Combine Vietnam and Louisiana with a little Houston flair and what do you get? LA Crawfish! Based in Houston, this mini chain has just expanded to Austin and has taken up residence in a spot that's 10 minutes away from Folio.
Houston has become a boomtown for the Vietnamese crawfish craze — think boiled crawfish flavored with Cajun spices, garlic butter, or hot and sour spices. And now Austin has welcomed this dining trend with open arms. In addition to boiled crawfish, the menu is filled with a variety of other tempting dishes, like the crawfish pho, five-spice basil chicken wings, and Cajun curry. This location is owned by a local family who provides above-and-beyond service, according to Yelp reviews. As a bonus, LA Crawfish is a BYOB, and the portions are huge, making a meal here a great value.
