    I called in an order for my niece since this is her favorite spot for seafood boils. I'd never been here before and hadn't even looked at the menu. While placing the order, I didn't catch the young lady's name, but she was sooo helpful. I ordered exactly what my niece likes, and when she told me the total, it was surprisingly inexpensive--so of course I grabbed a boil for myself too. We both got the mild Cajun shrimp seafood boil, and honestly, it was super good. From the phone call to the drive-thru, the customer service was on point. The process was quick, no long lines or waiting around, and I really loved that. Definitely a good first experience!

    Great staff and chill atmosphere maybe like 8 crawfish out of my 2lbs was dead and fishy but that's the risk I took trying some at the end of the season !! My watermelon slush was good with my byob in it and the blue crab gone hate to see me coming I added a egg and two potatoes the potato was my least fave I'm picky on my side my friend liked them

    Food was a 10/10 definitely going back soon. I got my food spicy lol and had tears running down my face .. the guy at the register warned me, but I didn't listen!

    Crawfish boiling pot!

    The customer service and food were superb! We had a large group of folks eating a variety from the menu - including no -seafood eaters. We all found something delicious to eat AND tried samples from eachother's plates. Fried broccoli!? More please! Even had a dietary restriction that they happily worked with. Great experience and will come again with new friends!

    The inside of this place is actually a lot cuter than I thought it would be (my bad for judging y'all's exterior). I am going to start out with the only two negatives I have. The inside and outside of the restaurant (and shopping area) smelled of sewage. I don't think it is their fault at all as the whole shopping center smelled of it, but it was bad. The second are those terrible stuffed crabs . Never again will I let them fool me with those. I love imitation crab, but this tasted like plastic. They also used margarine which also added to the plastic taste. It was gross and we tossed those (I feel cheated, but it's okay ). The shrimp poboy was delicious. It was loaded and the bread was fluffy. It was super good and we'd come back for more. The shrimp basket was also a win. I got the 6 piece, but they were big shrimp and they were generous with serving it with 3 sides! The portions were huuuuuuge here. The prices were suspiciously cheap. The food was great. The service was great. The smell was not bueno. When we're inside we saw they had a functioning drive thru, so I recommend trying that out. We will be back!

    My coworker brought me here and ever since I've been back 2 other times. I loveeee seafood boils! If you're a boil seafood lover like myself give this spot a try. I always get the bucket of snow crab, shrimp, mushrooms, sausages, and corn. I'm very particular on where I eat boil seafood. The flavor did not disappoint. Side note: if anyone have boil seafood recommendations shoot me a message. Place was clean and you get the plastic bib to go around your neck and the tool to crack your crab (can't think of the name of it at the moment). Only thing that took me was having to pay for a pair of gloves but it is 25 cents.

    I usually love this place. I craved it during my pregnancy & still crave it 8 months later . the only thing that truly sucks is how often they get my order wrong. I ordered 6 corns & 6 potatoes and they gave me 6 potatoes and 2 corn. extremely disappointed.

I actually drove an entire hour in bad weather just to try it and it was worth every single minute. From the first bite, the flavor was unforgettable. The seasoning is executed to perfection bold, buttery, Cajun-forward with the ideal balance of salt and spice. Rich, well layered, and deeply satisfying. The crawfish were easily some of the best I've ever had: generously sized, beautifully seasoned, and packed with flavor. While a few were smaller, they were still impressively meaty, which speaks to the overall quality and consistency. Every bite delivered that crave-worthy, finger licking goodness. We also ordered the shrimp and crawfish fried rice combo, and fried tilapia and it was phenomenal hands down one of the best fried rice dishes I've had in a long time. The flavors were bold and perfectly infused throughout. Just thinking about it again has my mouth watering. The service was exceptional friendly, efficient, and welcoming. The ambiance has a lively bar-style vibe with music always playing, and they even offer live music at times, which makes it a great spot to dine in. I'm already planning to come back to experience it in person. If a place is good enough to drive an hour through bad weather for, it's doing something right. Mike's Seafood is easily one of the best seafood spots in Houston, and I'll absolutely be back.

It came with crawfish fried rice and they did not skimp on the crawfish! It was very good. I also got a side of fried fish because I love a good crispy piece of fried catfish. That was delicious as well! Idk what they put in the mikes sauce but it was hittin! The staff was very friendly and helped me make decisions and talked me through the menu.

Everything was detailed and you can feel how passionate they are about the food. We started off with the Gumbo and Lobster Bisque. The gumbo has a nice roux and full of flavor with shrimp, rice, and other tasty bits. The lobster bisque was one of my favorites of the evening with a rich and creamy texture. 5/5 Following the soup, we had some of the freshest Prince Edward Island oysters in Houston. We didn't try the Gulf oysters in this visit but our neighbor said they were delicious and looked huge. Next we had a ribeye steak with pasta and broccoli as the side. The steak was cooked perfectly and didn't need any sauce but the in house sauce that came with the steak had so much umami flavor, made by Michael as well. Can't wait to come back and try some of the other items on our next visit! Thanks for the wonderful hospitality and experience from end to end.

We received oyster future recommendations to try like the one from Louisiana and the giant oyster from Seattle. Will be back.
