Johnson: The overall experience was good, but the boil was bland. I prefer when the flavors are infused into each bite of the seafood, rather than being sprinkled like a dry rub. The Holy Krack Special seasoning is the tastiest option. The fresh crawfish tasted as advertised, fresh. The chicken wings were fine, but I wouldn’t recommend them. It was interesting to learn the owner is Asian since such a cultural background leads to a unique perspective on Cajun cuisine.

Jamona Hehner: My son & daughter-in-law got a crab n shrimp boil, my daughter had chicken strips, I got sausage. We all pretty much shared. It was soooo good! The wonderful lady that took care of us went above and beyond in so many ways! My young (age 3 n 4) grandson & granddaughter were with us, and she had crayons and cartoons at the ready. The food was delicious! I very highly suggest the "Holy Krack" seasoning. I'm telling you, CHECK IT OUT! You won't be disappointed!Kid-friendliness: The waitress we had was amazing with my grandkids!!

Austin Stigall: I was pleasantly surprised by this little place. We had the hand breaded okra, pickles, and the calamari. Delish. We also had some fresh oysters and the gumbo. Everything was awesome. The prices were/are very fair and the service was top notch friendly. We will definitely be back.

Jon Saxon: We came here on a friday night. They had some really good specials going, so the prices were great. The food was good and the servers were very friendly. Overall a really satisfying experience if you are a seafood lover.

Kyle Kirk: The crab was great! Cooked well. Good portion sizes. Even had real gator bites! Service was top notch. Will definitely be back.

Sarah Dabbs: I orderred the etouffee and the krackin seafood basket. It was all hot, the breading was light, and it was excellent overall.

Matt Hite: Terrible service. Small portions but high prices. Waitress made a comment to other guests that once we finally decide to leave she would sit them. Plenty of other options for fresh seafood in town.

Steve Burgher: Really good! Everything was fresh and delicious

Alisha Gentry: The fish was very fishy and there was no seasoning on the shrimp or fish and the fries were coated in grease and very soggy

Joey Eakins: Food was tasteless and absolutely no seasoning on it. I can’t for the life of me see how people are raving about this place. If I had to eat this kind of food, I would rather hitch hike to Louisiana in the snow than to drive to this place down the street. Way overpriced for what you get too.

Pam Hershey: Always amazing

Alfred Hopkins: Great food. Will definitely be going back.

David Welcher: The ONLY authentic cajun food in Springfield! All shrimp, crab and crawfish are caught the day before. Very fresh, very delicious!

voose: New owner's, employees not wearing masks, new recipes, and new HIGHER prices. Definitely not the same shrimp and bayou classics.

chad hoover: Excellent service and food! Very happy with what we got and will definitely be goung back for more.

Robin Wiese: Sorry - I truly am - but for the money we just paid I am NOT impressed. Very bland - absolutely no flavor whatsoever in either the shrimp creole or the red beans and rice (which I was really looking forward to). Oysters were dry, shrimp was *eh* ... and as I mentioned there was NO seasoning. Such a shame.

Jim Amman: Really good 👍

Billy Roberts: Tried for the first time this Saturday, very close to authentic gulf food was very good food, brand new building, very clean, extremely warm and courteous service, pick up only could have used some picnic tables as we live out of town, the to go for gumbo, dirty rice ,red beans and rice and definitely the fried shrimp and catfish, I do however wish they had combo meals wanted to try the alligator also but maybe next time

Tonia Phinney: The classic combo has a great mix of Cajun flavors. In the mood for some alligator bites? They've got them. They must be good because we keep going back!Update: this place is permanently closed.

chad stewart: This little place is amazing. Wish I would have known about it years ago would have saved many hours of driving to the gulf to eat. Portions are good size and cooked perfectly.

Sarah Bearden: Best Cajun food done right.

Myka Watz: I dont understand why everyone is saying that the food is so good here. I gave it a second chance but it's just so bland. Red beans and rice tasted like cardboard and the frog legs were bland and undercooked. Staff was pretty rude too. I wouldnt waste the cash.

Ketrena Graves: Amazing cajun food. Highly recommend them.

Josh Bender: Reading the other reviews, I'm seeing a common theme. Food is great, staff sucks. I agree. I was reminded of why it had been so long since I had eaten here... When you act upset that you have to get off your rear to come take my order, you probably shouldn't be in the food service business. Only reason its not a 1 star review is because the food is actually really good. Now if they could match their staffing to that....

