Today on Texas Eats NOW: Crawfish King (KSAT 2026)CRAWFISH KING<\/p>\n

8142 Shin Oak Dr, Live Oak, TX 78233<\/p>\n

Crawfish King is a veteran-connected, Lao-Asian fusion restaurant in Live Oak that has been serving up fresh seafood and bold, pan-Asian flavors for eight years. Co-owner Jet Chan built the concept out of a food truck before settling into a brick-and-mortar location, learning his craft from his father and the home cooking traditions of Lao, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisine.<\/p>\n

The crawfish are boiled in a deeply seasoned pot loaded with lemons, oranges, onions, celery, and jalape\u00f1os, then finished with a garlic-forward house sauce that loyal customers have repeatedly tried to purchase by the bottle. The menu extends well beyond the signature boils, featuring Goldband oysters, Thai yuk rye New York strips, and a whole deep-fried fish topped with tamarind, peanuts, and bell peppers.<\/p>\n

Today the family-owned operation \u2014 now led by CEO Elysia Trevi\u200b\u00f1o-Gonzales \u2014 manufactures and ships its products to stores across 48 states and internationally. The product line spans beer salts, fiesta shakers, and michelada mixes, all developed in-house.<\/p>\n

Rosario\u2019s is a longstanding Southtown institution serving bold, scratch-made Mexican cuisine from a spacious multilevel space in the heart of the neighborhood.

The Griselda Callejeros, chile relleno, and cheese enchiladas are all standouts that exemplify San Antonio Tex-Mex cuisine. Upstairs on the rooftop, the bar menu includes a prickly pear macalito \u2014 a non-alcoholic take on a mojito \u2014 and the top-selling watermelon mint margarita made with Patr\u00f3n barrel select, both of which will blow you away.<\/p>\n
