My tastebuds had one of the best experiences here…but really….it was all amazing. Super friendly staff. Tried the seafood gumbo, lobster roll and shrimp po’boy. The freshness, the sauce, the cajun seasoning on the fries … all so good. Worth checking out. Can’t wait to come back!!!

I really enjoy a good seafood boil, and this place has to be my favorite! I've tried others, and they just pale in comparison.. The sauce is phenomenal, the food is always amazing, and the staff are awesome as well!

We celebrated our sons 1st birthday here, and the food, thoughtful setup, and service were amazing for over 100 people from 11am-3pm. We even ran over a bit, and they were so understanding. They allowed us to come in early to set up too! Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the catered style event.

Good fresh seafood at market value prices. As well as other non seafood dishes available. The staff were attentive to put needs and on point at checking whenever we needed anything. The food was delicious and had a very nice home cooked vibe to it. The only thing I found weird was that everything was served in disposable dishes, with the exception of an occasional basket for fries or the bar drinks. Otherwise it was pleasant and I would recommend and even dare to go back.
