I went here on the 1st and ordered 3lbs of Crawfish and 1lb of head on Shrimp. Long story short.. The Crawfish were not clean. There was lots of grass and a few snails in them. Now I frequently go here because I be lazy and don't want to drive far. It don't take much to rinse them off get the grass out and extra creatures. I will not buy Crawfish from them again unless I'm shown that they are clean before I buy them. I had no problem with the Shrimp this time. Sometimes they are overcooked but they were on point. I'm highly disappointed because I don't play when it comes to my Crawfish.

There are so many better options than this place. The fried shrimp were way overdone and the hush puppies have no flavor. It also is not priced well considering it's attached to a grocery store and run by H-E-B, overall, this is a mess of a concept for H-E-B. I won't be coming back

So I felt like I just had to say something about my meal today since it's my first time at this restaurant, I literally just got done eating it lol, and when I say that was THEEE BEST! Fried Snapper I have had in an extremely long time smh lawd! It was good!! Seasoned so well and fried up nice and then drizzled with that delicious garlic sauce and my potatoes and corn were way as delicious the corn was so sweet and savory because of the sauce and the potatoes were perfect ugh! I thoroughly enjoyed this meal yall! I couldn't even get home with it after I tasted it in the car lmbo I turned right back and parked and ate my food in the car, one of the best car lunches ive ever had. I know the snapper is only for a limited time but I'm just gonna ask that y'all never stop selling it lol I will be back with friends and family to enjoy this fish again before it's gone!

Oh my gawd!! I avoided this place for a few months because I didn't know how it worked, I wasn't sure what exactly it was, and it just seemed overwhelming to an autistic person. Well! One day HEB was giving samples of the fried oysters. OMG to die for. So I asked how I could get a plate of them. The nice security guard walked me to the proper window and the counter guy helped me order. Then I had to walk to another window to get my meal and pay. I just left my full shopping basket by the side of the pay window and that didn't seem to be an issue. Nobody tried to steal my groceries. The downside is they are closed on Tuesday and Wednesday but all the other days they have a daily special as well as any menu items you want. Get the fried oyster basket. It's delicious!

My husband and I really enjoyed the crawfish and shrimp. Totally recommend the spicy! PROS: Good flavor, good prices!CONS: crawfish were fairly small, they need to wash them better, and we had a lot of claws. It's the beginning of the season so I'm not really complaining. Will definitely be back!

Stopped by to pick up some crawfish Togo and was happy with how fast their service was. Crawfish is currently $6.97/lb BUT if you order 5lbs or more, it will be $5.97/lb! It's the classic true Cajun boil flavor that you would get from cooking at home. For the price, I would honestly recommend others to come here for the quality you get from the price. Great value and the employees were really friendly!

I swear this is probably the truest to the Texas boil you'll ever find in Southwest Houston. The name says it all. True Texas Boil House is a super sized upgrade version of the old shrimp boil shack. Unless you shop at H-E-B every week, you won't know the annoying crawfish and shrimp boil pot on a greasy pad. The pungent fish boil juice burns my eyes every time I walk by or smelling in the downwind.Thanks to a recent remodeling of the entire Chinatown H-E-B. Everything is encapsulated in a metal box. Two exhaust vents atop of this roof still releasing the pleasant fragrance from the good old days plus more.The cashier jokes about how much he loves fried fish, fried shrimp and he wants to make shrimp fried rice. Since they have a kitchen, they've added hush puppies, garlic fries and other surprises coming up. My favorite is the fried whole tilapia basket. I've never seen fish that big existed in the supermarket. It took 2 people to finish the basket. I've heard crawfish are kind of small. So I skipped it and went straight to jumbo shrimp. I can't eat too much spicy seafood. I wish they had it mild.

The fish and shrimp combo basket is horrible the fish was undercooked and they only give you not even a filet just three small pieces strips of fish the shrimps was completely bread couldn't even see the shrimp and they only give you maybe five pieces of fries literally. Not even worth the price you pay just horrible!!!!
