Rocky's Tails & Shells: Reviews & Ratings
A yummy classic! Great po boys, catfish, and chicken! The new fried banana pepper appetizer is fantastic. Service was pleasant and friendly. I've heard it's busy towards dinner but lunch was smooth sailing:) also a drive through if you are in a rush!
I ordered the club burger with sweet potato fries. First time there and the service was wonderful. The workers was very friendly and helpful. If you haven't been here then you need to stop and try their food out. The club burger was just right. Seasoned well and the burger patty was juicy and tender. The combination of a club sandwich with a burger..... best idea. I will be back there again.
Whenever I am in the town of Bunkie Louisiana, I have to stop at Rocky's. The food is fresh and delicious. As for desert, be sure to ask for Brandy's famous bread pudding.. its slap yo mama great!
Absolutely delicious food, I recommend. The service was a little bit slow to bring our food, but they checked on us. The atmosphere was nice, there was nice 90's music, but the elderly was a bit rowdy.
Excellent food. Excellent service. Excellent selection. Gator, gumbo and etouffee were great. Highly recommend!!!!!
Busy during crawfish season. Always a great visit in Bunkie with family.
I absolutely love this little gem when coming in to visit family. Unfortunately we didn’t get to have our fill of crawfish, but the Cajun Pasta was amazing! Our server Crystal was the best! Very attentive, friendly, and so sweet. We shall be back Rocky’s!
Nice place, wonderful food and service. Some of the best crawfish you'll eat!
