Best large crawfish that make your lips tingle! Loved the potatoes the corn is sweet will stop everytime we are in town read more

Used Shaver's to cater our Louisiana Themed event. We got so many compliments on all the food. Especially the shrimp and grits!

We've been getting our crawfish from Shavers for over 20 years and they are consistently on point with good prices, amazing crawfish and great service. The place is basically located in the corner of a parking lot, and where I come from that matters and brings the ambience and credibility up to the five star level. Thank you Shavers, you are indeed awesome! read more

The food is amazing! Always fresh & delicious! Great staff to help with all your needs

Shavers was my first true Cajun food experience as a New Englander. The grits, gumbo, ok-boys, boudin, meat pies, and beignets were delish. We catered and everything was delivered hot, neat, and on time. 100% recommend to all. read more

Boudin balls doughie. Cut up one catfish filet into 4 pieces and charged $2/piece. Each piece was smaller than the palm of my petite hand for reference. Crawfish was the only thing that saved this purchase. May go back for crawfish but would rather other places for catfish and boudin. read more

Got Shaver's to go this evening. Super upbeat and nice workers. We got a dozen fried fish with fries and hush puppies (#friedfood). The remoulade sauce was the best part! So so good. The fish was perfectly fried. Fries and hush puppies were just your basic sides...nothing special. In the end, I would choose Shaver's over its competitor (Shane's) any day if not only for the fact that the people who work there are the nicest bunch! read more

I really liked the menu and one of the reviews I read said the fried shrimp were the best. So decided to give them a call. I have to check before I go to a new place to be sure they do not add MSG to their food, as my body cannot tolerate that product. Sadly the person that answered the phone said the owner just told him that he uses it in everything they have. So I dare not buy their food. It is hard to believe though, that they use MSG in EVERYTHING. Even Chinese places that still use that dangerous product will tell you they have several things that they do not add MSG to. I do not know. Maybe the owner was just mouthing off, but whatever I cannot take the chance. People can and have died from this product. I worked in a poison control center and we had cases of people that had terrible reactions when eating food with MSG in it. Whatever, I felt the need to warn people just in case they cannot tolerate MSG, so that they will avoid getting sick or ending up in the hospital or worse. You would think Shavers would have some items free of this preservative/flavor enhancer, but apparently not. And there are so many places that just cook fresh and do not use the product. Be safe. And take care. read more

Always amazing food, quick and friendly service. Especially during crawfish season! Best crawfish!

This little place was recommended to me by a native for a quick and delicious bite to eat as I was passing through town. It doesn't look like much, but the food and the service were excellent! I ordered the shrimp basket. The. Shrimp. Were. HUGE. They were battered and fried to perfection. The basket was complimented with three hush puppies, more fries than I could eat, and enough coleslaw to say that I had a vegetable with my meal. They were a little shy on beverages on this particular evening, but there was a cold can of Dr Pepper located for me. Now, there is really no place to sit, not that I saw (it was dark outside), except for a picnic table under the canopy in the parking area. My meal was delivered there to me by the friendly staff and I enjoyed my dinner al fresco. My meal was served in a styrofoam clamshell complete with plastic utensils and condiment packets. I get the idea that most folks take their food to go, or order in a catered capacity, as the name suggests. Overall - great food, friendly staff. I will visit again next time I am out that way. read more

Got the fried shrimp and fries. It was . My wife tried the gumbo and it was so delicious. Most definitely will be back when I visit my son. They don't have nothin like this in Sacramento read more

Stopped here on our long drive from Florida back to Texas. This place is definitely worth the short detour. We had the brisket po'boy, fish po'boy and blackened shrimp wrap, all worth 5 stars! I highly recommend this place to anyone traveling through the Shreveport/Bossier area. read more

I thought the customer service was so nice, but their food tasted really over cooked. They are right across the street from Broadmoor Baptist. read more

Probably one of the most overlooked restaurants in Shreveport, because they don't have dine-in seating, it's all to-go orders. But some of the best fried catfish and shrimp in the area. Perfectly spiced. Poboys are good too. Sides are delicious. read more

This is a review of the boiled crawfish of season 2022. They would have received a higher rating except for the fact that they were too hot/peppery. The flavoring is good with the exception of the heat. My lips and fingers burned for hours after eating the crawfish. Many of the other menu offerings are appealing but for crawfish, I'll go elsewhere. Disappointed. read more

Shaver's was a very decent meal. We got the fried green tomato BLT and shrimp poboy with fries and gumbo. I wasn't the biggest fan of the fried green tomatoes, but everything else was good. The gumbo could have been seasoned a little bit more. Overall, I was happy with our meal and I would definitely eat there again! read more

Everything I've ever ordered from Shaver's has been great! Jambalaya, gumbo, broccoli rice casserole, potato casserole. Yum!

