The 24 Best Restaurants in Houston
"One comes to Crawfish & Noodles for its unique Vietnamese-Cajun fusion, not so much the atmosphere—unless, that is, disco balls are your thing. Chef and owner Trong Nguyen was named a 2018 James Beard Award semifinalist, so you know he serves up some mean mudbugs. The crowd here is boisterous; everyone's wearing bibs and rubber gloves while anxiously the "Vietcajun," the restaurant's signature dish, which serves boiled crawfish regular, mild, medium, or spicy—we say, the hotter the better. And the garlic butter and chile pepper spice mix is to die for." - Charu Suri, Diana Oates
