Bayou Juice is awesome. The music, atmosphere, food and decor is nice!!
Erika GrijalvaOctober 15, 2014
The experience is better enjoyed without the gloves. Sure you will have to wash your hands thoroughly but the crawfish is worth it.

Never a miss. Recommend the oysters, fried oyster sliders, and the king crab legs with boil special sauce!

Great for seafood lovers. A Selection of multiple sauces. Also, decent drinks.

Spectacular seafood. I love this place! Must order the special sauce!!

Great crawfish but now they are only allowing people to dine for 90mins including the time you are waiting for your food.

Bad service. Took 40 mins for food to arrive. Entree came out before our apps. Gumbo tasty. Mostly veggies & rice w/some sausage & 1 shrimp. Ordered "Cajun" Crawfish. Got butter & garlic. Still good.

Crab prawns. Stay away from clams and crayfish. Gumbo is also very avg

Try the takeout. And the 90s hip hop.

The catfish basket is so good, and get combo A with a bayou punch 👌
Matty CitoDecember 18, 2016
Great stuff, especially if you come during non peak hours.
Tris PriorOctober 8, 2013
Bring some floss and breath mints! You will need both after beasting on the special + spicy!
Alexandria DangFebruary 1, 2013
A healthier Louisiana fish fry/crawfish boil joint. Reasonably priced compared to Delta Grill too.
Jackson SJune 10, 2016
all the seafood is good... the mixed drinks are a little light on the liquor
Daniel VillarAugust 15, 2014
To die for. The sauce they use on their food is the best
VictorMarch 20, 2016
Make sure to order a side of their garlic buns, SO GOOD!

get the shrimp with the boil special sauce and mild spicy
Mimi FuchsAugust 10, 2013
Definitely get a combo dish. Anything eaten out of a bag is a win.

Clams in the lemon garlic sauce is delicious. I just wish they weren't cash only.
Jocelyn HartmannMay 21, 2013
Shellfish is really fresh and prices are on point - stay away from the lemon garlic sauce... Way too heavy
thmMarch 12, 2014
This place is amazeballs!!! So good. A must try
Darrel DawkinsJanuary 30, 2016
Good food !!! The crab legs are amazing!!!
Amar BraithwaiteJuly 28, 2015
Get a side of garlic bread to sop up the sauce!
Vivian VoNovember 4, 2014
Cash only - if you get 2 lbs of anything, they add potatoes & corn 😋
TingSeptember 9, 2014
Order anything with 'the boil' sauce. They arm you with bibs and gloves but expect to get messy.

Cash only. Prepare to order seconds and thirds. Lobster, shrimp, crab = good eating. Tiny crawfish not so impressive
MikeNovember 15, 2014
Cash only and long waits for tables but it's worth it
Anthony HudsonFebruary 27, 2015
Get the crab legs with the boil secret sauce !
Giang BMarch 3, 2019
Garlic butter sauce with everything
Daniel BlackburnJuly 19, 2017
They told us they wouldn't seat us unless our entire party was present (2 people parking ), then proceeded to start the party after us who was also waiting on people parking. Guess what color we are?
Clarissa VainiusAugust 29, 2013
Anything with the boil sauce... Mmmmm so good.
Alice EunjinMay 5, 2015
Clam with garlic sauce - so good
Cheng J'sSeptember 11, 2013
The Clams was very good on Garlic Sauce
Wek HernandezMarch 19, 2015
Eat before you go here cause youll be eating after 2 hrs of waiting.
debzMay 25, 2013
If they give you the option to sit in either the front or back, ALWAYS choose the back (where the lighting is dim). No one wants to see that shit all over you. Not a good look.
MindyDecember 21, 2014
You can only be seated if your entire party is there.
