Cafe Rian 12230 N Sam Houston Parkway W

Food was so delicious. The spicy Crawfish Mac N Cheese was absolutely DELICIOUS!Fish & Shrimp we’re seasoned very well and perfectly fried. Cajun Zing Wings were delicious as well. They are a perfect mixture of sweet and spicy. My only suggestion..The waitress should give the guest a heads up about being charged $0.50, for a rim of sugar or salt around the glass when ordering alcoholic beverages. Let the customer decide if they want to pay the additional $0.50 charge. Other than that no complaints. Would definitely come again!

Great Food, Great service. We had to eat outside since it was busy, but the waitress didn't forget about us. Shrimp and Grits were recommended and it was exceptionally good. Also, the nachos and spinach dip was different and delicious. Will be coming back....Food: 5/5

Very nice Restaurant The food is borderline salty for my family's taste buds. I thought my dish was pretty good. It's right up there with Pappadeauxs. On Sunday's they have live Jazz which is excellent. I still would highly recommend this restaurant.Food: 4/5

What an experience. Stopped in during a visit from out of town and I'm so glad I did. My daughter and I both had the Mardi Gras Stuffed Potatoe, it was absolutely delicious. The potato was perfectly cooked, the flavors were amazing, no salt, pepper, or hot sauce needed. Destiny provided us excellent customer service. The environment was nice with a constant flow of guest. I am so glad I took a chance and visited your location. Vegetarian options: Creamy Veggie Pasta Kid-friendliness: Visited with my nine year old, she loved it. I also noticed several other guest with younger children. They also provide kid friendly options on the menu.

Great restaurant. The boudin egg rolls were delicious. The fish and shrimp were great as well.Food: 5/5

Sorry for the delay in this review, but I had to comment. It was an early evening quick stop. We wanted to try this establishment and were really not hungry so we didn’t eat a ton. I was in search of a happy hour special and I was not disappointed with the shrimp. It was a decent experience. The flavors were authentically spicy and rich. The shrimp were incredibly tasty and a definite standout 4 was NOT enough. They were not cheap even with happy hour prices and I honestly could have ate 2 dozen! The shrimp were bursting with the perfect blend of seasonings of sweet and spicy. They did accommodate not putting rice in my gumbo. The gumbo was okay but the shrimp were over the moon delicious. The young lady was friendly and the atmosphere was cozy which added to the overall experience. The drinks were really delicious too. I only gave them 4 stars because I thought the prices were a bit more than I expected I’m super frugal so maybe it’s just me

I had never been to this restaurant and it did not disappoint. The restaurant space was cozy and our server was attentive. My group and I ordered appetizers of spinach dip and fries. The chips included with the dip we’re awesome, but the dip itself was a little salty, but it was okay. The fries were wonderful and I could have eaten just those. Our entrees came out in a reasonable amount of time and we’re HOT which was a very pleasant surprise. This restaurant epitomizes southern comfort now I need one closer to where I live.

The food, service, and atmosphere were great, and my drink was not bad. Food: salmon Pontchartrain presentation and taste, are not too bad, but I wish the sauces were slightly thicker and I tasted cheese in what was supposed to be cheese grits. My friend had Cajan pasta, which I tasted, it too was tasty with a nice cajan kick, but once again, I prefer thicker sauce a little less soupy. The same goes for the crawfish queso appetizer, with the fried flour tortillas, the queso should not be that soupy. Drink: Mardi Gras punch- Perfect!! Service: Perfect, they patiently answer questions and make suggestions. Atmosphere: the outside patio was a nice relaxing area with a good view. Overall I will be back and definitely want to try a couple of other menu items and drinks.

It was graduation weekend, so the only complaint would be the long wait to get a table on the patio. The food was delicious. They had live saxophone music and full bar. I had the sampler shrimp ettoufe, gumbo, rice and beans. We will be back.Food: 5/5
