This place is at the top of my list! I live approximately 45 minutes away but it is worth every bit of the drive there. I only have a difficult time drive back home because I always overeat! I have been eating there for 15 plus years is the best I can remember and never have I been disappointed. They are the greatest in service, quantity and quality!

The catfish is real, not Baca or tilapia or any of the fish that restaurants pass off as catfish, it's real grain fed catfish...it's off the chain. ...I was there for all you can eat, catfish...i could not eat all on the first plate..even the salad was excellent. .the onion rings...wow..has a kick to 'em...the service excellent. ...wish I had more stars to give ....
This is a great little restaurant in Alexandria. Food is great! But the best thing they have is the dessert. The bread pudding from this restaurant is the best you will ever tasted. It just melts in your mouth. I promise here you will definitely want to save room for the dessert.
Awesome! Catfish is perfect and the crawfish is nice and spicy. The portions are big and the prices are really reasonable. Best local food we have had so far.
Yummy!. Definitely worth the visit. Boiled crawfish was great and the shrimp poboy was excellent. Fried pickles were ok, but the broccoli cheese bites were out of this world AMAZING. Would highly recommend! PS - Don't be scared of the outside of the building, it is one of "those" places you want to drive by without giving a second look but the food an atmosphere inside definitely make up for the outside's appearance! Big thank you to our waitress too, who took the time to answer all of our questions about the local cuisine.
The shrimp po boys were pretty good. Place is nice. Sadly however the girl behind the register on 2/15 at lunch was not at all friendly and actually was pretty rude. She needs to fix her attitude.
Service was a little slow but the food more than made up for it. Would certainly come back.
Great fOod!!! Catfish and shrimp breaded and fried perfectly. Only down side was there was only one waitress working and that poor girl was running everywhere. Great place
Robbie G's Restaurant, Alexandria LA. My 2nd time to Alexandria; and you bet that I came back to Robbie G's for some great craw-fish, fried catfish and fried pickles ! Excellent service; all at a great price !
Great value & excellent food. Some reviewers stated that service was poor - our waitress was very quick & friendly. Will definitely go back when in area
I would eat here again.. Went on Friday night 2/3/12 @ 5 pm when they opened. Glad we got there early. Several tables were ordering crawfish. I had fried catfish - very good - thin strips the way I like them. HOMEMADE onion rings made from red onions - AWESOME! Fried eggplant - GREAT! Food was hot. Waitress was attentive. it's a hole in the wall but those always seem to be the best places, right?
Food was good ESP the duck breast po-boy. Service was poor and if you call about service hours, they will lie to you over the phone even if your parked in front of the building.
This place is a must try if you’re in the area, especially if it’s crawfish season.
The service is excellent. It is a roadside boil house, very casual, very local and they treat you like a regular.
I had the crawfish (3 lbs, spicey) and they were almost perfect. 95% of the bugs were fresh, but there were a few in my plate that were older/frozen (if the meat sticks to the shell and is mushy, that’s some frozen crawfish).
The spice level was perfect (I like it really spicy, and they delivered on that … my eyes even watered a bit for the first 15-20 bugs).
Good section of beers and beverages.
The bread pudding was the best I’ve ever had. I should say that I haven’t really had a lot of bread pudding in my life, but I read the reviews and figured I’d have to try it.
It is amazing!!! Flat out incredible. But now I feel like I’m spoiled and will not be able to get bread pudding anywhere else this good (guess I’ll have to come back).
Great crawfish & shrimp (fried or boiled). Fast service. Friendly staff. Solid choice for a family meal or gathering of friends.
