We are boiled crawfish there and they were really good. Maybe a little too much spice on the outside, but overall good. The fried alligator was good too. Clarice was our waitress and she was very sweet and attentive! (In the “What do you recommend” section, there isn’t an option for boiled crawfish.

So my niece was visiting from Montana and she was craving a crawfish boil. Since it was her first time in Texas I had to do her right and we drove to Louisiana. Read some Google reviews and ended up here. We were no disappointed. For appetizers we had the crawfish fries and crab balls. Sorry I forgot to take pictures of the full portion because we were hungry. Lol. All four of us eat 5 lbs of crawfish, corn and potatoes. Make sure you get the crawfish dipping sauce.

We had great references, but our meal was so greasy I didn't finish mine.I dont think they bothered to let the grease drain before serving. The appetizers came out with our food and 1 order was wrong.

Great spice in the boil. Mix of crawfish with 50% large and more than expected field run but the flavor and service outweighs the quantity of small crawfish. I still give 5 stars for the overall experience.

We’d been told by two locals that we had to dine here. We are so glad we listened. We shared 3lbs of crawfish, .5lbs of shrimp, and crab. The girls ordered popcorn shrimp, and gumbo. The gumbo was creamy, meaty, rice, delicious. The popcorn shrimp was delicious, good-sized, and a lot came in the serving. The crawfish, shrimp, and crab were perfectly cooked. We would definitely go back for more if in the area again.

Awesome experience at BeauxDines'. The outdoor patio had a band, and it's a great atmosphere! The food was amazing! Highly recommend tourists get off the main drag and give this place a try! They serve a variety of beers.
It was just the type of place we needed passing through for the night!
Highly recommend for food, atmosphere, service, and entertainment!

The waitress was amazing! The burgers were not great but that's ok my kids loved the crayfish. I came to this location because online they had a bunch of options on the menu when we arrived your options were only burger or crayfish. So I thought that was super off. The atmosphere was great, I love the live band.

We went there multiple times last year and the boiled seafood was amazing. Something has changed. We went there on a Friday night and was immediately seated outside with live music. My husband and I ordered boiled shrimp with corn and potatoes while my teenagers ordered pulled pork sandwich and grilled chicken breast with fries. The food was brought out one plate at a time over the course of 40 minutes. The chicken came out first which was tough and her fries were cold. The pulled pork sandwich came out about 10 minutes later. It was literally store bought precooked pork. It was okay but, again, his fries were cold. Fast forward another 20 minutes and the shrimp came out. The cook time was spot-on as they were very easy to peel. However, they were VERY bland to the point of having almost no seasoning at all. It was honestly a really bad experience. For the price, we could have went down the road to a competitor for much better food and service. As a side note, the waitress was very sweet and was continually apologizing for the poor service. We left a good tip because she was doing everything she could to take care of us but the kitchen obviously has issues.

My wife and I decided to try this place out. It’s Good Friday, and we wanted some crawfish. This place is great. The crawfish and shrimp were great. And the jacked up fries were awesome. Also, our server was phenomenal, shout out to Taylor! We will definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend checking this place out. (A little Lagniappe, they have beer buckets, and a live band. Can’t go wrong!)
