Favorite Cajun Restaurants in Houston

I give each place 3.5 stars out of 5. Or 7/10.

 

Of the ones you listed, I think Pappadeaux is the best overall

 

Just tried Bayou City Seafood recently and it was awesome. I've only been there once but I'm looking forward to going back. Check it out: http://www.yelp.com/biz/bayou-city-seafood-and-pasta-houston

 

Someone quick, ask Cousin Brucie!

 

Bayou City Seafood on Richmond @ 610 is pretty good, too.

 

Is Pete's (pronounced pay-tay's) Cajun BBQ still open on old HW3 near Webster?

 

I ate Razoo's today... who knows that place in College Station? Its a small shack on University close to campus. Literally its nothing but a shack. I never tried it until like my last week there and it blew me away. Some of the best food I have ever had. That place is insanity.

I loved Babin's when I ate there several years ago.

 

"The plan was expected to receive routine council approval until it was reported that the restaurant operator was still serving deferred-adjudication probation for molesting a minor. Todd dropped the proposal."

He still has his show on KPFT, they dont care.

 

Wow, interesting read. Thank you, Southern Select (SamFisher).

 

Probably the only worth while anything in Greenspoint is Cajun Town. For the price, it is really good.

 

absolutely, and i really don't think there's a close second.

i love ragin cajun because it's easy...but its prices aren't much better than pappadeaux, frankly.

 

Hebert's, it's incredible and a hell of a lot cheaper than Crazy Cajun

Crazy Cajun and Happy Cajun are gone now, right?

And is there anyplace good in the bay area?

 

Pappadeaux is really good, but it's pretty mainstream. Treebeards and Bayou City are really good too.

Rajin Cajun used to be the most authentic, but they've really gone commercial.

I think Zydeco downtown has 'em beat now.

Crescent City Beignets has good gumbo.

Cajun Town over by Gunspoint has some good items. Their gumbo is pretty bad though.

Rajin Cajun used to be awesome, but they have really tailed off over the past few years.

Razoos is solid but unspectacular. Their gator is good.

Pappadeaux is just good. Really everything on the menu tastes good, but none of it is going to have you leaving feeling like you just ate some awesome CAJUN food.

 

Mama Assumptions Cajun Bar & Grill was legit! That was authentic, but I think they closed down. Food was probably too real (greasy)

 

I just went to the one on Little York last week for the first time. Great stuff.
