Kenney Seafood - Seafood Markets Near Me - Slidell, Louisiana

Ya know the best thing about this place was the service! The little short haired lady running around delivering food, etc was so friendly and funny. We ordered boiled shrimp and crawfish. The flavor was ok. It was a little lemon heavy though, but ok. The problem to me was it seemed to be like the crawfish was reheated. It was a little soft like it had been previously boiled then reboiled. The shrimp was cold which they said, but when u go to a place you'd think it would be fresh boiled and hot! The corn was dynamite I must say! All the other fried foods coming out looked great. The shrimp poboy looked amazing. read more

Amazing! Seafood here supposedly comes fresh from their boat daily, and it's one of the few places that have crawfish boils during off season. Oysters are HUGE! Wow! Some of the biggest oysters we've seen around town. Definitely did not disappoint. read more

I am so sorry to write this review. This was my favorite seafood venue. We had a house on the lake in Slidell for years and bought seafood regularly here. I currently live between Covington on a farm and New Orleans. I drove all the way to Slidell from New Orleans this morning for jumbo lump crab meat. I get there and asked the kid was it fresh? He said yes it was picked this morning in Irish bayou. They wrapped it and bagged it before I saw it. We have a dinner party this evening and imagine our surprise when we opened the tub and not only is it ALABAMA crab meat but it has frozen! The recipe we were using it in can't have frozen as it's mushy and watery. Terrible. I called and they said to freeze it and bring back. I drove 40 miles for it I'm not driving it back. They could care less as they have gotten so big. Don't patronize these ungrateful people. They don't need your business or that's what they said on phone. UPDATE The manager called and offered TO DRIVE ME Some that John Beth didn't take. He said they sold all the fresh to restaurants and the owner said to sell the frozen cheaper and tell everyone but they forgot to tell the kids working. It helps but still not good. read more

Love their boiled crawfish, they also have great food on the menu with large portions! They know how to cook and they have great selections for sale in the seafood market! read more

Worst Hot Sausage Po'Boy EVER! I'd never been to Kenney's but decided to do so, based on the Yelp reviews while visiting Louisiana this past week. The service was lousy, the employees didn't acknowledge me for a full five minutes while they carried on a conversation behind the counter. I was unsure of protocols, whether it was self seating or wait for a hostess to do so, I was not sure if it was a "pay prior or post" ordering establishment, etc. With a less than enthusiastic order taker, I placed an order for a fully dressed hot sausage poboy with cheese & a side of fries. Others in my party also placed their orders. After seating ourselves, (it's a "pay prior" establishment), our orders arrived relatively fast. My friends' poboys, which were oyster, and they were both made properly, however they did not find the flavor to be above par, as they said they'd tasted better when visiting New Orleans. We all noticed that the french bread used was a bit old, b/c it was hard---a little too hard. I excused myself to go get the missing cheese for my sandwich and upon returning, I really looked at the meat and noticed the hot sausage was burned into three hard blackened circle crisps. I bit into my sandwich, now with the cheese and found the food to be absolutely inedible and did not continue to eat beyond the second bite. I just ate the fries. They use those battered and seasoned Rally's/Checker's fries, sold in stores. While in the middle of a conversation, with one friend, a waitress came into the area which was empty except for our party of four, and began clanging pans together as she cleared the tables around us. The clanging was so loud, my friend asked if they were preparing to close. The waitress did not respond, but whenever my friend or I began to speak, the clanging resumed. We left and I, personally, will never return. read more

Best boiled seafood in town. Unfortunately, the fried seafood plates aren't as good. Very little seasoning! Despite the lack of flavor, there's a plus in the numerous sides you can choose from. I'll return for boiled crawfish and fresh fish, but not the seafood platters... read more

Prices are good. Always great seafood available. Fast service. Only thing I don't like is the fee for credit card users. Other than that decent place. read more

