    Yea I'm not a big Seafood person so when when my wife wants it i just stick to the fried food section, and the drinks. On this day we ended up getting a couple drinks while she got the seafood boil I had a drink and Fried fish basket I didn't get a picture of lol I was lit. Our waitress was cool she had the whole store to herself so she was all over the place. They always playing some type of music and always have a crowds which is a plus no one wants a quite boring restaurant setting.

    Black mussels, shrimp and plenty of garlic/butter with more on the side. Also had the steamed oysters.  So delicious, all of it.

    Amazing lunch special. Great price and excellent taste. I'm definitely coming back. Thank you for being there

    This was truly amazing! I did a walk in order, and the service was so fast. Upon entering you are greeted by the cashier who answered the phone also. I did see hand sanitizer near by. The place was very clean, and due for the week entry, there was only one customer. But they had plenty of orders for pick up. This food was amazing, I'm not really into seafood but I would come to Crab's Landing for it anytime! The sauce is actually inside with the food. Now I'm not much of a seafood person so that was new to me. But if you are ever downtown and want to actually get full while eating seafood, I recommend this place anytime!

    This spot just opened. It was so good. The breaded fried chicken and hush puppies were beyond amazing for appetizers. The boil was definitely an added touch although I was stuffed!!

    I've been twice now, both times getting standard butter only boils with shrimp and mussels. Everything is nicely cooked and I've been happy with my food and will go again. I tried the green mussels this last time and they are very large, but I think I prefer the black. Shrimp is excellent. Sweet potato fries are just ok.

    Catfish and fries

    I'm so disappointed! I will go back to try something else but never will I get the catfish again. I was so excited about this new restaurant near my home but unfortunately the catfish was seasonless. It was not cooked long enough and so unsavory

    Shrimp, crab legs, corn, red potatoes in garlic- butter, Cajun sauce.

The food was absolutely delicious--full of flavor and exactly what you'd hope for from a spot serving Southern cuisine. Every dish felt fresh, well-seasoned, and made with care.

It created a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere from start to finish. If you're looking for great Southern food paired with top-notch service, this is definitely a place worth checking out.

The other customers were all friendly and made conversation too. Lots of people grabbing a bite to eat here before heading upstairs to the Attic for live music. Now the food! Damn, that was good. I had the special, crawfish and shrimp creole. It had a lot of flavor and just the right kick from the spices. The rice was perfectly fluffy, and I couldn't stop eating the hush puppies. If you're here, grab dat hurricane too. I could sip on that all day, especially in the summer.

    It's the rare occasion when I get to visit a restaurant that was featured on the TV show "Diners,…read moreDrive-ins and Dives," and it's a true privilege. I don't take it lightly. I spent a lot of time preparing. My mom even made me a special outfit. Remember, in the movie Goodfellas, when Joe Pesci thought he was about to become a made guy? It was kind of like that. Fortunately, I wasn't led into an empty room where I was promptly shot in the back of the head. (Whew!) I was conscious of the potential for violence at Hwy 61 Roadhouse, because its name--and the overall vibe--calls to mind the classic Patrick Swayze movie from the 1980s, which was in fact set in Missouri. I was ready to punch my way out of there, if necessary. The crowd here skews older, and it occurred to me that I may have been able to take out quite a few of them on my own. There was live music, and the band called to mind something you might see in a circa-'97 Christopher Guest movie, or Marty and Bobbi Culp. It gets loud, to the point where you can't hear what the person across the table from you is saying. You might consider bringing a date here, if you'd prefer not having a conversation. A guy from my running group loves this place and spoke highly of the BBQ Spaghetti. Normally, I wouldn't eat anything like that, but this guy seems like he might know ball when it comes to delicious restaurant meals, if you catch my drift. Turns out, he wasn't wrong. It wasn't just good, this might be the way to eat pulled pork. I'd make it at home, except that store-bought barbecue sauce is disgustingly sweet and processed-tasting, and it wouldn't be worth trying to make my own. I toyed with the idea of getting a burger, which is a safe go-to in restaurants in areas where the spice level is often inquired about, but I've eaten so many of them lately. Then I saw that they carry a Shrimp Po Boy. It seemed like the perfect choice. Shrimp Po Boys are never not good, even the one they used to carry at Popeyes during Lent back in the pre-chicken sandwich era, and this place supposedly specializes in Cajun food. It didn't disappoint... for the most part. It was a bit bread-forward for my liking. Some places hollow out the bread a little bit, to make room for the fillings. Hwy 61 doesn't, and they use a weirdly large roll. I love bread, so this wouldn't necessarily be an issue, but there was nothing particularly special about this bread. They load you up on shrimp, which are fried hard, like chicken wings from a hood Chinese place. It makes for a satisfying crunch. The lettuce and tomatoes provided a fresh, healthy-seeming contrast, and the remoulade is just spicy enough to keep things interesting. I'm definitely curious to try some of the other menu items, including some of the more authentic Cajun selections--the etouffees, gumbos and what have you. If only I could get them to bring me a sampling of everything, "on the arm." I'd show up in backwards sunglasses and tell them I'm there filming a TV show, but alas, they've already been featured on a TV show, and I wouldn't want to run the risk of having to actually fight someone.

