Jenivi's Seafood Shoppe in Houston

Great seafood place . We waited about 12 mins to be seated (busy means good food normally lol) My boyfriend had been here before but this was my first time . We ordered a lot of food from the gumbo *chicken and andouille sausage , the creole wings , the catfish platter ( we only wanted two pieces but it's a better deal to do the platter then À la carte. ) , we got two pounds of crawfish at market price which was about $10.99 per lbs and a pound of shrimp with the corn and potatoes. The spice level was medium which was definitely not medium. More like HOT AS HELL Medium lol . Never the less great flavor wish I got regular butter with the medium but also I should have asked . Definitely 4 1/2 stars only suggestion is to have the option of having your corn in batter and fried or boiled  with the catfish platter. The corn great fried just not what I wanted not when the server suggested I get it with corn did she mention it was fried. To sum it all up ! GO !!! This was my first trip and it was as the young kids say Bussin.

Next stop on the crawfish tour: Jenivi's Seafood Shoppe This place has always been one of my top go to places crawfish season after crawfish season. The staff is exceptional and the crawfish is bomb!!! Others seem to agree too! I had tried calling in my order since 12PM (when it opened) but kept getting the voicemail or busy tone. Guess a lot of people were craving crawfish today too. My husband got there at 12:15PM and ended up placing the to-go order for us. He said the restaurant was about 1/3-1/2 full. By the time he came back at 12:45PM to pick up the order, the restaurant was packed and people were in line waiting for a table! If that doesn't speak to how good the restaurant is, then I don't know what will. Review time: STAFF: The staff here is simply amazing! They are so nice and friendly and really get to know you especially when you come around often enough. PRICE: $10.99/lb - A little bit on the higher side, but in my opinion, totally worth the premium! Honestly the extra $1-2 compared to all the other places for the amazing flavor = worth it!! FLAVORS: They only have one flavor, but 3 spice levels: mild, medium, spicy. Today I was brave and went with medium - I definitely feel I was able to handle the spice today. But lips were still tingly an hour later, but don't worry they are good now. SIZE...

Never had anything to eat at Seafood Shoppe I did not like. Awesome place!