Had a Kenny's seafood weekend. Excellent shrimp po - boy Friday evening. Bought six sacks of live crawfish for my nieces couple shower In Springfield , Louisiana by the Tickfaw River. Pick up crawfish around 9:30 A.M.. Kenny's owner help us keep the crawfish moist for the hour drive. He put ice and wet sacks on top of the crawfish for our 1:00 boil. The couple shower attendee's were impress by the size of the crawfish. Excellent customer service from Kenny's. Alway's a Kenny's Seafood customer , Kevin Thomas read more

I came to Kenney's Seafood for the first time in several years. I now remember why I haven't been back. I ordered the red beans and catfish special with the corn and crab bisque on the side. As far as the food goes, the catfish was salty and a little over cooked. The tartar sauce was very tasty so it made the fish bearable. The red beans were watery and rice was undercooked. The corn and crab bisque was very sweet, almost like sugar was added to it. I had lunch with two other people, both ordered the same thing and had the same critique. That wasn't the worst part. The worst part was the customer service. I ordered a cup of ice because I don't drink soda (or anything else for that matter) and I brought a bottled water with me. Rebecca was working behind the counter. She charged me and I went to get ice from the ice machine. I looked at my receipt to see what my number was and noticed that she charged me $2.49 for a cup of ice. I went to the counter and told her that she charged me $2.49 for Ice. She said, "oh we have to". I said, "well, I'm not paying $2.49 for ice and I would like a refund". Rebecca instantly got an attitude. She went in to the back of the restaurant, came back out, pulled $2 out of the tip jar and handed it to me. Then went in to the register and gave me .50 (forgetting about the tax I guess). I asked her what she wanted me to do with the cup and she said, "leave it on the counter". When I got to my seat my friend that I was eating with was complaining that she was charged extra for using her debit card. Don't get me wrong, it's not about the cost of $2.50 ice, it's that Rebecca didn't mention the charge not only for my ice but also for the fee when using a debt card. To top that off, her attitude was nasty. At the end of the day she threw the Ice away and lost 3 customers in the process. read more

Awesome food and a great price! We were actually thinking we were at another restaurant we had read about. Glad we stopped here! Going back soon for fresh seafood to bring back home. read more

Omg, Jackpot! Thank God I've finally found #1 Crabs! Who knew! I probably haven't had #1's since bf Katrina. I used to drive 30 minutes to Middendorfs bf they were bought out by the owners of Bella Luna from New Orleans. Since then, the crabs have never been the same and they claim they have #1's and they aren't. They won't even warm them for you. (Sorry Middendorfs) But here comes Kenney's Seafood! A friend told me about them who lives out in Slidell. He offered to bring them to Metairie for me when he came in for work during the week. I asked if they had seating and when he said yes I decided well why not go there and get them warm right out of the pot? That's exactly what I did and more yesterday. Can't beat the prices! I think for a dozen Jumbo #1's were $39? They were awesome! Such a treat bc I love boiled crabs as I've grown up eating them my whole life. The drive is exactly the same for me. 30 minutes from Metairie, and you get the view of the lake. Kenney's is part seafood market or you can order to go or even eat in! For dessert we had their homade pralines. Delish! Kevin picked the best crabs, and all the girls were especially helpful when we needed extra things here and there! I would definitely take the drive again to fetch some local seafood! One of my other favorites....Jumbo Lump Crabmeat..market price right now 6/27/17 $19.99lb! One more thing..we got a to go shrimp dinner for Birdie who helped raise my mom. Bird is 105 years old and is all there. She highly enjoyed her gumbo and shrimp! I took a pic for you to see her excitement! That's all folks! read more

Love this place! I've been to Slidell a dozen times in the last year on business and today was my first visit to Kenney Seafood- stupid me! The service was excellent and the food was as well. You get very reasonable portions for the price. I'm not crazy about the type of batter they use- I think it's a regional thing since every seafood place in Louisiana seems to use the same kind. But, it was still really, really good and I am already planning my return visit to try more of the menu. I'm totally satisfied with my experience and offer my heartfelt appreciation for not only great food, but service that made me feel welcomed and appreciated. Kudos! read more

