There was only one waitperson for the whole place so service was understandably a bit slow. But the calamari was like eating rubber bands. Don’t order the shrimp unless you like shrimp poop. We were offered a plastic knife and a toothpick to clean them. I have been to many places that had peel and eat shrimp and there were no issues with those poop veins. However, the clams were very good.

I went there with my family for lunch on Saturday. The waiter, Trinity, was nice and friendly. I ordered 1 lb of green muscles. I was surprised that the muscles in the bag was tasteless and very little sauce was added. We couldn't even taste the sauce on the muscle meat. I asked the waiter if they can add little sauce and she told me that they can not because they add only a measured portion of sauce and if I need more they will charge me extra $2.5. I told her but I can't eat it like that, it is dry when it suppose to be juicy. She said will talk to the manager to see if she can do something about it. Then the manager confirmed that they can't add more sauce unless they charge me. Then she said if you don't want it I can take it back and take it of your bill. I told her no just leave it that is ok it is my fault that I chose to come here. But frankly I was really upset not because of money but I didn't digest the concept.I like hot N Juicy but this experience will make me think twice before I go to this location on Mayo Blvd.

Big shout out to Vivian for making my family of four generations dinner spectacular. She offered to take photos for use and was nice and helpful throughout the meal. Everyone in my family walked out talking about how good the food was and how much fun they had, all thanks to Vivian. Will go back again.

Today we were in a restaurant for the first time, we ordered a "Juicy experience" for $34 to take away. We love crawfish with corn and potatoes, I still remember our trip to Louisiana.. but today I was completely disappointed.The food is not tasty. But that’s not even the main thing. The crayfish and shrimp were stale, the meat was loose and unpleasant, the corn was overcooked and soft like porridge. Shrimp with black sides, and even potatoes that are dark inside and taste bad.The only decent ones were the sausages, but I'm not too excited to try a cheap sausage for $40 (34 + tax and tip).I’m completely disappointed and I hope I don’t get poisoned by trying this stale seafood. I would like to get my money back, but I have no idea how to do it, it was a take-out order.

Can't go wrong with shrimp and corn! Hot n juicy is very clean and has a welcoming atmosphere. The service is very great and the servers are friendly and knowledgable. It's nice having a hot n juicy close to home now so I can scratch my shrimp itch!

Not a good experience. I felt so bad for the hostess/waitress...she literally held down the ENTIRE front of house. This review is more about the food. It wasn't good. The peel and eat shrimp was more like peel-clean-eat. Hmmm, why? The mussels still had the beard on 95% of them. I really liked HNJ when they first opened but I won't come back based off the uncleaned seafood. And yes, restaurants can order seafood pre-cleaned or have the prep cook clean it before it's cooked and sent to the table. I hope HNJ turns it around and does better.
The food was amazing as usual. Our server was great! It was pretty full but it didn't feel like it was too loud to bear. It was overall a good experience.

Very disappointed. Both the shrimp and crawfish were over cooked to the point of mushy. Shrimp was unpeelable. Crawfish tails had zero
