About this business

We're a fun and funky family restaurant on the banks of the Brazos River specializing in Cajun and Creole cooking, we're happy to keep it spicy or make it milder if that's your preference. We've been voted the best seafood in town. We serve hot boiled crawfish and fresh oysters on the half shell when they're in season. Awesome pastas, burgers, and salads with lots of other options for people that don't eat seafood. We also have a full bar and a great beer selection. Be sure to ask for "duck bread" and feed the river wildlife... read more

No one greets us. Standing around. Wait 5mins. Seat ourselves at the bar. Wait 5mins. Finally, ask a waitress if we are ok to seat ourselves at the bar(hint hint...). She says "sure" and walks away to the table where she is seated with 2 other female employees folding silverware in napkins. Doesnt send for anyone. No apologies. NADA. She was bothered. Wait 5mins. ONE GUY is running around like a chicken with his head cut off. Asks if weve been helped. Say no. He goes over and says something to the 3 silverwear/napkin girls. ... read more

Business response:

Chanse, I am very sorry to hear that this happened, that is unnaceptable. I appreciate you providing those details so we can get to the bottom of this. Once again I'm very sorry, and we would love it if you gave us another try.

I actually wish you could rate this place ZERO stars that’s what it actually deserves! The management is beyond rude. FYI they don’t allow you to fish off there property nor will they let you park in the parking lot at 9:45 am to fish during the. State oh its for costumers only when they have no signs posted !!!! Save your time an money don’t eat here. 

Business response:

I sorry your so upset. We have very limited parking and we need it for customers. There is public parking and the stadium also is available for parking. Our insurance does not allow us to let people fish. If you were hurt we would not be covered. It was not meant to upset you we are just trying to protect you and our business. We do have a sign posted at the entrance when you drive into the parking lot . Again I apologize for upsetting you
