My fav seafood kitchen in the valley! Scratch kitchen so if u don't like it it's because you didn't communicate with your server!!

The food was excellent, portions were just right, prices were what one should expect for this type of restaurant. Everything is made fresh, and all the fish is brought in daily. I would definitely recommend making a reservation as the wait can be lengthy without one.

Absolutely the best food in Arizona. Haven’t had this good of Cajun food since Houston! The shrimp and scallops were succulent and well seasoned! ���

5 stars is not enough for the Best Restaurant, Best Food and Service period. It's well worth the drive from San Tan Valley. Thanks!! We'll be back.

Wow! This is a fantastic restaurant! So many great options and everything is delicious. The decor is very nice, and it is conveniently located off the freeway. If you go for lunch (11 to 3, I think) there is a lunch menu too, and that cuts the prices in half. There is a nice outdoor dining area too.

This place is a real find. Great atmosphere, amazing fresh seafood, top notch attentive service. They have it all. The prices are a little more, but worth it. I suggest the lunch menu! Large portions and better prices.

Absolutely wonderful! I ordered the espresso martini and the shrimp alfredo. They use the best ingredients. Real coffee, homemade pasta, seasoning on the shrimp was phenomenal. The Real cheese used just makes this dish so spectacular. I will be coming back! The service was top notch and extremely attentive. Always checked in on us frequently and had perfect timing. Went above and beyond!!

Every Pappadeaux restaurant in the country is great. This is another great one. The ambiance is really cool, the service is great and the food is outstanding. This restaurant is a notch above, everything on the menu tastes great. Try the boudin sausage or alligator bites. The red fish Pontchartrain is good too. Tonight I had the sea bass and lobster. Finished up with one of the best and biggest slices if cheesecake ever. Two big thumbs up for Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen!

I don't think I'm telling any secrets when I say this is a Louisiana Seafood restaurant in Arizona. It offers a decent selection of creole and seafood staples and it does it above average. I am gonna put the best part up front here - The Oven Baked Crab Cake was absolutely the best crab cake I've ever had. It has to be the best thing on the menu, and if you order nothing else, this would be the thing to get. It is massive and could be a meal itself, or you could split it up with friends, but you won't want too. It was moist and savory, but baked just enough to enjoy the crunch first. The shrimp and grits were good, but a bit salty for our liking, and the seafood platter had generous portions and could be shared by two people easily. But neither plate was anything different than what you would expect from an upscale chain restaurant. We almost didn't receive the crab cake because the waitress forgot to ring it in, but when the meals arrived and we saw how big they were, we said to just forget it because there was no way we could eat it all. I am glad she ignored us and brought it anyway because I ended up finishing that whole thing and leaving some of the catfish and french fries behind instead. We had a couple of the new summery type drinks as well, and while they weren't bad, they didn't take any risks either. Just a sweet drink that masked the alcohol and tasted alright. Also, this restaurant might be one of the largest I have ever been to. It had to have over 150 tables in it. That in and of itself was quite a sight. I also recommend making a reservation if coming here because during busy hours, you will most likely wait if you do not have one. Overall, a good experience. I like to try new places, so it's likely I wouldn't come back here for a full meal with my girl again, but I would sneak here on a lunch break to eat the crab cake once a week without thinking twice.

Our server was amazing and requested that the manager came to discuss an item we felt was too salty to eat and corrected it by making it again. It was a busy holiday Father's Day which I feel resulted in things being out of the ordinary such as running out of scallops and waiting for our table past the reservation time, but within the 15 minute grace period. Overall a great spot for special occasions or if you are just a seafood lover. The Peach sidecar was a great drink and I enjoyed my "usual" the pasta with shrimp scallops and lump crab.

It turned out to be very close to where we were renting a VRBO. We got my long time desire of crawfish etouffee which was very good. Mmmm.. My wife got the grouper with crab lumps and shrimp. She loved it. My son got the shrimp poboy and sausage gumbo. He enjoyed his meal. He followed it up with a cheesecake. My wife and I shared a pecan with sweet potato pie. It was great! Expensive but we would go back in a heartbeat!

