Unfortunately, we won't be coming back. Awful crawfish etoufee. Heavy flour taste. Crawfish were so-so. Ordered fried pickles which weren't bad and they brought ranch and blue cheese for dipping. Neither the ranch or the blue cheese had any flavor...I mean zero flavor. Very weird. Had local $2 draft beers that were good though. read more

Nothing Supreme about Mr. Supreme Butler's customer services on 2/14/2022 @ 6:55 p.m. Went into Hanks's to celebrate my 45th birthday with my family. We were told the wait was 45 minutes to an hour for a table of (7). We happily waited our time, when the hour had arrived, we asked the Hostess if we could be seated. We were informed that we had to wait another 45 minutes to an hour for another table to clear to be seated and served. While I understand Valentine's Day at 5 pm was a busy time, I didn't understand why they sat smaller parties at tables that could have accommodated us. When brought to the attention of Mr. Supreme, we were told we would not be sat because they were short staffed and apparently the information provided by (2) of the Hostesses was relayed incorrectly. When we I informed Mr. Butler, I was disappointed in his service, he responded very rudely and loud, "I don't care if you write a bad review or report me, even followed us out of the door yelling his full name. I have heard nothing but great things about the food here at this location, which is why we drove out of our way patronize this location. I have never felt so embarrassed and threatened by management at a restaurant. However, I am glad this did not ruin my night and special occasion, the waitstaff at French Quarter was extremely nice and very accommodating read more

Finally decent cajun. I stick to fried oysters. They have killer oyster appetizers- nice beer selection. Little pricey compared to what you would pay for the real deal in new orleans- hear alot of cajuns around me so they must like it too. I don't do crawfish but last trip in everyone else was so I am guessing they are good. Desserts are great too. read more

Only made one quick visit here, so I'll limit my comments and ratings for now. Hank's is one of those places divy-looking enough that you might go through the following progression; 1) "I'm not stopping there!", 2) "Why did we stop here? There's no parking in front!" 3) "How is it that we've never stopped here before?" Hank's has a big menu considering its size. We tried the boudin balls (very tasty) and a catfish po' boy (sandwich was adequate, fries were pretty darn good despite their "out of the bag" appearance). Great service as well. I'm usually not in this area, but I'd try Hank's again when I am. read more

I gave Five stars for the food, and have to say Crawfish is very very good, the service is also ok they try hard to give you the service, so again I will say a good 5. But when it comes to the great for your table, they have not a clue how to make things work. Today my family of 7 came in, there was a area of 10 table and chairs that were not being used, as we said we had 7 the lady said 30-46 min. I kelp asking and finally asked a lady that looked smarter, she said the area would be opened for us, thus was after 30 minutes of sitting. I stress that you have a boss, some brains, and someone that has a clue. Disappointed in reception, with no clue but over all the food to great! Owners, have a smart thinking reception to keep the people coming in! Great great crawfish you read more

I love Pasta!!! I'm very picky when it comes to food, but I was totally satisfied I would totally recommend the Pasta with shrimp!!

Rude waitress. Watery Alfredo/pasta. Great flavor ! Crawfish has great taste did not buy though due to the two pound and my appetite . read more

Hank's Crawfish - Trio Crab rice - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Houston, Texas

NOT RECOMMENDED! Every time I come to eat in this location it's always disappointment! Some crawfish spots are better than this place. Quality and crawfish size is very disappointing! It's March 6th, not good quality of crawfish for the sky rocketing price of $8.99/lb BUT REQUIRED 2lbs per order! I wonder where they got these crawl dead's but they need to find someone that can supply these crawldeads with better quality and average size. Not filling you up. I wanna eat more but couldn't eat 2lbs as it's required to order not one pound but 2 POUNDS! read more

I am originally from New Orleans and lived in houston now 34 years and I thing I found Authentic N.O. style neighborhood seafood restaurant. Just tried it and it was great. Service was awesome and flavor reminded me of my grandmother's recipes. We will be regulars. Can't wait to try whole menu. read more

I really don't understand the raving about this place. It's JUST okay. (I agree with Alexander's post from 4/12- I'm from LA. I know how to REALLY judge this food.) The crawfish are alright, nothing special, not perfect, but slightly better than what you get in most of Houston. Shrimp and grits were greasy... How? I'm not sure. I have heard amazing things about their boiled shrimp, but haven't tried them. And the service is pretty lousy. read more

I love everything I try from here! I have tried 7 dishes and only been there twice! You can't go wrong with any dish! The parking lot is small and a little hard to move around when it is full. read more

