I've tried so many crawfish and seafood boil places. This is by far the best. We had the crablegs too. The pasta was awesome. We came hungry and left filled. B was a great server too. 20/10 would recommend Also the owners really make it a point to make you feel welcome. The cajun shack is an absolute experience to be had.

I’d give this place 6 stars if I could. My son’s mom is a crawfish connoisseur, so we’ve pretty much tried every crawfish spot from Galveston to Houston. Gotta say Cajun shack has been our favorite for years!
