My daughter and I couldn't decide where to go for dinner, and we're happy we decided to eat at the Crazy Cajun. They had a location to wait while you are waiting for your table. They served wine and beer in the waiting area Cash only. When we sat down, we chose the Hungry Cajun, red beans and rice, and the shrimp gumbo. We weren't disappointed! The crab and crawfish were delicious. There were shrimp, potatoes, corn, and sausage. They brought a loaf of bread to the table. Great meal!!

We were seated right away. The restaurant got busy real fast after opening. Food came fast and hot. I had the Hungry Cajun. If you really enjoy seafood and have a big appetite you may want two portions. I added a couple pounds of boiled shrimp and was satisfied. The boiled shrimp was delicious and cheaper than the Hungry Cajun. Kids options are really limited if they aren't into seafood. For us this is a dinner option when we do our annual beach trip.

Out exploring the community we saw and decided to stop by for some gumbo. We ordered the shrimp gumbo, shrimp etoufee, and a half pound peel and eat shrimp. Our meal came with hot bread. Everything was good, and the service was excellent. Will go back!

JUST WOW!! The service, the food, the vibe, the location. All of it. 10/5 stars. Our waiter - I feel terrible I forgot his name - treated every table like they were the only ones there. The service there was better than the food to be honest. I wish I knew our servers name but we went for my daughter's 16th birthday and all got the Hungry Cajun and 4 orders was more than enough! And since it was my daughter's birthday, the server bought her a shirt. I am so thankful. And we all loved using the hammer! Thank you for a wonderful wonderful dinner to celebrate our daughter. The key lime for dessert was out of this world! Amazing! 100 stars!!!

Oh my stars!!!! You need to try this place now, It will not disappoint & prices are reasonable. We had the seafood boil and geez the shrimp was gigantic, the crab legs were meaty, corn was sweet and the warm fresh made bread with butter made the experience elevated. I loved my Gumbo it was semi thick & rich in flavor.

I've been eating at the Crazy Cajun for decades and the food is always good, however expensive. My only complaint is that with all the ceiling fans on, it's like eating in a tornado. Within minutes, the wonderfully-cooked, steaming food was ice-cold making it unpalatable. Please leave the fans off. Ceiling fans have no business being in a restaurant when food is expected to be hot.