The customer service here was friendly! Came here for lunch with a few co-workers. I was impressed with the Boudin, very tasty. I also ordered a bowl of seafood gumbo- I was really satisfied with the plentiful amount of seafood in the gumbo, especially the crab, but I felt the roux could've been better. 4 stars because our waiter did not know was anadouille sausage was... neither did another waitress who he called to ask... very weird for a CAJUN restuarant. They couldn't tell us on the spot what type of sausage was in my co-worker's reds beans and rice dish that he ordered they came later with the NAME-BRAND of the sausage lol. They were very nice though. Other than that I will most likely return since the boudin was good and other things on the menu look promising as well. read more

I can't support a business that is not Houston strong. I called in on March 16 to see if they would be showing the university of Houston versus Iowa State men's basketball game. Me and 15 of my friends were wanting to go sit and eat some good food and watch the game. I was told that they couldn't promise me that they would be able to change the channel to the game. Supposedly, this is what the Manager said, when I asked if the associate if they could ask their management. I decided not to go. A few of my of my friends went because they felt when they got there someone would agree to putting at least one tv on the game. Were they in for a surprise that the establishment refused to put a single TV in the building on the university of Houston cougars versus Iowa State men's basketball game. So much for this business being an institution in the city of Houston. Im Houston strong and cant support any business that's not. Do not support this business. read more

Delicious food. Brought some out-of-towners for crawfish. Added shrimp, crab and slab of chicken fried steak. All perfect!!

I ate here on Sunday past and we had gumbo , crawfish and fried rice seafood combo. The gumbo was very good and the crawfish were spicy as usual. They stay crowded and we frequently visit as the food is quite tasty. It is my wife's go to place for her crawfish fix. They have a small outside seating area which in the summer they have a mist that they spray to keep cool. Great idea! read more

We came here Sunday evening when I got off work, first time dining in since it wasn't packed (very rare). Immediately got a table outside. Server had a lot of knowledge, didn't look like they wanted to be there and the drink service was slow. Being a server I understood bar drinks aren't the servers fault but it also took along time to get water refills. Reason I give it 4 stars is because before going to Hanks I went to the restaurant website link from Google and it stated happy hour was all day Sunday's, main reason we came. We were told they do not offer happy hour on weekend. We would have ordered a lot more (spent more money) but went elsewhere once we finished. We usually order Togo. Togo service is quick (call it in) there is a drive thru window. Their crawfish and drinks are amazing. read more

Literally sat there for 20 minutes the guy walks by us and said I'm pretty you guys are gonna have to wait didn't even bother to ask us what kind of drink we want, so we waited another 15 minutes and still no service. Plus the place had no AC what so ever. If I could put zero stars I would. read more

The manager here treats his employees with complete disrespect, and disregard for his staff and their mental health. He will never last in the restaurant industry. I run a restaurant and my employees are incredibly valued because they are human. I teach them to do a good job, and they do a good job because of me. I hope the owners find this well, and look for better management. Supreme needs to learn humbleness and humility, along with emotional intelligence. Thanks for your time, i care for my people. read more

The highway 6 location features an intimate and busy location. The seafood is fresh and promptly served. Chef "Saw Nimrod" creates delicious and had beautiful to look at platters. Chef Saw is hard working and honest. I always ask him what's good before ordering. So not everyone likes a busy seafood restaurant but if you are, check this one out. read more

Came into hanks on a good Tuesday. I decided to try you all out being that I am a New Orleans native and it's very hard to find good boiled seafood in Houston . My hood friend Daija recommended y'all and we both left happy about the food but extremely disappointed is Desaire's lack of hospitality. Being that I am a server / bartender and so is my friend , we just could not believe how inattentive she was . Did not explain menu , mentioned happy hour but did not go into detail about the items . She said " we have an happy hour " and just stood there leading me to work for an explanation. She only asked once if everything was " okay " towards the bill tending which was very upsetting and honestly didn't want anything cause it took so long for her to ask. Normally on a $130 tab we would match it but in this case the tip reflected the poor service. Again the food was amazing I would come back for that ! read more

Hank's Crawfish - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Houston, Texas

Mmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm! I think if you take everything about Hank's into consideration, you can easily give it 5 stars. They have 5 levels of spice for your mudbugs, they offer corn and potatoes (at a small cost), they are conveniently located (for me), they have a drive through, they play good crawfish eatin' music, they have a gift area selling ymmuy brands of seasonings, they have a delicous full menu other than crawfish, they have plenty of parking, and last but not least their crawfish are usually pretty large and mighty delicious! Sometimes it takes a while to get a seat, so take this into consideration. They can only please so many people at once! read more

Just had dinner with the hubs everything was excellent! Server Kirk was Awesome! Drinks were on point ( forgot to ask for lady bartender's name) sorry. Boudin balls, hot wings & crawfish all DELICIOUS! LOVE THIS PLACE! read more

