Out-of-towners, this is close to where we are staying. Found the place and it looks like a dive bar. Walked in and it looks like a dive bar. Ordered the shrimp and crawfish fried rice and a beer, and damn it the spot. Lots of shrimp and crawfish, good flavor, and a decent sized portion. Raul served us on Friday and again on Saturday night when we decided to return. My dad got the beans and rice and loved it, couldn't finish his portion. I enjoyed the Cajun pasta, again, a healthy amount of shrimp and a nice kick to it. Raul was quick to serve us and we got meals quickly. Personable guy too. Enjoyed the experience. read more

I was stuck in Dallas for a night after my layover because of the cancelled flights from storms. Figured I would go get my favorite food, and saw that I had limited options near the airport open past 10pm. So I am thankful this places closes at 2:30AM!!! I ordered the Combo #2, market price was only $42.99, which came with snowcrab, 2 lbs of crawfish, sausage, potato, corn. That was a pretty good price for a Californian! The crawfish were okay, the sausage was really juicy and I enjoyed. The snow crab smelled like ammonia ong. I didn't expect much but they should really get on that. The sauce was brown and gritty and soo dang salty! This place was 10 minutes from DFW and open late so I got what I got. Strawberry Daiquiri was basically a strawberry syrup slush mocktail. The restaurant was connected to a food court it appears, and is pretty old and casual. The storage freezers were next to the dining tables. Would never come back for sure, but my server was really nice! I was about to order chocolate cake and homegirl advised me not to LOL! read more

Got the crabs, crawfish, and shrimp boil bag and was disappointed. First, the bag was full of oil! It was separated from the seasoning but it made for an unpleasant experience. I've never had oily ship, crab, and crawfish before and would not recommend. The crabs were just ok enough to eat but pay have been old judging from the color and feel of the shell. The crawfish just were not appealing for me, not only because of the oil it was basting in, but they were a little grey and some were actually DIRTY! And being from Louisiana, that's a huge no no. The shrimp had their head on and looked better than they actually were. The shrimp were entirely overcooked and would unravel as I removed them from the shell. Bottom line, don't waste your time here. read more

No sauce just spicy paste on the seafood, shrimp and crawfish were both extremely soggy The man was kind,quick,and gave me extra butter for free thats the only reason i gave 2 stars read more

Cajun Crab Pub & Grill - Seafood Boiled Shrimp/ Half Pound Snow Crab/ 1 pound Craw fish Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Irving, Texas

Company work lunch we order to go, 2 of us got the crawfish by the LB. Crawfish were not cleaned and had smelled rotten. 1 girl got the crawfish po'boy and said it had no flavor. My manager got the fried fish platter and said it was cold on the inside when she bit into. Will not be eating here again nor recommending to anyone. read more

My favorite thing here is the crawfish. Everything else is overpriced and the quality doesn't match. I've never ate in restaurant and ordered takeout twice, so maybe I need to give it a chance in restaurant. Either way, I'm not a big fan and I'm not inclined to come by again. read more

Oh the lobster bites!! The food was very tasty and the rich boy was very good. Great amount of food for the price.

I almost always take photos when I review. The one time that I should have, I didn't. This is the first time I have ordered boiled crawfish from here this year. However, I have done it in the past with no issue. It is not my favorite place to go for crawfish, but it's the closest. I ordered 2 lbs of boiled crawfish with delivery between 630 and 7:30 PM. No issues with the delivery. However, the crawfish were horrible. First, they were rubbery. It's as if they had been sitting in some water for a very long time. Secondly, instead of being in liquid boil, it was a paste. Yes, that's correct. thick pasty seasoning, no liquid. When I saw the bag like that, I should have taken them back. Lesson learned. My thought process was that regardless of the paste seasoning, they could still possibly be good. I was wrong. I couldn't even eat half. For one, many were covered in the paste. No exaggeration. I just threw them away. Such a disappointment. The fact that they were willing to serve them like that is even more disappointing. I will not be ordering from Cajun Crab anymore. I'm still kicking myself for not taking a photo because this review does it no justice. read more

I got 2lbs of crawfish, with the Cajun original seasoning and the flavor was great. But the amount they charge for crawfish here is OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!!! 10.99 per lb is absolutely insane. From someone who's eaten crawfish their entire life I'm used to paying 3 to 6 $ per pound for amazingly cooked and seasoned crawfish and that comes with usually 4 potatoes and 4 corn for 2lbs. But I just got ONLY crawfish for 10.99 a pound. The service is good but the ambiance of the building is bland not really any life in this place, for the 2 hours I was here no one else walked into the door. Overall flavor was there but the prices they charge is absolutely insane. I could get a 20lb sack of live crawfish for the price of what they charged. If you don't care about pricing, come enjoy some good food. But as someone who grew up on eating this, the "Market price" they decide is insane and do not recommend anyone paying this price for regular crawfish. read more

I was feeling for some seafood order from here it wasn't bad but I think they could put more crab the sauce was coming out the bag they could have put it in two bags to not have so much of the fervor come out more good and cooked with a fervor I would give them a 6/10. read more

