    Outrageous meal bill
    Dustin C.

    I went there yesterday to celebrate my birthday and it was the worst experience I ever had, I think because we are not white they even charge for the sauce that makes the food taste better is like they wanted to make sure we don't come back, it was only 3 adults and the charge $209 when I don't think is was worth it at all...I could get way more food with better taste at lotus in veterans memorial and west rd for less than $30, they will not see me at this place again in my life and that's a fact

    Crawfish + shrimp

    Decided to try on a whim and it didn't disappoint. Lots of room, friendly and responsive staff - wait time wasn't too long even though they were pretty busy.

    Big 'ole crawfish!

    I do not have enough great words to describe the crawfish experience at Mud Bugs in splendora. Our server, blonde Paige, was outstanding, polite, and very attentive. Vanessa, the manager, stopped by to chat with us. Both ladies were so professional. We got the Sunday special. $65 for 10lbs with two corn, and two sausage. We ordered extra sides plus sausage. We chose 5 lbs of Louisiana seasoning and 5 lbs of Texas spicy. I'm not a fan of the Texas dusting but these crawfish have changed my mind entirely. Both were flavorful and spicy. Make my lips burn a little, but not so hot my nose is running, kind of good. Brushes in the sink to clean your hands and nails. Huge bonus! Size was crazy! Flavor 10/10 Easy to peel No dead or limp ones. We did have a few that were heads or claws only.

    This place is awesome! The quality and variety is exceptional and they give you the opportunity to choose your spice level. Service and cleanliness is superb. They offer indoor, covered patio and outdoor open patio.

    My wife and I are part of a club of older adults in Kingwood and once a month we meet up for purely…read moresocial reasons to enjoy a lunch out together. We started doing this when the pandemic was winding down as a way to get out with friends since we could not previously and also support our local restaurants. Each month we pick a different place or one we might not have been to in a while. We had never tried Petra, I had driven by it many times in the past and was curious as to how it was inside. Since I got to pick this month, I picked Cafe Petra and am glad I did! My wife and I were the first to arrive and when we told them we would be eating with 7 others from our club they quickly pulled some tables together. Our young server was very good, she took drink orders and delivered them to the right customers very quickly. After a bit of socializing we placed our orders and it wasn't very long and food was coming to our table. I had the Chicken Shawarma and Gyro Combo plate and it was a huge serving that also started with a nice salad. Others in our group had gyro sandwiches, salads and even baclava. My wife loved the French fries that are so crisp. The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated with Mediterranean decor, there is a big screen at one end with scenes from Greece and other parts of the region. As I said, service was very good and the servings were large enough that several of our group took home to-go boxes. We will go back in the future.

    The ambiance is nice and pretty. We were cosy and comfortable on the great benches along the wall…read more The service is great. They say their name and ask what you would like to drink and explain different drinks if you have questions. The food is very delicious and plentiful. We always take home yummy leftovers. Haven't tried the desserts yet. Always too full after eating most of my Gyro. They are so delicious and fixed to perfection. Will have try the desserts soon though. The staff is very attentive and looking to help in any way. They're quick with refills on sodas and tea also. Please try them soon. You will not regret it! After we went the first time we've been going weekly because the food and service is so delicious and satisfying.

As we walked in, we were immediately greeted by Eric and seated. He sat us in a private cozy nook but we asked to move to the booths with tv viewing access. Eric took the time to explain the menu and offered his suggestions. He greeted and checked on everyone. As he spoke to people, he would thank them for coming back and converse as if he was speaking to old friends. The customer service was superb. My husband ordered a michelada with Michelob Ultra. He said it was a few degrees shy of having ice in it, who doesn't love a cold beer! For dinner we ordered the gumbo with sausage, red beans and rice, and the twin lobster rolls. The gumbo had a dark roux. It was decent but the spice level was a bit much for me. After about four bites, my husband took over. He enjoyed it. Next was the red beans and rice with sausage. The flavor was good. My only complaint was the sausage pieces were too big for one bite. Lastly was the twin lobster rolls with Cajun fries. The fries were crispy and I'd compare them to Charlie's. The roll had generous portions of delicious lobster. We chose a hot roll but they do serve it cold if you prefer. The basket is served with a 2 oz helping of melted butter for you to drizzle on your rolls. The flat top rolls were buttery, soft, and grilled to perfection. Overall, we enjoyed them but they were missing just a touch of something, maybe a spice, I can't pinpoint it. I would definitely get them again though! The food was all hot and fresh. I overheard Eric telling another customer they don't have heat lamps and everything is brought out as soon as it comes off the stove. The location is in the center of booming shopping centers. This is a great lunch or dinner spot that welcomes casual family friendly dining. I'm glad we returned, we will be back.

There is also a boat dock to pull up to get your beer or grub fix. I saw a few video games and air hockey for the kids as well. We came here for a lunch and a few brews. I am IPA guy but the day we came, there were none on the menu, so I got a Santa's Cookie's stout to start which was pretty good. I also got a San Jacinto Warrior which they call a "Texican" style, and it was ok. For lunch I got a Paradise Burger that come with Sidewinder fries. The Paradise burger is a tri-tip beef patty w/ grilled pineapple, grilled onions, grilled jalapenos, and provolone cheese. It comes with a Korean sauce, but I got it without. The patty was a little thicker than i usually like, but the burger was really good. The sidewinder fries are basically curly steak fries. Service was a little slow, the beer was decent ( Iwish they had IPA's when I went so I could have tried more) but overall, it was a solid place.
