    The seafood gumbo is really good. I also had the crab cake pasta, the crab cakes were very bland, I had to drown them in the sauce for flavor. We also ordered the grill chicken sandwich BLAND, absolutely no seasoning on the chicken. The cashier/servers/cook were all very pleasant. This wasn't my first visit, I just always get the boiled seafood which is always DELICIOUS!!!

    This place has the BEST crawfish I've ever had anywhere. Everything else is fantastic too. Get the soft shell crabs and onion rings. The O rings aren't the scrappy frozen ones or the greasy battered ones, they're just perfect! We go back time and time again when were in the area even though its about 30 minutes out of town

    The Seafood Pot in Destrehan delivers straight-up Cajun comfort. The gumbo is thick, rich, and probably stirred with a boat paddle. The hot sausage on a bun? A spicy, greasy masterpiece that’ll light your mouth up and leave you smiling. Messy, delicious, no regrets.

    Talk about good, good seafood. Good to the last bite. Always great pricing, friendly people and you can even have an adult beverage while you're here. Catch them during the week and there's an all-you-can-eat crawfish special; I think it's on Wednesdays. Crawfish prices are fair; they serve other seafood, po-boys, sandwiches etc. I like it I like it I like it.
