Crab legs, fried scallops
LaKeitha H.

If you're looking for a quick seafood takeout spot, this is it! Great flavor! Never disappointed! Friendly service!

Eric T.

This place is a bit underrated when it comes to their seafood. Been ordering from here for years, so this is a very late review. For starters the place is really small and it's only meant for take out orders. You can't really dine in here as seating is really limited. Interior is really basic and might turn some people off but basic isn't necessarily a bad thing when what comes out of the kitchen is far above basic. They are most known for their crawfish and it's not one those places that give you tiny ones, these are pretty big. The crawfish here is one of the best in the state. It's Cajun style which means it's spicy. They have other options too like fried fish and crab legs. You pay by the point for most of the options. Posted a few pics of how they price. For the most part I would consider this place a lot more affordable if you compare to other seafood places. For the quality you get it's a really good deal. Overall, this place isn't fancy or anything but for the what you get in terms of quality, portions, freshness of the seafood it's one of the best.

Lawrenceville Seafood is one of my favorite places for crawfish and seafood. Vietnamese-owned. This place has been around for years. Located in a little strip mall off of Cruse Rd, this spot gets packed. Though there are a couple of tables and chairs for dine in, majority of the people that come through order to-go / pick-up. We ordered 5 lbs of crawfish, 3 lbs of snow crab legs, and a fried shrimp platter. Crawfish were huge. Snow crab legs were well seasoned. Fried shrimp platter was piping hot and delicious! Customer service is wonderful; the establishment is well-kept and clean. Restrooms located in the back. Pricing is listed on whiteboards in the shop. Always a pleasure to support local businesses such as these.

1 lb of crawfish.

This place has really cheap seafood. Well, it's relatively cheaper compared to a few other places in the area. At first glance, yes, judge all you want since this is technically a fish market where you go and grab your fresh seafood, but there are two large tables with chairs provided for you to sit and enjoy your meal. Certain things are sold by the pound while others are by the pack or box. Yes, I did write "pack" and "box." lol. Well, that's what the signs read... Anyway, when I visited here with my friends, I choose the 1 lb of crawfish ($5.99 per lb). They were huge--see my pics! Since these guys were so large, I think 2 lbs would be a better option. The guys were pretty content with 2 lbs of crawfish and some sides... You can also create your own meal by ordering sides since you everything is purchased separately. Most of the sides are like $1 so it's not at all bad. Sides range from corn on the cob, fries, hush puppies, potato bites/chunks, etc. They also sell bottled and canned drinks along with they typical bottled water. Overall, this is not a great place for atmosphere so don't go here with your date. lol. Go here if you want fresh and cheap seafood! And the owners are Viet so there's a Viet channel playing in the background...

Med shrimp steamed/spicy..corn,potatoe

Fresh seafood)) When I come to Lawrenceville Seafood I'm coming to eat Caloriesss, I'm talking FRIED, BUTTERY, SPICY FOOD and its always done right. The fish is fried in a Louisiana seasoned cornmeal. My favorites are GROUPER, Tilapia, also steamed Cajun spicy shrimp... I have had crablegs steamed to go as well as Crawfish. You can't go wrong if you love seafood. The menu is simple with fries, hushpupies and corn on the Cobb, redskin potatoes are the sides.I Wish they had a side salad (Hint) I see there are FROG legs on the menu, I hear it taste like chicken strips but I'll pass. :) ...

1/2 lb. medium shrimp spicy.

Hole in the wall of a place that sells seafood made to order. It's actually pretty huge inside, but it only has two tables setup with limited seating I'm assuming most people get their orders to go. Everything is priced per pound. There are also so platter options available with sides. For shrimp, you have the option of boiled or fried. For fish, they only do it fried. You can also get it regular or spicy. Limited options, but it makes ordering pretty easy. I got 1/2 lb. of shrimp plus ~1 lb. of fish for roughly $16. Both the shrimp and fish that I ordered were good. Considering the price point, it was extremely reasonable. The only negative note is that the place can do a better job on cleaning. Overall, considering the price and the setup, still a great place to go for some seafood on the cheap.

Shrimp, crawfish, corn and potatoes
Brenda T.

Steam some white rice immediately. My heart is with The Boiling Crab in Garden Grove, CA, but for now, I get my fix here. The owner has been in business for nine years. The fish market itself appears bare bones, but the servings are generous with spicy crawfish at $5.99/lb and $6.99 gets you a boiled shrimp dinner (15 shrimp) with one ear of corn and halved red potatoes in a buttery sauce. The crawfish are very large -- drizzle the spicy broth over steamed white rice - deliciously addictive! Don't overlook the juices and "fat" (or hepatopancreas) when you dig into the crawfish head - arguably the best part. This spot is ideal for takeout since there are only two 6 foot tables and the atmosphere isn't made for lingering. Now grab a can of Yeo's soybean drink from the fridge on your left and get your eat on.

Sooooooooo after trying "Boiling Crab" in California, it's tough to find a legit crawfish place that can replace that. However, this is as close to DELICIOUS as you can get. The crawfish here is LEGIT. It's spicy, flavorful, and got enough salt to make it a happy meal. The corn and potatoes are a nice touch. I'd rather fork out the $$$ for the potatoes though b/c I feel that it's more filling. Crawfish is reallllllly affordable. I haven't tried anything other than the crawfish, but it's safe to say I'll be back.

These have to be the biggest, baddest, spices bugs I have ever tried, sweet baby Jesus! !!

Great Scott! Largest crawfish I have ever tried, spicy and delicious. You have to try!! Ron

Dead fly on crab legs -__- seriously?
Aaron S.

Wow, just made an to go order & got home, I was so excited to try out this place JUST b/c my friend recommended to me. But damn seriously? Just took one bite and found freaking dead fly on crab leg...... don't wanna touch it or even want eat anymore. $75 worth of food just went down staring to trash can. Not coming back and well done you guys.

Best crawfish ever!
Sarah N.

Their crawfish are the best! It's not like the crawfish that you get from buffets. The flavor is on point! If you like spicy, this is the crawfish joint for you. I usually order big batches to take home, but dining in is also an option. They also sell other types of seafood, like shrimp and crab legs if you're interested in that too.

Crawfish

The prices way too much !! Then they cheat you on the food... I wouldn't recommend this place to nobody ... the crawfish taste good but for the price & how they cheat you on the amount you get it's a NO for me !! Almost $10 for 10 crawfish

Walking in that wonderful smell of fried fish hit me. I had to get 2pcs of whiting. Seasoned perfectly so delish.

See all

Do they take EBT?

Yes

I wanted to know is Lawrenceville Seafood open? I know many small businesses closed down but some open back up.

Yes it is. Just picked up a order. 2/8/21

What are the hours of this establishment and is it still open? I've been calling and no answer.

I posted a pic of the hours of operation. They are still open. Sometimes they don't open on time though lol. I usually give them an extra 30 mins after opening time before calling.
