      Ordered take-out again and it was perfection. Had the best birthday dinner for my husband at home. It was fresh, delicious and we had leftovers. The specials are well worth the price for quality AND amount. Thank you again.

      At first, I was skeptical from the outside. It didn't look good and then we went inside and it was empty, but I was pleasantly surprised at the excellent service from our waiter he explained the menu to us gave us lots of options to customize our meal and when our food came, it looked and smelled good. Yes it was plastic utensils and paper plates but the food was delicious and plentiful. Our server came back with free refills and asking if we had enough. If you leave hungry from here you did something wrong.

      My wife had the crab legs and shrimp and I had the NewOrl3ans fried platter. Both were really great. The owner/manager/waiter was one of the most attentive servers I've ever experienced. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

      Great dinner and AMAZING SERVICE!

      10/10. the customer service is always great, they're super friendly and don't mind giving u samples to try stuff and the food is always delicious. it does take some time for the food to come out, i've been both busy and quite dead and it always takes a long time

      We ordered the 71.99 platter from Live Crawfish for Mother's Day for pick up to eat at home, along with a half dozen of blue crabs. We also added clams to the platter so after tip our total was a little over $130. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. I've always loved this place and recommend it to anyone looking for good, fresh seafood in the area. The entire tray of blue crab were mushy and inedible. We got dungeness and snow crab as well. I didn't get a chance to taste the snow crab but the dungeness was also mushy. The crawfish were great and so were the clams and shrimp. But to spend that much money to not be able to eat majority of the food is ridiculous. I won't be coming back or recommending live crawfish for awhile.

      OH MY GOODNESS! Man this was good! We came from Utah to visit friends in and around Richmond. One of our good friends who lives in Richmond took us to this place. We were NOT disappointed! We ordered the largest thing we could complete with lobster, and let me tell ya, the whole thing, including the sausage, was top notch! It doesn't look like much, but the service and the food was truly great! The mussels were huge, and very fresh! Potatoes, snow crab, the lobster, and the sausage were all just incredible! I can't say enough about this food - it was garlicky and flavorful - way better than other boils I've had. Go here! Sit down, pick what you want, and spend the money! you won't be disappointed! Don't leave out the sausage... it was amazing!

      I have been going here since 2019, the food and service has always been fantastic and keeps getting better! If you want some New Orleans seasoned seafood, by all means go and you won't be disappointed at all! I just love this place and now they have a location in Midlothian! The atmosphere in both locations are both so relaxing and inviting for a pleasant dining experience.

      A few of us LSU fans enjoyed fresh flown in from Nawlins perfectly boiled crawfish.. some had boiled shrimp & fried oysters. All devoured delicious bite sized beignets. We wore our powdered sugar as trophiesgreat food, atmosphere & service. Nathan, owner works very hard. It's our "Geaux To" for crawfish fix

      Great portions! Mixed seasoning was to die for and the prices were very reasonable! Will come back.
