Scales Cafe

They catered a wedding for us in Thrall, TX, last weekend and did a fantastic job. (about 140 people) Lots of variety - including a vegetarian entrée. Catfish, Cajun chicken, and gumbo were great, too!

Scales is a wonderful hidden gem. I have eaten there many times and the food is always amazing . The shrimp and waffles is beyond words and the staff is just as great super friendly. They even have karaoke every other Saturday
Can't wait to ho back

Let me tell you about this yummy find! We stumbled upon this gem 2 years ago and they catered our vow renewal. They have a Facebook page that keeps you up to date on daily specials and all the events. I had been drooling over their page for weeks and finally was able to make it in. Well I decided to come by on a Thursday and have lunch. The catfish was fresh and cooked just right. The Mac and cheese and the waffle stole the show!! I love chef scales Mac!

And guess what we came right back the next day and had the catfish Opelousas with crawfish sauce. Ooooohhhh and that crab ball is so worth it. I want just a whole plate of them!!

Service was great.
Price was great.
Hamburger was great.
Breakfast sandwich was great.
Biscuits and gravy were rather bland, and the biscuits tasted super floury.
Breakfast taco was okay, but weird due to the fried egg in it.
Chicken fried steak was tasty, but we found a piece of metal (from something like a scrubbing pad) in it.

We might try again.

EVERYTHING we ordered was good to the last drop. OMG it was seasoned to perfection. The owner and his family were so kind. We laughed and talked about the food. If you are looking for good New Orleans style eating...this is the place to visit. The seafood taste like it was fresh out the water, not packaged or processed.
Good food and Good people!!