This is our special place for special days. It’s a beautiful place that serves the best seafood. They give a generous military discount and a free desert to those celebrating a birthday. The dishes are delicious and they serve huge amounts of food. My favorite are the fried shrimps and Gumbo soup. The employees are very personable and professional. You will not be disappointed. It’s best to make reservations.

Great atmosphere with great decor, fountains, outdoor seating, great customer service, and outstanding food! It is a nice walk inside the restaurant, as you have to pass up a beautiful fountain and their outdoor seated area. The restaurant is really spacious and upon entry you come across their beautiful bar, which is also really big. The ceilings were crafted beautifully and the decor blended in with the atmosphere. We were seated within seconds and with a smile. Our server was Shanice. She seemed timid but was very friendly, professional, and patient while we browsed through the menu. We ordered the chicken tenderloins with fries and a side of rice and beans, the seafood gumbo and the Caesar salad. The tenderloins were served piping hot with the perfect crust and perfectly seasoned. They were delicious! They brought out honesty mustard and ketchup and I asked for a side or ranch, which by the way was also delicious and fresh! The fries were served hot and upon request seasoned with Cajun spices. The Caesar was good (nothing to brag about lol) and the gumbo, ummm, I think could use a little thickening. I didn’t personally eat it but my boyfriend said it was just okay and it tasted more like a soup. From what I’ve seen, a gumbo tends to have more of a thick stew like texture so I would have to agree with him there. With that said, Shanice continued to check on it and overall is rated an outstanding experience. I wish I had arrived just an hour sooner so that I can taste their po-boy and also wish they offered just a couple more options for people like myself who don’t eat seafood - but listen, there’s nothing about this place I would change!

Let me just say, I've had Pappadeaux's before and it never disappoints. Taylor was an amazing server. The food was great, the flavors were outstanding. The out off office drink was so delicious and refreshing. The portions were huge too, couldn't finish all my food. I will definitely be back.

A group of us friend's from all over (I'm from MD-crab state) chose Arizona for our annual girl's trip this year. This restaurant and location had great reviews. I'd never heard or Pappadeaux's before but was excited to try to a new place for a great experience to eat seafood. This was probably was the best plate of food I've ever had in my life to date. My Crawfish E'touffee (never had crawfish) was packed with so much flavor. Here in MD, I choose not to eat crawfish because I reject eating whole heads and sucking meat from tails; not my thing. It may look like a simple plate of food but your eyes will not agree with your stomach; you will be deceived with a mediocre mind state. I ate myself into a pulp and fell asleep on the way home!!! lol My sweet potato pecan pie was the most tastiest desert I've ever had. The presentation alone was enough for me to go in. It was sweet, fluffy, buttery and made my palate dance with pure sweet heaven's bliss and joy. The staff was friendly, attentive, and spot on. I really wish I could pay an expensive door dash to me in Maryland! I highly recommend this place as a first choice when choosing to eat seafood. -Enjoy

I truly enjoy going here. We usually get a great waitress/waiter. This last time we were not so lucky. I wish she was a little more attentive. One thing I will say is the food is always amazing!! We made reservations and we were seated on time. Hostess was friendly! Environment was perfect! We will go back again!

Great restaurant Seafood Restaurant, although part of a franchise the atmosphere and fare is like one that you might have in a nouveau trendy restaurant. The food is well prepared, the service has been great every time that we have dined in and everyone is cordial and helpful! Please make sure that you make your reservation because this restaurant is always full 👍🏼

This place has a very nice atmosphere. This will be my second visit. The food is amazing. The service is excellent. The first time we came, our waiter was busy and took a while to bring drinks. But the place was pretty full. He said that he would give us free dessert to make up for him getting to our table. After that, he was always attentive to filling our drinks and making sure we were okay. I love the fried catfish and my friends love the seafood gumbo. The plate sizes are overflowing. Enough for the next day. Love this place.

Outstanding food and service. Super friendly yet efficient waitstaff and all staff, actually. Be prepared to wait, though, due to the extreme popularity of this place. It is worth the wait.
