Crawdaddy's - Cookeville

The food and service were amazing. Worth the stop and we will be back.

They was packed so service wasnt that great they under cooked my husband food and then forgot the shrimp that went with it it was ok but to expensive to deal with that mess

WOW this food was amazing!! I tried the rack of lamb, it was the very first time I 'd eaten that dish, and I find myself wanting more! And once you dip it in the sauce? That 's it, you 'll never eat anything else ever again without thinking I wish this was a rack of lamb from Crawdaddy 's. It 's absolutely worth any wait time, any amount of money spent, the food is THAT good! I came for the gator bites, which were also amazing, I stayed for the crab cakes which I knew I 'd love, and I unexpectedly fell in love with the lamb. 10 outta 10, will be back!

I have eaten at Crawdaddys for years and would typically rate it a 3.75-4 stars. It’s not my top choice in Cookeville, but it is a Sunday and not much is open. To start, I ordered an espresso martini. It came out lukewarm, tasting like bad chocolate milk, and looking like frothy dishwater. Our server never came to check on us so I had to sit with it for 20 minutes waiting to order something else. Next, we had mussels which were by far the worst any of us had ever had in our lives, covered in canned tomatoes. The jambalaya and Cajun pasta were completely tasteless and left mostly uneaten. Lastly, one of us ordered the shrimp po boy and had to pick the shrimp off as the bread was hard as a rock (see photos, it wouldn’t let me post a video which was us knocking it on the table)… This is my first time leaving a bad review for a business, but we got an appetizer and meals and are leaving hungry. We were also neglected by our server, but the outdoor patio was nice.

The server we had was very pleasant. Food was amazing.