L Doyel: Food was very good! Staff was rude and didn’t even say thank you. Not worth the attitude.

Jeff Ehrhart: Really good food, but outdoor seating only. It's more of a food truck than a restaurant, but the jambalaya, red or brown, is good, and the boiled shrimp was delicious!

Ireland: Delicious! The catfish and shrimp are my favorite!

T. Burks: Enjoyed this place!

Beau Branscum: I was pleasantly surprised with the Big Easy Grill! We were trying to find a place to eat while passing through town a little late in the day, and it was only a handful of places open still. But, when we got there, settled in, and eating... It was such a good idea to stop in. Looking around at everyone's food, I had no idea what I was going to get. But, in the end, I couldn't go wrong with anything they had.

Dan C: Excellent fried fish, hush puppies, sweet potato fries, and coleslaw. We liked it a lot! Good service. Clean place.Recommended dishes Catfish Dinner …More

Thomas Price: 1st time here. Service was a little slow at first. I stood there for around 5 mins before anyone noticed me . Cooks looked and me and turned around . 1 lady seated me and seemed like she wasn't happy to be there and another Waitress Grace) seemed busy as she had a large group in the back ,But was happy to help me and take my order.Had the seafood gumbo. I've had better and I've had worse but over all It was delicious. I think for me it needed some spice. Which I overheard a few other customers order theirs medium to extra spicy.Fried pickles were ok. A little over cooked. And seemed to have a sweet taste. Which thru me off . Crispy texture and stillGood but different. The gumbo was served with slices of a French bread, crispy top and soft in the middleOver all good food and good atmosphere. I will be back. As most other patrons was ordering the Dirty Jambalaya and or crawfish Etouffee which sounds delicious.

Alyssa A: I enjoyed this place! I ordered the 1 fish, 5 shrimp with fries and red beans and rice. I loved the fish sauce but wasn’t a big fan of their cocktail type sauce. I also thought their fries could use some type of Cajun style seasoning. The red beans and rice were the best I’ve ever had! To finish off we tried the peach hand pie which was fantastic. I would come back again!

Marika Moske: DO NOT EAT HERE! YOU WILL BE RIPPED OFF!!!!! I gave this place a try, ordered carry out and tipped nicely. I was incredibly disappointed. First, I didn't receive some of my order. Second, the food that I actually did receive was so bad I ended up just throwing it out. Sucks but what can you do. All I actually wanted was a refund on the items I didn't receive, they refused and I had to report fraud to my bank. Forgot to mention it was an 84$ order. I 10/10 WOULD NOT recommended.

David Arthur: When I want seafood this is where I go. Until tonight the cooks in the back started yelling at each other, went on for 15 minutes. Ridiculous.

brokencc84: To sum this place up in one word. "disgusting". I've never been here before and thought with 4.3 stars we would give it a shot. The first issue I had was how unhelpful the girl working the counter was. I asked what kind of cheese came on the cheese steak and she couldn't even tell me. Then asked me if I wanted her to ask. Well yeah... Went to get my drink and all the drinks were flat. I informed her that the carbonation was out and she just said "oh ok"made zero attempt to remedy this. I ordered the cheese steak, and it had a wierd sweet tangy taste combined with way too much pepper. After trying to eat more of this sandwich I realized what they put on it that made it taste wierd. MIRACLE WHIP! who the hell puts miracle whip on a Philly? It was absolutely disgusting. I ordered the cole slaw with it and I had to spit it out. You can tell it had been previously frozen and then thawed to room temperature. Nothing was edible. My wife had the shrimp poboy which was just as bad as the rest of the food. And the Mac and cheese tasted like it had been refrigerated and reheated in the microwave multiple times. None of the food was fresh. To top that off the restaurant was very quiet almost library like. No music on, the tv had a game on but it was frozen. So it was awkwardly quiet. Except for the cooks in the kitchen horrible singing. To top off all that there were ants crawling on the table. If I was the owner of this place I would be absolutely embarrassed and ashamed to open my doors to customers. This place needs a surprise visit from the health department. I guarantee they would fail an inspection. Never again will I eat here or recommend it to anyone. There is no place in springfield for a dump like this. Negative - 5 stars!

Couldn't have been happier and felt more welcomed and appreciated anywhere else recently in a while!! She was just above and beyond! And of course the food was on point as it always is!! 👌
