“ Decide to try this place after many recommendations. Ordered the gumbo to go, had great flavor. Staff was friendly and place was clean. Will have to go back. ”
“ I've been seeing so many talks about this place on TikTok, so I finally made my way out there to try them out. I went during lunchtime, there was quite a few people in there already. It wasn't crowded but more than what I was expecting. I ordered my food to go since they did not have public Wi-Fi. This isn't a deal breaker but it would have been nice to have my work computer on while I devour crawfish. lol I ordered 4 pounds of crawfish . They had a special buy 3 pounds of crawfish get two potatoes one corn. I asked for my crawfish to have no garlic, just plain Cajun crawfish. However, when I receive my order, they still had garlic in the crawfish. I did order a side of the garlic butter. I wasn't expecting the garlic butter to look how it did, but it wasn't terrible. Overall, the food was great and I would order from them again and hopefully get my true order . I would opt out of the garlic butter and probably get the regular butter. The corn and potatoes were great. I definitely will put them on my list of crawfish places to go ! ”
“ The food was great. I got the chargrilled oysters and seafood soup. And the group also got some fried fish and crawfish tails which I think they enjoyed. The micheladas were good too. It was in the evening when we went and there were tv screens and lighted signs but it felt pretty dim inside. Maybe that is how the atmosphere was suppose to be like. My boyfriend kept getting drops of water on him I think from the AC vent. He had to move a couple times but it was okay afterwards. ”
“ Great food, got that spicy kick that I love. We work across the street from them at Smoke station and we eat here often, and we get customers from Mike seafood all the time and everyone has great feedback. 10/10 would recommend! Mike seafood www.smokestationhtx.com ”
“ New year. Same seafood craving same spot same satisfying experience. If your styrofoam box is. Not bending as you carry it your local seafood fry is ripping you off. I always get the 3 fish 3 shrimp 3 oyster combo with fries or rice and I never leave disappointed. Their tartar sauce and cocktail sauce idk if it's homemade but it's always in sauce cups and no other retail tartar sauce has come close to it. My go to seafood fry spot! ”
“ Countless dollars... countless pounds... wasted... relentlessly searching for the best of the best this crawfish season. Only to finally discover Mike's Seafood at the very TAIL end. I'm chuckling and crying at the same time. Typical Viet-Cajun style will always hold a place in my heart, but sometimes you need more than messy sauce on the outside of unseasoned crawfish. The flavor of Mike's crawfish is seasoned through and through into the meat. Instead of a million sauce options, you select your spice level, with/without garlic butter - proving that sometimes less is more. At $6.99/lb, their prices are the nearly half of their competitors' but with twice the flavor. They're also not nickel-and-diming on the butter/limes/Cajun seasoning. The staff is very nice. The food comes out piping hot and fast. After enjoying both takeout and dining in, I would opt to eat Mike's incredible crawfish at the house since the restaurant is a bit warmer than I like. Aside from the food being stupid good, I love supporting Mike's Seafood because I respect the owner. Mike is a local legend - putting in hard work since 2003, he started in a food truck and now has 3 brick-and-mortar locations. 2024 was the saddest crawfish season I've seen in a long time. Low supplies and high prices hurt hungry pockets and even shuttered some businesses... but Mike's thrived (and for good reason)! It's gonna be a long year between now and the 2025 crawfish season, but until then, I'll hold a spot in my stomach for Mike's Seafood. ”
“ Everything was really delicious Shrimp 10/10 Grilled oysters 10/10 A little hole in the wall place, but it's good. ”
“ I finally went to Mike's Seafood after a very long time, while visiting Houston. The food is still awesome, the way I left it. I ordered the three piece catfish meal with french fries, and since it was a weekend, I went ahead and ordered a waffle by itself. They have wings n waffle dish on weekends. The fish was delicious. Seasoned to perfection and perfectly coated. The french fries were delicious. Golden, crisp and tasty. I had their waffle for the first time and it was very good. Came with powdered sugar n maple syrup. My belly was a whopping balloon, by the time I was finished with my meal. Restaurant was quite full and the music was jamming. Great vibes n beats. It's counter service to order. I'll be back soon. ”
