Why Locals Love Peewees Crabcakes Of Harvey

Nestled in the heart of Harvey, Louisiana, Peewees Crabcakes Of Harvey is a vibrant culinary gem that celebrates the rich and bold flavors of Southern seafood with a modern twist. Specializing in an irresistible blend of fresh seafood and traditional Southern cooking, this restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Louisiana fare that truly sings with flavor.

The star attraction here is undoubtedly their signature crabcakes — famously rich and tender, they offer a perfect balance of savory crab meat and just the right hint of seasoning, earning glowing reviews from first-timers and seafood lovers alike. But the menu goes far beyond crabcakes, presenting a soul-satisfying array of dishes crafted with an artful touch.

For pasta lovers, dishes like the Seafood Who Dat Pasta are a mouthwatering showcase of shrimp and crawfish delicately tossed with southern fried catfish and a crabcake, wrapping you in layers of texture and flavor. The Chicken And Sausage Jambalaya Pasta is another crowd favorite, melding the smoky depth of sausage with tender chicken in a hearty, comforting jambalaya pasta served alongside fried fish and a luscious crabcake.

If potatoes are your thing, prepare for a flavor explosion with specialties like the Loaded Crab Cake Potato, a decadent baked potato brimming with cheddar cheese, southern fried fish, not one but two crabcakes, all smothered in a savory crab meat sauce. This dish alone is enough to make any seafood aficionado’s mouth water instantly. The Loaded Shrimp Potato and Loaded Crawfish Potato follow suit, each loaded with fresh seafood sauces and cheese, delivering comfort with a gourmet punch.

For those seeking a grand feast, the special pans such as the Seafood Disaster offer an extravagant spread featuring the seafood who dat pasta, steamed broccoli, fried catfish, two signature crabcakes, and a stuffed lobster tail, an indulgence that truly lives up to its name. The Fried Seafood Platter and Seafood Tornado are equally tempting, perfect for sharing or treating yourself to a taste of coastal Louisiana's finest.

The dining model here is takeout-focused, allowing you to enjoy high-quality, expertly prepared dishes in the comfort of your own space. While you won’t find dine-in seating, the welcoming atmosphere in the interaction with the friendly staff and even Chef Peewee himself—who’s known to greet guests and share a photo opportunity—adds a personal touch that resonates deeply with patrons.

Customers rave about the freshness and depth of flavor. As one delighted first-timer put it, the loaded seafood potato literally “melts in your mouth,” bursting with well-balanced, powerful Southern flavors. Regulars appreciate the quality and portion sizes, noting that while prices hover a bit on the higher side, each bite justifies every penny. From the perfectly seasoned salmon plate to the standout jambalaya egg rolls and the homemade deviled eggs, every dish speaks of dedication and culinary pride.

What truly sets Peewees Crabcakes Of Harvey apart is the fusion of soulful comfort food with a refined seafood experience. It’s a celebration of Louisiana’s coastal bounty presented with heart and flair, making it a standout destination for seafood lovers and anyone eager to dive into a uniquely rich taste of Harvey’s local flavor.

When I say the loaded seafood potato LITERALLY melts in your mouth it really does!!!! So flavorful! It was my first time trying them and I will DEFINITELY be back to try more things. IT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY! High quality food! Top tier! Y’all come check them out. They won’t disappoint. I’m not too big on crab cakes, but it’s just something different about this one.

Amazing food! Im from Lafitte which is the best of the best seafood & let me tell you this tops it without me having to go all the way down to Lafitte! Prices were amazing considering especially with the food being takeout, it was 10/10. We met Peewee years ago on a parade route then heard of the first restaurant, followed there. Now he has one on the westbank. Absolutely delicious food & honestly one of the few spots we eat out anymore! Lol our 4 year old absolutely loved everything.

Everything was delicious!!!!!! Flavorful, just perfect. Got to try it for yourself. The other reviews had me a bit dismayed but I am glad I took the chance and tried this location. The salmon plate was bomb, the deviled eggs were great as well as the jambalaya egg rolls!

I went in to give the gumbo a try after reading the MID review. Let me tell you this. They have the BEST gumbo on the Westbank. Very consistent with the flavor and tons of meat. I go at least 2/3 times a week now.

We were in the New Orleans, visiting from Detroit, looking for somewhere away from the crowd of Bourbon street. We found this restaurant and it did not disappoint! The honey Hennessy was spectacular! The sauce was succulent blend of sweet and a touch of heat with green and red peppers! My sister and I ordered the seafood stuffed potato, it did not disappoint. Everything was seasoned impeccably.Not to mention the customer services was perfect. It was one gentleman ensuring everyone in the lobby was taken care of! All the way to bringing an order to the parking lot! Anytime I visit, I will make sure I stop in!
