Tammy TauraMarch 26, 2016We got crawfish Bayou in a Bag with Oh Dang sauce and N'awlins Hot. Yummy! Was so missing my crawfish from Texas and this definitely hit the spot. Suckin' crawfish heads - just like home.
Gina CMarch 31, 2013I have a shrimp allergy and the manager bent over backwards to accommodate me - offered to cook my meal separately & had the chef prepare food I could eat. Wonderful service!
Liz BrandtJuly 15, 2013Get the whole shebang seasoning medium spicy on their head on shrimp. Holy shit it's life changing good! Get extra corn and french bread to dip into the amazing sauce. Die in heaven
Hamid Alan9aryMarch 27, 2022Team members in the front end were friendly and professional, seasoning of seafood was 2 spicy even after getting the mild option! With that said, I think it’s a bit over priced. Skip the crawfish 🦞
Brendan LewisJune 27, 2014Great place to come for crawfish. If you can somehow grab a spot at the bar, it's a much better experience
Tasting TableMay 21, 2012Order a by-the-pound option and customize it in more than a dozen different ways. You can choose from barely noticeable mild to N’awlins hot: Read more
This Calamari thou...Yes...I Love this place and its HH on Sunday at 3pm
RCAugust 7, 2014The food here is amazing and the service is top notch ! Definitely would come back here the next time we visit.- A must try for nice variety of fish ask for sautéed calamari & shrimp. Yummy....!
Tim LeeMay 26, 2013The sauce choices are better than Hot and Juicy. Very convenient for NoVA peeps to get their crawfish fix!
Chris FordFebruary 5, 2014After you drink the giant 32oz beer, do not puke in the restaurant, there is a perfectly good alley around the corner
They ARE open for lunch unlike what others have said. I'm sitting here eating lunch right now!
Edmar RicasaFebruary 22, 2015Wings are good. I don't particularly like seafood but crawfish Mac and cheese was good. Hidden retail parking garage around the corner very limited parking though- Grace S.October 1, 2013Happy hour till 7pm 32oz $7 for specialty beer. Wings. 1lb of sheebang shrimp.
LeShawna AlstonFebruary 17, 2013There is a hand washing sink in the back use it before and AFTER the meal. Finger licking good.
$3.00 bloody Mary's while supplies last so come early. I have a feelin I'll be out by 12:05
DevonyaSeptember 21, 2013Did not live up to the hype. Paid $36 for 6 female VERY SMALL crabs, a small potato, and half of corn. I was very disappointed. I left this place hungry. Could've gotten so much more at the wharf.
Deborah L.November 18, 2012Ridiculously long wait and slow service for table and food. Glasses are a little dirty and appetizers can be a little cold. Be prepared to wait a long time and bring a book, game to play, or beer cash- This place is only cool if you kno someone. Unfortunate, it's a local bar that I think will close in a year...
Beth DunnApril 18, 2012Grew up in New Orleans and was very disappointed by the food. Good Happy Hour drink prices tho.
Jon DarveauJune 25, 2015So disappointed in this place. Love this kind of food but it's just not very good here.- Where a true man is measured by how fast he can drink a bottle of wine
Parking is bad in garage since a lot of staff park their for hours.
- Greg HudsonAugust 19, 2012Been a couple times, bartenders don't know their own drinks. Food seems over fried. Just not worth it. Maybe they'll fix it?
