Decided we would check it out but was wary because we use to live in Louisiana and know what good Cajun food is.
We were pleasantly surprised.
The atmosphere was pleasant. .
The service was great and the food was excellent.
We will definitely go back each time I go to the VA.“

“My favorite place to get a taco salad, soda, and side of rice for under 15$ at lunch. There lunch specials are awsome and food is very tasty. I have gone there so much and ordered the same thing so much the cooks in the back see me and atomaticly know what I want.

Wheelchair accessibility: People with walkers or wheelchairs come all the time.“

“We had a fantastic time here! The seafood boil is delicious, with plenty of seasoning options to suit your taste. The atmosphere is upbeat, making it a fun spot for dinner with friends or family. Highly recommend Crafty Crab for a flavorful seafood experience!“

“Hands down the best Gumbo I’ve ever had! The gentleman that took our order was so sweet!“

“La Calle Doce is a gem! We went for Friday lunch and loved everything—the cozy, beautifully maintained old house, peaceful vibe, and excellent service. I had the lunch special with fish soup and a ceviche tostada, and my husband had the salmon salad. Both were incredible, and the spicy ranch waters were a fun bonus. Some of the best food I’ve had in Dallas—can’t wait to go back!“

“The manager is the great!!!! Love this place!!“

“We had cooking lessons with Mary Mary was so welcoming and generous, just like her cooking 🇬🇷🥒🍅 We had a great time, cooking, talking and laughing, and learned lots of good tips about Cretan cooking. She also gave us each a cute apron, which we will wear each time we cook Greek dishes Highly recommended 😍“

“Where do I start?? This resto here in Hachie doesn't feel like you're in Hachie. There's a stellar patio that sits upon a man-made lake.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth, and the experience just kept getting better from there.

The food was incredible — so fresh you could taste the quality in every bite. The portion sizes were generous, and the variety on the menu made it hard to choose (in the best way!). Every dish was bursting with flavor — clearly made with care and love.

But what made our visit truly unforgettable was the amazing service. A huge shout-out to Kenzie, our waitress, who was bubbly, friendly, and beyond helpful. She made us feel right at home with her energy and attentiveness, and she’s a big reason we’ll definitely be back.

If you're looking for fresh seafood, delicious flavors, and the kind of service that makes you smile long after you've left — don’t miss this spot!“

“Delicious 😋 I love Dan's whole catfish...“

“My family and I stopped by Royal Fried Seafood and Grill when we were in Cedar Hill for a family reunion. The service was 10/10 and the food was absolutely amazing. My 7 year old son absolutely said this was the best food we had the entire trip, and though we’re foodies, my husband and I agreed! We’re already craving it again now that we’re back in Kansas! If we ever find ourselves back in the area, this WILL be on our list of stops! A true gem!“

“Delicious! I stopped by to pick up some food on my way home and was trying somewhere new. Man! Am I glad I did. As a business owner, service is one the things that helps places stand out for good or bad. And I have to say, the service I received here was one of the best. Highly recommended!“

“The Customer Service of the young lady at the register and store Manager Jesus went above and beyond Service. Mom and I decided to dine in to eat some seafood, we ordered a 2 and 3 piece fish meal and they offered us some fried shrimp for an additional reasonable price with 2 waters. The food was delivered to our table hot, fresh and it was delicious. The Manager Jesus even came by our table to see if we needed anything else. Definitely recommend to try this location, will definitely be going back.“

“Awesome staff & great food!!!“

“My first time going it was so good please go try them out“

“Great atmosphere and service. Vodka daiquiri was fabulous and not too sweet. They allowed me to sample before I decided. The Hulk Daiquiri was more tart but good. I had them make me a 2nd one with a lil more vodka daq and the rest tequila Hulk daq. Fried oyesters were fresh snd excellent! Couldn't tell if calamari was pre-made or freshly prepared. Overall experience was great!!+“

“pull up in get u a basket of your khoice“

“First time trying the food, it was amazing. Very well prepared, and I love the fact that it was real catfish. I will certainly order again.“

“The hostess at the door was rude..service was just ok ,but slow...the only saving grace is surprisingly the food was very good..almost turned around and left after the rude lady with an attitude before she sat us..And ordered a couple bottle beers barely drinkable..not where close to cold..“

“JJ's is a classic south-side fish and chicken joint. Nothing fancy to look at and no pretentious decor - chairs and tables, TV's and great food. But if you want great tasting consistent chicken wings or fish, JJ's is your spot. Very consistent food prepared the same way to get the same level of flavor and juiciness out of the first to last bite. They carry a big selection of deserts. I have not had all of them, but the one's I have had were above average and delicious. My go-to is the 10 piece wings along with a perch dinner.
If there is one shortcoming, it's that they serve tarter sauce packets with the fish. Order ahead because they are always busy.“

“They never disappoint with their fish and they have the best Cole slaw and desserts.“

“Even though the name has changed to Crafty Crab🤣 the food was amazing, the drinks were on point and since it was Mother’s Day it was a bit crowded and they were under-staffed the staff did an awesome job and I would recommend my friends and family to go and check them out!“

“Delicious, well seasoned, fried catfish fillets and french fries. Served with fresh bread, peppers, and pickles. Note: Long line on Friday’s, but it moves quickly after you have ordered.