Cajun Crab Pub & Grill - My order how it came - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Irving, Texas

Don't have too many spots doing seafood boils around my place except this one. On this occasion though, I ordered the following - 1) Cajun Seafood Platter with fries - Comes with fried pieces of fish (3), shrimp (5), oysters and a couple pieces of hush puppies. The fish was cooked well, flaky and tasty. I did think the shrimp was a little bit overcooked on this occasion and the oysters didn't feel too fresh. The hush puppies were great! 2) Crawfish and shrimp fried rice - Excellent! The shrimp on this dish were cooked well and there was plenty of crawfish done in a bed of rice with onions, green peppers and cajun seasoning. Wonderful fusion dish. Overall a decent place to get your Cajun grub on. read more

Absolutely loved it! From the moment we walked in we smelled cleanliness and the aromatics of the Cajun food. The restaurant was super quiet and we were immediately seated. We ordered Cajun wings, cajun fries, and crab cakes to start. We later orders gator bites and the famous Catoufee. The catfish on the catoufee was so reliably breaded and flavorful. Though I do feel like it was a little on the salty side, mixing it with the rice helped to balance out the flavor. Our server Raul was an absolute delight! He was very attentive , and made sure we were taken care of out entire dinner. We will be back! read more

Went with a friend the location was centrally located located and the pictures looked ok. I don't plan on returning . #1 the air was not working well. #2 the restaurant is half Indian cuisine half Cajun cuisine. They don't serve catfish here. The shrimp is like less than an inch in size. Ambiance well let's just say the bathroom was a plug in porta potty in the parking lot read more

Great place!! I loved the waiter as he was really nice and quick with every request. The food was the best. Prices were inline with other places. We will be back... oh did I mention the full bar???

I've never had food that horrible in my life. It was an experience..... I wouldn't eat there again. My drink was way to sweet. The shrimp and grits taste like water. My wife had the fish it came out looking like chicken strips (RED FLAG) the fries were old and the crab cakes weren't authentic. read more

I would probably not return. I tried this place because it had good reviews on Yelp, but I was disappointed. The main reason is the overall cleanliness. A large black stain on the concrete in front of the door gives a wrong first impression. Upon entering, I was met with dirty windows, walls, and an overall sticky environment. This not only raised concerns about the hygiene of the kitchen, a crucial aspect for any food establishment, but also cast a shadow on the perceived quality of the food. The restaurant's identity was also a source of confusion. While it presents itself as a Cajun restaurant, the strong aroma of Indian food and a photo wall featuring Indian dishes not on the menu left me questioning its true culinary focus. As an Indian food enthusiast, this was not necessarily a negative, but it was certainly not what I expected from a Cajun restaurant. The food was decent but nothing special. Unless the food was excellent enough to overlook the cleanliness issue, I'll not be returning. read more

Did a to go order and no table covers to use. Order the crawfish, and food came in its usual bag, but no extra bad to throw away the shells, or protect it from leaking. Was difficult to eat when staying in a hotel that doesn't have a kitchen in the room. Cajun sauce didn't have garlic or onions, just the regular seasoning and butter, so not much texture. Crawfish was overcooked; meat was stuck on the skin so hard to peak off Ordering was easy, food was ready in 5 min. Ppl was polite and crawfish seems fresh, besides the difficulty of peeling, and better to eat if eating at home or a hotel with a kitchen. Crawfish was cheap so you get what you pay for. read more

Service started good but we were the only customers for AWHILE. With that being the case you would think the food would be on point. Fish wasn't cooked enough. Shrimp had too much batter. Definite Pub style environment but without frozen drinks. Service declined the rest of the evening to the point of having to repeat requests for items. read more

This little spot is a hidden gem. We ordered a lb of crab, a lb of headless shrimp, and a fried fish basket with fries. Yes, it was a lot of food, but we wanted to try as much as we could. The fish was well cooked, flaky inside crispy outside. The sauce the crab and shrimp were in was delicious. We did hot with all the flavors mixed. The crab was the star of the show OUTSTANDING the sauce did not take away from the sweet crab flavor, it was just so good. Service was prompt and friendly, our waiter answered our questions with confidence and checked on us often. Will definitely go back to this one. read more

Cajun Crab Pub & Grill - Menu - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Irving, Texas

This is a nuanced review because normally some of my included complaints would be a deal breaker... but the deep fried seafood is so goddamn delicious... I can't hate! I've ordered a few times, and EVERY SINGLE TIME they get the order wrong. Whether it's fries instead of coleslaw, or tartar instead of the requested hot sauce, they are awesome at messing up online orders. But the food? It's near perfection! I've tried the fish, chicken, shrimp, oysters and more fish and it's all been southern perfection. I'm knocking a couple of points on their inconsistency but still, I will order more. read more

