Trippin’ with the Southers

We’d been told by two locals that we had to dine here. We are so glad we listened. We shared 3lbs of crawfish, .5lbs of shrimp, and crab. The girls ordered popcorn shrimp, and gumbo. The gumbo was creamy, meaty, rice, delicious. The popcorn shrimp was delicious, good-sized, and a lot came in the serving. The crawfish, shrimp, and crab were perfectly cooked. We would definitely go back for more if in the area again.

Great spice in the boil. Mix of crawfish with 50% large and more than expected field run but the flavor and service outweighs the quantity of small crawfish. I still give 5 stars for the overall experience.

We are boiled crawfish there and they were really good. Maybe a little too much spice on the outside, but overall good. The fried alligator was good too. Clarice was our waitress and she was very sweet and attentive! (In the “What do you recommend” section, there isn’t an option for boiled crawfish.

This was the best crawfish experience we had in Lake Charles, fun with love music entertainment. They had the best onion rings we’ve ever tasted

We've done several company events here and it's been great every time. All the servers are friendly. Crawfish are good sized and shrimp are HUGE. Live outdoor patio music is nice. Clean bathrooms. Julia was our server in this photo and she was awesome - outstanding job.

My wife and I decided to try this place out. It’s Good Friday, and we wanted some crawfish. This place is great. The crawfish and shrimp were great. And the jacked up fries were awesome. Also, our server was phenomenal, shout out to Taylor! We will definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend checking this place out. (A little Lagniappe, they have beer buckets, and a live band. Can’t go wrong!)

Awesome experience at BeauxDines'. The outdoor patio had a band, and it's a great atmosphere! The food was amazing! Highly recommend tourists get off the main drag and give this place a try! They serve a variety of beers. It was just the type of place we needed passing through for the night! Highly recommend for food, atmosphere, service, and entertainment!

So my niece was visiting from Montana and she was craving a crawfish boil. Since it was her first time in Texas I had to do her right and we drove to Louisiana. Read some Google reviews and ended up here. We were no disappointed. For appetizers we had the crawfish fries and crab balls. Sorry I forgot to take pictures of the full portion because we were hungry. Lol. All four of us eat 5 lbs of crawfish, corn and potatoes. Make sure you get the crawfish dipping sauce.
