We stopped here on our way home. We’ve seen the sign for a long time and decided to stop because we were craving boiled crawfish. We enjoyed 3 pounds with corn and potatoes. The crawfish are excellent. Afterward we enjoyed cobbler and ice cream. Now that we realize how good the crawfish are, we will drive 20 miles to eat more. They feature cajun food plus other items such as hamburgers, hotdogs, etc.

The food, drinks, and atmosphere were all a 10/10! Their spicy margs and crawfish étouffée are out of this world. This place has a home town feel while keeping the quality of everything high! This is definitely a gem of West Henly!

We stopped here on the way to Hamilton pool, This establishment was easy to spot off the hwy with easy access and plenty of parking. The older style looks amazing and very authentic.
You are welcomed to sit anywhere with plenty of options inside, as they have a huge outdoor area with plenty of tables. Following with the service itself in relation to friendliness was good. The only thing was noted that all the servers were just randomly checking up on the tables so it seemed like there wasn’t just one server dedicated to a section, which called for way longer wait times for ordering anything and latent service.
They have two menus but in relation to their crawfish boil menu, the prices seemed very ambitious and high. Is a set price on the crawfish not following the traditional market price which was at that time around $7 and they charged a fixed $12. They advertised jumbo shrimp also for 1/3 @$11 and a full lb @$33. We ordered two Henly’s which came with 2lbs of crawfish, 1/3 of jumbo shrimp with sausage, two corns and about 3 potatoes all for $44each which if bought individually we calculated to be about $47 each.
The crawfish had a set medium spice which was rich in flavor but extremely dry with no juice. The “jumbo” shrimp compared to what I’ve seen at other restaurants were slightly bigger, but not to justify the outrageous price of $33 a single pound. After seeing the menu it would only be justified during their happy hour where it comes down to $15/lb. The sides were cooked to perfection. Lastly the sausage which was advertised at $8 was pretty small but the flavor made it better. Over all the food was not worth the price, compared to the amount of money spent to the price you pay for a whole lot for nothing speaking in portion size.
The flavor made up for a lot of things.
Lastly they have a separate menu that I haven’t tried but I would not go for their crawfish boil. But wouldn’t mind trying other item on their menu.

EDITED: unfortunately we just found out that they added an additional $25 on our bill.. we normally take a pic of our receipt and saw the actual charge in our account and it was $25 more!! We gave $15, which is generous for a $60 bill.. unhappy and very, very disappointed!!
We always look for places to eat and chill after a long, good hike.. this was close to Pedernales Falls State Park, and glad we found this spot.. outside seating is always a plus, service/servers were nice and attentive.. love the fact that multiple servers came over and asked how we’re doing throughout and if we needed anything else..

Outstanding service was provided from Tanner and Maddie!! Not to mention the food was delicious and served hot and tasty! Gucci the mini Dachshund was served a delicious “made to order” hamburger patty fresh from the grill! Everyone enjoyed a great dining experience and we look forward to returning to this special place for another excellent dining experience!

We enjoyed a bowl of shrimp gumbo. The flavor was delicious but the seafood was minimal for the entire bowl there were only about 3 shrimp. They make a solid bloody Mary and have several draft beers options. Very rustic which I personally love. Home town hang out. They do on occasion have live music on the stage outback. They have plenty of screens to watch the games inside and outside. They also have ample yard space and Frisbee golf.

We truly enjoyed our visit to the Boil Shack. Red Beans and Rice were on point, the Boudin Balls were fantastic, the shrimp was very tasty and not over seasoned. The atmosphere was fabulous and those that had crawfish around us, said they were delicious. We were happy to find this Cajun Country hideaway in the Texas Hill Country. We will be back.

Stopped by on the way from Austin to blanco. This place is a fantastic little hidden gem. Customers service is great the servers work together checking on you everytime they walk by (something you don’t see much) and the building itself is small and cozy with a neat outdoor area. Prices are on par with other Cajun food. Lastly the food is FANTASTIC!!! The flavor is on point, not too much breading on the fried shrimp, catfish, or crawfish tails. This place is a must try.
