely go back! read more

I've only been once before they closed & I remember thinking it was pretty good. upon entering, we had to order at the counter which I personally didn't like since I need time to look at the menu. then we were assigned a table to sit at afterwards. that's new. according to the cashier/server?, there's a new partnership now. crawfish - a decent size - mix between medium & large with a few small ones. flavor was okay. we got the garlic butter one & the house special. fried rice - garbage. I didn't even know you can mess up a simple side. it was dry, bland, & barely had any eggs in it. boudin egg rolls - I liked it. remoulade sauce was good considering I live in houston & was visiting my bf in the area, it's not likely I would return if I happen to crave crawfish again. I mean for $7/lb, it's quite affordable but overall lacking imo. read more

First of all the food isn't at all fresh, taste like they fry their shrimp in the same grease for a week straight. Second how are you going to charge a $5 dine in fee? You charged me to come eat at your not even average restaurant. Dont ever try this place Unless you like paying an additional charges to eat inside. Horrible!!! read more

This little place is the old Whataburger on Garth in-between a gas station and the Deluxe Inn. It's always clean and the staff couldn't be better. They have a Full bar and a kick ass menu full of Asian Cajun Fusion grub. Seriously everything I've had so far has been delicious. Also plenty of Tvs for games and they also have a small patio out front. Stop by and give Black Bayou a try. read more

Ive driven by this place time & time again going to & from school (lee college) & today finally a friend & i decided to go for lunch. i was NOT disappointed AT ALL!!! its got a cute interior, bright in contrast to the black exterior. i ordered the boudin eggrolls & black bayou shrimp rice. the rice came in a huge portion. the rice was stir fried with crawfish tails & sausage, peppers & onions & topped with a lot of boiled shrimp smothered in a mild cajun butter sauce. i took more than half home with me after lunch. with both & a drink, lunch cost around $30 but it was worth it. im sure we'll go back soon! read more

Black Bayou - Black Bayou Shrimp fried rice (comes with crawfish tails/ sausage topped with jumbo shrimp) - Vietnamese Near Me - Baytown, Texas

Very good place. Small sitting area. No pho! The young ladies there are very nice. I have been there at least three times.

Food was so good!!! We ordered the boudin egg rolls and sausage, regular egg rolls for an appetizer. They were all delicious. The fried shrimp were large, and fresh and perfectly cooked. Fries and hush puppies were also good. The crawfish and shrimp fried rice was delish. We did the boil and the shrimp, crab, mussels and crawfish were all very good. The spicy garlic butter Cajun sauce was amazing. Beignets were not the classic beignets but everyone enjoyed them. read more

My boyfriend got me the house special crawfish to go and it was still very yummy after sitting out for a few hours Crawfish were medium to large sizes and very flavorful. It was $6 a pound which is the cheapest I've heard of in the Houston area.. I just paid $10 somewhere else last week! Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

The seafood is fantastic!! I really enjoy eat seafood that is outstanding!!! I will be back for more!!!!

Food & service was very good, but a little too much rice for my taste. Definitely a different taste in Baytown.

Would I go back? Maybe? I don't know what Vietnamese place that charges for bean sprouts, first you give me less than a handful of bean sprouts for my pho. Do you know how much normal people put all their fixins in their pho? I call that a rip off. The pho broth lacked flavor, had to ask for extra hoisin sauce, still didn't help. Got the combination pho, it was presented well, all meats tasted well, there was a lot of pho noodles, although the broth makes everything. Banh mi was really good! Added an egg on top. Spring rolls were nice and plump. I would like to try the fried rice and the crawfish when it's season. For the area, this place is great. For a viet, I had better but not horrible. Seems like they have a full bar and it's place to come to drink too. Service was great! read more

The food in this place is good The service is exceptional We went at 8:30pm to find a nearly full restaurant, we were greeted immediately, asked to wait for a table, it was less than a minute until they hustled one up for us. The servers never let our glasses run empty, kept asking if we needed anything, sauces, napkins, how is our food. They worked so well together and we felt well taken care of. Food highlights were the corn, and the catfish. Everything was great but these were exceptionally well cooked. Only low light was the gumbo which was more like gumbo flavored pho. But all in all we would totally come back, portion sizes were great, and the staff were incredible read more

This place has never disappointed me, except for today. Once I got home we opened the food and my kid opened the pho container and the smell of expired food came out. I don't need my child getting food poisoning, the smell coming out of that pho was so strong and nasty. All the food lacked taste it's like the cooks have changed. I called and spoke to a girl who I told they should not be selling that pho. I asked for the manager and after about 3 min she came to the phone and said the manager wasn't in. I understand she's only an employee but wth don't all places need a manager or supervisor. I was trying to help a local business by ordering food and take home but after today, I definitely won't be coming back to this place. Im extremely disappointed with the food. Maybe the business needs to train their cooks a bit more. read more

I placed my order through waitr. I ordered 2 garlic noodles with shrimp (up charge). I received one order of garlic noodles and one order of garlic noodles with (4 shrimp) 4!!! 4 shrimp up for $5. I reached out to the restaurant and they claimed it was an issue with waitr. I was able to get a refund through waitr. As far as the food... it was meh. Definitely over priced for the quality. read more

Love the seafood boil and the restaurant was clean. Music a little loud but then again I'm losing my hearing. One of my family member's had the craw fish fried rice and that was pretty good. When I come back to visit my family will definitely come back and try the chicken wings. read more

Fantastic service and wonderful gumbo. My boy really liked the Crawfish as well. Excellent service
