Ate here due the location, and the exterior appeal. Â after already having a bad experience earlier in the day I decide to try the oyster bar near my room. Â The dads blue balls(fried mini crab cakes) were pretty good. Â The beer was sort of tepid and served in a warm mug. Â the good was my daughter had chicken tenders, and they were not frozen, but freshly prepared and pretty tasty. Â I ordered a ribeye and shrimp, the shrimp were horrible and the steak a gristly, chewy mess. Â place looks tired and needs a kick in the ass, the location is great!, the menu is weird, needs a streamline and get rid of the dusty old 90's clutter. Â unless this place makes changes ,I do not see it here too long! Â Not worth the money $90.00 2 pitchers of beer steak, sandwich and a ap.
Review Source:Awesome, awesome, awesome. This is only my 3rd yelp and the first 2 were to warn people about a shady establishment. However, my boyfriend and I just ate here and agreed that we had to share!! It's pretty hard to impress with a fried food platter but everything was AMAZING...hush puppies, conch fritters, lobster mac n cheese, grouper fingers, crab balls. Good music as well! Sit on the patio and ask for Jimmy!
Review Source:We had visited Crawdaddy's as a couple about 5 years ago and had a great experience. Â So much so when we returned this month for an extended family vacation, we took our party of 8 back there for dinner and an evening of drinks and karaoke. Â This experience was not so good. Â The food was fair but everything we ordered was spicy although the description in no way indicated it would be. Â Our appetizers were the highlight which tells the story. Â The service at our table was pretty good. Â The karaoke was the huge disappointment of the evening. Â The DJ was funny and entertaining but the way he catered to the locals and regulars was very frustrating. Â His regulars were called to the mic much more than us or any other "vacationers" which was at least half of the customer base that evening. Â He actually skipped over 4 of our requests for first time singers at our table until we got so frustrated waiting that we went up and called it to his attention that he was skipping people who hadn't had an opportunity to sing yet. Â Not a good way to treat people that come in and spends hundreds of dollars in one night (probably more than his regulars spend in two weeks. Â We won't go back. Â There is other karaoke dinner places within a block of this place and I recommend that you skip Crawdaddy's and try them. Â An add note, the bathrooms...disgusting.
Review Source:Looked great from the outside.... Fun atmosphere...great service. The food... Meh! I was dying for some oysters... Ordered the fried oyster dinner and BBQ oysters app. Boy we were so disappointed! For 14.99 I got 10 quarter sized blobs of fried breadcrumbs and what they siad were oysters? A tiny ramikin of red beans and rice and fried okra. Both were good but wanted more than 3 spoonfuls! Sorry but its a FAIL here! The 2 stars go to the waiter, he was nice and friendly. Everyone in our party left hungry and regreting we chose to eat here! The bill came to 170.00..for 5 adults and 4 kids...2 of the kids ate free! Oh one of the "free" kids meal consisted of 4 pieces of fried dime sized pieces of shrimp and 12 frend fries! What a disapointment!
Review Source:We went at about 830 on a Saturday night and had no wait. Our server was great and very attentive. The food isn't delicious, but it is really good. We had oysters and the low country boil (crawfish, shrimp, crab) and it was all great. I recommend sitting outside to people watch. Definitely a fun experience.
Review Source:We are in Gatlinburg for Christmas, and the restaurant was empty, but the food was good and we had okay service. The blue balls appetizer was a little heavy but had good flavor. Their version of tartar sauce was great..spicy! I had the fried grouper entree with sides of red beans and rice (waterey) and french fries (crisp and hot). The grouper was breaded with cornmeal and was heavy, plus a very large portion, so I only ate about half. My husband had a boiled platter with crab legs, sausage, shrimp, and crawdads, and said the spices were great, he loved his dinner. Only 3 stars because the atmosphere and service were sub, par. Probably wouldn't go back.
Review Source:The food here was typical of a bar. Nothing special. The kids enjoyed the alligator. The whole place wasnt very clean. The bathroom was a mess and in need of repairs in addition to cleaning. Â I cut my finger opening the lock on the bathroom stall because it wouldnt line up with the door right. The waitress was nice enough to find a bandaid for me. I wasn't impressed. I wouldn't go back.
Review Source:Always have the crawdads. Went 2 nights ago. Â Also had the Lobster Po boy sandwhich. It was good. Not what i expected but would get it again. It was lobster deep fried nuggets in a sandwhich. Â
Service was very poor. Sat on the deck as the waitress kept walking by and ignoring us. 15 min later, i finally acknowledged her to get some service. She sent a male waiter out. Not sure what the problem was but our table was the only outside table she wasnt waiting on. It was me and two kids. Â The male waiter never came back after we got our meal. I requested lemons for my crawdads twice, he never brought them or extra napkins.
