    Very good flavorful crawfish...I enjoyed 5lbs by myself. Also the mango ice tea is very good. I met the owners and they are very nice , humble ppl. Very good food and service.

    Mo City House Sauce Jumbo Crawfish

    Absolutely incredible crawfish, fried rice, and noodles. I drive over 35 mins to come here and have been coming here for years, because the flavor is just THAT special. The jumbos are huge and so worth it every time. That Mo City House Sauce needs to come in a bottle so I can take it home! Outside of the food, the owner and staff have always been so friendly, helpful, and attentive. There really isn't a better place to get crawfish!

    I just got a couple pounds to sample.

    They still have live crawfish and jumbo sizes!!! Got some crawfish and crab to satisfy my craving. Delicious and will come back. BYOB if you eat there.

    Decided to try this place after all of the hype that I seen on Facebook in this crawfish group that I am in. We came on Saturday around noon and by that time, it was just us and another couple; however, by the time we were leaving, it was getting pretty crowded. We opted for the crawfish, gumbo, chicken wings and shrimp roll. While the owner was very friendly, service was lacking. I understand that they were short in staff as a child took our order and brought us our food. The crawfish was just ok, everything was just ok. What turned my stomach and had me ready to go, was the bathroom. It was the most horrible disgusting bathroom I've ever seen and literally turned my stomach. I came for the hype and sadly won't be returning.

    Food was excellent! Family owned & their service is top notch. Ambiance is peaceful, tons of fish aquariums.

    $40 for 5-lbs of crawfish is a great deal at Mo City Crawfish. I also tried their Spicy seafood noodle soup and it was delicious. Support this local family owned business who takes extra care to provide excellent service.

    Just stopped by today for crawfish. Flavor was on point and the size was medium to large. Some other places have very small crawfish right now, so I was impressed. Plus, it's a family owned business so I appreciate that hustle. Highly recommended. And its BYOB baybeeee

    3 stars for the food but I'll round it up to a 4 because the service was pretty good & accommodating as well. I wanted to check this place out since I've seen it on Facebook numerous of times & since they're doing the 5 pounds for $25, you know I had to be there. Here are a few things we've ordered. * 5 pounds of the House sauce (regular) & 5 pounds of the house sauce (spicy)- Both had good flavor, very lemony. The spicy one wasn't that spicy & it was a bit salty. The sizes were medium/large to large & there was a few that were lobster size as well. While I was impressed on the size of the crawfish(s). Some of them were overcooked & I think they need to do a better job on cleaning it as well. 3/5 * Lemon pepper wings- a bit salty but they were fresh & right out of the fryer. I loved the crispness on the outside. 4/5 * Tamarind wings- while it was hot & right out of the fryer. I didn't like the taste of it, the sauce was off putting & just tasted like some weird tasting ketchup but more sweet. 2/5 * Whole Peking duck- definitely not worth it, the duck was overcooked, dry & chewy. The bread was the only thing that was edible. 1/5 Overall, it was an acceptable experience, I wouldn't go out of my way to drive here but I will give them another go when I'm around the area. Tip: $5 for BYOB.

    Definitely listen to the crawfish community when they say crawfish is done for the season...came hers because they were still promoting live crawfish and my mom loves pho. I needed a fix but once I kept eating it, I knew they weren't actually live. Please do not advertise live crawfish when you know your crawfish is frozen or dead...gross worst experience ever. We didn't touch the crawfish because they were bad. Good thing I got tamarind snow crab, I don't know who's bright idea it is to fry it. It's not blue crab you don't eat the entire shell. The meat was hard to get out of the she'll extremely disappointing for $28.99 Side garlic noodles, just for filler. Mom enjoyed her pho. End result $113 and $68 bill for dead crawfish. Lesson learned.

    Easy to find, plenty of parking. It seem to be a mom and pop shop so you don't see a lot of worker. Fish and chips (5/5) Crawfish (4/5) Grilled chicken noodles (3/5) Overall, a solid crawfish place in sugarland and I don't need to drive to Chinatown!

    I love me some crawfish! went for the 5 for $25 crawfish. I just wanted to try them out and I am happy I did. Crawfish house special 5/5 Flavor is very good. It is savory and bursting with flavor, my favorite! Outside was coated with the flavor. I loved it! I love the deal they have with crawfish costing everywhere about $8-10. This definitely is some bang for your buck. You don't have to compromise on the flavor either. Fried platter 4/5 Pretty decent platter. Nothing too unique. Lemon pepper wings 4/5 Pretty good sized wings. Fried to a good crisp. The seasoning on here could be more lemony, but overall still tasty. Baby brisket pho 4/5 Good sized pho for baby. It's a sweeter side broth. Good amount of noodles and meats for my baby.

    A soror recommended this place since I'm all in love with crawfish and it loves me back. I went after work starving like Marvin. I ordered my fiud to go, 4 pounds of crawfish and a appetizer of crab rangoons. Now the crawfish were a good size but I really think I got 3 pounds instead of 4. The medium spice was on point and they were a nice size. What gave you 3 stars was the nerve to serve me burnt crab rangoons like you knew they were burnt but thought I wasn't gonna see it. The taste wasn't right! So mad.....so hurt!

    Mo City Crawfish is my husband's new favorite spot for crawfish. They have a good deal on the regular and jumbo crawfish. I believe it was 45 for 5 lbs of jumbo. The restaurant has a few fish tanks and tv's to entertain. The service was good and quick. As soon as we entered we were greeted and sat by the owner and received menus quickly. The ambiance isn't fancy just a good spot for food. We ordered the kids fish and fries which my son loved. I loved my crab but it was a little pricy...I think it was 17 a cluster. The seasoning was A+. The corn and potatoes were an extra charge..but we're good. I know I'll be back because my husband loves it BUT paying over 40 dollars for crab and corn and potatoes was a bit much...not a deal there. I remember those 17.99 days a couple years back...maybe they will have a crab sale on my next visit. Overall... food is super good and will be back...crossing my fingers for a crab sale too

I've visited twice for lunch, and while both experiences were solid, my first visit stood out just a bit more in terms of flavor.

Our server was attentive and seemed to anticipate our needs without being overbearing. They offer a variety of seafood combinations at reasonable prices, making it easy to customize your meal. I added broccoli to my boil, which was a nice touch. I ordered the house sauce with a "spicy" level, but it didn't really bring any heat. Portion sizes are generous. Even though I can usually finish my boil, it's definitely enough to have leftovers. Overall, it's a dependable spot for a satisfying crawfish boil.
