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

Not what I was expecting. Boiled Crawfish was way too dry. Service was bad. Slow. Way way overpriced!

This was not Cajun seafood. The blackened catfish was ok, but the gumbo and jambalaya tasted like they just dumped gumbo file' in it and that's all you could taste. None of our party of 5 liked the food or ate it all. Very poor service and they lost money because we would have ordered more drinks but the waitress never came back. And they weren't even that busy. 

Business response:
