Very good selection! The fried mushrooms I could've done without, tasted jarred then fried. The boudin balls are amazing along with everything else. The pickled green tomatoes were so good and a new taste for us. Alligator and frog legs were....yummy!

Food was delicious. I ordered the seafood sampler. Everything was so good. Especially the pickles on the side. Fish was hot and fresh. The stuffed shrimp were good also. The beignets were light, fluffy, and golden brown. Will visit here again when in Shreveport.

Stand-alone restaurant with limited parking during busy times. Restaurant and restrooms were clean and good order. Wait staff was very very friendly helpful and attentive. For appetizers the boudin balls were excellent. Our entrees are also very good. Highly recommend.

We were in Shreveport for my daughter’s dr appt. So before we left, we googled places nearby to eat. This was the 2nd restaurant on the list and the pics looked good so we went. The atmosphere takes you back to a down south New Orleans feel! The music made you want to get up and dance! It took a minute for us to get a seat because Lindsey wasn’t at the hostess stand, but when we sat down, the waitress came right over. We ordered a little bit of everything and everything was DELICIOUS! The drinks were STRING but good! I left there miserable because I was stuffed! It’s definitely a place that we will stop at again when we go back to Shreveport.

I have refused to eat gumbo and jambalaya until I was able to eat it first in Louisiana. I have traveled a great deal around the world, but wasn't able to get to LA until a week ago. I was traveling from NC to TX and made sure I was going to be rolling through LA during lunch time. Because of the hurricane just coming through, I decided to avoid southern LA but I was still going to go through Shreveport. I actually chose a different place in the city that was super well rated and popular, but they were serving a Sunday brunch menu that had had no traditional Cajun food, so back to the drawing board. A few minutes on google and I settled on Crawdaddy's. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very "southern home cooking" style. I ordered a cup of gumbo and a cup of jambalaya. While waiting for my food, I was still scooping out the menu and decided to add a shrimp and grits as well. The shrimp and grits came out first. I've had this dish here in NC and while it was my favorite I've ever had (call that a 10), this was a 9.5. The gumbo came out next with a side of rice and saltine crackers. So, as I mentioned before I've never had gumbo before, but I have been in the "food biz" for a long time and has seen countless gumbos throughout my day on TV and the web. Of course, every recipe of everything is always going to be different. This gumbo was thinner than I expected, but it has a nice flavor, chicken, sausage and other ingredients in it. It had some nice heat to it, but not overwhelming. Being my first, I will rate this a 7. It wasn't what I was expecting/hoping The jambalaya was last and CERTAINLY now least. Came out w/ saltines as well and some green onion on top. This dish is full of tons of flavor. I was already super full so I had about 3 bites and got a to go container and ate it while I was driving through Texas. 10/10!!! I will be driving through again in about a month and this is a scheduled stop.

My sister, her husband and myself went there and we had an Ahhhhmazing time!!! Wow! Excellent Service and The food was absolutely great! Although the drinks we had were not very tasty... The food was amazing! As food critics we were happy and we definitely will return! 🙂

This was my first time trying Crawdaddy’s and I’m glad I did. I stopped by during lunch when they were not too busy. My to go order was ready within 15 minutes and was hot and fresh. I ordered the large fried fish plate with fries and hush puppies and the crawfish etouffe. Everything was perfectly seasoned and very filling. The to go server was kind and ensured I had all the condiments I needed with my order.

You have to stop here!!!!! Everything we ordered was delicious and fresh! The crew knows how to cook, the service is friendly and the atmosphere is fun! Sorry we couldn't wait to take pictures because we were hungry. Update: Had to come back and update the pictures. It's so hard to snap before eating because that's how good the food is. Heather was our amazing waitress this last time. Thank you!

Stopped by here traveling through Shreveport on the recommendation of a friend. Really liked the muffaletta, the meas were warm and I know there's a debate but that's the way I prefer it. Their cheesesteak was absolutely amazing, and so was their fried shrimp and French fries. But their Cajun swamp fries were amazing! They were so good that we cleared the plate and didn't get to take a picture. Service was excellent and atmosphere was friendly. Definitely recommend.

This place was AWESOME. Don't get the large portions unless you are ready to throw down! Crab cakes, Large fish plate, chicken Monica pasta and Crawfish Étouffée!

We debated between four and five stars. We decided on five. The only complaint: for a Cajun restaurant, none of the Cajun dishes were particularly spicy. Everything was tasty, but lacking in Cajun spice. That's being said, no one was disappointed with their food either. This includes my eighty-seven year-old mother, who is a native of New Orleans. Crawdaddy's bread looks like garlic bread, but it's absolutely unique... I've never tasted anything quite like it... Most everything we ordered was very good Driving across country, we look for unique places and this was one that we found. . . It wasn't too horribly far from interstate 20. . . And we were definitely happy! The service was truly astounding... Much better than expected! I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

Wow. Great food. Great service. Appetizers of Boudin Balls and Fried Gator. Then a mountain of crawfish and shrimp. Bowls of jambalaya. Topped off with cooked to perfection beignets. Souvenir selection was good also. A must stop if you want great food in Shreveport

Delicious! First time dining. Stopped by on the way back from New Orleans. So glad we picked this spot. Staff was friendly and accommodating of our party of 10. Very good food. Beignets were hot and fresh. I will drive back to Shreveport just for those 🤤. The fried green tomatoes...🤤. The tomato relish stuff(not sure of the exact name)...🤤. Yummy yummy. The crab cakes were not all that. The inside was alright but I could not get past the breading. The Patron Margaritas... Oh yeah! The alligator was good too. Overall very happy with my visit. Would definitely go back Oh and the bathroom was clean.

