Hubby and I ate here. To add to our seafood boil rotation. The sauce was bland and just didn't taste good. Had to pay extra for sausage. As it didn't come with our boils. Service was good. But, not that bland medium house sauce !!!

This place was absolute trash. When we walked in we were asked how many? There were 3 of us. Was rudely told to go wait outside We waited until we were called in and seated. While outside we looked over the menu. So once seated we had questions since it was our first time there. The waiter took about 18 minutes to stop by the table to ask if we were ready to order. We asked our questions. Waiter walked off. Waiter came back some time later and we ordered. * Shrimp n grits- shrimps were way under cooked and not edible. Imagine rocks in your mouth. Shrimp was rubbery. *Fried shrimp basket- shrimp was rubbery and old at the same time. Grease was definitely old. *Cajun boil - 1lb of crab legs (1cluster), 1/2lb of shrimp (4shrimp), 2 potatoes. All priced at market ordered spicy. The crab boil was terrible. We asked the waiter if we could have some extra seasoning because it was bland and he stated its going to be an extra charge. I was baffled by that by whatever, its bland it needs something. After asking sever times the waiter finally brought a cup of broth and slammed it on the table. It taste like ramen noodle juice. Literally. So after a horrible experience I asked the waiter how was the food prepared. His response, its boiled then they put it in a bag and pour the juice on it. NO WONDER IT TASTES LIKE NOTHING. Its boiled in plain water then flavor is poured on top. If youve ever had a true crab boil even in bag, you know that this process is incorrect. Also if you know anything about seafood you know that rubbery shrimp is subpar. Also, you can kinda have an idea what a pound or half pound is. My recommendations .. if you know better.. dont frequent this establishment. Its not worth it. For our horrible experience, we received a 5% discount. The only thing that was eaten was the crab cluster and fried shrimp. All that and parking is extremely limited. (Understated) Oh, their lemons are great!! Very fresh. Would I return? No, not even if it was free. We should have eaten at Popeyes next door. 10/10 do not recommend!!!!!!!

Alright guys . I tried to give it a second chance . Welllll I cant get the 30min back ( at noon on a Friday) it took to get my order. Guys I only got the garlic noodles!!! And from order to counter it was 32min !!! I was told 10-15 min. There went my entire lunch period !!! There was no concern after asking twice about the amount of time it was taking for one simple dish. Theeeeeen I asked the young lady working at the counter if I could have a glass of water as Im chocking back a cough. She says give me A min. Eyes are watering, tears falling down my cheek. She is standing there chatting it up with the other employee. I ask again if I can please have the water. She ( lol) tells me YA , give me a second ok . I said if you dont mind Im just chocking over here at the bar. Im still around so I did finally get the cup of water. And finally I get the noodles. Honestly they had great flavor HOWEVER were on the dry side with A LOT of parm cheese on top. It kind of acted like sawdust. Hopefully they get better with time management and perfecting the dishes.
