| - Looks like folks are givin' Cajun Crawfish a hard time. Hmm. Well, I've not yet been to the "other crawfish joint" in town, and I'm sure it's wildly amazing, but, I honestly really liked this place.
When I walked in on a Saturday night, it wasn't hoppin', but it seemed to have some faithful followers. The lighting is a little dim, but comfortable, and the tables are covered in white paper just waiting to be doused in butter.
My friend and I used a restaurant.com coupon, which saved us $25 on our $35 bill, so could we really go wrong??
We ordered the shrimp with the house special sauce (a mix of garlic butter and cajun sauce), crab legs in garlic butter, a potato and corn. The only complaint I really have is that the corn seemed over-cooked and looked... well... over-cooked. Otherwise, I have no real complaints. Now, at places like this, the shrimp is served with its head. Seeing the faces of my food has never been a sought after experience for me, but... eh... Here's to new experiences. Once de-headed, the shrimp was good, albeit just a hair over done. Still yummy in its garlicky-spicy sauce. The show-stealer, though, was the crab legs. DELICIOUS. Have you ever licked the OUTSIDE of a crustacean? Yeah, that good. This sauce was out of this world! Butter, garlic, garlic, garlic. I believe I took a butter bath. One of those experiences where you look up afterward, shake your head a little and try to remember where exactly you are.
So, perfect? No. Worth a try? I would definitely say yes - especially if you choose to bathe with the crab legs in garlic butter.
