The food was amazing. Had swordfish w crab and dirty rice. Salmon with crab. A steak, poor Boy, alligator appetizer some cocktails and some other dishes. We had a decent size party. Carlos was our server and was phenomenal and provided the best service possible. Our drinks never were empty, our food came in the proper order w perfect timing between appetizers, salad and main course.

I've always enjoy coming back to Pappadeaux whenever I would come into Phoenix for work the last 7 years it's different now because I have decided to live in AZ permanently! In fact we celebrated the closing of our house at the restaurant. However this was only my husband second visit to the restaurant. Love the service and how tentative our server and bartender were. They wanted to check what kind of white wine I'd like for my spritz! No one ever asked that, and my Martini was made with my favorite vodka Chopin. Make a reservation if you want to come in for dinner. Warning!! It's yummy!

Pappadeaux is one of my favorite seafood spots to visit. I eat here often when I have a taste for seafood. As usual, Pappadeaux stays busy, so it's best to make reservations. This visit, my server was Alex, she was working! I really appreciated her service and her hustle and bustle as she worked her tables. I ordered the Crispy Salmon & Jumbo Crab, I believe this was my first time trying this dish. Overall, this dish was good. I will be honest and say, I thought because the dish is called Crispy Salmon, that the salmon was going to be crispy, that's really the main reason I ordered it . The salmon just seemed to be pan seared, no crispy skin, no crispy crust. Don't get me wrong the dish was still good, but for me that was the only thing missing.

We met our companions for our monthly dining together. It was my turn to pick a place, and I took Yelp's advice to visit Pappadeaux. The service was fantastic and the food was great. All 5 star. The noise, OMG the noise! is what kept this to a 4. We skipped appetizers, knowing portions were large, but did enjoy the very nice bread/butter while we waited. My wife had the Pappas greek salad and I had the seafood tagliatelle pasta. Both were incredibly good. My pasta was cooked perfectly and loaded with seafood, especially octopus. The two sauteed shrimp on top were so good, with a nice cajun spice and a perfect texture. The white sauce was as creamy as one could hope (thank you for the toast to sop it up!), and while the portion was very generous, I nearly finished it off! My wife reports that her salad was excellent, with a great blend of kalamata olives, peppers, feta, herbs, and a nice greek-style dressing. Our friends had the swordfish (him) and the fried shrimp (her). Both were great, and everyone had to have one of the shrimp with the dipping sauce. We usually have a desert or two, often shared, but were too satiated to even try. When we come back, and we will, I might have to lean into the key lime pie. As to the noise, the dinning room is quite large with nothing but hard surfaces, so the noise just bounces around and amplifies. We had to speak up and lean in to talk with each other, and we discussed how a person with hearing problems might be lost in the roar. Next time we will opt for outside seating (but not July/August!) or ask if they have a more muffled/quiet area. If you are OK with a very noisy place, go. The food is great and the service is terrific.

Food is amazing especially their stuffed crab. Service so far is amazing! Seating is fast too especially with it being crowded all the time. It has yet to disappoint!

The food here was really tasty. But emphasis must be placed on the Roasted Oyster appetizer. That was the best dish here by far. All of the food tasted fresh and came out fairly quickly. The request I made for my catfish to be "extra crispy" was fulfilled perfectly. We came during lunch and they had a full lunch menu that runs from 11am-3pm and the portions are incredibly generous.

My fiancé brought us here for our 1 year and I enjoyed it. The ambiance was fancy Nancy with a romantic fine setting. The salmon salad plate was wonderful! The crab dip and bread was good too, although I thought it was a bit on the salty side. 4/5 for the experience here because our waiter was very accommodating and kind :)

We had a dinner here late last night I ordered a glass of Chardonnay and our server recommended her favorite brand so I tried and it did not disappoint. She is very helpful attentive and friendy. Food was great as usual. I love their fried catfish but forgot to take a pic. The place is very clean and roomy, outdoor sitting has misters and fan but we chose to seat inside to be more comfortable cus it was still hot out Overall, our diner experience was espectacular

A first timer for stopping into Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen and I dined alone. My server was phenomenal and I thought I had saved her name, but did not unfortunately. I believe her name started with a B and was like Brexly. My memory recalls it being fairly unique and I wanted to ensure I had to personally shout out her exceptional service as she was so friendly! My apologies if way off on her name and hope if the management team/owner sees they can provide recognition. When seated, I was greatly fairly promptly but did have some time to review the menu to be able to ask some questions while taking my beverage order. I ordered a Coke with lime, and loved that at the time of refill she brought a dish of limes to have at the ready. Also, I was given some recommendations and mentioned what I initially had my eye on (Jumbo Sea Scallops & Shrimp Risotto). Typically I stick to meat free, but I decided to see how I would fare with seafood. Grateful she mentioned this dish was great as I love risotto! Especially when there are mushrooms. The dish was $42.95 and was totally worth it! Delicate and rich flavors with such a large portion. One of my favorite risotto dishes out in the valley. Love the whole vibe of this establishment from the outside courtyard with water feature to the decor inside. Though I've never been to the French Quarter, from all the photos and movie depictions I feel this is spot on. Definitely a location I would love to return and will recommend to those who love seafood!