If you need enough cajun spiced fresh crawfish to tame a hungry army - you've come to the right place. Delicious!! And, the best, and I mean 'the best' Jambalaya I've ever had in my life. - wow!! read more

I really enjoyed the oyster po boy I got from this place. The oysters were fried to perfection and the sandwich fully dressed as I requested. The muffuletta was good too with the yummy potato chips. The crawfish were spicy IMHO. I still sucked down a couple pounds though. The service was fast and friendly. It's not a place you can eat at- it's strictly to go. But for a place that looks like a gas station with a car wash, I was highly impressed. FYI,.... what I thought was a car wash is actually a building where they boil the crawfish- hahaha. read more

Drive up, get your crawdads and sit down at the picnic tables out front.... the Crawfish were best I've ever had.... I like them so much that I had to buy two big bags of the seasoning so I can make them myself... Or at least attempted to make them myself.... if you like the Mudbugs and you're in Shreveport Louisiana you have got to go to Shaver's! They cater too! read more

This place is amazing my favorite place in bossier city. I come every year for my birthday since it falls in crawfish season. This place started small and grew and still kept the charm I loved so much. The only change they made that I didn't like is the mandatory minimum on crawfish. I'm one person and I don't need 3 lbs. That is the reason I started going to this restaurant and the taste and quality kept me coming back. This year I didn't get any crawfish. Other than that it's a 5 star experience but I need a place with no minimum so I'm not sure if I'll be back. read more

Went to mudbug madness and had some of their crawfish, was a huge disappointment they were super tiny and rubbery. It was way to over cooked and most of them you couldn't eat. I advise to stay away from that place they are not good. read more

What a disappointment! My son and I got 12 pounds of crawfish earlier today and brought them home to eat, only 5 minutes away. I can almost understand the small size but for a restaurant that is suppose to specialize in crawfish these were terrible. The tails were sticking the the shell in 95% of the crawfish. You had to fight to get them out of the shell. I can assure you and I would advise anyone wanting good crawfish to find another location that cooks them. I did have some amazing crawfish last night but that is another review. I'm not trying to promote someone else but state the facts that resulted in me throwing away several pounds of crawfish out of frustration. read more

Ordered 60 pounds of crawfish with potatoes, corn and sausage. 3.46 pound for cooked. Crawfish were seasoned perfect but the majority were small. Potatoes were cooked separately and had no seasoning. People there are awesome and very good to deal with. Size could be a little due to late in the season. read more

Shaver's crawfish catered the Chimp Haven "Spring Fling" event today, and made a believer out of me. Great QUALITY crawfish, cooked fresh, by VERY friendly and helpful staff. Their flavor is great, and the product they turned out was top notch. A real crowd pleaser. Well done Shaver's crew, great food. I'll be coming to see you again soon! read more

Maybe I caught them on an off-day, as my best friend had been here before and said the crawfish was amazing, but I was not impressed. The prices were fair for the beginning of crawfish season in March (around $5/lb) and they put it and corn and potatoes (if you order them) in grocery bags for you to take home with you. I wanted to like this place. I liked the idea of taking my crawfish with me and enjoying them in the privacy of my own home, but they were bland at best. Bland crawfish in Louisiana is just wrong. They weren't very juicy, either. I will definitely skip this place next time I go to Louisiana. read more

5 stars damn it! Anything less is blasphemy. Loved the people. Second best crawfish I've ever had. About a centimeter away from first.

They catered our wedding and did a fantastic job. We had a brunch and they delivered as requested! A crawfish benedict, fruit selections, mimosas, staff rocked! I would recommend them for any occasion! read more

The best crawfish in northern Louisiana! I've ate my share of crawfish in Lafayette area and it's really good down there, but man I feel like I'm back home eating here! read more

Just had 4 pounds. They were on the small side but I like them like this. $6.49 per pound, perfect amount of spice, not salty, very juicy. Best I've had in a while. read more

Every time I go into Shaver's everyone is happy and friendly. The food is always great. Would definately recommend.

Favorite place in town to get crawfish. I've been going here since before I could walk, when it was a gas station. The crawfish are always fresh and delicious. As long as Shaver's is around, they will have my business every crawfish season. read more
