    Crawfish etouffee
    Christine D.

    The ambiance was good. We went on a Saturday evening and there was a live musician there playing on a sax and he was so good. The restaurant is divided in half with really high walls as you enter, so you couldn't really see the live music from the right side of the restaurant where we were sitting. Food: We ordered fried mushrooms and fried pickles for appetizers for the eight of us. The mushrooms were delicious and I would definitely recommend these. The pickles were good, too, but on the salty side. They were sliced thinly and had a great crisp. The ranch dip that accompanied both dishes added a good flavor to it all. For our entrees, we ordered fish strips and chicken strips with fries for the kids, a catfish executioner (fried catfish with red beans and rice and cornbread, creole pasta with garlic toast, the large fried foods platter, crawfish etouffee, and a bowl of gumbo. The clams were on the smaller side, but good. All of the food tasted fresh and was good. The service however, ruined the overall experience. We entered the restaurant, which is divided in two by tall walls. There were tree tables aside from us. While we were there, at least five other tables were sat but no additional staff was assigned to our side. We had to flag down our waiter for drinks (which he did not bring completely out at one time. Kid drinks were delivered after asking twice and finally asking a completely different waiter as he was exiting the kitchen.) Wedge asked for lemons on three separqte occasions, which were never delivered. We had to call our waiter to order our main courses after waiting for him to come after appetizers were delivered. We had to ask for water refills twice before he came and had to do the same to get our bill, for boxes, and then to pay the bill. We did not stay to get our receipt cause who knew how long that would take? A table next to us sat down maybe 10 mins after we did. When we left, they were only ordering. They had an app but didn't even order their main dishes yet. They were very patient to have waited so long for no one to show up. I get being busy and it may have been his first time working but that's not all on him. No one else checked on the tables or to see if he needed help. We were nice each time we had to ask for something, but to have to do so for everything every single time was a bit much.

    Good food and service. Price was right. They have a Sunday brunch as well. Will definitely visit again.

    It was great!! Service was outstanding, food was great, ambiance was good. I'm definitely going back, when I go back to Houston.

    I've enjoyed my food hear and today was excellent. Ordered catfish vermilion and it did not disappoint. Sauce and veggies are so good as well.

    Great chairs at the bar. Food is good, beer is ICE COLD and the service rocks....

    Barbi and I love to French
    Fox E.

    Barbi and I love to French, we do it all the time. We sometimes French when we come to French Quarter. Okay, we only came twice so far and both times were with family and neither time did we French (or maybe I'm just forgetting). But we do like it. There are some things on the menu that I don't like, and then there's some that are amazing such as the rice with red beans and the spicy sausage. We're lucky that the people we go here with - mostly blood related to Barbi - let us try their food in return for some of ours, so I've tried plenty of things. But I do think that the portions are too small and the prices are a bit high which is the only reason I gave four instead of five stars. Plus I'm pretty spoiled when it comes to enjoying New Orleans food. If this were in New Orleans, I wouldn't give 4. By Houston standards, it's a 4 or 5.

Patio outside not covered, so when it's hot you have to try and hide near the sides with benches that are closer to the building for fake shade. Service- easy, order at the counter. No wait time.

    Nut allergy friendly: Pretty much no issues here!…read more Parking: There's some in the strip mall but definitely less than at the Bellaire location. Time to Appetizers: 20 Minutes Time to Crawfish: 25 Minutes It's a solid branch from the main location in Bellaire, but they're missing some things. For example, the Bellaire location has the new Viet-Cajun flavor of sauce that hasn't debuted here yet (though you can DIY a mix). (Review is for July 2026 if they've updated since then) We got here at 6:05PM and got seated with no issues. Ordered the following: Combo #1 with extra corn and potatoes (3.5/5): Crawfish isn't in season, so don't be surprised at my low rating. It's still great and flavorful all around. Garlic Noodles with Shrimp (4/5): Still incredibly rich and buttery and garlicy and great for a palate cleanser. I'd skip the shrimp; you get eight pieces for $10 extra and that's not really worth it. Crawfish Beignets (4.5/5): Still a fantastic appetizer. Comes out hot, crispy, buttery, and is a really indulgence. 1 lb. Little Neck Clams (4.5/5): I liked these more than the crawfish tbh. It really does depend on what's in season. Very easy to eat, very flavorful. Service was generally good but our server seemed slammed; it took a long time to get water refills and to place extra orders (we got a second order of beignets to-go). Market price for crawfish is high and they're not in season, so don't be afraid to ask. The Combo #1 in July 2026 was $22. Overall, I'll probably be back during crawfish season especially because it's more convenient for me than the Bellaire location, but the Bellaire location has it beat for general atmosphere after the remodeling and much better options for mixes there.

Inside it's a nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it. I ordered a house salad for $9 to start and the Pasta Rosa entree for another $28. The salad arrived first with a generous amount of romaine lettuce with diced tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots and chopped eggs on top. With my chosen ranch dressing it was a good tasting salad. The Pasta Rosa dish had sliced Parmesan strips on top of penne with shrimp, crawfish and sausage for the protein with mushrooms and a tomato cream sauce. This meal initially tricked me. My first impression was that while there was plenty of protein the taste of the tomato cream sauce was lacking some flavor. I expected more. However as I kept eating and getting beyond the top layer of the food the flavor increased significantly. I think that the proteins caused the sauce in the lower half of the dish to create more punch. This dish got better and better and I changed my mind. It turned out to be a very good tasting and filling meal. Finally the table service was very good too. P.S. I also tried part of another appetizer which was the bar b q shrimp for $16.
