    The front of the closed restaurant

    Really was excited to try it checked online to see if they were open took the drive because I heard great things and not only were they not open they looked closed but I know their not because my brother got food from here 2 days ago and bragged about it so it was just very annoying because the stigma with black businesses is that we open when we want too vs our hours of operation their signage says open 11am it's currently 2:53 pm I've tried calling and etc no answer so just disgruntling that indicates poor service out gate:

    Perhaps other folks have had better experiences with Mattie's fried fish than I did recently. The fish in my order, along with other items in the basket such as toast, fries, shrimp and hush puppies, were fried way too hard. Every item except the fries was not seasoned and was one step away from being inedible. I also received no lemon slices with my meal. The only thing that really saved this place was a family member's fish po boy, which apparently was good. I might try this place again, but with reservations.

    I really like this cat fish and fries basket I got at this festival! The catfish are crispy and the fries are crispy & flavorful the only thing is I wish they would have seasoned the catfish a little bit more. It was giving a more bready taste, but I still did like the flavor & the crunch. Just wish there was just a little bit more seasoning. But overall it was a good food experience!

    ALL I HAVE IS THREE LETTERS OMG The fish is so flavorful and crispy well seasoned. You must try it it's worth coming back to.

    Catfish and fries

    Whew, chile! I LOVE ME SOME CATFISH! But this here was next to the worst I've ever had. It didn't seem too fresh and as if it were frozen while already battered. 3 days later and that fish is still in my fridge. I do not waste good catfish. The burger was dry as hell. The end. I gave them 2 stars instead of 1 since they're black owned.

    I'm always down to try something new and also support a local small business and I am SOOO glad I stopped by. The guy who took our order and served us, I'm assuming the owner, literally blew me away. His catfish was so good! So impressed. He was super friendly and made everything to order. We will definitely be back for round two.

The etoufee was pretty good, though not my favorite. The filet was tender, perfectly cooked. Even the cocktails were delicious! Everything we tried was memorable, and the entire meal exceeded our expectations. I would absolutely return and highly recommend Eunice!

There's also parking in the front as well. For the Patrice of the daiquiri I didn't think I'd be getting a kiddie sized cup. My total was 26.25 and I added 1 dollar for a tip Overall..

Patio outside not covered, so when it's hot you have to try and hide near the sides with benches that are closer to the building for fake shade. Service- easy, order at the counter. No wait time.

    Nut allergy friendly: Pretty much no issues here!…read more Parking: There's some in the strip mall but definitely less than at the Bellaire location. Time to Appetizers: 20 Minutes Time to Crawfish: 25 Minutes It's a solid branch from the main location in Bellaire, but they're missing some things. For example, the Bellaire location has the new Viet-Cajun flavor of sauce that hasn't debuted here yet (though you can DIY a mix). (Review is for July 2026 if they've updated since then) We got here at 6:05PM and got seated with no issues. Ordered the following: Combo #1 with extra corn and potatoes (3.5/5): Crawfish isn't in season, so don't be surprised at my low rating. It's still great and flavorful all around. Garlic Noodles with Shrimp (4/5): Still incredibly rich and buttery and garlicy and great for a palate cleanser. I'd skip the shrimp; you get eight pieces for $10 extra and that's not really worth it. Crawfish Beignets (4.5/5): Still a fantastic appetizer. Comes out hot, crispy, buttery, and is a really indulgence. 1 lb. Little Neck Clams (4.5/5): I liked these more than the crawfish tbh. It really does depend on what's in season. Very easy to eat, very flavorful. Service was generally good but our server seemed slammed; it took a long time to get water refills and to place extra orders (we got a second order of beignets to-go). Market price for crawfish is high and they're not in season, so don't be afraid to ask. The Combo #1 in July 2026 was $22. Overall, I'll probably be back during crawfish season especially because it's more convenient for me than the Bellaire location, but the Bellaire location has it beat for general atmosphere after the remodeling and much better options for mixes there.

Inside it's a nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it. I ordered a house salad for $9 to start and the Pasta Rosa entree for another $28. The salad arrived first with a generous amount of romaine lettuce with diced tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots and chopped eggs on top. With my chosen ranch dressing it was a good tasting salad. The Pasta Rosa dish had sliced Parmesan strips on top of penne with shrimp, crawfish and sausage for the protein with mushrooms and a tomato cream sauce. This meal initially tricked me. My first impression was that while there was plenty of protein the taste of the tomato cream sauce was lacking some flavor. I expected more. However as I kept eating and getting beyond the top layer of the food the flavor increased significantly. I think that the proteins caused the sauce in the lower half of the dish to create more punch. This dish got better and better and I changed my mind. It turned out to be a very good tasting and filling meal. Finally the table service was very good too. P.S. I also tried part of another appetizer which was the bar b q shrimp for $16. They were tasty. I like Rouxpour and would return. My only negative is that their prices are a little on the high side in my opinion.

The Chargrilled Rockefeller? That's the one you call your mama about. Big, flavorful, perfect. And the deviled eggs... listen. I don't even like deviled eggs, but these?
