My husband and our family have been here numerous times before but this particular time it was just he and I. We had already agreed to make this our official spot for seafood since the service was always great and seafood is excellent. The seafood is never overcooked or undercooked and the mussels are amazing! Shrimp is already deveined, snow crab legs have tons of meat in them, and the lobster tails are a nice size as well as the seasonings are good just a little salty. One Saturday night we got there maybe an hour before closing and it was packed like we have never seen it before. We weren't greeted this time so we stood there for awhile waiting for someone to seat us. Someone came and she looked lost and confused it was very chaotic and unorganized this night. We asked to sit on the left side where we usually sit but the owner said it was not open due to cleaning which was odd because others were sitting in that section. We finally got seated and the waitress came by named Ladresha she was very polite and made sure we were comfortable, took our order, brought out the cajun crispy wings which are delicious and very crunchy with fries. Then a while has passed and our boiled seafood was brought out. We both asked for no spicy and she seemed to still put mine under mild which I noticed by taste instantly and it was on the order ticket. I was a little disappointed but it was to late for a redo. She was very attentive but kept forgetting to bring out small stuff we requested (butter, ranch dressing etc). I really dislike how the prices change so often. Usually we we come on slow days they give us the special 29.99 for all except the lobster pack. But this time things were priced higher ranging from $5-15 extra per pack than what we have seen in the past since they were busy. Also, they shorted me on my shrimp this time! I usually have some to go home with. Plus the restaurant wasn't as clean as it was the last times we came it was messy and chaotic the workers were everywhere! It was just to much! Oh and normally they double bag up our seafood boil but this time we had to do it ourselves! Overall, I will give them another try. We will just come on the quiet days which are better service even waited on by the owner and his wife which are very nice. I just wish they would stop increasing and price changing all of the time and get more workers to be more organized.

Suddenly had a craving for crawfish and didn't want to go to the LA place. Did a quick search, and this place is nearby. It is in a quiet shopping center, but been here for a while. Ordered some takeout crawfish and some side dishes. The crawfish was good and very juicy. The sauce was good and had more of the Vietnamese Cajun flavor. Ordered the corn/potatos/sausages also and they were all cooked well, especially the big sweet corn. Some other dishes ordered included fried rice, which was surprisingly good (owner is asian). Chicken wings were also flavorful and tasty. Little disappointed with the lack of dipping sauce, however. Good seafood place and reasonable price. I would recommend.

We’ve been here 3 times and the food, service and atmosphere were excellent each time. We love the boils and the crawfish & shrimp fried rice - they are delicious & always seasoned well (I recommend the house sauce medium). I also love that they slice the sausage in the boils. They don’t overcook the seafood and their prices are more than reasonable for the amount of food you receive. The restaurant is always clean and this has quickly become one of our favorite places to eat. We’ll definitely be back! Here’s a before and after of our boil 😋.

They don’t clean their blue crabs before boiling. Why would I want to clean my crab and then eat it? And the small taste of it I took was bland. Though their fried rice was good, I would never eat there again because I can’t trust a restaurant that doesn’t prepare their food correctly.
