    *DO NOT GET CRAWFISH!!!!!!* I was SO excited to try the crawfish as I've had their crack sauce at a friend's crawfish boil previously & absolutely loved it. Sad to say that the crawfish was DISGUSTING. It was extremely mushy, the meat was brown, and the claw meat was black. The seasoning/flavoring was good but the actual crawfish quality was the worst i have ever had. 0/10 recommend. Almost seems like they used frozen instead of live crawfish??? I will say, the shrimp was amazing.

    My first experience with this restaurant establishment. While visiting Houston I was determined to try. Service was friendly and the taste was flavorful. I ordered the fried lobster and rice for an addition price. Box with crab, corn, sausage and boiled shrimp. The lobster has a crunch profile that's worth visiting for. The medium heat was spicy and I think mild when I return. My brother opted for fried fish and shrimp, he stated the taste was a 9 out of 10. I would recommend to anyone to stop by and have your mouth profile on happiness.

    I've been wanting to try this place since my friend came back raving about their sauce. I'm not actually into a ton of crazy sauce on my boiled seafood... preferably I like mine steamed with drawn butter. I'm simple, so Kee that in mind. We ordered lots of things to try including the crab, shrimp, wings, and of course the seafood rice. The rice was my best choice bc everything was just ok. The lemon pepper spicy wings tasted sweet like bbq but were fresh and meaty. The seafood boil wasn't that impressive to me. My crab cluster was very tiny and overcooked making it difficult to access the meet, but my friend's crab looked fresh and was definitely 3 to 4 times larger than mine. The place stayed busy so I'm sure they're doing well. I don't have to stop by again when I'm back in Houston,

    Food is a 90 most of the time service is what you expect go there and see and ambiance changes with the time of the day.

    This was an update from last weekend order. So now I get home and open the box everything looked fresh with a few extra snow crabs. I must say they weren't the biggest I've had from there but they were good with a little spice. Everyone was professional and friendly. So Hammy thanks for making this a great experience.

    Fried lobster and hot box is the way to go. Loud pack not bad. You wait a bit since they cook fresh and the place can be packed. Plenty of parking lot at most of their location

    best food we ever had you guys come and check it out we Love the interior also Service

    A friend and I were craving snow crabs and chose this spot over LA Crawfish. We called in our order and asked for full crabs, but didn't check before leaving, big mistake. The crabs were barely worth it for the $40 we spent. We called and spoke to two managers who just said "sorry" and told us to bring the food back, which wasn't helpful since we were starving and tired after working overnight. The turkey neck was the only good part, that's why this is getting 4 stars. But charging the same price with lower quality? Not cool. We won't be back.

    I was visiting from Florida and I asked where was the seafood. LOTUS Seafood did not let me down. Great seafood and seasoning was perfect. And they have Turkey necks. Sopped the juice up with garlic Bread. I love it. Il be back Service was a 10. Very nice ppl. FLA-Shay

Wouldn't let me change my order when the order had just got sent in and not paid for, I should've walked out then. All I wanted to do was take an eggroll and biscuit off but u can tell she was money hungry. She was very rude and just was rushing for the money. That instantly made my husband mad. Anyways not only was the lady, I think her name was Mama D rude she put the order in wrong. I was there at 3:50 ish so I was just in time for happy hour at 4, so I waited to order my drink. She didn't want me to order it to go for whatever problematic reason so I told her I didn't want it bc I knew I couldn't finish the margarita that quick. She told me my food was gone take wayyy longer so I said ok I'll have a drink while I wait. The food came out and I was like I knew that was gone happen. Didn't even take one sip. She had an attitude bc not she had to give me the to go cup. Mind u the cups aren't the same she filled it up half way and said it's on special like I shouldn't be questioning why it was half full. Still left her a tip bc I support Black Businesses. Order was still wrong. . Just rude for no reason. The shrimp were good. I ordered hot lemon pepper it was mediocre. She was also rude to the ppl that walked in telling them where to sit. Business minded ppl would've had it blocked off or something. Would not go back bc HOUSTON has good food all around and customer service is mandatory! Be humble!

    I visited DoDo's Chicken on Wednesday, 6/11 around 4:45 PM, excited to get the chicken and sides…read morethat I usually love. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing for several reasons. First, I noticed that the staff handling food behind the counter were not wearing gloves. Hygiene is important, especially when preparing and serving food, and it was concerning that no one appeared to be following proper food safety practices. At that time, the rotisserie was already being cleaned, which told me they had stopped preparing fresh chicken for the day. Instead, they were serving pre-cooked chicken kept in a warmer. As expected, this made the chicken dry and hard on the outside. I ordered the 1/2 dark meat chicken with yellow rice and Tequeños. However, I was given two small leg quarters and an extra piece of white meat--which I didn't ask for--all of which were extremely dry. The portion size has noticeably decreased as well. I was also very concerned to see them using spray cleaner near the food, which poses a risk of chemical contamination. On top of that, the Tequeños were extremely dark and tasted like they had been refried, nearly burnt. Adding to the poor experience, one of the girls behind the counter was playing around and massaging her coworkers while customers were being served. That level of unprofessional behavior is not something anyone wants to see while waiting for their food. I've always liked this place for its fresh rotisserie chicken, but it feels like DoDo's has started cutting corners on both food quality and cleanliness. Paying $19.52 for this meal just didn't feel worth it.

    Terrible service and zero accountability. I placed an online order, but when I arrived, the staff…read morehad decided to close early and refused to fulfill it. Despite having my contact information, they provided no courtesy call or cancellation notice. To make matters worse, the employee was incredibly rude and disrespectful, telling me it "wasn't his problem" and that I had to come back the next day for a refund. Save your time and money--go somewhere that actually values its customers.