Visited here for the first time, it was recommended by one of the tour guides in NOLA. We took a chance on it and we loooooveed it! Delicious,fresh and clean facility. Portion side was great, not overly greasy, and was seasoned perfectly. We will definitely be back! Oh also try the crawfish pie, you won't be disappointed. read more

Awesome Seafood #1 My brother always has me get fresh crawdads (Crawfish) from here and bring them to Florida before I go visit. Never disappointed with 5* service and food!!! YUMM YUMM read more

The food here is always top notch, great service, and the food is always fresh. With the modifications to the entryway the place is a little crammed when waiting on your food read more

Kenney's is our go-to place for fresh seafood! Our go to is their crawfish, which you can buy boiled or live, and their fish. I love that they will filet the fish for you so that there is no messy prep work for you to do once you get home. While they do offer crab meat and crab fingers I do wish they would offer pre-boiled crab legs. They may have frozen crab legs in the freezer but I've never actually checked. The service can sometimes be slow but it's because the place is always crowded so there's not much they can do to prevent that. The staff is always friendly and willing to answer any questions you may have. I've only eaten at the restaurant a few times but their food is great! We've had the friend shrimp which is a generous portion. The corn and potatoes are super spicy so beware! read more

This place is always packed and for good reason. The seafood is amazing. Boiked crawfish and shrimp are mouth watering!

This is probably my favorite spot to pick up fresh and boiled seafood! The cooked food is always consistent and good. This place is always packed however with the adequate staff there is never a long wait matter of fact about the time I decided what I wanted in my head while waiting I'm already being asked can I help you read more

Fresh seafood market is THE BEST! The cooked to order food is really good as well. Probably my favorite commercial boiled crawfish and the PO boys are good too. Great place to pickup a slab of fish if you want to clean it yourself and cook it. Many varieties, freshest catch, and affordable pricing. read more

Great Yelp find. Tasty food, big portions, fast and friendly service, and decent prices (better than most in the area). My family had a shrimp/catfish platter, shrimp platter, shrimp po' boy, grilled chicken po' boy, and boudin balls. The chicken po' boy was the only one that wasn't outstanding, but still not a bad meal. The shrimp po' boy was ah-may-zing. Open on Sunday until 5PM. This is my first time in Louisiana and I would definitely come again. read more

So this was my 1st time here. I usually stop at at another seafood restaurant less then a block away. I thought this place had a larger selection of seafood. I had 2lbs of shrimp and a few blue crabs. The shrimp were slighty over cooked the crabs were just ok. The gumbo was great. Im giving this place 3 stars untill I can invest more time into this place read more

Kenney Seafood - Shrimp and crabs - Seafood Markets Near Me - Slidell, Louisiana

I stopped in for crabs and I was more than satisfied!!!! They were beautiful, big and full! Will definitely be back!

I visited the market and restaurant. Service at the market was quick and efficient, and the boiled shrimp are beautiful. I had an oyster poboy at the restaurant. The oysters were piping hot and crispy, and the serving was more than generous. I will be a repeat customer if I am in the area again. read more

I have often eaten here but after today that's not going to happen again. I ordered two poboys one oyster one shrimp. After returning home I found not one not two not three but five shrimp were fried with the shell still on when I called I was treated poorly like I had some hidden agenda. I received a call back by another woman who was much kinder but upon driving all the way back I was treated like an imbosol even though I brought in the peeling from the shrimp. I was raised in lower St. Bernard parish and I can assure you that I have never experienced this. I will not be back here nor would I recommend this establishment to anyone else! read more

Anyone looking for some of the freshest local seafood in town, Kenny's is the place! Young ladys working the counter are more than helpful and the gentlemen in the back seem to be moving as fast as they can because my wait time is never outrageous and the food is never a let down. Buy Local! read more

