    Fish, shrimp, fries, and slaw The fish and hushpuppies are hidden under the fries
    Judy M.

    At 2:30 on a Monday we were the only people eating in. There were 2 others waiting on to go orders. The young ladies at the counter taking your order were friendly and helpful to us first timers. On Yelp there are several reviews stating they had catfish here but guess what? They've NEVER sold catfish per the young lady the only fish they have ever had is Pollock and it is delicious! I got the pick 3, with one pc fish and dbl shrimp which turned out to be 8 large PERFECTLY cooked shrimp that were absolutely scrumptious! Served with coleslaw meh I'm not a slaw fan, 3 hushpuppies very good and the BEST FRIES yum! Very clean even the restrooms with 3 tvs but only 2 were on. My friend got the whole fried shrimp po boy with fries and drink. He had so many shrimps on his Sammie that he had a meal with what fell out! Those were smaller shrimp but very tasty and cooked to perfection. We were happy that the place we were going to eat that is next door is closed on Mondays so that we could try Louisiana Shack. We definitely will be adding to our regular rotation.

    The staff here really knows what they're doing! I ordered the full shrimp po' boy along with the boudin balls, and both were immaculate. Unlike other places that fill their sandwiches with just bread and lettuce, this one was packed full of shrimp! The boudin balls offered a unique taste for me, and they were bursting with flavor! This spot seems like it could be a nice vibe after work or on the weekends with family! They do serve cold beer as well. Nice to have good spots like this around.

    I've been wanting to try this place for awhile but I don't love boils. Saw they have a shrimp bowl with noodles, broccoli, potatoes, and corn and they have a creamy garlic butter sauce instead of the spicy red sauce. 12/10! It was so good and the portion was huge. The container is about the size of my head. My husband got the shrimp po boy meal, comes with fries and hush puppies. He got a half portion and it was a large size for only half a sandwich.

    The food was EXCELLENT and priced really well for what you get. Plenty of parking. Clean restaurant. Polite, efficient staff. Nice bathrooms.

    Crawfish

    I always order from them bc their crawifish is so good and they have live crawfish when it's in season. I ordered today on DoorDash and I just thought this was so cute. I don't even think they have the option to order live right now but just the thought of writing it was so sweet. If you're in the area you have to try their crawfish.

    I ordered via Uber Eats and I enjoyed my food at home. It was packaged well. The food was still pretty warm when it arrived and tasted fresh. I got the shrimp box with garlic butter seasoning. I wasn't sure about the spice, so I selected 1 out 3; I'll definitely try 2 next time because 1 isn't spicy at all. Overall, good value for the price and a good find on Uber Eats.

    I been eating at this restaurant for years. The staff and the food is good. I never had a bad experience. You definitely get what you pay for. I'm sitting here now trying to decide am I going to drive from the city to Lawrenceville just to eat Louisiana Shack.

    Food: okay for the price. I would focus more so on the fried options rather than the seafood boil. The boil is alright and you can find better elsewhere. Service: NICE WORKERS. They gave good recs. This is sort of self service-ish. You order up front. Then they bring the food to you. Ambiance: it's alright. Tables and bathroom look clean.

    The seafood box was amazing and perfectly spicy! I had to take a few spoons of the broth as a soup, really good.

The host said it was to celebrate the spring season since they did a apres ski theme during the winter. So festive. Okay so boom, we came here on a whim since we were going to a concert in the area later that evening. Surprisingly it wasn't busy for a Saturday which I expected it to be. Unfortunately though they had upcoming reservations so we weren't able to sit in the main room. We sat in their second dining room which was off to the side but still decorated. Our service was still good and the waiter was very attentive. For apps, we got the She Crab soup. I would've preferred for the crab meat to be sprinkled on top vs. in the soup but nonetheless it was still delicious. Super fresh!! Omg. I even contemplated on switching my entree to the stuffed grouper to get some more crab meat. I ended up getting the Shrimp scampi which was a great choice. And let me tell you, they did not disappoint with the shrimp. 6 jumbo pieces. Omg. The entree was done pretty well and it was just the right portion size. If we had more time, I would've ordered their toffee bread pudding or the honey crème brulee but that's all the more reason to come back. Oh and order the It was all a dream cocktail. It tastes like vanilla. Done to perfection.

The food was good and most of the meals served had a large amount of food. We were a bit disappointed with the amount of food on the Snapper plate we ordered. It was a $50 meal and other meals on the table had twice as much food and those were half the price. The cake was brought out at the end of our meal with clean plates and forks. We will be back to try other meals on the menu, as it was hard to decide today.

    I'm usually super excited to go to Pappadeaux. Their parking lot is pretty nice-sized, so parking…read moreshould not be an issue. Our server was pleasant. I attempted to order the crab and spinach dip with the garlic bread like I typically do at other locations, and my server told me if I were to order it with the garlic bread, it would be an additional charge and I would only get two. I was shocked. I've ordered that and other locations, and that was my first time hearing that I would be charged extra to swap out the bread and then on top of that only receive two pieces. I ordered the Texas redfish pontchartrain with mashed potatoes. I asked if I could add cheese, and I was told yes; however, when it came, there was no cheese, and our server took so long to return, I didn't even bother. In addition, by that time I was already turned off with the bland fish that had several bones, minimal sauce, and overcooked shrimp. I was extremely displeased. I wish I would have just stuck with a fried dish, such as the chicken tenders and shrimp. That would be a safer choice. Both the fried shrimp and chicken tenders were pretty good, but know that they have a kick. The brownie dessert was pretty good. It was actually the highlight of the evening after a disappointing meal. I will never return to this location.

I will say the crawfish prices are most worth it especially when they have the $10/lbs deals on Tuesdays and Wednesdays! Add ons for corn, potatoes, and sausages are reasonable prices and they do not skimp out ok the sauce! I've tried the cajun fries and the garlic noodle! The garlic noodles are okay they're more dry and have whole garlic in it instead of minced. But the fries remind me of steak and shake skinny fries! The service is great.

However, I'm a biiiig fan of fried oysters, and theirs were good--that's what brought me back. I stopped by recently for a quick lunch and ordered the fried oysters, popcorn shrimp and Cajun fries with a side of Kickin sauce. The food came out quickly and tasted good overall. My only note is that the oysters seemed a bit smaller this time around. Service was quick and attentive. The ambiance was quiet and relaxed since we went around 5 p.m. on a Thursday. I'd come back if I were in the area and craving it again, but I do wish they offered a fried seafood platter. A lot of the appetizers sound good, but ordering them individually is pricey.
