Broadview Seafood

I'm giving 3 stars because I've been here before and maybe it was an off day. If today was my first time trying, this would definitely be a 2 star review. Very briefly--Snow crabs: delicious, sweet, tender, full, and moist. No weird residue. Just clean claw meat. Potatoes: 8/10. Soft but not overly cooked. Could've used a bit more seasoning but not bland. Corn: overcooked, mushy. I'm done with their corn. This is like my third time trying their corn and they're always over cooked.Crawfish: super disappointing this time around. Very bland. Not very moist. Chicken plate: an absolute NO. Fries tasted like they've been sitting under a heating lamp for days. Chicken seemed severely over cooked, refried too long, or under a lamp too long. I'll attach a photo. Hot sausage: same as chicken. Something went wrong! Overall, I think I'll leave Broadview alone for awhile. The previous time before was just okay after raving about them awhile back on here.

Oh my oh my these Turkey Necks are the bomb. It's one thing to say you come to New Orleans for fine cuisine but we are in a whole other ball park when you can find some good old fashion country food! The spice, the flavor the taste rolling around having a party in your mouth. We tried the fried Turkey wing just to see what that was about and it didn't disappoint. The seasoning appears to have been soaked for days! The flavor was on point. The combo bag is spicy, be warned. It doesn't ask what your spice level is so it better be ready!

I was looking for a no frills place to get crawfish on a recent trip to New Orleans. I wanted to go to J+J Seafood in Gretna, but it was closed. This place looked good to me as well and I'm glad I tried it. The place is definitely as no frills as it gets, so thanks to other Yelpers who identified that beforehand. It's a dingy place that has only two tables and is set up like a local deli. I actually called beforehand and the lady told me that the crawfish was $6 / lb. Wish I came here in years past when it was only $4 / lb, but I guess that's how things are in 2022. I ended up getting 3 lbs of crawfish ($18), and one order each of corn ($1.25) and potatoes ($1.25). Also got a bottle of soda ($2). Total came out to about $24.52. I've actually never had crawfish before so I was excited to try it. I also felt stupid because it was my first time. I watched some videos on eating crawfish and asked the lady there, who gave me some basic instructions. I think I got the basic hang of it. I wasn't sure how much to order but 3 lbs ended up being a huge amount. The bag of crawfish felt like it was never ending, which was great. I really liked the seasoning on the crawfish; it was mildly spicy and pretty flavorful IMO. There is so little meat in the crawfish though, so it's a lot of work for a small piece of meat and to suck the juices out of the head. The corn and potatoes were excellent IMO. The corn was nice and soft and the potatoes were a bit watery, but also had some solid flavor to them. It felt like it took me like 2 hours to finish my meal, but I definitely enjoyed my first crawfish experience. It seems that Broadview Seafood was good value for the amount of food I got. The people running the place seemed pretty nice and accomodating. FYI, watch out what clothes you wear when you go to eat crawfish. Because all my clothes smelled like it after I was done and the smell stayed in my hands for the rest of the day, lol. I'd give this place 4 stars overall.

Great food! Reasonable prices! The young man working the counter was very polite and helpful. A few tables to eat your deliciousness at, and a GREAT selection of Big Shot Soda, Red Crème is delicious, just don't look at the diabetes inducing carb count!

This place is a bit divey, but it's definitely a hidden gem. The crawfish boil and potatoes were seasoned to perfection. The fish poboy was very crispy and not to oily. A side of the garlic butter sauce is a must. Very fair prices too.

I don't know if it's the day, the season, or what, but these were the absolute best boiled crawfish I've had in the city in years. The size was incredible, the cost fair (3.99/pound) and I felt so welcomed by the owner. They offer fried seafood and even banh mi. I cannot wait to try more.

chicken was not cooked all the way staff replied that it couldn't be the entire 100 piece but who will eat any of it after opening up 4 pieces and they all was halfway cooked

The gumbo was watered down. The boiled turkey neck was bland with flavor only cayenne

I found out about this awesome seafood shop from a few friends! They usually rave about the Hot Sausage or Fried Shrimp Po Boys, so I just had to check them out. It's a small corner store on S Broad and you will have to find street parking around the area, but it is definitely worth it! When you walk in, there are two tables on the left side, a register in the middle, and a line of glass door fridges with beverages on the right. When it came to order, the lady was really friendly and treated everyone with utmost respect! I really feel like it's hard to mess up a Hot Sausage Po Boy, so I opted for their Fried Shrimp Po Boy for my first visit. I wanted to see how they made their Po Boys and what made them so special. When the food was ready, the order was announced through an overhead speaker and you can pick up through a window right out the kitchen. The food came out fast and hot! I unwrapped my Fried Shrimp Po Boy and instantly took a bite, something I never do because I always feel the need to take pictures of my food. I got excited because I saw that they used Hi Do French bread, my favorite French bread for Po Boys! The shrimps were average sized, not too small or too big. They were lightly battered, so I could taste the shrimp. There was the perfect amount of lettuce and mayo, so everything really went well with each other. I enjoyed every single bite I took out of the Po Boy and I understood why my friends were raving about it! I came here a second time to try out their boiled food items and wanted to show a friend the amazing Po Boy I had last time. The lady helped me out again for this visit and was nice as ever! I ordered a pound of boiled crawfish and their combo bag, which included two cut potatoes, a spicy sausage link, a boiled corn, a pig's foot, and long turkey neck. It was a really good deal for around 6-7 dollars! The boiled crawfish was delicious and had a good spicy kick to it. The potatoes and corn were the usual that you usually get at other places, but the corn wasn't boiled with the crawfish pot. I loved their pig feet, it was cooked perfected and had great flavor! The turkey neck was huge and I had to get a to go box to take home to eat later!Overall, this place is awesome and I definitely recommend everybody to make their way here to eat some good crawfish and Po Boys! The service is always friendly and prices are very affordable!

Best soft shell crab sandwich I've ever had. The whole order was fresh out the fryer when I got it, 12/10 would recommend
