    Merry Christmas!!!!!!

    Thirsty Texans was such an amazing experience thanks to the bartender Bri who happen to be the most attentive bartender I've ever met in my life!! Great food and really good vibes throughout and the staff really takes care of all customers. B

    This is a good neighborhood bar. But that's about it. One of the waitresses was drunk and accused me of not paying the tab before I left. Umm, don't poke the bear sweetie. Perhaps you shouldn't drink on the job then you would have known if I closed my tab (which I already did). Then once she discovered that I did in fact close my tab, she approached me with open arms and squeezed me saying "I LOVE YOU". Umm, FIRST, Do not touch me. SECOND, Do not drink on the job to get drunk), LASTLY, Never accuse someone of not paying their tab if you first have not confirmed it. This is a BIG NO NO in my book. I really do not care if you are an employee of a bar, never touch someone that does not want to be touched. She is very lucky that I didn't say anything and kindly walked out of the bar. Whomever reads this, make sure you keep both eyes open at this place. **MODERATE RISK ESTABLISHMENT*

    I'm currently sitting at Thirsty Texans and I must say I'm Completely upset with the customer service by just ONE bartender.. Everyone wants their food made a certain way and I was really nice about it.. To have a piece of paper shoved in your face and be told " You write it out" doesn't feel to good. I did write it out but she never came back. The owner ( I presume) came out and asked me was I taken care of. I explained I must of frustrated your bartender cause she never came back. He did get a super friendly bartender to help me but I can't shake the fact she never came back or acknowledged me since and she has walked past me NUMEROUS TIMES! Its like I made her day bad! I was apologetic at first and felt bad but I thought about it. I never was rude or loud or any of the sort and I didn't deserve that treatment. This used to be my spot of choice on Tuesday but I may have to reconsider. However, here is the weekly specials! :) They are normally a good spot for strong drinks and friendly people!

    Tori! Tori! Tori! Every time we come in she gives us the best customer service with that beautiful smile of hers.

    Why would they let young kids in a dark bar?!
    L G.

    They let a man in with his 2 daughters that were under 10 years old! This is a full blown adult only bar. The place is dark, loud music and everyone is drunk, this is not a "dave& busters" type of bar, its a dark grungy old man bar and they didn't address it! It was disturbing. The young girls sat down at the table while their dad drank his liquor!

Not a "howdy" or a "be with you in a minute". Not even a welcome to Woodys. We sat for about 10 minutes. Nothing. No Bingo. No service. No "Hi" no "Bye". I began to wonder if it was a private event going on. Either way, I'll never know because I'm not spending a dime to feel invisible or taken for granted. I heard they have a pretty good burger. It would have to be Himalayan Wagyu Mountain Longhorn meat to get me in that place again. He could giveaway a yacht and box season tickets for the Astros and I wouldn't even sit on the patio to see if I won. I've had some pretty crappy service before, I've had first day waiters, one even spilled a drink on me before. I've had busy waiters, who were running the entire show by themselves but this place beats them all. If you read this far, you are probably waiting on the punchline. Well, I was too and they didn't have that either. Good Luck with your business Woody. I hope you survive so I can drive by on the way out of my neighborhood and be reminded that no matter how bad the service gets at any establishment, it's still service and it beats crickets any day.

We got about 5 lbs for around $30 (or ~$7.99/lb), which is hard to beat. At first, the flavor leaned a little salty, but once we figured out how to mix in the seasoning and butter, it really hit. The size of the crawfish was also impressive--definitely not small. We also tried a couple of the steaks (one around $16.99 and another closer to $24.99), and for the price, they were pretty good. The space itself is huge. The indoor bar area is massive, and outside there's a big patio plus multiple volleyball courts, which gives it a really fun, social vibe. I've heard Fridays get pretty lively, so I can see this being a go-to hangout spot. Customer service was just okay--not bad, but nothing standout. That said, the pricing, food, and overall atmosphere make up for it. I'd definitely come back, especially for the crawfish!
