    1/2 LB Snow Crab
    Michari L.

    Went to Swamp Kings with a few friends and had a really good time. The vibe was on point -- the music was so good we were all singing along like it was a playlist made just for us. The food was solid too. I ordered the snow crab, and for about $20 a pound, the price was definitely reasonable. And let me tell you... the daiquiris were strong in the best way. Overall, it's a nice, laid-back spot to chill, eat, drink, and just enjoy the moment with good company. Definitely worth checking out.

    Daiquiri!!!

    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!

    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
    Amie N.

    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!

    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!

    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.

    This is my favorite crawfish spot ! Haven't had this flavor anywhere else I Love it doooooown ! I be here every week for sure vibes always be on point too

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

Feels good when an establishment takes pride in their customer's feedback and puts a plan into action. Honestly, part of me was hoping that last time was just a fluke or an off day. This time around, everything from the service to the food was great. We had a 12:30 Sunday reservation for two and opted to sit inside this time. We ordered the cast-iron cornbread, chargrilled oysters, and a cup of gumbo each to start. For entrées, I had the Gulf Fish, while my husband went with the crawfish Florentine. Everything came out beautifully timed, almost like a perfectly paced three-course meal, which obviously made the whole experience feel elevated and relaxed. Our waiter was knowledgeable, attentive, and on top of everything without being overbearing. I also tried the prickly pear aid (non-alcoholic), and it was super refreshing, definitely worth ordering if you like a little tartness to cleanse your palate. Overall, this visit felt like a completely different experience than last time. It delivered the elevated experience a place like Eunice promises and what I was used to originally.

Unfortunately, the overall dining experience was disappointing due to both the service and the food quality. Our server was very slow throughout the evening. After ordering cocktails, it took approximately 20 minutes for them to arrive. We then ordered our meals... I had the burger and fries, while my girlfriend ordered the shrimp and grits. Both dishes were noticeably over salted. After finishing our meals, we waited an additional 15-20 minutes just to receive a dessert menu. Eventually, we decided not to wait any longer and went to Dessert Gallery down the street instead. While the atmosphere and appearance of the restaurant were excellent, the slow service and food issues negatively impacted the experience. Based on this visit, I would likely not return.

We went on a Saturday for lunch. Hopefully this was just a one-off, but if you're looking for good Cajun boiled crawfish, this is not it. We started off with 6 lbs (group of 4) of their regular crawfish. First off, they put the Cajun seasoning on outside/shell (!!), which is a cardinal sin for Cajuns. They also minimally seasoned the boil, so the meat was lacking salt and flavor. We ordered 3 more lbs with the "wet sauce" (garlic butter), thinking the lack of flavor may be attributed to this being the first-ish batch of the day. Nope, the second batch was even less seasoned than the first. The sauce was good, but it didn't make up for the unseasoned meat. The crawfish were a good size, at least... Come on guys, I expect more from a Gulf Coast seafood restaurant!

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.
