Wow, what a find! Delicious Lao flavored crawfish, they do offer the traditional Cajun spice but the house Lao Spice hit the mark! Crawfish size was awesome, Gumbo was hearty and flavorful, we ended up soaking all of the crawfish sauce ...

Ive had crawfish from many places and cooked them myself plenty but there is something incredibly satisfying about the sauce they use at Crawfish King. They also sell it separately so you can partake at other crawfish boils if you should ...

Excellent crawfish! The sauce was flavorful but not overly heavy or salty, and the crawfish itself was boiled with excellent seasonings!
