This place is hit or miss. I've had crawfish from here and they are well seasoned. I usually order blue crabs. I am a crab fanatic and I have ordered from them many times. They had a worker named Jennifer and she was amazing. She knew me and my husband, by voice. I would call at least Once a week to get a doz of crabs and she would inform me if the catch was good or bad. I appreciated that, but now they just tell you a price and sell you whatever. I know now that I can't send me husband just to pick up, because they will sell you anything. This last time, I ordered a dozen of large crabs for $36. They gave me 12 of the smallest crabs. Smaller than my hand. Six only had 1 claw. 3 were empty. They were flavored well but I didn't get what I paid for. I called and spoke to the owner and he said that he sold over 200lbs that day and I was the only one to complain. He said that my husband picked them up and he shouldn't taken them if they weren't right. Well now, If I can't go with my husband to pick them up, and Jennifer no longer works there, I won't buy from them. I can't drive do to epilepsy, I was upset about that interaction because I was just telling my mother how good they were. Oh well, now I will consider Sals ( too expensive, but consistant) or Johnny's. I've never...
Read morewhen you round the bend of this part of lapalco blvd, you'll often see queues of cars and trucks on the side of the road. they may look abandoned, but they belong to hungry people lined up at a little shack of a building.
inside this hidden gem, you'll find friendly people selling some of the best tasting crawfish and fixings in the area. i've enjoyed their stuff several times. today, we got 4 lbs. of piping hot and huge crawfish, an order of corn, two small bags of potatoes, and an order of mushrooms for about $22. it was barely enough for 2 adults and 3 kids (13, 11, 3 yo). we'll get a bit more next time.
take note: they don't go easy on those who are spice sensitive. the non-crawfish stuff is actually more spicy than the crawfish. my kids can barely handle it (aka more for me!).
if you ask them how much should you order for your group or family, they'll adroitly ask: "are y'all from here?" they know that la natives can easily polish off 2-10+ lbs of crawfish per person depending on your appetite and/or girth.
they do take credit cards and if you can get them on the phone--call ahead with your order to save you a bit of time. very good stuff. we...

8/19/24 I did call 📞 when i got home about 6:30 or so. i told the young what the problem was. The young man said we're about to close. There's nothing I can do at this time. Do you have your receipt? I said no. I paid with cash, and you didn't give me a receipt with my change.and That was my fault he said I can't help you without one. I said okay thanks for your help. I didn't like the way I was handled he could have said, "Leave your number, and I will talk to my manager, and we'll see what we can do." I have no problem retracting my review. But I was mad I will continue to visit because it's...
