The flavor wasn't quite there, but the amenities were awesome and the quality of the crawfish was solid--they were plenty big and I think in my 12 lbs I only got like 2 crays with straight tails.This place had the best setup I've seen for eating crawfish; they had round tables and a central trash can.

I came in Thursday and ordered 50 lbs for my son’s HS graduation yesterday- they were AWESOME! All of our guests were blown away! Thanks for making our son’s party perfect!!!!!

Worst crawfish I have had this season. Some were rotten or spoiled and a lot were dead before they were boiled. We did not enjoy these at all. Not worth the money I spent and will not be returning.

The boiled crawfish is amazing!!!! It has a great spice level and great price too. Love that we found a great place in BR. You can eat inside or they have three tables outside. We saw several people come in to pick up live crawfish, boiled crawfish, or to dine in.

We had an issue with a sack of “live” crawfish this past weekend; however, the owner was gracious enough to listen to the problem and refunded money to my brother. The owner was also able to identify a problem supplier and fix the issue. Thanks for your willingness to help. We will try your crawfish again in the future.

Disappointed. I had to pick out some trash. Paid $3 for 3 corns and couldn’t eat it because was not cooked enough or left over. and was HARD. That’s my favorite part.Sammy is better.

Yummy, perfectly cooked, and out of ten pounds only 1 crawfish wasn't edible. PERFECT!!!

Crawfish and shrimp were very tasty. Got my fix ? everything was spiced perfectly. We were driving through Baton Rouge on our way back home, and stopped to eat lunch. We enjoyed it!

The crawfish was just ok, to me. The prices for the sides are very high. Every where else may sell corn for like 3 for $1.99, but here it was 3 for $2.99, eggs are $1 each and the potatoes were $2.99. If I come back it would be just for the crawfish, not anything else!

Great food and friendly staff. The restaurant made you feel welcomed and you knew the food was homemade and made with passion. Would definitely return.

Stopped in today because I was feeling like I needed some crawfish. I got a little over 9lbs for $5.99/lb. I've come here a few times before when I didn't want to drive to my favorite place across town. They're always seasoned well and cooked perfectly. I was pleasantly surprised at the size since the season is really just getting started. There were a few small ones but mostly medium sized and a few large. I got a few potatoes and corn too and I like that they weren't over seasoned and they didn't have seasoning on the outside either (don't like that). I would recommend this place to anyone. They also sell other shell fish as well as cracklin, meat pies and sacks too. They have lunch plates too. Check them out if you're on government street.
