I really enjoy Captain Brad's They have great drinks, good food, staff is super friendly & they have plenty of options for the kiddos. The wings are super crispy & have nice flavor, we love the fried deviled eggs, mozzarella planks, the pretzel is massive. Their gumbo is decent, I love the redfish, fried shrimp, and their boils. It can get pretty packed so we always call beforehand so we aren't waiting too long for a table. read more

Always a solid spot. My go to when my friends from other parts of town come visit Northside. MacBeth has always been my recommended server and I have never have heard a complaint from my parties I sent here. Thanks again for being awesome. read more

Portion size for the price was not good. Service was lacking on the day we went. The food tasted ok but nothing outstanding.

We have been to Captain Brads for boiled crawfish often. Unfortunately tonight's experience was not good. We are crawfish connoisseurs, eating boiled crawfish often and being from South Louisiana. The crawfish tonight were NOT fresh. Numerous dead crawfish which were horrible. All the crawfish were off. There was evidence that the entire batch was spoiled. The digestive tracts "veins" had very little material in them. That is a sign that the crawfish had not eaten in a long time. This is consistent with crawfish that have been out of the water a long time, stressed and lacking oxygen. Crawfish are only good for a couple of days. Trying to keep them in the sack for several days will kill them or injure them to the point that they loose taste and firmness. I spit at least 15 crawfish out! The rest of them were tasteless. read more

Service was great, very friendly and attentive......We only had soup and appetizers....... Clam chowder was very thick, tasted ok, but lots of potatoes......Mexican cocktail was watery, with a few whole shrimp and a couple onions and peppers.....not to our liking.......happy hour calamari was TINY....... Surprised.... Most happy hour apps. Are the usual size.... However, the calamari was the best of our 3 choices....... Probably will not return....... The indoor decor is really well- done..... they need to concentrate more on the food quality! read more

My family has been passing by this place for a long time!! We were so excited to try it. We are a family of 7 and every meal we ordered a side from the 2 kids meals were HORRIBLE!!! No seasoning, soggy catfish and the boudain balls were all rice and the size of a ping pong ball. I had to use hot sauce, ketchup and tartar sauce just to get flavor. A tipsy mermaid as also ordered and it taste like fruit juice no alcohol what so ever! I WILL NOT BE RETURNING AND I WILL / WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT!! The biggest waste of $130!!! read more

The best Friday spot there is! Macbeth and Annelisa is the way to go! They make sure you get taken care of.

CRAWFISH REVIEW!! This place has always been great, atmosphere is fun and the staff is also amazing. I finally had CRAWFISH here and I'm regretting not doing so sooner FOOD-Crawfish: I was recommended to get the spicy garlic mixed with the old bay and let me tell you it was a solid recommendation! The flavor was amazing, not dusted, and juicy juicy juicy. Running down my face juicy. The spice level was legit and I love hot food. I was literally crying tears and nose running the entire time haha. Worth every tear!! The bugs were super clean, we found one baby strand of grass and we actually looked for it because of how impressed we were with the cleanliness. 100% recommend and will be back. read more

Well for starters I have to give props to my waiter Joseph F he was simply amazing!!! He went over and beyond customer services guidelines!! As for the food, I ordered a variety of things. For starters had the fried deviled eggs and fried green tomatoes. Once they arrived they were well presented but lacked SOOOOO much flavor. The batter didn't have a taste on the tomatoes and the egg just tasted like potato salad, the shrimp over the top of the egg was a nice tough but it still didn't help the lack of flavor. Moving along to the entrees, the red fish was super bland as well it was topped with a crawfish bisque or something of that nature, you couldn't even taste the crawfish on it. The rice underneath the fish was ok, and the green beans were stiff they could've been steamed longer. Redfish holds flavor no matter how it's cooked but it lacked in that department. For desert I ordered the bread pudding, you can tell the pudding was very very VERYYYY old it was topped with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream, but due to the stiffness and dryness of the desert I wasn't interested in eating anymore of it. I recommend a little more seasoning and efforts to be put into the dishes. Sprinkle with love and not a rushed effort and the food might be a hit. Not sure I would give them a second try or not....

Great ambiance (although very busy), felt comfortable. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Appetizers galore, but we decided to try the avocado with crab and crawfish pieces in a decadent sauce. ( can't remember the actual name). It was good. I ordered the Dungeness crab platter. It's plentiful. Will definitely come back! read more

If you are looking for authentic Cajun it's not gonna be here. The food was not bad I was just expecting something different. Also the waitress spent a lot of time sitting at a table with her friends. I had to yell out to get her attention. I have no problem yelling I prefer not to yell at dinner time. read more

