4 /5 Coolaero: Food was so,so however, atmosphere was great. Stop by resturant for to go, ordered Seafood Gumbo, crawl fish bisque, alligator appetizer, shrimp and Etoffel and crawl fish quashadia. Gumbo and bisque was not hot was more cold side and bit salty. The fried allegator was fantastic, my kids trying it first time love it! Shrimp and etofell was awesome. And quesadia was great as well. Overall, foods good.

5 /5 Keith Palmer: This was our first time eating here..Was visiting family and it did not disappoint. Everything we got. Gumbo, shrimp etouffee, fried alligator to the seafood platter was all so fresh tasting and delicious. Prices were phenomenal also. Definitely will eat here again when visiting

5 /5 Ed Olivo: What an incredible establishment! The service is outstanding, super friendly and attentive. And the food...my goodness! The chicken and andouille sausage gumbo is phenomenal! Their boudin balls are amazing and their crawfish quesadillas were fantastic! And their homemade blueberry cheesecake was absolutely to die for! We had to sit in the bar area so it was pretty loud, but definitely worth it!

5 /5 John Hurt: After five long years away from Louisiana, walking into Don’s felt like a homecoming—and that was entirely thanks to Shelby, the incredible bartender. From the moment I sat down, she greeted me with a smile so warm and genuine that I instantly felt like I belonged again. Shelby didn’t just pour drinks—she poured heart into the entire experience. She asked where I was from, recommended her favorite cocktails and dishes, and even shared a few local stories that reminded me of everything I love about Louisiana. Her timing was perfect, her suggestions were spot‑on, and her easygoing, friendly energy made the evening unforgettable. The food and drinks were excellent—the gumbo and oysters were everything I’d been missing—but it was Shelby who made the night special. Her hospitality is the kind that makes you feel like family, not just a customer. If you’re visiting Don’s, sit at Shelby’s bar. Whether you’re a local or a traveler, she’ll make you feel like you’re right at home in Cajun country. Thank you, Shelby—you turned a night out into a memory I’ll carry with me for a long time.

5 /5 Anthony Presley: Absolutely great place. Warm and welcoming as soon as you walk in. It was very busy, but I only waited about 10 minutes. Jade, my waitress was absolutely great, perfect service, great attitude and personality. I ordered the catfish and shrimp platter (small), and the hush puppies. Hush puppies were fantastic, tarter sauce was the best Ive had in a very long time. Catfish was was crispy and delicious, shrimp were perfect as well. Dons will definitely be on my repeat restaurant list. Thank you for the wonderful food and experience. love stopping by Don’s Seafood whenever I get the chance! The seafood platter is always fresh and full of flavor, and everything tastes homemade. The stuffed crab is absolutely delicious, and the stuffed shrimp are huge and packed with flavor, always hits the spot. The staff is friendly and welcoming, which makes every visit even better. If you love great seafood, this is definitely the place to go!
