Bayou Cat Restaurant

They never disappoint when it comes to crawfish and blue crabs. The place was packed as always no sitting room. Service was fast so it wasn't too long of a wait. I really wanted catfish steak I ordered and I got a fillet instead next time I will check my order before leaving. Otherwise everything was delicious.

Called for a pick up order, it's my first time eating from this establishment, my family has dined here plenty of times especially for their lunch specials.The catfish was crispy and never got soggy - I like that it was clean and didn't have the river water taste. The fries were not good to any standard, however the hush puppies made up for it.I also got the frog legs which were plump and juicy, but there was no wow factor in the flavor.The turkey neck was good and had some flavor.Then the dessert was a chocolate cake that was moist and rich.

Hands down the #1 place in Dallas to get Crawfish during crawfish season!From the perfect price to the taste to the size and portion.(don't forget to ask for extra juice in the bag)I tried there other food recently and I have to say it was bomb 2.Staff is helpful and made me laugh. place during crawfish season is super crowded but during regular weekdays its not that busy. the place is flat screen tv's with a pretty good music selection playing in the background.

I waited in line 30 minutes for this crawfish and let me just say it was worth it. This is coming from a Louisiana native. For starters, I really enjoyed the red beans. They were seasoned so well & tasted like home. The crawfish were the best you're going to get in Dallas. Not too spicy but seasoned just enough to enjoy. The shrimp were cooked perfect and were a nice size. Everything really was good. I paid about $60 bucks for all this food which to me was worth it. The cracklings were even tasty. The only thing I didn't like was how unstructured the whole atmosphere was. Nonetheless, the food was banging.

The place is a must for crawfish. The lines will be long and the ambiance is not what people come here for. It's the seafood. Especially the crawfish. The staff is friendly. If you are getting anything fried or from the kitchen, the wait is usually long. The boil food is quicker because they are pulling from coolers and warming stations. It's BYOB. However, you can buy soft drinks (Big Shots)if desired, or Coke fountain drinks. The place has a Louisiana swag. At times, you can purchase King Cakes, pickled pig lips, pecan candy, and boudin is regular on the menu. A good hole in a wall is the best way to describe here with a powerful punch on the taste buds that keep seafood lovers coming back for more. They are closed on Sundays and stay open until 8:00 p.m. daily.Wednesdays the owner usually surprise their customers with hump day specials. Do yourself and try them out.

Great place! Do stop by and enjoy some great New Orleans food! Family and large group are accommodating (open seating), a bit loud on weekends but still a nice place to sit and enjoy!

So the price of crawfish are coming down but their size are getting better. I personally like the size for today, big enough I don't have to scrape for the meat and not too large I might break mah nails along w mah skin They're fresh! They're juicy! They're yummilicious!!!The lunch special is just as special for $7.49z the menu said two pieces of catfish filet but they always give you xtra!

This is THE BEST seafood Arlington/DFW has to offer! Being from NOLA I know good seafood and Bayou Cat is Always Consistent in flavor and freshness. The service is always quick and the wait is never long even when the place is packed tight. It's always clean and there's always a vibe. 10 out of 10, definitely recommended

This place wasn't too bad. Good traditional crawfish. I would ask for it spicy next time with hopes that it would give it more flavor. The fried okra (hard) was really good and the catfish was crispy. It wasn't super special but it was above average considering that this is not a city known for its seafood.

The best customer service I have ever experienced. I come here at least once a week and have never been disappointed. Today, they went WELL above and beyond to make a customer happy. They don't know who I am, I am no one special, but today I feel like royalty. I will continue to preach high praises of this place. You are truly amazing!! 10/10 every time.
