Don't! The awful smell when you enter the "restaurant" will almost make you pass out. No one even greets you. My party of 6 turned around and walked out. read more

With so many crawfish spots in Lafayette you may not come across this one but it's worth a visit. One of my friends drove 10 miles just to get boiled crawfish & shrimp from here and when she shared her shrimp (I don't care for crawfish unless someone will peel them for me :) )it became my frequent Covid lockdown meal to enjoy with a daiquiri on my balcony! The shrimp are big butterfly and already deveined and the shell peels off in one tug. Get the medium-spicy flavoring, it had spice and it had more flavor than the other two. Spicy lacked flavor other than being hot and I like more kick than mild (but I haven't tried w/ the crawfish) To go is available! They do allow you to phone order ahead and pick it up at the window or you can order at the window and wait but wait time can between 15-20 sometimes because it gets backed up sometimes (idk if this is pre-covid or not) ! read more

Before you order definitely ask about the menu if you have any questions. We have never been to Louisiana. So we didn't know. Ended up ordering a 5 lb plate of crawfish and a 3 lb plate of crawfish for my husband and I?? We thought it was lo Country boil. The crawfish were still really good!! read more

This place seems like a bile in the wall place in a strip mall, but is well worth the stop. I've been twice now and had crawfish both times. The last visit i alsk tried the boudan. The food was amazing. The place was also kinda packed both times i went and now i know why. The food is amazing and not too e pensive for what you get. If you're looking for crab or crawfish give this place a ahot it won't disappoint. read more

Great Crawfish! Had to get a second serving they were so good. Nice and simple shop. Drive-thru for convenience. read more

When I arrived, I was greeted by a super friendly woman. I ordered five lbs of crawfish spicy. It was about 32$. I thought that was a really good price. They were perfectly spicy. Although, I always dip mine in more seasoning. They had containers of the seasoning right next to the register for you. The lady even came to check on me as I was eating. I will definitely be back. It was amazing! read more

The Crawfish Spot - a plate of cooked crawfish - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

Louisiana native here! I was finishing my degree at ULL when this place opened. My wife and I just revisited 2 years later. For 5/lbs it was 30$ at the time we visited, which is extremely fair for the quality and taste. The spicy never fails to satisfy us! (The medium was not spicy enough) This place is on point for the spice EVERY time we visit. #LegitHoleInTheWall read more

YUMMY!!! As soon as you park you'll immediately know where to go. The smell of steamed crawfish and shrimps had us drooling! We didn't have to wait long and the seasoning was on point! read more

So been here twice, had crawfish the first time which were well seasoned just small. The real winner for me was all the crab, mmmm....their butter sauce is like melted movie popcorn butter which you know is probably going to kill me but it is SOOO good on the crab and corn on the cob!!! I think dungenous won out as best crab over the king and snow. Just really well done and satisfied my craving. read more

Best crawfish in town! I'll go back the next time I'm in town. Took my kids for their first crawfish experience and they loved it.

We had 5 lbs of crawfish with potatoes and corn. We also ordered the combo Dungeness and Snow crab. Everything was perfect. Perfectly seasoned. The waitstaff and owner/manager(?) we're very accommodating and helpful. There was even a sink with salt scrub to get all of the smell off of your hands. It was fabulous. Anytime we go to Louisiana, this will be one of our stops! read more

Great shrimp to go. Always well prepared and several "spice " levels to choose from. Mild Regular and Spicy. We go with the mild, plenty of heat for us. Good always in the count in a boiled pound, 25-30. They have super boiled crabs also if ya desire for a big dinner. read more

It's wasn't crawfish season so I stopped in for blue point crabs and shrimp. Everything was seasoned to perfection. It definitely satisfied my seafood craving. read more

I'm funny about my spice if I tell you I want spicy then it damn well better be spicy. Owners said don't worry we got you, and believe me they scored from their on goal line !!! Not lying this place is a keeper I'm from Athens Ga and I love my crawfish and these did not disappoint, just like I make 10 out of 10 read more

The Crawfish Spot - Crawfish - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

Drove all the way from Houston to have some good ole crawfish and it was only so-so. Considering we're in the heart of crawfish season, they were not very big at all and didn't taste fresh fresh. $27 for 5lbs and it only comes with one potato (the size of a golf ball) and a third of a corn! You think with 5lbs!! they can add an additional potato and corn. Any additional corn or potato cost 75 cents each! Maybe I just need to stick w/ HEB? Lol! read more

We ordered 20lbs to go last night. They were packed in 5lb bags and wrapped well to keep warm and not leak. We got the Medium spice and it had a great spice... I like spicy food and I think that the highest spice would have been a little roo much for me to really enjoy. The seasoning was great, the Crawfish were probably 80% large and 20% medium. We were very impressed with the service on ordering and pick up and we are all still talking about how much we enjoyed the Crawfish still this morning!! Will definitely visit again! read more

The crawfish here was decent compare to the other places ive been. Im from cali so this was saltier then I expected and ask thier sauce was too plain just salt and spice. Prices were average and staff was nice. read more

This is a little hole in the Wall with a big Punch! Decor is Hell Red walls, don't think it's paint I believe the spice has permeated the walls. It's plain all the the works goes into he crawfish and boil magic. I order 3 lbs, some crab, shrimp. Crab I could do without it's just not a boil with it. Excellent heat and fresh cooked ingredients. Staff very cool came around to make sure I was satisfied. Drinks are bottled variety only no fountain or big cups of tea, like I said it's all in the crawfish!!! read more

They have good stuff, all their seafood were fresh especially crawfish. Prices seem fair, ~$22/3lbs of crawfish. The only complain is they made it kinda salty, other than that the seasoning was on point in term of spicy level & spices. Get some extra corn to wash down the saltiness though cause them fat, plum, juicy crawfish was worth it! read more