Food is good, but dont expect great service.
When we arrived we noticed a stage with a karaoke machine. Â It looks like a fun spot to party at night so I'm sure it is much busier at night and I'm sure the wait is longer.
Fried green tomatoes, gumbo, and crab legs were good. Â This is a great place if you are in the mood for cajun food.
Disappointed!
I was really excited to go here but wouldn't go back. We went on 7/4/11 & we had an early dinner(maybe 4:30pm) to avoid the mad dinner rush. There was practically no one up there so we figured great timing, boy were we wrong. We got seated right away but the table was dirty, under the table was covered with food & the seats were ripped up badly?? We sat there at least 20mins before Jimmy asked if we had anyone stop by yet. I know southern states arent' as fast paced but when you see 4 waitresses pass you & the dont' bat an eye at you thats bad service! I even think the table behind us left for that very reason. We ordered a sample platter which was very skimpy for $16. The food was good but the prices were high & the portions were small. Â They also didnt plan very well because they were sold out of alot of specials due to the crowds for the holiday weekend. It was my husbands birthday and he was really angry 1/2 the dinner about it all. If it wasnt for Jimmy (or server) we would have walked out after our beer! Thank you Jimmy!
This place needs help & their website never works. It could be great but its not!
With so many great choices on the strip this was a bad one~should've gone to Dicks Last Resort! We heard all over the strip about the great food & service there~oh well, ya live & you learn!
I like it! Â You have to climb a narrow flight of stairs to get to the restaurant and bar, then we sat outside on the balcony , enjoying people-watching while we ate. Â The wait staff was very friendly and accommodating - we basically knew the life stories of two different waiters by the time we left. Â I had a nice burger and my boyfriend had a chicken salad (we are both on diets but he is better than I am at eating salads at every meal :-)) Â I thought my burger was great plus I substituted the french fries for a small corn-on-the-cob. Â The corn was cooked in some sort of seasoned water with a seasoned butter and it was really delicious. Â I'm pretty sure my boyfriend liked his salad, he did not complain but did not rave ether. Â I would recommend this place just because it is fun.
Review Source:Meh - I've experienced MUCH better. Â Our waiter and service was the high point...I believe his name was Johnny - and he was awesome.
First off, if you don't offer oysters, then don't advertise that you do. Â I get it with the recent oil spill, but cross them off your menu. Â
The crawfish were pretty bad. Â Our gator bites appetzier was good, but batter was overly salty.
My primerib was decent...Lobster mac and cheeze was kraft with a bite size piece of imitation lobster meat. Â
Martinis were soooooo weak. Â
Loved my garden salad!
All in all, after $80 for dinner, we were soooo unimpressed. Â We are Chicago food snobs, but this didn't have any redeeming qualities. Â
Sad really.
I'm ONLY commenting on bar/wait staff and DJ. We did NOT eat there.
The waiter that we had was absolutely AWESOME! He was very attentive and was working very hard since it was a Sat night and you could hardly move in there. We drank mostly shots and beer but we had a couple of mix drinks and they were made well. The shots were pretty big for shots and price was very average. If anything I was shocked that the price was much less than I expected.
The Karaoke was like any normal karaoke place. The DJ was pretty good at trying to keep the crowd happy. There were sooo many people there it was really hard to get everyone up to sing more than once.
The ONLY reason I gave this place a 4 was that I was NOT happy that children were allowed to be in there so late. There were many kids in there too. Anywhere from ages 6 - 14. We didn't leave until the place closed and some of those parents were leaving with their children at that time. I'm from NC and maybe the laws are different but children would NOT be allowed in a place like that after 10pm. Just a warning for those if you who would make a big deal about the kids. Its definitely a shocker to see that but never the less it was a good time. I would go there again for a good night out.
Also the bar closes at 1am every night. Last call is at 12:45 am.
The karaoke may have some of the best nashville dropouts I've ever heard! The beer is cheap and it stays open late. The good being out of the way lets get to bad..... Service was slow and the fact that its name is crawdaddy's I truly thought the crawfish would be good, I was very wrong. I had finally talked everyone into trying them in my group after about an hour of persuading. Cracked open the first one and it was ice cold. It also just tasted like a dirty shrimp. Needless to say I will not be eating there again, however I would drink there and listen to the music.
Review Source:Went here for dinner and drinks. Hubby got the gumbo which was no where near actual gumbo. It was kind of like Brunswick stew. He also got shrimp and grits appetizer and said it was different than what we have in Savannah but good. I got the grilled chicken with new potatoes and fried okra. The chicken breast was dry and had way too much seasoning on it. The potatoes were ok and the okra was frozen not home made but good. Drinks were weak and expensive. I can do without this place.
