I love the atmosphere of this place. I always get something different and am never disappointed. I recommend the pork chop and blackened chicken salad.
Pretty awesome food and atmosphere. The place was packed, but we still received our food within 15 minutes. Staff was friendly and bathrooms were clean.
Found by app !
Gave it a try ! The food was good and served hot drinks were quickly brought by runners and all was good.
Tried seared scallops w creamed spinach and garlic cheese grits all food came out good and hot . Requested scallops a certain way and they were severed properly cooked as requested . Would recommend for lunch
Went here for lunch while we were in town for a few hours and loved it! The food was great and the prices even better! We started with the Pesto and Goat Cheese Dip, which was different than I expected, but great! My hubby got the lunch ribeye, which was SO flavorful and I got the glazed salmon. The only complaint I had was that there was a little too much goat cheese on my salmon. Other than that, our meals were perfect! We'll definitely be back!
I am a sucker for "date" spots or pretty places. Crawdaddy's is one of the prettiest restaurants out there. It seems like a pretty great spot for dinner or lunch and was crowded when I went there last Saturday. A friend of mine and I waited for around 10 minutes to get seated outdoors. Outdoor seating is always fun and pretty in comparison to indoor seating. Okay, I have officially reached my personal limit for the word "pretty" in this review!
We got seated at around 8.15 PM and were handed the menu immediately. I ordered a Coke and my friend ordered the 4 dollar Long Island Iced Tea. The amount of alcohol in that drink was proportional to the price of the drink. We started off with Fried Green Tomatoes and asked them to have the lump crab cream sauce on the side as I am a vegetarian. This was very interesting and tasty. They served it alongside spicy mayo for my benefit. For mains we ordered Roasted Portobello Sandwich with Garlic Mashed Potatoes (I am not big on sandwiches. This was okay for me. But the Garlic Mashed Potatoes were nicely done!). Their vegetarian options are so limited and I can't really judge them based on that. My friend had the Mushroom Smothered Steak with Fried Okra and Broccoli on the sides. She liked what she was served and I liked the sides that were served on her plate!
The portions are large enough and have to be as they are priced on the higher side too. At 10 in the night, the band "Spoonfull" played and they were really good. All in all, we had a great evening. It is going to be on my list of "pretty" places for a long time! :)
I recommend!
Great lunch spot. Had the lunch special today. 5oz ribeye with potatoes and green beans. Super deal for $7.99. Steak had good flavor, beans were what seemed like pan seared but not positive. Skim on mashed potatoes. Popular and busy place but service was good. Gotta come back.
Loved it--the food, the service, the music, the Long Island Ice Tea!
Awesome. I travel the states every week, when I drive through Cookeville, TN I always go to Crawdaddys.
We love taking advantage of local restaurants when traveling and are very excited we found this excellent gem. The shrimp Po Boy was outstanding! They even purchase Gambini's bakery bread to make it perfect. I also had the cheese grits which were delightful. 5 stars!!
Fun food, fun experience. Really great time -- unexpectedly good. The goat cheese and pesto dip is soooooo good. I just wish they would share the recipe. The fried green beans are unusual but delicious. We liked everything we tried.
Wings!. My husband and I actually go there and eat the wings. They seem to be our favorite so far. I honestly don't think we have ever tried any of their other food. The place is a little on the expensive side. Great service usually. We have had a few that weren't too friendly. Overall we like Crawdaddy's.
Excellent food and staff! Would recommend the gator bites! Owner would go out of his way to accommodate any size party.
Very delicious food. I suggest anything with a Cajun flare. Service could improve and cleanlines questionable. I however will return to give it another try.
Couldn't have been better. On a recent trip to East Tennessee we stopped by Crawdaddy's for lunch. We were seated on the patio and thoroughly enjoyed eating there, plenty of shade made for a very comfortable meal outside. This was our third time there and each time we've had different entrees. Had the blackened catfish this time and it was excellent. Wife had the shrimp po-boy and it too was excellent. Never had anything that was a disappointment. Service always good. Its a worthy destination for lunch or dinner.
Good place, but like most bar/grill combinations, cleanliness is always a challenge
The food is always excellent, but the service is sometimes slow. Plan to enjoy the wait with good company or an appetizer. The fried.green.tomatoes are wonderful!
Salmon Caesar Salad. Delicious! My favorite. The salmon here is always the best in town.
Best place in Cookeville!!!
Sam is an awesome bartender
Everytime I eat at this establishment, I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of and fine taste of everything I have ever tried. Service is good and staff are always friendly.
Absolutely delicious! We got the pesto goat cheese appetizer. It was full of flavor! We tried the Cajun Penne Pasta bowl, this had cappers, mild sauce, just the right amount of spice, and peppers. The rack of lamp was cooked perfectly, medium, melt in your mouth tender, with a honey, balsamic, and soy mixture for the sauce!!! It was perfection and I highly recommend. The service was friendly and prompt with a great family atmosphere.
Absolutely amazing experience. Staff was nice and even was able to work with a menu item alter request. Waiter made sure our cups were full. And the food tasted delicious. We had a gator po boy, crawfish etoufee, and the BBQ chicken. All were amazing. Will be coming back again soon for my Cajun fix.
Beautiful outdoor seating and romantic atmosphere at night. Service was kinda slow but very friendly. A great place to come on a date or with friends, maybe not if your in a rush.
The food has always been delish, and ambiance in the courtyard is so inviting. It's one of the few restaurants we drive out of the way for. The service is always good, too. And in "these times" when it causes anxiety just to leave the security of home, I felt more at ease because the staff was masked, and I even saw the host spraying down the menus in an effort to keep things as clean and germ free as possible. I had the salmon today and it was quite tasty.
Thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I have eaten in New Orleans and this has almost all the taste, looks and smells of New Orleans. The only thing lacking is the crowded Street and salty air. The food was served quickly with generous portions. The staff was attentive and courteous. Next time, I will probably look to enjoy eating outside in the courtyard. Absolutely love Crawdaddy's!!
The experience here is always great! The food and service are excellent, and the prices are fair. Thus time we also got our pictures taken and they looked great!
The waitress Jordan was very nice and attentive. I decided to eat upstairs where the bar is and the TVs were playing. The place was pretty packed but not completely full for a Saturday night. The food was delicious but be careful if you want the porter. They don’t always have enough. I will definitely be back.