UPDATE: The business owner inboxed me on Yelp with a really nasty response. I have included this in the photos. This did not include an apology if you were wondering. SHEESSSHH! Let me start by saying , I'm from Alabama and we take our seafood SERIOUS! I ordered crabs legs and corn through door dash. Back home we call this a seafood bag special. I ordered it with all the flavors and I was so excited . When I bit my corn I was immediately disappointed. The sauce tasted like hot sauce, THATS IT! What a waste. The crab tasted the same Ofcourse . Like , where were the other flavors listed? Also, they don't have boiled eggs ! You CAN NOT have crab legs without boiled eggs. When I saw all the positive reviews I set my expectations high but I have learned my lesson quickly . The search continues for good seafood. read more

Cajun Crab Pub & Grill - Nasty reply from business owner - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Irving, Texas

I'm visiting Dallas (Grapevine) and found this place on yelp. It's 13 mins from my hotel and it was going on 10pm and they don't close until 2am so that's a plus ! So i drove on over and they are located in a shopping center with tons of parking! Designated parking in the front for their customers as well. Walk in and it's 4 people at the bar and a couple all the way in the corner of the restaurant. Every last table had trash on it. They never cleaned it from when the previous person left. So I'm standing there waiting and waiting and waiting. There's no sign that says please wait or to seat yourself. So i stood there and finally the lady sees me from the kitchen as she walked by the door. She said let me see if i have a clean table, I'm thinking "you don't". She finds a table and it's across from 3 tables filled with trash! I got the boil for 2 which included crawfish, crab leg cluster, shrimp, potatoes, and corn. I added sausage and side of Cajun fries. Then EVERYONE disappeared. They went in the back and didn't come back out for 15 mins or so. My seafood comes out and no fries. They didn't drop them yet, had to wait 10 mins for those. The boil is so BLAND! I got all the flavors in one and even asked for Cajun and butter on the side to try to make it better. It tasted like they just cooked it in water and sprinkled Cajun and lemon pepper on it and shook up the bag. If i lived in Dallas i would never return. They are so slow. I've been waiting 12 mins so far for them to bring my check, the 3 tables across from me are still dirty, and there is now maybe 13 people in here. Oh, and it's very hot inside! I think something is wrong with their AC. read more

Average meal.... I ordered 2 pounds of crawfish for lunch and in my opinion they tasted average. Something seemed off, I travel for a living and eat my weight in crawfish every year but this portion was average. It was the meat and not the seasoning. Service was great, my one complaint was the men's bathroom. It was 12:30 noon and no one was dinning-in when I arrived... however, the bathroom was filthy. The trash was full and looked as if it hadn't been taken out since the night before. Nothing was clean in the bathroom. read more

Was eating the crawfish po boy I ordered through Door Dash and thinking it was okay, until I bit down on what I assumed must've been bone, until I pulled a piece of metal from my mouth (see photo) Could've seriously hurt me if I'd swallowed it. How does this even happen?! UPDATE - the next day I tried to eat something and my tooth came out in pieces. Had to have it removed, but had to get my wisdom teeth removed for them to work on the broken tooth as well - and still need an implant where the broken tooth came out, but didn't have an extra $3k laying around after what it cost me just to get them all out. Literally no one from this restaurant ever contacted me after I made the complaint and DoorDash called them, or after seeing my review online. I didn't try to sue them or anything, so I would've thought they would have been decent enough to contact me and see if I was okay, or offer to help with my dental bills since I didn't go the legal route - but nothing. I'm still in disbelief.. read more

Was excited to go out, and they advertised open until 2am. I showed up at about 10:00PM and they were closed.

I ended up here because the original place I went to was closed. Bad decision on my part. I ordered the shrimp etouffee and it was the worst "etouffee" I'd ever eaten in my life. It tasted like spicy tomato soup with shrimp in it. My fiancé had the shrimp PO' boy and it was delicious, which is why I'm giving this place 2 stars. IF and that's a BIG IF, I ever go back, I will definitely get the fried shrimp PO' boy and nothing else. Don't get the "etouffee". You've been warned! read more

Oh my goodness!!! This place is awful!!! I just did a grub hub order. In the mood for Cajun. Popeyes Chicken had better red beans than this. $6.99 for a side of tasteless beans???!!! The crab cakes are nasty dry and for sure frozen and burnt (see pictures). Yuck $12.99???!!! Seriously these people think a LOT of their crappy food. The chicken alfredo is nasty gross. It's unreal how bad it is. Tasteless. You can't add some salt?? What is going on. How could anyone give this place anything but a 1 star?!! I wish I could get a refund. This is ridiculous!!

THERE WERE ROACHES IN MY ICE CREAM!! Everyone please check your food before eating! After eating what we would consider below sub par Cajun food from Cajun Crab we decided to give their desert a fair chance. We ordered the s'mores whiskey cake with ice cream. I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the ice cream container there were little roach legs floating on my ice cream! I called the establishment and the representative Raul answered the phone. I explained that there were roaches in my ice cream and I needed to speak with someone in management. NOT ONCE did I get an apology for this, but I did receive was a rebuttal from the chef who stated " there's no way that could have happened". Well indeed it did and I will be filing a formal complaint to the Retail Food Establishments Program. Have a blessed day and stay safe read more
