    Daiquiri!!!
    Jamie L.

    It's been a minute but I made a return to Swamp Kingz and I'm here to let you know I was welcomed with open arms! Diamond is the perfect person to have a the cash register, greeting the people and providing top notch customer service. I love to see people who are naturals at their jobs that require a certain level of customer service. While deciding what I wanted to order, I already wanted to return again. She is extremely knowledgeable of the menu and daily specials. I love that. Wings Cajun rice boudin balls daiquiri Oh yes! All of the food was on point, along with the nice music playing in the background, giving the perfect evening vibe you need! You better get here!

    I forgot to mention that my husband ordered the King box

    Tried a new spot on Friday. You can smell the goodness from outside so you can imagine my excitement going in. They have a $4.99 a pound special so I ordered 5 pounds and a pound of shrimp. The crawfish were a nice size, good garlicky flavor, the heads were kinda too hard to bite and suck. Now the shrimp, I wish they threw them in the crawfish bowl instead of serving them in a platter in oily butter with very little garlic. The shrimp was good though just wish to have it in the bowl with the crawfish. The vibe was vibing with a lot of people however it was a lil warm in there. Service was 10/10. I'll be back again!

    This restaurant is setup like fast casual. Cuisine is Cajun seafood. You order you food and drink at the counter. You are given a number and once it's ready your food is brought to the table. I ordered spicy crab and shrimp seafood boil and it was indeed spicy. If you don't love spicy definitely do mild. I enjoyed my food. I would recommend this place for a casual environment. They're were also lots of TVs showing sports.

    The drink I had was awesome.

    Decided to go to my spot I was craving a turkey neck snow crabs and a daiquiri. My lord $50 bucks. WTH did I order. Don't know what I did with my receipt. So I ordered mild for everything. Sit at the bar enjoying watching the big screen tv's. There were a good amount of people in there no one acting crazy it was just so enjoyable. I received my food so got home started eating and I must say everything was fresh not too spicy I really enjoyed everything. The staff was very friendly and the service was pretty quick. I do recommend this spot. Thanks for a great dinner

    We were craving crawfish and this place was mentioned all over TikTok so we figured we would try it out. Their crawfish is normally $6.99 per pound but we came for their $5.99 special. We ordered 8lbs of crawfish, a combo platter, and a mango/pineapple slushy. It took about 25-30 minutes for everything to come out which is pretty long but totally worth it. The crawfish was flavorful. The combo was alright; the fish fillets were pretty small. The slushy tasted like any other slushy you would get at a tea shop. Place was clean. Customer service was 5/5. I would give this place a 4.5. I'd recommend coming here for crawfish.

    Happy to report my 2nd visit was just as yummy! Service was good, once again greeted as soon as we walked in and the guy working this time was great about telling us about all the deals. My dad ordered some fried rice(very yummy) and my sister got fried oysters. I'm not much of an oyster person but these I really enjoyed! Fries as one of their sides were nice and crispy. I myself got 4 pounds of crawfish this time. Did stick with mild again. And ahhhh sooo delicious! Happy to report that once again 1)didn't make me sick. 2)that all of them were cooked well. Only had 1 crawfish that was a little too grey so I only had to throw away one. This time I definitely got bigger crawfish, lots of them had a great amount of claw meat. I'll be back within a week or 2!

    Diamond gave 5 star service and working hard as the only one in the front. Made the initial experience wonderful. Can't wait for the food.

    DIAMOND AND CHRISTINA SERVICE WAS AMAZING AND OVER THE TOP I LOVED IT AND THE FOOD WAS AMAZING !!

    Yared customer service was amazing and helpful and I loved my food !! Always come for crawfish !!!!

    When it's crawfish season, getting bags of it is a must. We saw the promo video online and seen the line for people going in and got excited . We ordered 8 pounds and a turkey neck . Service was great. The crawfish were huge ! I just wish that the flavor was inside the crawfish more than just sitting at the bottom of the bag.

    (3) Boudin Balls

    We made the 45 minute drive during prime traffic to try this place out. Service was very good and the cashier at the counter had no problem answering any questions or repeating things. The crawfish was good! I would rate it a 4/5 if you like the saltier, more cajun style crawfish versus the sweeter flavors that come with viet-cajun style. Boudin balls were good, nice and crispy. Their daiquiris are nothing special very typical of other places (but the long island one is the best imo). Overall the ambiance was very casual with plenty of tv's and bar seating. The music was a vibe but a bit too loud to have conversation. I think this is a reliable place to try out especially for their 5.99/lb deal they have on certain days!