BOMB. This spot is up there for best crawfish in Lafayette. The prices are awesome and the fact that each order already comes with a corn and potato?! Yesss. 3lbs medium crawfish was delicious. I'll be back. read more

We hit this place on our drive back from Phoenix to Florida back in June. It was obviously the end of the season and most places were already closing up early so we had our doubts but our birthday boy wanted crawfish so we gave it a shot. Although we live in Pensacola we are crawfish fanatics. In season we eat them several times a week. You absolutely cannot beat the crawfish at this restaurant. They were fantastic, perfectly seasoned and plentiful. We travel often between Florida and Arizona and this will be a planned stop on our travels for years to come read more

Tried this place again this year. It use to be my favorite place for crawfish. The crawfish are clean, seasoned but very salty. I have gone there four times this month and the crawfish were too salty 3 of the 4 times. I will try once more and try their milder version. read more

Wow this place was great, if you want spicy hot crawfish this is your place . Cool kids working here all very friendly and helpful. Nothing fancy here just good food read more

We got crawfish and shrimp. Both were seasoned to perfection. They peeled easy. Would highly recommend this.

amazing. straight up on point. they aint cut no corners with the meaning boiling seafood.

Rude employees half of them are doing nothing but playing on their phones disrespectful and always at least a 15 minute wait to pick up any food from there. If you're a delivery driver I highly recommend passing on this place anytime it comes up. read more

Very small hole in the wall type place, walking in you are hit in the face with CRAWFISH BOIL, which is what we are there for, wow, these jewels came out, all of them really nice size, noticed they had a harder shell but still ok to peel, WOW, been eating crawfish all over and so far these are the best and if you are a head sucker like I am you get wonderful lemony spice, yummmmm. Big claws on most, super tender meat, I'm thinking now all my crawfish I ever ate had been slightly or over cooked... highly recommend, noticed they even have a drive thru if you want to order and run... read more

Our food was undercooked... we got crab legs, crawfish and shrimp outside of the shrimp we had to re-cook everything. My crab legs were not fresh... you could taste the "old ness" - I wouldn't visit again.. you get what you pay for. Again.. the shrimp was good but that's it! read more

Overpriced for the small amount you get. First time coming here and after receiving our food we realized why they have a "NO REFUND" sign at the counter. Very disappointed with our experience here. If we ever find ourselves in Louisiana, we will not be stopping here for crab legs. I regret leaving a tip... had I known this experience would be this disappointing. $36 for 3 clusters of snow crab and 2 (.75) butter dips. I could've gone to a grocery store and spent way less and got more for my money. The spicy seasoning was probably the better choice, because the medium was ridiculously salty. My daughter hated it and refused to eat it and she loves crab legs. read more

This is by far the best crawfish place that we have ever tried in these parts of Louisiana it beats "Steam boats Bill" we will be coming back for more. Too bad we couldn't take some back to Texas with us! The place was nice and clean we got good service a big plus for me, of course the price was good for 5lbs. Of course we gave it a six read more

Crawfish was the best I've ever tasted in Louisiana! Corn in potatoes were tasteless and tasted like they were boiled in water. The cream sauce you can add on to the order is a little off in my opinion to pair with it.. it tasted like big Mac sauce. I still give then 4 stars for the crawfish!!! read more

For this season, it was my fav crawfish spot. I got it extra spicy and boy it was spicy. Usually I can handle the heat this may have been too much. Having said that, I still enjoyed it. Crawfish were great size. My only nitpick I wish they had fountain drinks not bottles. read more

was in town for business staying down the street. little place that is in a strip mall with lots of activity. it was absolutely the best crab and shrimp i have ever had. people were lined up to take home food and i can see why. it will be my to go to place each time i go there. atmosphere is just a hole in the wall. people super friendly . you walk in the door and it smells like cooking crawfish! yum. read more

Delicious spicy (but not too hot) large boiled shrimp, corn and potatoes! First time here. Thank you

This is one of the boiled crawfish spots I go to when I'm visiting. I usually get 5 pounds which runs about $23. It comes with one potato and one corn. You can also order sausages and mushrooms both are my favorite.The different spice levels truly are what they say they are. A medium spice is exactly what it is. So if you like spicy crawfish go ahead and get the hot.if you like to suck the heads of the crawfish you might get a strong sense of lemon flavor. I believe it's because they use a lemon flavored crawfish boil. So if lemon is your favorite flavor then this place is for you. They've added a couple of poorboy items to their menu, pulled pork Tasso and sausage. Keep in mind you will not find boiled Bluepoint crabs here. There is king Dungeoness and snow crabs though. read more

The Crawfish Spot - 5lbs of boiled crawfish with 2 sausages - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

The ultimate no-frills crawfish eating experience. Why doesn't a place like this exist in New Orleans!??!?!? So simple - friendly service, HUGE, impeccable quality, clean crawfish boiled to order, to your spice-specifications and served on brilliant metal trays that allow you keep your peels separate from the unpeeled. I wasn't sure what to think about eating crawfish with bibs and gloves on, but in the end I am a major convert! After our meal we simply removed our gloves and walked out the front door. We didn't even wash our hands!!! So civilized. I CANNOT WAIT TO COME BACK! read more

Attending a wedding in the Lafayette area and we are from the Houston area. A quick yelp search of best crawfish popped up The Crawfish Spot. It was less than half a mile down from the hotel. We walked in at opening time to a empty restaurant and the great smell of spicy crawfish. We were planning on hitting up a couple spots but decided these were as good as it gets. Highly recommended and a bonus for being open at 11 when some of the other highly regarded places were not open til 4pm. Some of us need our fix early! read more
