It’s prime crawfish season, yet backyards across the city are empty. We may not be able to have those familiar crawfish boils we all know and love, but that shouldn’t stop us from getting our hands on some tasty mudbugs before the season ends. There are still several restaurants in the city that are serving up some delicious crawfish, and we’ve listed some of our favorites. Be sure to call ahead to check for prices and availability before popping over to pick up your order!
