    Picked up to go order. Ordered egg rolls. They were OVER COOKED. Burned. Were not pleasant to taste.

    Soft shell crab was phenomenal!

    The food was great!! Service and timeliness of said service was top notch. Definitely plan to return.

    Gumbo and eggrolls.

    I stopped buy this past Tuesday, the food was not good, the gumbo was awful tasted like cumin-bo, some kind of Mexican concoction. The fried shrimp was also awful they had a weird taste like they were going bad. I will not be back.

    Fried Seafood Platter

    Outstanding fried seafood! I needed fresh gulf seafood while in the area, and this place did not disappoint. The platter is more food than it looks in the picture, and I subbed out the fries for a salad. Everything seemed fresh, and all was delicious!

    Pretty nice service. Good Cajun food. A friend thought it was on the salty side. I'm a fan of salty foods so I wouldn't know if it was or not. It had flavor to me. 3 Flounder and etoufee 3/5 Flounder was good. Etoufee was soso. But watery. Not as saucy as we like it. Gumbo 2/5 Light, tad bland. Too watery. Flavor was okay. Fried seafood platter 5/5 Fish was good. Super tasty batter. Lots of food to try. Everything was still tender. Tartar was good. Boudin something 5/5 Unique take on boudin. Tasted like dirty rice fried in both sides. Super flavorful, had a nice light crunch and soft inside. Played a good balance in texture. It maybe I'm just weird. Stuffed flounder 4/5 Has a good flavor and sauce on top but was a bit dry. Cesar salad 5/5 Solid salad. Dressing a bit salty but it's on the side so that's good.

    Sad little crawfish etouffee :(

    This place does good business! We got there at 5pm and had to wait a bit for a table. Fried alligator with onion strings - 5/5 Would order again. Alligator was tender and moist. Onion rings - 0/5 Terrible, thick pancake like batter and mushy onion. Never again. Jumbo shrimp cocktail - 3.5/5 Nothing wrong with it other than the word "jumbo" being misleading. Large shrimp at best. The cocktail glass dwarfed the shrimp. Chicken fried steak - Didn't try it but the consumer had no complaints! Crawfish etouffee - 1.5/5 Decent amount of crawfish, but too different in flavor from pretty much every other crawfish etouffee out there. The color made it look more like a curry. And it wasn't very warm. Not for me. Nobody at the table wanted to finish it. Sorry, etouffee. Fried shrimp/oysters/crawfish/etc. - 5/5 No complaints. Crispy and fresh. Hushpuppies - 0/5 Absolute trash. Please improve these flavorless, hard balls. Spicy boiled red potatoes - 5/5 My mouth was on fire in the best of ways. Italian cream cake - 4.5/5 The only thing that would make it better is more cream cheese in the frosting. It tasted more like buttercream. We had some hits and some misses but we'll be back to try new things and more of the good things! The staff was also very friendly and we loved our waitress!

    Stopped by and picked up a fish and fries for my mother and this is what I unveiled when we got home.

I apreciated Honore's having a few games for the kids to keep them busy while the adults eat and chat. Maybe a little corner of the patio should be dedicated for them so theyre not in the middle of other patrons. Just a thought. Come early and order. Happy Hour before it ended literally had the line to order out to patio! There is a drive up pick up location on the east side of the building but how you order ahead? Didn't see anything on the website... I ordered the poboy with catfish and fries. When I picked up the to go plate, I just knew somebody's order had been combined with mine because the bag was heavy! Turns out they give Humongous portions at Honore's. Only thing: Although, I didnt ask for tartar sauce, no ketchup or cocktail sauce with my to go order. Still the poboy wad fresh and filled from end to end with catfish. Fries were hot and fresh in the take out box and not too salty, so I had to enjoy a few before leaving. Most definetly you have to order the coveted boudin balls. I got a small pack of both the original and pepper jack since they were on sale for Happy Hour. They didn't disapppoint. They were slightly bigger than a golf ball and the gooey pepper jack cheese was a great compliment to the crunchy exterior. Topped with Remoulade or Ranch and I got pretty full just off Boudin balls. The miss for me is the frozen drinks- especially the frozen Hurricane slushy. Tasted like medicine, but about an hour later I did feel a little kick from the drink. My friend agreed but tried the blue flavor and stated it was better than the hurricane. We enjoyed our little meet up at Honore's so much, we lost track of time. Four hours of girl chat and good food happens that way. Thanks Honore's for making our evening!

