About this business

Located just inside the loop in the Galleria area, this restaurant is one of the best-kept secrets in Houston. A casual dining experience complete with televisions so you don't miss that important game. The menu here is wonderful. Spicy crab claws, gumbo and crab bisque are all great choices for appetizers. For an entree, try the Snapper Courtney. Be prepared as the entrees are very large and filling. Try to save room for the Key lime pie.

Great place for dispointment – my husband and i read the reviews about this restaurant on the net in search for great crawfish and to our delight we were very convinced we found the place that would satisfy our craving. we arrived at the restaurant where we were told there would be a twenty minute wait. we were sat within time. however, after sitting there for twenty minutes at a table that was the CLOSEST to the front door and after watching half a dozen waiters walk by us without even making eye contact, it was afterall th... read more

Good food, great service – We went to Bayou City on Valentine's Day. I read great reviews about the boiled crawfish on this site, so, being from New Orleans, I had to try it for myself. We started off with the crab bisque which was absolutely divine. It was beyond delicious; I highly recommend it to everyone. We also got ten pounds of crawfish to split between the two of us. Unfortunately that was a complete disappointment when compared to New Orleans crawfish. ZERO spice, very bland, and seasoning sprinkled all over the she... read more

Delicious Seafood – Visited this restaurant after several friends told me about how great the boiled crawfish are and was not dissapointed. Although it's early in the season the crawfish were delicious and spiced just right. Was so impressed with the dining experience I later in the week brought a group of co-workers for lunch and everyone raved about the lunch specials and shrimp poboys. I enjoyed the Leslie Salad with jumbo pieces of crabmeat and a cup of gumbo. The atmosphere is friendly and casual and the service was pro... read more

Best Crawfish in Houston – We had our first Boiled Crawfish of the year this past weekend and Bayou City lived up to their reputation again! Also unlike other restaurants the price was affordable at just 3.95lb during the Sunday all day happy hour. Also enjoyed the Gumbo, Oysters and Pasta Liberty. Overall the service and quality of the meal were excellent.

Disappointed – We chose this restaurant because of its reviews on this site. We were planning on going to the Rajun Cajun, which we love. We were very disappointed with this restaurant. The critical reviews were accurate--the gumbo was good, but very thin. The rest of the meal did not have the cajun spices we hoped and was average and bland at best. My red fish special with blackened sauce was bland, as were the vegetables. The portion sizes were large. My wife described this as a 5 star restaurant for a blue collar man. My ... read more

Not the palce for a nice night out Unfortunately we chose this place for our anniversary on a personal recommendation. The food was fair. Salads are iceberg with chopped tomatoes, a slice of cucumber and a black olive with a couple of slices of carrot, nothing special. Calamari was good. Sauces overwhelm the fish. The service was good. Atmosphere much like a cafeteria with a touch of a bar, nothing fancy. Okay for a lunch but not a nice night out.

Really great food and great service – I've never been disappointed with the food or the service here. Their crab bisque and crawfish bisque is wonderful. Great atmosphere for a date or dinner with friends.

Best Pastas in Town – Visited Bayou City Seafood & Pasta last night before heading over to Minute Maid to watch the Sox play the Astros with a group of five friends and as usual the food and service was excellent. Love going to Bayou City with a group because we can sample several appetizers and entrees amongst everyone. Last night we started with sauteed oysters, boiled shrimp, cajun chicken fingers and crabcake appetizers...all were delicious. My gumbo was awesome as usual and my girlfriend had her favorite the crab bisque... read more

Worst Experience Ever! – I took my wife for her birthday because we heard such great reviews of this place.....but perhaps they went to another place in the area because everything here did not match any of their comments. First of all when we arrived there was nobody to seat us, then someone walked past us(later found out his name was Ron) and informed us to just sit anywhere. We recieved our water almost immediately(only plus of the evening) but was ignored for almost 20 minutes before, I guess there was a problem with the... read more
