    Food was delicious! We ordered the boil and added corn bread to our order. Server was friendly and the restaurant was inviting. My husband and i will be bringing our family next time.

    We came here mainly for crawfish, and they did not disappoint! Everything was customizable and we felt that it was worth the amount that we ordered. We did the mix of all 3 sauces - it was really good once it marinaded, but first off was heavy on the lemon pepper. Our server was very diligent in the set up when the food came and we appreciated his thoroughness from setting up our table to packing up leftovers. Overall, the food and experience met our expectations, we only wish that our server checked up on us more outside of taking our order, serving and bringing us our check. We would definitely come here again but be mindful of the varying service! Additionally, we really liked the decor inside and the music was boppin (2000s rnb).

    This is a local spot that's great for families. I was pleasantly surprised by the food and the flavors—just a note, it is a BYOB establishment. We ordered the calamari and chose the mild seasoning, which was perfect. Do yourself a favor and avoid wearing anything that you might accidentally stain, as the place has a super casual vibe, and you’ll be eating with your hands (don’t worry, they provide gloves). I definitely plan to return.

    I'd rather have my food served on a plate than in a bag.

    Everything we ordered was excellent. From the soup, to the sides, to the shrimp and snow crab. Flavorful and perfectly portioned. Great value for the price too. We will definitely be going back.

    Excellent food. Snow crab is my favorite and here it was fresh, perfectly cooked. Lemon pepper sauce was solid. Onion rings and corn bread were awesome. Wish they offered a little sweet and sour sauce with their onion rings.