Traveling along the coast and searching for local cuisine we found Kenneys. You stand in line and order your food and they bring it out. All the food was amazing! You could also buy seafood and take it home to cook it yourself! The sides were so good I wish I had just ordered giant portions of those and called it a day! We ordered fried shrimp, catfish, oysters, with sides of gumbo and jambalaya, corn and potatoes. All had tons of cajon spicy flavor!! I'd definitely come back here if I lived here! read more

I've made it a weekend tradition to get fresh crawfish and fried pickles. this place is always SUPER BUSY BECAUSE THE FOOD IS EXCELLENT. Also, their fresh fish market is the only one I know of its quality in Slidell. read more

Don't come in anywhere near closing time because the beers will be warm, food will be cold, and service will be shitty. We ordered the oyster plate with jambalaya and crab corn bisque and a soft shell crab plate with boudin balls and crab corn bisque. The only thing warm were the oysters, crab corn bisque and beer. Really disappointed, as this was recommended by many! read more

Great place for a shrimp platter, sides are fantastic! I recommend the corn and crab bisque or the gumbo!

We were driving from New Orleans to Biloxi and stopped here for lunch, after checking Yelp for a local seafood. We had a soft shell crab po'boy, a cup of gumbo and a tuna steak salad. All were good but not exceptional. The tuna was very fresh, cooked medium and was a large portion served over a simple iceberg lettuce salad. The po'boy was one crab served on French bread with mayo, lettuce, tomatos and pickles. There was way too much bread for the small crab. However the crab was tasty. The gumbo was too salty for my taste and not a bit spicy. It had quite a few small shrimp and two very small pieces of sausage with white rice. Not the best I've had. Overall was a bit above average and merits a stop if you're in the area. read more

Excellent every time. I take the trip and stock up. Finest quality. Fish and plates all the best of the South.

Kenney Seafood is the reason I bring a cooler with me on road trips to Louisiana. Before I get back on the highway for home, I make sure to stop in for groceries of the sea. Kenney's has all of the Louisiana essentials: soft shell crabs, gumbo crabs, crabmeat, gulf shrimp, crawfish tails, redfish, and more. Their seafood is fresh, local and well-priced too. On my last trip I bought enough to fill my Coleman. Then I drove around to the side of the building and an employee met me at the trunk of my car with my purchases. He proceeded to pack my cooler with seafood and ice and then taped the lid shut to create an airtight seal. Everything was still cold and in excellent condition when I made it home 6+ hours later. For high-quality seafood and top notch customer service look no further than Kenney Seafood! read more

My husband and I were debating on where to go for a great poboy and in the end we were definitely not happy we chose Kenney's over Keith's. My "softshell crab" poboy had a tiny and mushy crab that only fit half of my 6" poboy and it was supposed to be dressed but it barely had anything on it and tons of mayo. Nothing like what I've seen in photos on here. I wish I would have noticed before we took it to go. My husband got the fried fish platter which was served with cold mushy fries. Big disappointment for $25. We won't be going again. My one star is for the gumbo, it was the one thing that was delicious. read more

Kenney's seafood is the BEST place in Slidell to get the FRESHEST Seafood! They have the best Fresh Oysters, Shrimps, Crabs, Crawfish (Live and Boiled) and fresh fish! (Of course, you want to get those items during the appropriate seasons.) They also have the best stuffed artichoke too! The service is friendly and fast and the prices are reasonable - the key is to buy in the right seasons, etc.. They also pack it neatly for you. If you want to bring your seafood goodies on a plane (which we have have done several times to CA), just let them know and they can help by packing it in approved packaging for a charge. They also sell a variety of Cajun seasonings, cocktail sauces, fresh lobsters, sodas, and Louisiana mixes (gumbo, jambalaya, etc...) Definitely a great place to get your Louisiana seafood! Can't wait for Crawfish season!! =) read more