Drove from Nacogdoches to eat here. Oh me gee, this place is true cajun food. Well worth the drive. We had Dat Shrimp, Crawfish, Shrimp Poboy, pistolettes, and crawfish cornbread and peel shrimp.

Busy blue collar seafood restaurant with quick service and great food! Server was attentive and friendly. Even though the restaurant was busy on a Saturday night, the meal was delivered quickly and correctly. The etoufee was spicy and portioned for two meals. The crawfish cornbread was unique and delicious. The catfish was solid. The star was the onion rings made from scratch!

The small 4 piece fish plate is what I ordered. The fish is good. The option of not having something other than fries is disappointing. Below is the thimble of slaw. The 1/4 cup of peach cobbler for $10 is a joke. The cobble did not cover the bottom of the container. Do not WASTE YOUR MONEY ON DESERT. You will be frustrated with the desert purchase. Had moderate expectations after reading reviews. I am over disappointed. I did not think to take pictures prior was hungry & ready for the meal.

This is actually my first time here and it was absolutely the best service I've had in a long time. From the ambience to the waiter Ms. Becky who made sure we were taken care of from the moment we entered the door, I must say this is a must eat ! I had the small fish combo which came with fries and 3 hushpuppies and my partner had the 3 1/2 lb crayfish platter which he demolished! The service was quick, the food came out quick and it was HOT! I'm really impressed with this place! Thank you so much Ms. Becky for your wonderful customer service!!

The food tastes so good, the atmosphere is beautiful and the service is amazing. There is also a beautiful mural at the entrance for pictures.

The food was awesome. Crawfish etouffe, Shrimp Monica, garlic shrimp appetizer was all really good. And obviously a favorite for locals because almost everyone was on a first name basis with the staff. That should be your first sign. The crowd was pouring in even for a Monday night. Our server was also the bartender and she kept up with everyone like a pro.

The collard greens and chicken egg roll are worth the trip. Excellent food with hardy portions. Highly recommended.

Stopped here heading back home from New Orleans. Got the chicken tacos and pasta the food was okay got cold really fast could have been hotter. Other then that it was good water tasted like dirt

Ordered ToGo... Girl who took my order was knowledgeable Everything was Delicious, with the exception of the red beans. I did not like that. I tasted, but didn't eat...offered to me daughter, she declined them as well. The rice was cooked with precision! Very enjoyable... hey, what can I say, I love rice! 🍚 The red beans and rice to me were over priced ($8 WOULD HAVE BEEN FAIR, AS OPPOSED TO, I BELIEVE, $13)...as well as the pistolettes were over priced, as they did not have enough etoufee in the middle! 😤 however, the breading of the pistolettes was AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! The crawfish pie was delicious! The crab cakes were amazing! Especially when dipped in the remoulade... the grits appetizer! Man O man...I could eat that everyday! Especially if I had the sweet crawfish cornbread to go with it! They both were AWESOME for my palate! The crab cakes weren't too shabby either! 🤤 🤤 🤤 😋...I went in expecting to spend$45 on a few appetizers, but instead it came out to be just over $60...😤 but nonetheless, THE FOOD WAS GOOD, AND ID DO IT AGAIN, WHENEVER I REVISIT! 😋

I had a Boudin egg roll appetizer that was very good. Then the fried sampler lunch which was catfish & shrimp with French fried potatoes. The shrimp was very good, but the fried potatoes were overcooked. The catfish was also over cooked plus the fish fry seasoning was almost too salty to eat. The service was excellent! The waitress was friendly, efficient, & attentive. The atmosphere had a distinct country Cajun vibe.

Food is okay, service and environment is great. Boudin balls were too greasy and I do not recommend the shrimp n grits, it's just I have had the best shrimp n grits in my life at Orlandeaux's Cafe in Shreveport, which is a true 5 Star restaurant.

The food was amazing. The 15 min drive from the hotel to this diner was extremely worth it. The fries tasted amazing and the crawfish etouffe that I had was awesome. I wish it was a tad bit spicier but overall, it was delicious. My buddy has the crawfish supreme with the cornbread and he was amazed by it. Very awesome spot.

Where do I start. The service was exceptional. Seated right away and the server was friendly and on top of things. The frog leg platter was outstanding and my husband had the oyster platter, he loved it. We will make this our regular stop when we are in town

This place deserves beyond 5 stars! Literally everything on the menu is spectacular! Louisiana cooking baby! Top favorite in town. Fried catfish with ettoufee on top! Bread pudding yes, yes! Seafood tacos...just buy the whole damn menu...don't forget beignets!

We weren't sure what to expect, but the food turned out really good. The waitress was nice, but never asked if we wanted drink refills or anything like that. Service was good, but definitely could have been a little better. The atmosphere was great, very casual, and comfortable, and the place was clean. Eventhough the place was pretty full, it wasn't noisy or uncomfortable. My husband ordered crawfish etouffee, I had grilled shrimp tacos with seasoned potatoes, we tried their fried green tomatoes (excellent and you get a good bit), then for dessert I got the bread pudding. The bread pudding was meh. The fried green tomatoes and the rest of the meal were pretty good. The seasoned potatoes were excellent! Price wise, I guess you'd say it's average. I think the food portion of our tab was around $60 + tax & fees. Negative, we used our debit card and they charge you a surcharge for using a card; it's 4% of your total. It's not substantial, but I'm not a fan of the business expecting the customer to pay a card fee.