Blue is the owner, great operation! Been going since the early 2000s.“

“Excellent food and service“

“Soul Circles Pizza Kitchen this was a great spot in Duncanville. Pizza was amazing, crust was really good.“

“Los tacos de asada muy ricos y son rápidos“

“I absolutely love the Shrimp here!!!! Don’t get sides of ranch or ketchup it’s .25 a piece and very small…. Just buy a bottle from Aldi down the street.“

“I have no words for how perfect this place is. I took my family here for lunch and yall, the seafood platter has everything you need. I got the fish and waffles - that was wonderful, that catfish was just heaven on a plate. I’m only putting 5 stars because there’s no 10 star option available. My family members were treated like royalty and the music and atmosphere was so chill and relaxed. It was truly a vibe yall and please do yourself a favor and get the key like pie if you are into dessert. You won’t be sorry. Thank you Pelican house, we will be back.“

“This food was so good, that I tasted it and closed the box. I was so scared that I would forget people were in there with me. So I waited till I left, and ate it like a wild animal. I got dirty like a 2 year old. Feel asleep and dreamed about this food. All I can say is thanks you and finally“

“The fish was GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD and they cook everything when you order. They're very polite and punctual plus the food was fresh.“

“We're in town for the TABC tournament. And my Wife scored again with this one! Let's start off with the service. Ashley was phenomenal she was patient as we asked alot of questions about the food. And gave great recommendations. 10/10 Ashley!!👏🏿 The restaurant is very clean and smelled good.

Food- OMG the Fried Catfish is seasoned to perfection and fried hard without asking. 10/10
I got Mac and Cheese and Candy Yams and all I can say is somebodies Auntie is back there cooking! 😆 10/10. The tartar sauce is homemade so you know it was good.

Wings and Shrimp. The Sweet and Spicy Siracha wings could have been fried harder but we didn't get breaded so that's on us 7/10. But the shrimp!!! My GOODNESS. 10/10.

Now let's discuss the Daiquiris. I got the Pimp Juice and it's a mixture of all the flavors. And I must say, they've perfected the flavors!
We also got a ScrewDriver and if you want to feel good, try that one. They're a MUST when you come here.“

“Very good very fast our server Ty was great“

“great food and service is fast“

“The food n service is excellent. It was my first time and the young lady was pleasant with her service . The catfish is my new love here 😍“

“I love their Cajun fish and if I’m in the area I will stop by. Definitely hate the owners decisions to close majority of the locations down? I miss the Waxahachie location I can remember eating there as kid and grown up! Why? They don’t make true fresh hot Catfish anymore.. Please consider this review“

“The Friday Crab Boil Bag.“

“This is a restaurant inside of a gas station. Food here is good. Service is always quick and courteous. The brisket tacos are pretty awesome. A step above for sure with the smoked brisket. They also have a loaded baked potato (done chophouse style w/ smoked meat and baked beans, etc.) that will leave you stuffed if you can eat it all. Great place to eat.“

“The service and food was amazing! Laura, our waitress, helped me with suggestions for dinner and drinks and went up and above. She even brought my daughter some beads not knowing we were here for her birthday shopping. We will definitely be back and sitting in Laura's section again!“

“The food and service was amazing and a good price for the portions u get.“

“First time visiting this restaurant. Nice atmosphere. Nice family environment. While we were there we were in the presence of a 56th birthday celebration and a graduation. Nice group. We had the shrimp basket and the 12 piece wing (lemon pepper). Food arrived hot and seasoned perfectly. Family really enjoyed our meal.“

“The hostess at the door was rude..service was just ok ,but slow...the only saving grace is surprisingly the food was very good..almost turned around and left after the rude lady with an attitude before she sat us..And ordered a couple bottle beers barely drinkable..not where close to cold..“

“My 1st lunch here, "spicy fish & shrimp basket" was off the chain, I will be back tomorrow.. & the next day😋“

“The management team was great working with me and my party. There were 20+ people in our party and the staff did a great job meeting our needs on the day of my gathering in July 2025. The food was delicious, the music and vibe was on point. i visited this spot over a year ago and didn't have a good experience with food or service but my recent visit reflected a totally different experience as mentioned above. I will definitely visit again and hopefully its cooler so that we. an enjoy their patio area.“

“Yessir! Had the smothered lamb chops earlier today. Will definitely be back through!“

“Mi esposo y yo frecuentemos este lugar y nuestra mesera favorita es Reyna. Es amable, profesional y nunca se olvida de preguntar si todo está bien o si puede traer algo más. Gracias Reyna eres la mejor!! Blanca y Salvador“

“My shrimp order was good, but the lady behind had called in an order of tails. When she got there to pick them up she was told they were out of tails. I felt so bad for her because my wife eats them & loves them when they are fried extra crispy. Some one dropped the ball when they took her order#SoSad.“

“Chicken was hot and good. I got the special, they cook everything fresh. Anything fried you want they got! Fish, chicken fried steak, okra. But be careful they got lots of boxes of soda sitting at windows. You order at one window and pick up at another.“

“Such good food, daiquiris & service.“

“Delicious 😋 it's a great place to eat“

“Wow! 😮 I want their fried chicken, and you can't beat the deal—2 legs for just $1.99! Tell me where else you can find something like this! Nowhere, I tell you! Their menu is packed with a variety of foods, and they also serve desserts and Kool-Aid, yes, fountain drinks! Again, go see for yourself! ❤️“
