Atmosphere:
Upon entering, you could just tell it was just a great place to be at. So many groups of people, all just having a good time with each others presence and enjoying the great food. Same could be said about going to the outside portion of the establishment.

Service:
Seeing that it was swamped, I was worried that getting great service would be hard to achieve, but that was not the case. From the moment I entered, the server was able to provide recommendations as well as answering questions about the menu. Once I got my meal, their staff was helpful in picking upany empty trays, and doing their best to keep the establishment clean and customer happy.

Quality:
Starting from the appetizer and leading into the entree, the food started amazing and only continued to get better. The boudin balls were amazing and literally full of flavor. The entree was a great amount of food for the price and the breading was great and really appreciate the recommendation of the twice baked red potatoes.

Fili’s Fave:
You will not be disappointed when I say to order the Boudin Balls.

Pretty good. Got the Big Mama and added a Dungeness Crab cluster, extra spicy. Had a slight kick. Wished it was a little more spicy, but it was good. I’m from Lafayette, Louisiana…Cajun Country…so don’t judge my taste buds. Crabs didn’t have much flavor, but the next day once it had soaked up some of the flavor and seasonings from the shrimp, they were very tasty!

Shrimp had a really good flavor! They were not too salty, like at Fiery Crab, where they confuse spice with extra salt. Some of the shrimp were a little harder to peel, but I didn’t care. I’m so happy I opted for the pound instead of the half pound. Not a big fan of the butter flavored oil. Fresh garlic and some melted butter would set this place off on the seafood side! However, the boiled shrimp with the remoulade sauce is a very good try! And it works whether the shrimp are hot or cold. It’s like the dip for boiled crawfish! If I’m ever in Victoria again, I will definitely be back!! Keep up the good work!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. It’s a weekly trip for me and my friends. Their crawfish are the absolute best and always seasoned perfectly. The fried seafood and steaks are the best around. Great customer service and atmosphere. Michael, the owner, personally visits with his customers at their table and is always about making their experience the best it can be. I recommend this place on a daily basis.

First time experience. Unfortunately, my meal was not enjoyable. The crab legs was served with visible dark growths on the shell (see photo), which was extremely off-putting and concerning. While I understand seafood can have natural imperfections, this should have been removed before serving. I was unable to eat it and it ruined the experience.

First time to this place and was not disappointed. They have a nice variety of things on the menu but the thing we got was boil in a bag. Shrimp ,potatoes ,corn, Sniw crab clusters. To me a lil pricey but we’ll worth it.

I ordered the seafood platter with red beans and rice, and every bite was a standout. The seafood was cooked to perfection—never overdone, which is crucial when it comes to shrimp. The shrimp and catfish fillets were plump, tender, and wonderfully moist, while the oysters were impressively large and indulgent. We ended the meal with a peach cobbler that easily ranks among the top three desserts I’ve ever had at a restaurant—warm, crunchy, buttery, rich, and utterly sinful in the best possible way.

The experience was elevated even further by the staff, who were incredibly friendly, accommodating, and welcoming. There was a genuine hometown feel to the service—warm, personal, and unpretentious—which made us feel right at home from start to finish and added an extra layer of comfort to an already memorable meal.

It was my husband’s and I first visit and we loved it! After ordering at the counter, we didn’t know what to expect. The alligator bites were awesome, the NY strip was cooked perfectly, the salmon was freaking amazing! With our sides of chicken and sausage gumbo, red beans and rice, Mac n cheese, and a salad, we were surprised that it all came out so fast and still all tasted amazing! Can’t wait to go again!

Food was great. I had the crawfish boil. Wife had the fried fish and cajun mac n cheese. We ate indoors, but will try outside next visit.
My only suggestion is, the margaritas need improvement. A litte too sweet and you don’t taste the liquor.

Great Cajun eats located right when you enter Victoria, Texas. Got the Cajun Mac and cheese, chicken and sausage gumbo, and Cajun fried chicken sandwich. Chicken was crispy and well seasoned, Mac and cheese had a ton of flavor and gumbo was good as well. Would definitely come back.
