Cajun Crab & Pho

I have no complaints for this place! Went today during lunch for the first time and loved it. Tried the hushpuppies and popcorn shrimp appetizers. Both tasted super fresh and came out hot and crispy! My mom got the lunch crawfish boil bag, Cajun flavor, medium heat. She's from Louisiana and said the spice level was good. I thought it was on the upper level of medium so spice lovers would be good with medium and above. We both feel like it was QUITE the authentic tic Cajun flavor we expected but the flavor was delicious anyway. Buttery and garlicky and the crawfish were fresh and not fishy at all. I got the rare steak pho and loved it. HUGE bowl of pho, with all the usual fixings (sprouts, Thai basil, and jalapeños), and usual sauces in the table. Really great broth for the pho. Ended up taking a lot home. The portions of everything were generous! The place is spacious and decorated in sort of a mix of seafood and Vietnamese vibe. The lady who greeted and sat us was super friendly and our waiter Sebastian answered all of our questions and brought out everything quickly. I will definitely be back! Super happy I finally tried out this place.

Even though this place is unassuming from the outside (located in a strip mall on a busy road), it seems to be a hidden gem for Vietnamese and Cajun! I'll admit, I was a little confused about the fusion too. It's not really a mixture of Cajun and pho; rather, there are distinct sides of the menu for each cuisine. They were PACKED on a Saturday night, with many waiting in the lobby with a number to be seated. This system seemed to work, as we probably waited less than 20 minutes despite being a few parties down the list. The atmosphere is definitely casual, with mostly nautical decor. There is a good amount of seating. They offer takeout as well, with a dedicated counter for that up front.Once seated, we ordered pretty quickly. I started with the fried spring rolls and had the rare steak pho for an entree. The spring rolls were crispy and fresh, with a tasty sauce as well. I also enjoyed my pho and had plenty for leftovers. The broth had a great flavor, and there was a good amount of noodle, veggies, and meat. I appreciate that there is a ton to choose from on the menu, whether you're in the mood for a seafood boil or pho. I can't speak to the quality of the seafood, but it definitely seemed to be popular with other patrons. Our server was a little awkward, but we still had prompt service. I only noticed that our drinks got a little low.

My shrimp pho was TASTY. Service with Kiara was spot on and she has a great singing voice. Ambiance was cozy and quiet .Go there if you want the total experience.

Great place! The food is always great. They have a good selection of pho and seafood boils. The portions are huge! You will not leave here hungry. The staff is always nice and will help you decide what flavor you want.

This is my go-to spot for Vietnamese food in Omaha. Inside, it's seafood-themed, as their seafood boil is the star of the show. I like getting their spicy noodle Hue-style soup (bun bo hue) . Their seafood boil is pretty good too! Our food got served pretty quickly. I haven't had a bad experience here yet and hoping it stays that way.

Amazing experience a Cajun Crab & Pho. Located in a crowded strip mall on Saddle Creek, it's an oasis inside. Unexpectedly calming.Ordered a seafood combo of crab, shrimp and sausage. Chose cajun hot. I was not expecting the puffy plastic bag it arrived in! The server was very friendly when I said it was my first visit, explained to me how the bib and gloves worked. I have enough Maryland chops to handle the crab legs. The spice level was just right. It was not too hot and I could probably handle extra hot, but have learned that when it comes to spice level, it's best to start on the mildly hot side and kick it up from there rather than just dive in to a big number because there's no telling how hot the latter might be.Everything was delicious. I'm already plotting my return.p.s. The restroom was sparkly. This is more significant to me than it used to be as I believe it reflects on unseen kitchen protocol as well.

Kind of embarrassing the amount of times I've came here, the seafood boil is so good here i crave it all the time. The prices are reasonable, service is usually fast and the servers are outgoing, and the restaurant is always clean. Besides the seafood boil, the pho is also fire af. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

The food is always amazing and the service was top notch! We went on Christmas Eve and it was decently busy but quiet enough to enjoy a good family meal. The music was great and was just an overall perfect Christmas meal! Will return many times!

I have been here twice and each time the customer service has been good the food comes out very quick and is hot when placed on the table. The restaurant is always clean and to my surprise the bathroom is fair. Now the food is pricey and not worth it to me but with not too many seafood places in Omaha this would come close to what I was looking for. we order the seafood boil mild spice, fried fish and chicken pho.

This place is nicely located in an area with lots of parking; from the outside it looks very nice and inviting. The ambiance was great and the customers seemed to be having a good experience.I had the pleasure of being served by a wonderful lady at the Cajun Crab. She was very helpful when making my order and gave extra attention to my special requests and she offered several suggestions. The restaurant is very spacious, clean and nicely decorated in the nautical decor.My order was to-go and I particularly appreciated the way that they individually packed everything securely so that I could combine at home for myself.I ordered the grilled porkchop plate and it was very tender and very tasty. Additionally, I also ordered the Rice paper rolls that were made with fresh vegetable shrimp and pork with a spicy fish sauce on the side. I love the simple, fresh and healthy treat and I thought it was a great accent to the rest of my meal.My favorite of this order was the #7. Bun Bo Hue - (no fish cake) Beef brisket, pork and lot of fixings to create the total Pho experience. It was the perfect level of spice that had a nice spicy kick but not overwhelming that I could not enjoy. I thought it had a little too much oil, but its okay because overall it was a wonderful dish that I would definitely return for and order again.Overall, I thought I was a great meal and each dish was prepared with great detail and everything tasted wonderful. I would definitely return to try more things on the menu.
