Reel Seafood — Restaurant in Houston

Our party of 4 came around 6pm on a Sunday. It looked so busy. We waiting for 15 minutes probably. Luckily there's plenty of seating outside. We ordered food and it came fairly quickly. We had 2 pounds of Thai basil crawfish at 10.99/lb, 2 pounds of Cajun crawfish, and 12 lemon pepper battered shrimp.

If I could give 10 stars to the Thai basil crawfish, I would. Absolutely delicious. Savory, incredible flavors. I'm still salivating thinking about it hours later. If I had out of town friends coming in during the crawfish season, I would want them to try this flavor in addition to the quintessential Texas bbq.

My partner thought the Cajun crawfish was just alright. Later we tried the lemon pepper battered shrimp and it was so good, flavorful and crunchy! I was so happy and satisfied when I finished my meal. Can't wait to bring my parents here who haven't had crawfish.

They also have sinks in the corner of the restaurant for people to wash their hands. This is in addition to the regular restrooms sinks, kind of like Rudy's. All in all, fantastic place with some...

Very friendly service and decently priced menu I got shrimp, crawfish, and reel fries. The shrimp were huge and very filling! The crawfish could’ve been better but for $12 a pound they were decent. There was a mix of super tiny and decent sized crawfish. It was a little hard to peel as they were super soft but I didn’t mind too much. I got the garlic butter sauce and was super surprised at how sweet it was. I had to ask the server if there was sugar in the sauce because it was almost like candied crawfish but he informed me it was the orange juice! Super different and I think I would’ve enjoyed it more if I had gone in expecting a sweet boil but nonetheless it was tasty. I ordered a michelada which I’d never had before but since they didn’t have bloody Mary’s I thought it’d be close enough. It wasn’t really my taste but when the manager saw I didn’t drink much of it he took it off my tab without me asking which was really sweet. The staff and the cleanliness of the place was amazing. I would...

I came here last Saturday with my friends and family for the crawfish and it was absolutely amazing. I'm from Lousisana and I know my crawfish. Reel seafood is the real deal! They do vietnamese fusion style and I had had 5lbs for $35! What an absolute steal! Most places are $10/lbs and not even this good. I had Hot/Thai basil and it was delicious. The service was top notch, they provided bibs and gloves (if needed) and even came around to make sure we had everything we needed. The guy with the tattoos was exceptionally awesome, i'm not sure if he was the owner, but he came and offered us extra spicy dipping sauce on the side and was just very friendly and my whole group was very pleased with the experience. I was about to take them to China town, but i'm glad I didn't because this place is an absolute GEM! Thank you guys for serving us and I have to come back soon before the...
