An Austin arm of the Papas chain from Houston, Pappadeaux is the 300-pound gorilla of the local Cajun seafood scene. Moderately pricey, loud, and raucous, and you’re assured of a wait. Monstrous portions of all manner of sea critters, available fried, blackened, broiled, or grilled, are the thing here. Try eating at the bar to avoid the wait and the crush of eager diners.
