Crawfish!! Thai Basil was recommended. It was excellent! Nice atmosphere with easy listening music. Great family place.
Excellent food! The best soft shell crab I have ever had. The grilled squid was also very good.
This is a nice seafood spot located in Katy. When you walk in, the restaurant is set up just like a seafood place. I didn't particularly enjoy the oysters but the highlight was the seafood pasta. The pasta had a variety of seafood and it wasn't overly heavy. The crab fried rice was also okay, it was a little bit on the saltier side but it wasn't bad. The employees are great and will help you with any questions.
My favorite Vietnamese iced coffee in Houston uniquely different. Seafood is great and service well attended.
This was our first time here. The food was soo good. The garlic noodles!!!!!!!! Yes, yes and hell yes!! It was on a Tuesday right after a storm, so it was not busy. The owner personally took our order. The boil was delicious, with flavor. We got half cheese (which was more in the sweet side) and half special sauce.
We went here because we craved oysters and they surely hit the spot. They came with a homemade lime and Thai chili sauce that was spectacular. $16.99 for a dozen crawfish is a steal! We enjoyed the Quail though they were small, but had fantastic flavor. The Seafood Garlic Noodles were pretty good as well but didn't offer much seafood. We tried an Appetizer Sampler of Chicken Nuggets, Fried Calamari, and Sweet Potato Fries. The fries were great but I wouldn't recommend the Calamari.
Had a hankering for crabs so we picked up (wish I ate there instead) some snow crab and dungeness both with the lemon pepper and also the cajun special sauce. Everything smelled and tasted incredible! The snow crab was very fresh and cracked and peeled easily. Both sauces penetrated the the meat with lots of buttery garlic goodness. The Dungeness crab was fresh but the shells were tougher and the meat didn't pull as easy. The ladies cooking the food and running the restaurant were happy, kind and personable. Restaurant was small and clean and had lots of parking.
I've been here twice now. My first visit convinced me I'd be a loyal customer for life, but my second visit wasn't as great. I had razor clams, sweet snails, scallops, oysters, and soft shell crab on my first visit, and loved everything! This visit made me fall in love with razor clams lol so when I came back, I got two orders of it in two different flavors all to myself. One of them was good and normal, while the other one was...gritty. I thought the first one was a fluke, but after having five in a row that were like that, I knew it was the whole plate. But the other plate was fine, so idk how that happened. It was really disappointing because my first visit had me grinning from ear to ear. I'm really hoping it was a one-time thing because I still love those razor clams and don't know where else to get them. Aside from that one dish, everything here has been spectacular. So great that this was potentially my newest favorite restaurant, at least in terms of seafood. SWEET SNAIL W/ SALTED GREEN PEPPER: Not my favorite snail because it breaks easily. The flavor was good, but not my favorite of the night. My parents loved it though. They ordered a second plate. RAZOR CLAM (THAI BASIL): I loved the chewy, meaty texture! And I loved the rich flavor! My favorite dish of the night! RAZOR CLAM (GARLIC BUTTER): The flavor reminded me exactly of crawfish. It was good, but I preferred the Thai basil. GRILLED LARGE BLOOD CLAM: Delicious toppings! The clams were very chewy, some might think too chewy, but I still enjoyed it. SALTED PEPPER SOFT SHELL CRAB: Delicious! Great crispy texture! Great flavor! Super fresh! Really good size too! One of the best soft shell crabs I've ever gotten! Must try! RAW OYSTERS: Huge, plump, and super fresh! The green jalapeño sauce was really good too, even though I usually don't like jalapeño. I'm kinda obsessed with it lol GRILLED OYSTERS W/ SCALLION OIL and W/CHEESE: We split a dozen between the two flavors. Again, huge, plump, and fresh! So tasty! I usually don't like grilled oysters, but this is the first time I loved it! GRILLED SCALLOPS W/ QUAIL EGGS: Good, but I would personally prefer it without the egg. I think my table liked it with it though. CALAMARI RINGS: Huge, thick, and very chewy. Honestly too chewy. Probably won't get again. CRAB GARLIC NOODLE: Tasty! Good portion size and amount of crab.
