    Oyster plate
    Jan Vincent B.

    Ordered the oyster fry platter and I was soo disappointed. 8 oysters and some fries for $23 ‍

    Cup of Lobster bisque

    My bestie & I made this our pit stop on our way home from CO. We needed to eat & stretch our legs so we chose Cajun food over texican. We were a little hesitant because how good could Cajun food possibly be this far from LA, but we were pleasantly surprised. We started off with boudin balls that were fried perfectly. They came with a sauce that Patti said reminded her of thousand island but to me tasted exactly like spicy Dijon mustard. After tasting it a second time she concurred withe me!! LOL Patti ordered the lobster bisque. I didn't taste hers but she said red lobsters is much better. I'm not sure if that is good for red lobster or really bad for the lost Cajun?? Hmm! She also said they didn't even bother to toast her bread. I reminded her we were in Amarillo not LA. She didn't think that was cute. LOL Meanwhile I ordered the cup of shrimp & grits. These grits were so creamy & delicious. Probably some of the best I've ever had. The shrimp not so much. They were definitely not fresh! They were mediocre at best but very shrimpy tasting then covered w/blackened salt to mask the taste. After letting the grits sit for a moment to cool all the grease pooled. Ugh that's probably why they were so good! Unfortunately I'm one of those people that if I see it I can't eat it anymore. Well Patti was laughing at me then! Good thing we ordered FRIED beignets that came covered in powdered sugar... delicious!

    So I was in Amarillo for a quick visit. I have eaten at many of these locations before (check out review history). The food here was consistent to the better locations. Don't be distracted by the appearance of the cooks and servers, they were fine and obviously followed the recipe. The server was ever present so distracting after a while. I was in a hurry but she was not. She was very friendly for sure. Why 4 vs. 5? Although there was no line or wait, it took forever to be seated when I was in a rush. Also, took too long to get water.

    Catfish plate, jambalaya, coleslaw, red beans and rice, garlic bread.

    We ordered delivery to our hotel through GrubHub. Food arrived hot end well packaged for delivery. We ordered the Catfish plate which came with fries and coleslaw. Red beans and rice and jambalaya. The only drawback was that no condiments came with our order. We were missing the tartar sauce and catsup.

    This is my second time visiting the Lost Cajun and again, no disappointment here! Except this time, I'm coming off a weekend in NOLA.. and clearly did not get enough there.. last time I tried the lobster bisque which was so delicious I thought about getting it again, but thought I should try the things I didn't get in NOLA but wanted. So shrimp and grits and 1/2 po boy special it is! The difference between food here and what I ate in Nawlins is next to nothing!! Def. stop in if you want a taste of Nola without having to fly to Bourbon St.

    Excellent food, great service! Some of the best Cajun food I've had in a while. Bright if utilitarian furnishings.

    Service was amazing and food was great will come back. ambiance was amazing also! We had a female…read moreserver who was amazing and the cook was very kind. They both gave an amazing customer experience if you want some good crab this is your place.

    We have dined here before and never had a problem but our server tonight was apparently not…read moreexperienced enough to even know the differences in the boil sauces used by the restaurant. We told him when we came in that we did not want our seafood boil served with the cracking sauce. My wife is allergic to the cayenne pepper used in that sauce so we knew we that we needed to order lemon pepper butter instead. He brought our order out and it was swimming in a bright red sauce. We took one bite and knew it was cracking sauce. We called him over and told him that we got the wrong sauce. He went and got the ticket and said nope that he had ordered to lemon pepper. The poor guy did not even know his food well enough when serving it to recognize that we clearly had the wrong sauce. There was no convincing him at all. We ate a few bites and then paid out to leave. That was a mistake as now my wife has a huge migraine from the cayenne pepper in the cracking sauce. This restaurant needs to at least hire staff that can know what they are serving people and clearly be able to recognize when the wrong food was delivered. We will not be returning to Cracking Crab in Amarillo on Western.
