Best

This is one of the most consistently great restaurants in Houston. The shrimp gumbo is some of the best I have eaten. If you're in the mood for fish - try the pecan crusted trout ...

Worst

Went for lunch today, horrible experience! Found dirty chair when i went to sit down, waitress was there and took credit for the filthiness and asked for me to excuse it. Waitress...

The crawfish....my god the crawfish.... Best around for sure. With Jimmy G's it's important to know what your getting into to. This isn't some bargain bin side of the road seafood joint with gimmicks and novelties (read: tourist trap) This is the bonifide local joint thats been here over 40 years. This is a true ""hole in the wall"" local joint that does nothing except serve the absolute BEST cajun seafood around. After talking with the local security guard (VERY nice guy!) Ive learned that ALL of the seafood comes in from New Orleans by a truck fresh every morning. And believe me you can taste the freshness. The crawfish are perfectly spiced as others have said, and the oysters are out of this world. (i prefer the grilled here, I usually order them raw up north, but the way this place grills them is top notch).\r \r Now heres the real deal: The best service is at the bar, no question. Service at tables is sub-par at best. The bar however is where you should be sitting. Its where the employees that have worked here for decades tend to, and the bar people get served first. more

As an appetizer, we had 2 dozen oysters - one raw and one grilled. All were delicious, if a little small. Of course, one dozen came to 14 oysters as compensation. more

We all enjoyed food. The oysters on the half shell were succulent. The oyster po boy was wonderful. The fried shrimp was perfect. The fries were fresh and like they were made in house. The sauces were really good. We were too full to enjoy desserts, but they looked wonderful as they sat on the display tray. So sad. But they give out these little wonderful mints that aren't mint...they're keylime! more
