Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"There are a bunch of reviews here stating that the crawfish are excellent and/or amazing. However these are all understatements! NeNe's is hands down, no contest, the best boiled crawfish available anywhere. It's not up for debate. It is a fact. If you're looking for literally the best crawfish on the planet. It's here at NeNe's. The search is over."
"I can’t say enough about this place. The great food is only matched by the ambiance of the place. Best boiled crawfish for miles. This place is great for bringing your whole family or to bring a date. Can’t recommend it enough. Fun atmosphere with amazing food. Nene’s is a staple for my family. Get the fish tacos!!"
"Great crawfish! They also have some really tasty food options when we used them to cater my brother-in-law's wedding. Everyone at the wedding reception still talks about how good the food was."
"The crawfish is great! More importantly, their service is outstanding! Last year, I arrived just as they were trying to close up shop (not knowing what time they closed). They happily fulfilled my order and thanked me for stopping by. I returned a couple of times last year and the quality of the food, as well as the service, was consistent. So, I made it a point to check them out opening weekend this season, and the service was awesome as always, and they remembered me. I don't get crawfish too often because my husband and kids don't eat it. However, this is now my go to crawfish spot when I do! Check them out, you won't be disappointed."
"I had a great experience. I would order crawfish again from them. And they treat you right"
"I’m guessing they changed the name to nene’s catering, but I went here for the first time on Easter Sunday and the crawfish were awesome!!!! They also have these bang bang shrimp that are great!! Will definitely be returning!"
"The absolute biggest and best crawfish in the area......even the customer service is top notch....this place is the best kept secret in Louisiana"
"My brother worked with the staff to surprise me with a roasted gator feast for the last night of my bachelor party. It was one of the best experiences of my life. Everything about this place is excellent - the people, the food, the ambience. The employees took all time and effort to make sure the gator was cooked perfectly. They took down my address and promised to send me the boiled head from our gator and a t-shirt. I will cherish both of those souvenirs. 6 Stars - can't wait to go back! And thank you for every part of our dinner experience."
