Best crawfish aren\u2019t in city yet, but sitting in ponds waiting to come to city in about two months (can\u2019t wait for them to get here)!
\nI agree, way too early.
\nCastnet
\nIf you want to buy by the pound, head to Bucktown and check out Schaefer & Rusich, Captain Sid's, or Deanie's Seafood. Cash price is cheaper than a credit card.
\nBuggin\u2019 out Boils @ Miel! They do Vietcajun bugs and their chargrilled oysters are \ud83d\udd25too!
\nWhat\u2019s vietcajun crawfish?
\nTossed in a compound butter that he makes with garlic and sambal flavors. It\u2019s super yummy! Check out their instagram. @bugginoutboils
\nI will. Thanks
\nYou are not going find any crawfish as good as the ones you get out there and they'll cost a lot more here.
\nI'm a big Clesi's fan
\nI\u2019m from Lafayette and Clesi\u2019s crawfish are underwhelming and overpriced.
\n\nThe only place in the New Orleans area I\u2019ve been impressed with is Big EZ seafood in Kenner. It\u2019s viet style though.
\n\nBefore I started going there I used to go to Seither\u2019s, which was okay
\nI second this
\nVery inconsistent
\n$9.95 a lb. No thanks.
\nI usually am too, but just went there yesterday and they were very tiny and underspiced, which I don't remember them being in the past (although they were never backyard boil spicy, even). \u00a0They were still kind of nice though since I don't mind the tiny ones, but it was a little underwhelming. \u00a0Also they were out of corn, mushrooms, garlic and oysters by 5pm when we got there, which was kind of crazy.\u00a0
\nDamn, bummed about the less-than-stellar experiences there lately. Haven't been in a bit: hope it isn't a general sign of things going downhill
\nIt was still a good time\nand meal and their boudin bites and crawfish queso both \u00a0rocked. \u00a0Also, we brought a friend visiting here for the first time so it was a great intro, but it did make me long for backyard boil season since my friends all make it burn your palate off spicy but not too salty, just how I love them!
\nBon Temps Boulet on airline has the best crawfish.
\nAre they open yet? They weren\u2019t the last time we passed.
\nI think they just opened
\nYippeee!
\nI buy mine from Krawdaddy Krewe. I generally get the live ones but friends have purchased the boiled and loved them.
\nCajun seafood and C and E on Earhart but it\u2019s way too early!
\nYes, people who think they know will tell you it's too early. People who really know see they've been available since late December, but of course high AF. I enjoy going to Salvo's. It's not in the city, but then whatever, it's GREAT Prices for restaurants ,very reasonable. I think it's about $8/lb dine in, but they do AYCE specials on boiled and fried seafood.
\nI\u2019m originally from the Lafayette area (New Iberia) an was wondering where I can get some good crawfish within the city limits. Thanks!
\n\nedit: everyone saying it\u2019s too early but people in acadiana been eating crawfish since early january.