    First I would love to say that the hospitality was great, everyone was kind including the…read morecustomers, which gave a comforting vibe especially because it was my first time eating here. The owner was right there on the line working hard with his employees and the ingredients were real and fresh. It took me such a long time to visit this restaurant because the concepts are not something you see often, after the eating the food it's like a spin on cajun, american comfort soul food with a modern day finish. I don't even speak like this, but after this fantastic meal I couldn't help but to let yall know it's worth a try. The first item I tried was the blackened fish jambalaya & it was really good & looked like it came straight out the pan! however i'm used to bland food so the kick from the seasoning took me back some. I then tried their punch and it was so good words can't even explain. Again packed with flavor , sweet and has a tang from what seems to be lemon. Fresh pineapples and strawberries were in the drink as well, I can honestly say it's one of the best 3 drinks i've ever had. If they sold them by the gallon i'd purchase it just to keep in the house. I even added some water to it when it was almost gone and it still tasted good! It mellowed out some of the sweetness, but not the flavor. I also got the Da Justo Sampler and at first it seemed like a lot and kind of overwhelming, but let me tell you it was so amazing. First of all the grilled cheese was exceptional, the best grilled cheese i've ever had. The wings were sweet and spicy and I didn't even need ranch for them, I thought it would ruin the flavor! & I'm a person who eats ranch with everythingg. The mac & cheese is the perfect example of what mac and cheese should be, the fries were okay though, I wish they were crispier but even with that it didn't stop nothing! Everything is still a 10/10. I went back and tried the Jambalaya a little later & again another 10/10, i've never had Jambalaya before so the flavors were so crazy , but I still found myself not able to put the fork down! The portions are very big from those two meals I got i was able to share with 3 other people and we all had nice portions ( i was not sharing that punch tho!). if your sick of your typical generic food options and want something out the box and worth the price or just want a cheat meal that's worth it, Krack Kitchen is your spot!

    Happened to be the area and thought this Cajun places sounded good when I was browsing through Yelp…read moreand it was SO GOOD! It's inside a gas station which wasn't too busy for a Friday night. You order at grill, but when they give you the receipt you have to pay the gas station attendant. Make sure you go back to the grill to show you paid for your meal. Now I will say it took 25 minutes to get our food but it was HOT and FRESH. We got the jambalaya and 10 chicken wings. The wings were crispy and juicy with a lot of seasoning. Everything inside the Jambayla was delicious from the shrimp, to the fish, to the sausages, etc etc. just all super flavorful in general. There are 4 small tables each with 2 seats which I appreciated cause I usually prefer to eat the food fresh rather than eating it in the car/bringing it home. Would definitely come back to try other dishes; but keep in mind that the location of the gas station is kinda not ideal. You'll know what I mean when you drive there. It's hard getting there/getting out. And again food takes a long time, so if you're looking for quick fast food this place is not it, but it is delicious

On this particular evening we stuck to the seafood and we were not disappointed. We came out on a Tuesday, and Pizza Hut, next door, was running a 5.99 deal and the place was bonkers. On a normal day, parking is not much of a problem and there's plenty of space, but on this day it was a little hectic. Don't expect that to be the usual. Walking in the restaurant was quiet, there were three tables being served at the time. We were immediately set and we had a lot of different menu options to go through. We had their normal menu, their feast and their weekly and daily specials. So many things looked good, so we took our time going over the menu. We ordered half a dozen raw oysters, and these were massive. They serve them with lemons and Sriracha. Excellent combination. 10 out of 10 would order again. The gal went with flounder fillets and crawfish etouffee over rice. The flounder was fried perfectly. The etouffee was fantastic. I had the redfish with crawfish etouffee and I loved my redfish and the etouffee was fantastic on my dish as well. 10 out of 10 would order the redfish again, same with the flounder. Overall this is a fantastic meal. We had a bill of $46 for two big plates and half a dozen oysters. Not a bad deal. They do have some pretty good deals on it. Some of their other specials and their larger boils and feast. And while we were there they also had 1199 lb crawfish rate. We'll have to come back for the Crawfish and see how they do. They also have events throughout the week and month at the restaurant. That might be worth checking out if you're in the area. Was very pleased with our meal and visit. Will definitely be back.
