There was a little bit of a wait on a Friday night. There were three waitresses for the whole establishment and they were getting whooped. I felt so sorry for them. She got my son’s order wrong but they were so busy we just made do. All the food tasted great though and that’s what truly matters!Parking: Very many spaces around the building. Handicaps right at the front.Wheelchair accessibility: This place would be easily accessible for any person in a wheelchair. There is no incline up to the door. It’s at ground level. There are double doors at the front. All the tables are actual tables and chairs so you could eat at any one you’d Kiki’s if you were in a wheelchair. ?

This is the same chain that is popular in the Alabama gulf coast region. The food is every bit as good as you’d find there. Several AYCE specials, large portions. Always freshly cooked to order. Options are traditional fried seafood, steamed/boiled, blackened and grilled. You can order most dishes as a full dinner or half portion for smaller appetites. Children’s menu is available. Key Lime Pie is fantastic for dessert.

Went twice. . First time we didn't stay and eat there is a smell when you walk up to the door that just turned our stomachs and we couldn't go in and eat. I think it's coming from behind the building somewhere but it's an overwhelming smell it's horrible could be the grease trap outside or hotel behind it. Second visit we tried again good food but too pricey for the portions you get. Plus the waiter didn't really pay attention to us or other tables. Was too busy talking or checking phone.Parking: Lots all way around the building. Plenty spaces.Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly for sure. But adult friendly satisfaction as wellWheelchair accessibility: Yes they have handicapped spaces and accessible large sidewalks and inclines for wheelchair accessible.

Two friends and I had a wonderful all-you-can-eat catfish dinner on March 14. Our waitress, Jaquisha, was friendly, efficient and polite. She gave us excellent service and the food was top notch. My first time there, but it won't be my last! Thanks for a lovely night out.

The food and service is good. I go here all the time. I usually get the fried shrimp and corn nuggets (I dip them in ranch). Which I always have to get extra of! I have one complaint that I noticed last time I ordered. The cocktail sauce had toooo much horseradish in it! About burned my nostrils out! Plz. Adjust the amount in the cocktail sauce.

Danielle C. was the best part of the visit! She went above and beyond what I have ever experienced and I am not young.Fried fish is close to perfect! Steamed shrimp had an “unusual spice” (not one I care for).Very friendly place!!Ask for Danielle C., you won’t be disappointed!!

It's okay. How you got a seafood boil without boiled eggs and you really don't get your money's worth.

Waited 10 minutes to be seated by a hostess just for it to take another 15 minutes for our order to be taken. Ordered the all you can eat Shrimp but the manager/waitress waited until after our second order to say we could not share it amongst the table. Understandable but why wait to tell us this important info. Not to mention our second order "order" contained maybe 10 pieces of popcorn shrimp.

Me and my fiancee had the seafood boil for two. The sauce (Sweet heat) was amazing. Definitely filled us up! Had the boom boom shrimp and crab claws for appetizers (2 of our favs)Also had oysters tht unfortunately were over cooked. But the waiter was great. Food came out in a timely manner. Overall we had a good experience.

This was my first time at the Shrimp Basket here in Tuscaloosa. The atmosphere was nice and my server Dawn was excellent. She went above and beyond asking if I needed refills on my drinks or if everything was to my liking. Thank you for having her as one of your staff and having a great atmosphere and great food.