    I got the Pulled Pork Supper. It is shredded pork, served on sourdough bread. I got it with BBQ…read morespaghetti. The pork was a little tough and the portion was a little small for $17. The spaghetti was blander than I remember too. I thought the sauce used to be spicier. We'll have to give them another try. The restaurant is decorated with a fun vibe. We were there on a trivia night, but we were leaving as it was starting. It looked like fun. They also have a lot of live music too.

    Gumbo 2 Geaux is the perfect place to dine on Friday during Lent. I went for one of my favorites,…read moreClam Strips, but they were sold out. Since there were no clams, I went for the Catfish Basket. The Catfish Basket had multiple catfish fritters, steak fries and two hush puppies. They also provided a cup full of sliced onions and pickles. Plus, a small serving of Remoulade. I enjoyed the cajun breading on the catfish, it had a flavorful spicy kick. The steak fries were cut fat and thick and I liked the seasoning. For me, they could have been crispier. The Hush Puppies were good, but I was disappointed when I saw a box of Classic Hush Puppies being delivered by their supplier. Homemade Hush Puppies are so much more flavorful. They've been promoting, Barq's Creme Soda on FB and Creme Soda was a favorite when I was growing up, so I couldn't resit ordering one. It was cool, refreshing and brought back flashes of memories. Oh, it was also a great accompaniment beverage to my Lent dinner. Customer Service is good, because chances are you will be waited on by one of the owners. They are true hands on owners and big supporters of the Alton community.

    We were excited to try this new Cajun-style restaurant, and the food did not disappoint! We were…read morethe first ones in the door at opening and ordered to dine inside. The Crab Cakes, Messy Wedges, and Crawfish Ravioli were all amazing. The rice was slightly undercooked, but the sauce and main ingredients were absolutely delicious. Since it was our first visit, we ordered directly from the menu. We later noticed many other guests ordering the lobster mac & cheese--which we definitely would have tried (and even taken to go) had we known about it sooner. After realizing we had forgotten dessert, we placed an order for two slices of King Cake to go about 15 minutes after our lunch order. Unfortunately, this took an additional 45 minutes to receive. Be prepared for longer waits--anywhere from 20 to 60 minutes for food. The staff that day seemed a bit overwhelmed and struggled with ticket organization. Several customers picking up pre-ordered King Cakes were told it would be at least an hour, or staff couldn't locate their orders. We also witnessed a couple of customers return because half of their orders were missing. It was Mardi Gras weekend, so definitely a peak time, and the staff clearly could have used more support. That said, everyone remained patient and understanding through the hiccups. Would I come back? Absolutely. The food was excellent, and the turtle King Cake slices were incredible! I'd recommend having a visible board listing daily specials, available "by-the-slice" King Cake flavors, and dessert or donut options. There were so many things we would have loved to try but didn't realize were available. Overall, a great hidden gem with fantastic food--and tons of potential as things smooth out.
