Chasin’ Tails

If nothing makes you happier than sucking crawfish heads and getting your fingers dirty, head to this East Falls Church eatery, where the kitchen serves up Cajun fare year-round. On Mardi Gras, they’ll be offering specials on hurricanes, beers and crawfish, plus gift card and T-shirt giveaways. The regular menu also includes low-country seafood boils, oysters, hush puppies, fried gator bites, jambalaya, gumbo and “fish bowl” margaritas.