My sweet daughter went to this place to purchase me seafood, today. I'm currently living in a hotel due to Beryl. When I told her I wanted some baked fish, I did not specify where from. Captain Brads has the worst seafood I've ever had. I wrote them off my radar several years ago. The fish was as tasty as cardboard. It was tough, and rubbery. The fried green tomatoes were mush. The toast was mush! The only thing I was able to salvage on this plate were the vegetables. Thank goodness it was not a complete waste of time. Oh, the sauces? They taste like Mayo with a squirt of lemon. This place sucks!!!! read more

Hands down one of the BEST dining experiences I've ever had! From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming, and attentive The real star of the show though? The crawfish. Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and cooked to absolute perfection--honestly, some of the best I've ever had. The rest of the food was just as impressive--every dish was packed with flavor and clearly made with care. And the owner, Britney? She's a total rockstar. Her passion and energy shine through in everything, and she truly makes the whole experience unforgettable. Can't wait to come back! read more

Every time we come to Captain Brad's it's great food with great service. This time we tried the seafood Ash Wednesday special which came topped in a Cajun sauce with shrimp. It was tender, and full of flavor. Kiddos had 2lbs of crawfish (a little too salty) and the Mac and cheese. We got our go to drinks and enjoyed a great night out with the family! read more

Super friendly staff. Our server was very attentive, friendly, and cordial. (Apologize I forgot his name). The surf and turf burger is just insane. You better have about 2 rolls of paper towels to eat it. Also when in season, fantastic crawfish. read more

Well I love the decorations as the murals evoke seaside scenes and underwater animals. The food was okay. We had a table of 12 folks for a birthday party. The server was really good. Patient with us as we ordered the appetizers first and then the main after appetizers were finished. I had the Brussel sprouts with crabmeat, bacon and a good yellow sauce (4.5 stars). Another person has oysters Rockefeller. The presentation was nice on both. My main was 6 fried shrimp and 6 coconut shrimp. I wasn't a fan of their tartar said or pina colada sauce. I guess I'm used to the tartar sauce I've had in almost every other seafood restaurant. And I love the dipping sauce at Outback for the co but shrimp, so was expecting something like that for the coconut shrimp here, but the pina colada sauce was a runny liquid (3 stars). The flavor didn't seem to compliment the coco shrimp. Next time I go o want to try the Big Net Shrimp Platter (see menu). My husband got the Texas Redfish and he really liked it (4.5 stars). They do have about 6 TVs in the bar so you have a view of the game from every seat in the bar. NOTE: the bill has an automatic 20% tip added to the bill on the receipt. read more

Born from years of experience, Capt. Brad's was formed from the results of hard work and dedication from a loving dad that raised a daughter with the love and courage that inspired her to venture out on her own and build the dream restaurant he always wanted. Modeled closely after the several that he started, she brought this baby to life with her character and with full dedication to her dad. And with that came some now excellent customer service and some BadAss food. My favorites there are the fried catfish and of course the spicy crawfish. To mimic my experience you need to order them 3X Spicy and with a side of their spicy dipping sauce. If you like em spicy, you're going to totally enjoy them at Capt. Brad's. Oh... And you will save plenty of money because compared to everyone else, I've been able to find them there at $5.99 lb. I'm giving them 4 stars only because I've struggled to find a really good drink that I like that wasn't a little heavy on the sweet side. I prefer a strong hurricane or even a long Island to pair with my crawfish. They come a bit on the sweet side from what I've tried. Nevertheless, I'm all in on the food. So much that I joined their VIP club to receive some of their awesome discounts and promotions. Eat Fish and Prosper read more

CB's is one of several on my local restaurant rotation. I like the staff, the building, the parking, the food, the bar, the bartenders, the owner, the story, etc... you get the gist!! If you are looking for good seafood locally, this is your place. (I said good, not great) As an avid fan of Blue Water Grill, I was happy to jump ship when I returned to Houston and heard that Brittney had moved her Dad's legacy to a new brand. I love the family story. Everything I have had on the menu is solid. Could it be better? Yes! This is not a restaurant known for presentation. It is food on a plate. As long as that is their goal, that is fine with me. I eat here because seafood is not something I can cook very well and depend on others to satisfy my cravings. Between me and my large extended family, we have had many things on the menu. I honestly would tell my readers here to try whatever sounds good and you will get a solid meal. I do especially love their chowders, gumbos, etc... So just for the review and some thought I will list my few grievances. Food is often not served HOT. I like hot fried food. Hot fries, hot shrimp, hot fish, etc. I will say that whenever I have brought this to the attention of my server it has always been happily rectified. The staff is precious and I sense they like their job and want the customer happy. It seems in the last year the food has shrunk; smaller shrimp, smaller boudin balls, smaller crab legs, smaller hush puppies. This is a concern. I love CB's and truly do not want them to start phoning it in simply because they are a beloved institution. I'm not sure if all the food is proprietary or SYSCO, but I hope CB's will pay attention to the food and make sure it is ALWAYS up to the standard we have come to know and love over the years. In the meantime, I will continue to visit CB's with friends and families, small and large groups. I hope they don't disappoint. read more
