Reviews for Hook & Reel Cajun Seafood & Bar in Killeen, TX

This place definitely is a vibe. IT HAS A BAR!! The music was great if you're into R &B and soul, which I'm. So my wife and I... were able to sing to each other, lol. The bartenders did switch shifts but both were great and took great care of us. I forgotexactly what I ordered drink wise but it had rum in it which I'm not a fan of. We were there during happy hour so the drinkswere inexpensive. The food... my crab legs were over cooked and small as hell. Every time I cracked a shell I had to gofishing inside fo the meat. It's annoying. Other then that the rest of my seafood was on point... SMH. I wish they had peeledshrimp... OK. Other than that everything was on point and and even received some free shots. Definitely a spot to check out. Read more

My wife and I have a favorite seafood boil place down in Florida and now that we are in the Killeen area we are happy to find a... nice place to crush on some seafood once again. Definitely recommend. I recommend not getting the house seasoning without askingfor a sample first, it is a lot of flavors all together. Read more

Aside from the Manager yelling at an employee at literally the next table, this is the best dining experience in Killeen by a... long shot. Our food was exceptionally tasty. The drinks were not too strong, and not too sweet. Read more

A sample of all the boil items placed in the Perfect Storm that I could eat in 1 sitting. Mussels are huge. Haven't seen any... that size. Everything was delicious with the Hook Reel special blend sauce. Added an order of Boiled eggs and sausage. Calledthe order in for pickup. Great pickup experience. Would have preferred the corn ???? a little sweeter and juicier. Read more

The food was exceptional. Atmosphere was right, good music. Only thing that could've been better was the time in which it took... to receive the food. 20min to get our drinks, way too long. All in all it was a positive experience. Read more

Great seafood boil, but the other dishes I had were really disappointing. First the good, the shrimp head on so buttery,... garlicky and with broccoli, now I can eat all my vegetables as long as they're drenched in butter. Fried oysters and calamari,they're fried so delicious. But the the sweet potato fries were left under the the heat lamp way too long, inedible, so dry andtexture of a boot. Crab roll way too much sauce with crab that tasted like it came from a can. Pasta was mediocre just mixedwith marinara, with boiled mussels. Voila seafood pasta. Overall fun experience but next time stick to the boil and maybe friedseafood on the side. Read more

I can't believe I waited so long to go to this place it was super good. The service was amazing and the food was delicious ????... it is hard to find good decent seafood in the area and normally we just go to HEB or a food truck but this place is great. Iwould have given it 5 stars but we ordered the crab fries and it would have been. Great dish is the fries would have been hotbut they were cold so I was a bit disappointed. I got the mini shrimp boil and I love that they mix it for you at the table andit was hot and delicious. The drinks are also amazing a frozen Margarita always hits the spot. Read more

The price for 4 of us was amazing. Our boys loved their meals. My crab legs were so juicy and cooked to perfection. My wife... absolutely loved her meal. Our wonderful waitress (Luci) was awesome. We will be eating there again. Thank you all so much. Read more