    If you're a seafood lover looking for bold flavors and Southern vibes, let me put you on to Swamp Kingz! We made the 20-minute drive, and let me just say it was absolutely worth it. From the jump, the atmosphere was laid-back and fun, and the menu had everything I love: fried seafood, daiquiris, fried rice, and of course, crawfish. Speaking of crawfish wow. We tried both the spicy and mild with garlic butter, and each one hit in its own way. The spicy had a real kick (like, real spicy!), and the garlic butter was rich and flavorful without overpowering the natural taste of the crawfish. They were cooked perfectly and served hot in a big metal bowl just the way I like it. Even better? Crawfish is only $5.99 per pound Monday through Thursday a deal you really can't beat. We also tried the whole wings (maybe 5 or 6, who's counting when they're that good?) crispy, juicy, and fried to perfection. Definitely worth adding to your plate. And listen... the fish & shrimp platter? Top tier. It comes with swai fish, shrimp, and fries hands down the best combo. Everything was seasoned just right and fresh. Shoutout to Jay behind the bar he was killing it and made some of the best Long Island Iced Teas we've had in a while. Strong, smooth, and perfectly mixed. The vibe was great, service was friendly, and the food was on point. Whether you're a crawfish veteran or just looking for a chill spot with flavor-packed eats, Swamp Kingz is where you need to be.

    My final bill

    The vibe was nice the staff was friendly & the food was pretty good although the previous reviews had me nervous to try! The Buffalo wings are hot. I really liked the tvs at the tables & My favorite thing of all were the daiquiris!

    Had some of the best spicy crawfish!!  bonus was the daiquiris !  Tony, kyia and Jay were the best here. :)
    Angelina A.

    Had some of the best spicy crawfish!! Can't forget about the daiquiris :) I will definitely be back .

Wouldn't let me change my order when the order had just got sent in and not paid for, I should've walked out then. All I wanted to do was take an eggroll and biscuit off but u can tell she was money hungry. She was very rude and just was rushing for the money. That instantly made my husband mad. Anyways not only was the lady, I think her name was Mama D rude she put the order in wrong. I was there at 3:50 ish so I was just in time for happy hour at 4, so I waited to order my drink. She didn't want me to order it to go for whatever problematic reason so I told her I didn't want it bc I knew I couldn't finish the margarita that quick. She told me my food was gone take wayyy longer so I said ok I'll have a drink while I wait. The food came out and I was like I knew that was gone happen. Didn't even take one sip. She had an attitude bc not she had to give me the to go cup. Mind u the cups aren't the same she filled it up half way and said it's on special like I shouldn't be questioning why it was half full. Still left her a tip bc I support Black Businesses. Order was still wrong. . Just rude for no reason. The shrimp were good. I ordered hot lemon pepper it was mediocre. She was also rude to the ppl that walked in telling them where to sit. Business minded ppl would've had it blocked off or something. Would not go back bc HOUSTON has good food all around and customer service is mandatory! Be humble!

Nice cozy place, perfect setting for fried chicken. I am sure they had other stuff, but that was the mission for this visit. Started with fried pickle spears, probably the best I have ever had, no joke. Perfect coating, taste and preparation. I like the spears vs the chips. Had the special which was to legs and two thighs for the price of the 3 pc dark. Beans and slaw. Ok, the chicken was great, moist, seasoned, very well cooked. I will go out of my way to go here for the chicken. Beans, canned with a little flavor added, nothing to brag about the slaw was pretty good. The fries on my friend's plate looked great. Perfect. We got here at about 1145, the place was busy. By 1215, it was packed, but they move people through and do a booming take out. Try it, you will like it. It satisfied my fried chicken desire and. Am set for a bit, but still want to go get more!!

I enjoyed their fried chicken, which for around $12, came with a thigh and leg, along with ample amounts of coleslaw and fried okra. Even I, as a voracious eater, could not finish all the sides. The chicken itself was beautifully fried in peanut oil, and truly one of the best, juiciest, fried chicken pieces I have ever had. This place is an example of simplicity at its finest. If you are in Houston and craving some down to earth fried chicken, Gus's is the place to go!

First, I noticed that the staff handling food behind the counter were not wearing gloves. Hygiene is important, especially when preparing and serving food, and it was concerning that no one appeared to be following proper food safety practices. At that time, the rotisserie was already being cleaned, which told me they had stopped preparing fresh chicken for the day. Instead, they were serving pre-cooked chicken kept in a warmer. As expected, this made the chicken dry and hard on the outside. I ordered the 1/2 dark meat chicken with yellow rice and Tequeños. However, I was given two small leg quarters and an extra piece of white meat--which I didn't ask for--all of which were extremely dry. The portion size has noticeably decreased as well. I was also very concerned to see them using spray cleaner near the food, which poses a risk of chemical contamination. On top of that, the Tequeños were extremely dark and tasted like they had been refried, nearly burnt. Adding to the poor experience, one of the girls behind the counter was playing around and massaging her coworkers while customers were being served. That level of unprofessional behavior is not something anyone wants to see while waiting for their food. I've always liked this place for its fresh rotisserie chicken, but it feels like DoDo's has started cutting corners on both food quality and cleanliness. Paying $19.52 for this meal just didn't feel worth it.
