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

The restaurant was short on staff. But the employees worked their tails off trying to keep up. Our guy was working table's and behind the bar yesterday. A big Thank You, as a guest in town. I love Cajun and creole food, I'll be back.

Wait wasn’t too bad but must be under staffed, our waitress was polite but took forever to get drinks & refills, when meal served we still had no silverware and had to wait until she came around again to eat. Husband had 4lbs of Crawfish and with 1st 2lbs there was no corn or potato’s as advertised on sign in lobby, so we asked and waitress told us “Oh you have to ask for that!!”.

Was given a hour wait time with empty tables at 6ish. College town, spring break, I get it. Spoke with a couple waiting as well. They had been on line for 45 min. Decided to go down the road. They texted 5 min later. Will try again. 

Business response:

Hey Kenneth, I'm sorry to hear that you left our restaurant. Would you mind providing more details about the time of day, etc. We would love for you to try us again!

Ambiance was great but Very slow service, food orders were wrong and food was mediocre. The best part was watching the bridge change colors and the kids throw bread to the ducks. 

Business response:

Hey there Emily, I am very sorry to hear of your experience. If you have the time I would like to private message you in hopes of finding out more details of your visit. Thanks!