Perfect fix for seafood on HWY 6! Crawfish is the best in season and eaten on premises. Best outdoor setup for a stop in and out. Mac and Cheese is damn delicious to. read more

I like the place and the food... Spicy really good crawfish... Love the Crab and the shrimp ... It's not cheap but I like the food... The chicken wings are amazing (garlic parmesan)...!!! read more

What a joke ! Already 25 ft into the business and the baby kid working wouldn't allow us to sit without a face diaper. We went to Sams Boat on Towne Lake. What a great time, and well worth the $160 we dropped on Crawfish and beverages. Bye Hanks. read more

Pros: Parking in the rear. Cozy Creole decor. Attentive staff for a Friday. Decent portion of food. Cons: The shrimp fried rice was VERY greasy with little "flavor" that you'd expect from a restaurant like this. The shrimp on my plate were small and the fish was fried too hard. I'm a Cajun gal and I like to taste seafood when it's fried... not just batter. I was a bit disappointed. read more

Ralph & Rob were great! Excellent customer service. We got 12 lbs of crawfish half spicy and half extra spicy. The flavor was good and the level of spice was just right. read more

This has got to be the best crawfish this side of Louisiana. The spicy is spot on and definitely worth the wait.

alright, hanks is known in cypress for its amazing crawfish! They have the seasoning down to perfection. the only reason I'm leaving 4 and not 5 stars is because there pricing is outrageous for crawfish. I also don't appreciate paying extra for corn, sausage and potatoes but know almost all crawfish restaurants do. if you plan on going during the weekend plan for it to be packed!! read more

Horrible service we waited for an hour to get seated, we got seated finally in the patio. We waited 20 minutes with no one waiting on us, my husband asked who was waiting on our table and a staff member stated "Not sure management is aware" so we decided not to give them our money. This place is not organized at all and don't waste your time at this place. read more

Some of the tastiest crawfish I have ever had. The waitress was very honest and on it. Shay made our visit awesome and easy for us to decide we will be back. My BnL wished the cross contamination wasn't as much of an issue (shellfish allergy) but still the food and service was the best. The waitress was very knowledge and did advise what he could order read more

Best crawfish I ever had. Don't miss the fried rice too if you like some rice dish! The clean table and chair after every customer left, I felt comfortable to dine in. They restrict the number of customer to dine in too. read more

We were on the way to a friends birthday get together, but we were huuuuungry. So, we decided to stop by the Hank's off Highway 6 since the one on bellaire is pretty good. I had the gumbo and my husband had the catfish and shrimp plate, we did get a sample of the crawfish, but it's not in season and they were pretty small, but the seasoning was yummy. I did have a pork chop plate with dirty rice and it was okay, not too shabby. I make better pork chops but that's just me lol. Overall it was a good stop for some quick grub. read more

The place looks better on the inside! Best crawfish all season. The New Orleans habanero spice is hot, but worth the burn. Best mechalata I've ever had. read more

I've been coming here for years and I've tried a couple other crawfish places but this one the food has unique and it's my favorite of all time best place in Houston !! Friendly staff, love coming here with the fam and friends read more

Don't go to hanks if you have a big party. They will put you all in one bill and only take 2 cards. Service was slow and I could barely catch the attention of them. The food was not that good either, I would recommend la fisherman or red crab instead if you want real flavor in your food read more

Hanks has always been a go to place of mine. Sometimes the food isn't as good as other days & one time i got shellfish poisoning from the crawfish. But i love their food! read more

Eat in or Carry-out....Either way, you will not be disappointed. I have ordered crawfish from Hank's for over 3 years and have always been very satisfied with the crawfish. Until last night, I had never been inside because the to-go orders are picked up at the drive-thru window. My family and I went on Friday at 6:30 & they were beginning to get crowded already. There was a steady stream of customers coming in and by 7, they were packed! We ordered the Mardis Gras oysters, grilled boudin and calamari for appetizers and as I am typing this review, we are in line the next day ordering all 3 again!!!!! I cannot tell you which one tasted the best because I loved them all. We always order medium spicy crawfish with garlic. This time we ordered 4 lbs because my 10-yr old son wanted to try the hot crawfish (now he says medium is probably his best bet). If you choose garlic, you pay an extra 20 cents per pound at $8.19). The table near us ordered some drinks that looked good and by the sounds of their increased laughter, they must have had enough alcohol. I wish I had tried one but I did not see them until later during our meal. I will try one next time. I do not understand why Hanks only has 3 stars. I have ordered from Hanks at least 20 times and have never had anything that I was not satisfied with. Lastly, it has a nice welcoming environment with some cool decor. I heard they made some interior improvements but as I stated earlier, this was my first time dining inside. read more
