Where to Get Crawfish in Houston: Cajun Kitchen

Cajun Kitchen has been a Houston staple for almost 20 years (since 2005!), serving up some of the tastiest Viet Cajun food and crawfish that has been recognized on various publications, including Forbes and Food & Wine, and TV shows like ‘Mind of a Chef and Eater’! March is the start of the best months to enjoy crawfish, and here's where to go for your fix!

Cajun Kitchen cooks their crawfish in a Cajun boil plus you can add one of three different sauces — Garlic Butter, The Kitchen Special, and Thai Basil — for that extra kick of flavor. And let me tell y’all, their crawfish is SO delicious. Try The Kitchen Special first. I’m salivating just thinking about it again!

Other delicious options we tried include Chili Butter Sauce Maine Razor Clams, Garlic Noodles with Colossal Lump Crab, Grilled Oysters “Vietnam”, and East Coast Oysters “Thailand”, and Japanese Scallops Grilled with Caramelized Onion Sauce and Wasabi Caviar. You’ll also find Daily Asian Seafood Street Specials like scallops, mussels, various clams, and escargot!

Happy Hour is 3-6pm Monday-Friday and features specials on oysters on the half shell, jumbo shrimp, jumbo blue crabs, wings, colossal crab garlic noodles, and alcoholic drinks!
