Everything was on point! My crawfish was amazing as always and flavorful. I ordered the mussels with the coconut sauce (was not a fan but ordered some sauce on the side). Tried the oysters tacos and it wasn’t bad.

As part of Pearland Restaurant Weeks, Cajun Café was the fifth restaurant we visited — and it did not disappoint! We tried the crawfish eggrolls, crawfish étouffée, and bread pudding with vanilla ice cream — everything was absolutely delicious. A coworker ordered the flounder and loved it too. Great food, friendly service, and even better knowing that part of the proceeds go to support the Pearland Neighborhood Center. We’ll definitely be back!

I went for the first time. I signed up for their rewards program so I could get $8 off my first order. I would’ve went despite the incentive. My to-go order was ready when they said it would be, the food was packaged well and everything was very tasteful. I’m going back next Saturday and try the Codfish and buy more of their seafood gumbo.

Mel was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we sat down, she made us feel welcomed and taken care of. She was friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu — her recommendations were spot on. Our food came out perfectly, our drinks stayed full, and the entire experience flowed smoothly because of her. Mel truly went above and beyond and made our visit memorable. If you’re dining here, ask for Mel — she’s amazing!.

Compliments to the chef. The grilled oysters and grilled blue crabs are my favorite. Grilled to perfection. I love that each meal has been consistently good/ . Both delivery and dine in experiences. I recommend this place to any crab lover. Me and my family will be back soon.

My family and I tried this place for the first time over the weekend, and it absolutely did not disappoint! We will definitely be repeat customers. The service was excellent from start to finish. Our server, T, was patient, informative, and made the whole experience even better. Our food and drinks came out quickly, which we appreciated. We ordered a few pounds of crawfish and sampled different flavors and spice levels—and wow. This was hands down some of the best crawfish we’ve ever had!

Our server Rendell was absolutely awesome! From the moment we sat down, he was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. He checked in at just the right times, kept our drinks filled, and made great menu suggestions. You could really tell he cared about giving great service, and it made the whole experience even better. We’ll definitely be back and hope to have him as our server again. Highly recommend!

Was recommended by a friend, and the food did not disappoint. We came at 8:00pm on a Sunday and the estimated wait was 45 minutes. It ended up being about 30 minutes. The holdup, which may be common, was at least one large party that took up multiple tables and continued to socialize after finishing their food. It was fairly loud, with a full house and alcohol it’s to be expected.
Turnaround time for food was quite fast. While my server forgot the limes/lemons when he offered me, I did not mind because the food didn’t really need it. We received no dead crawfish/shrimp, and they have buckets, bowls, plates, bibs, and gloves. Crawfish beignets were good and heavy, eating all 3 would be a challenge for most folks if you’re focused on crawfish afterwards. Bird pack with wings were decent, Combo 1 was good. If the spice level is consistent with our first time experience, their mild is not spicy at all; I got medium and I would have liked it spicier. I would rather go under then over the spice level regardless, as crawfish places vary wildly on spiciness. My spice tolerance is about habanero/some
Ghost pepper hot sauces at the store for reference.
I would come back again for a quick fix. Would recommend.

Thy was an awesome host. This was my first visit and she gave great recommendations. She was attentive, friendly and provided great customer service. The food was delicious, I ordered the crawfish with the traditional blend sauce, shrimp, potatoes and corn. Kiddo had the ever battered fish, that was yummy too. Will definitely return.

My first time visiting the Crawfish Cafe. I had the BBQ shrimp for an appetizer. The flavor was as delicious, it was sweet with a bit of heat but the shrimp was overcooked and the shell was hard to peel. I ordered the catfish plate and while the fish was cooked perfectly, for $20 I received 2 small pieces, and the peach margarita was all juice.
