Absolutely delicious! We ordered snow crab, crawfish, shrimp fried rice, and fried catfish! All of it was devoured. The waitress and everyone behind the counter were so kind. Can't wait to go back.

Visiting from Atlanta! That was the worst Crab Boil I had ever eaten. My blue crab was not done, meat was very smooshy and it had a loud old seafood smell. Fresh seafood shouldn't smell like that. Never Again

The food is super good. I loved the thai tea, little pricy but large portions so its worth it! The sweet potato fries were amazing! The waitress lady was super sweet even when my kid spilled soda all over the floor. 10/10

Food was good but could use more seasoning on your broils. Lemon pepper broil tasted watered down, couldn't taste the lemon pepper. Fried shrimp was a bit dry too. Price for food was good. It's worth a try anyway

Wow!!!! Is all I can say about the food at 88!!!! This has been the closest to New Orleans style crawfish boil, that I have ever tasted in Houston!!! I grew up, until 8 yrs old in New Orleans, and Baton Rouge, La. I felt like a kid again! The juice was so yummy!!!!!! #Hooked!!!

Wow! I always pass this place up honestly because its not too aesthetically pleasing from the outside. But BABY! When they say dont judge a book by its cover. BEST crawfish in the city hands down ! Ive tried many crawfish & 88 boiling takes the cake with the FLAVOUR. I had the house special medium spicy & is a little upset i didnt order more :/ im here dipping my baby’s french fried in the sauce. Haha the Boudin is REALLY good too! Looking forward to trying mote items on the menu.

*** June 2022. Have come back here a few times this year and ALWAYS large size crawfish. Big n juicy! You get 5 stars for being consistant. This is my #2 spot for crawfish.
We do the drive thru sometimes because this place gets busy full.
**2020** My first time here. Small place had to wait for a table. $8.99 lb average price. But the crawfish were all large. Wow!! My friend and i ordered a few pounds of flavors at different times throughout our meal and they were all large even found a few monsters!! Im coming back next week just to double check to make sure this wasn't a lucky day! They even have a drive through window!! The nice owner/manager takes a lot of pride in his restaurant. He took the time to speak with my friend and i as we were leaving. We both said YES we are coming back!

I thought it was ok, my wife and daughter on the other hand enjoyed themselves.

Place is a little small, and service is a bit lackluster, because I only saw two servers, and the place was busy. Food more than makes up for it, which explains the crowd. They really should hire one or two more servers.
Recommendations:
Crawfish with House mix sauce, XXX spicy
Mussels with House mix sauce, XXX spicy
Boudain Balls
Tried raw gulf oysters, which were good size, but they are gulf oysters after all. If you like gulf oysters, then get them. If you are trying oysters for the first time, this is where I'd start.

The flavor "88" mild spicy on top of the crawfish (everything) was amazing! Had a little kick to it but enough to enjoy our meal. I recommend getting that flavor! The size of the crawfish were ok, the potatoes were very soft and delicious, the corn was good and size of the shrimp was amazing. Oh and the King Crab legs them suckers were huge and delicious!! I recommend this place to anyone!
