First time coming here and I'm impressed!
The service was really good and the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice. Came for the crawfish and was not disappointed. Really garlicky and a nice bit of heat. Definitely suggest coming here with your friends for an amazing experience.
Thank you Joshua!Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mar 2, 2024
This place absolutely has the best crawfish this side of town by far. I've been here twice, and both times I have not been disappointed.
I usually grab a few lbs, garlic butter medium spicy. And it's DELICIOUS . I also get a half pound of mussels if I have room
Service is great. When I go it's usually not busy during the day. And the vibe is casual crab shack. I love it here!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 4746945Feb 8, 2024
My my my! This crab shack restaurant is so delicious!!! I recommend snow crab legs with sausage, shrimp , potatoes plus corn on the cob. Garlic seasoning and spiciest flavor. Also have a wonderful mini margaritas flight just for variety. All the servers are so kind and helpful and genuinely good at their jobs. The overall look of the place is nautical and there's a wrap around bar in the center of the restaurant . Kids menu is also on point . Bathrooms clean. Only thing I would improve is that is not a baby changing station in the bathroom but besides that it is delicious and always a good time!

Decided to stop at this cute little place while I was in Cedar Park and was able to slam a couple pounds of crawfish and crab. Everything was super tasty. I had the garlic butter on one batch and then lemon pepper on the next. I will be back!
Also so the service was on point. Christian was probably the most polite and respectable server I've ever had.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 967818027Aug 15, 2023
The shrimp are a good size and fried well. I could taste the sweetness of the shrimp! I wasn't fond of the breading, though. Removing it, however, did show well-cooked, tasty shrimp.
However, the catfish was a disappointment. It was a generous serving and glistened with oil. But the texture of and taste to the breading on the thin filet also was not to my liking.
My meals came with cole slaw that had a bite to it and seasoned fries that were delicious.
Service here is good. My first server was a non seafood eater, but was able to direct me to the shrimp as a good seller. Another server gave me advice that steered me from the catfish poboy to the straight catfish.Â
I suggest popping in at lunch and trying a lunch special before going for a full meal. Doing this saved me with my catfish taste preference discovery.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Cory B.SoMa, San Francisco, CA011Mar 30, 2024
I have been to Abby's 10+ times! We have always loved this place. We just got back home from Abby's. I paid $134 for 3 alcohol drinks and 2 sodas with the "buy 5lbs get 1 free" of crawfish. Mind you I've been here 10+ times. They brought our food, taste is amazing! Here's the issue....we ate all the crawfish they brought between me, my wife and 7 year old and we're still starving. I go to the waitress and ask "are they still cooking the rest of it?". She responds "that's all of it sir." I was quite confused. I respond "all of what? Crawfish? That was 2 MAYBE 3 lbs at most. I have 5 crawfish boils myself every year, and go out to eat it once or twice a week during season. We come to abbys countless times each season. Crawfish our favorite food by far and I know the weights like the back of my hand. Please don't tell me that was even half of what I ordered!" She responded saying they weighed it and it was 6.
I told her I'd be leaving a review and never be returning. I also spoke to the manager about this. The manager has the audacity to say "we will give you another lb for free. The crawfish are small this year." I (confused as heck) proceeded to ask "if it's by weight, why would the size of them affect it?"
Our absolute favorite restaurant screwed us so severely I'll never be returning. It's sad that they would do this because the lack of crawfish this year. But they won't be taking advantage of us again. I may actually go back tomorrow to order a couple pounds and bring a food scale with me to prove this so maybe I can recoup some of my $135 back.
By the way. This is the FIRST REVEIW IVE IVER LEFT FOR ANY COMPANY EVER. I'm no Karen, I'm no complainer. I'm furious that I was taken advantage of. The picture attached is "half of the 6lbs." Please don't tell me this is 3lbs of crawfish. I'm furious!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Tabitha B.Cedar Park, TX10110411Dec 28, 2023
Visited Abby's for the first time a couple of weeks ago for lunch. The boudin balls and fried catfish (and hush puppies) are really good. Service wasn't the best but they were busy, prob caught them on an off day. Went back for dinner on Christmas eve and tried the pho. De-lish!!! Service was on point. Will definitely be regulars here!
