Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen

Pappadeaux's Houston Hobby Airport First I'm not really sure what gate I was at I just know it wasn't anywhere close to gate #2. I got a chance to sit at the bar and I was welcome by bartender Mr. Dominique 5⭐. This guy's multitasking level is epic. How he was able to keep up with everything that was going on around him was unbelievable. Now for me not liking seafood and at one of the most famous seafood restaurants. Mr. Dominique recommend me get the bacon cheeseburger. I didn't take a picture of the second one but I had two . He even told the story of why these burgers are so good and where they get their meat from to cook the burgers . Between the ready to make adult beverages and the key lime pie. This was one of the best experiences I've ever had in an airport at a restaurant.

This place was amazing! I've stopped here before and refused to eat here cause how good is airport food, right? Not good! But this place was super good food flown in fresh daily so all it seafood tasted so good and tasted pretty fresh, made so well too. The staff were so friendly although bombarded with tons of people from lay overs! If I ever get stuck here again I would choose this place every time! We had the crab cake which is a must 1 is big enough for two to split. I had the small order of fried shrimp and it was too much for me. My husband had the Ahi or halibut with shrimp and green beans and they were so good! Great atmosphere but too shoved in there but I get the hustle! Would recommend!

These people know how to do seafood. This is where you go when you love seafood and pull out all the stops. It’s king eating. We went for my nephew’s graduation. Great place to celebrate. It’s top dollar. We paid about $35 a $40 per person including drink and tip, it was excellent. The SHRIMP & CRAWFISH FONDEAUX is from God and it’s just an appetizer. I had to fight not to get filled up just from that. The fondeaux has a cheesy base so it’s heavy and it’s chocked full of seafood - absolutely amazing. So for my main course, I went for the Cobb seafood salad with bacon, shrimp, crab meat and lots of veggies - it was a huge delicious salad. I was so pleased I didn’t make it to dessert.

In a word: delicious! Although the menu at the airport location is limited, the selection of menu items were pretty good. I believe they offered their most popular items. I ordered the seafood pasta and I devoured the entire dish, it was that good! I also tried the key lime pie for dessert and it was very tasty, although they didn’t make it in house.

Besides the fact this Pappadeaux has explosive prices for it being in an airport, our visit was wonderful. We had a big lay over and decided to sit down, eat, and take our time. Gabriel was our waiter and he was great. He was very friendly, talkative, and personable. He always refilled our waters and made sure we were doing okay. He even refilled my water bottle for the flight. (For some reason their water tasted really good). He had zero care in the world that we were sitting down for over an hour and a half waiting for our flight. He kept coming around to talk and made sure he didn’t want to rush us. Crawfish plate was delicious and massive portions. It was an enjoyable lay over despite it being long. Spending a lot of time at Pappadeaux made it go by fast. I am impressed.

The food quality I love about Pappadeax's at the airport was definitely a plus when my flight was delayed. Instead of grabbing fastfood, I had the time to dine at a nice establishment. The service and presentation of the cuisine and cocktail were as if I were in one of their regular restaurants. There was a wait, but my phone number was taken and I was contacted within the time stated.

Fairly good Cajun cuisine. Good service. The prices are fairly high but somewhat expected for an inside-the-airport restaurant. We had the fried shrimp and chicken tenders and the house salad with seafood gumbo. The gumbo is pretty brothy compared to what I’m used to. The fried shrimp is excellent! The fried chicken tenders were just ok.

Phenomenal! Service was pleasant, food was delicious, and the atmosphere was inviting. Perfect place to sit and relax between flights with top notch food and live jazzy music just across the way. Highly recommend the key lime pie!
