“Oh my God! It tastes like Christmas at grandmas house in Georgia. THIS is what I’ve been looking for. I’m new from the east coast & soul food is hard to come by in this city. I had the catfish, greens & beans, unfortunately they were out of Mac n cheese, but judging by the catfish & greens I already know the Mac b cheese will not disappoint. I’ll be back every weekend for sure.“

“We went on a Saturday evening, it was completely empty so we had the place to ourselves pretty much. The lady attending us was very sweet and patient when it came to us ordering. The food was ready within 10 minutes of ordering. My boyfriend loved his food and so did it. It was far less expensive than other places. We paid $50 for our food which included drinks. The lady didn’t bother us while eating and she even set up plates, napkins, and limes for us. We didn’t pay an 18% gratitude fee that I see a lot of the 1 star review mention… not sure if that’s changed overtime. However the food was delicious and we’ll be going back!“

“Clean, inviting, and friendly. I had such a great experience dining here. My waitress Christine was very attentive, friendly, and had great recommendations. Really enjoyed everything we got! The poppers & pickle spears were nicely breaded. Great crunch and flavor! The inside of the poppers was creamy and flavorful. The garlic noodles were so so good and not too garlicky, just the right amount! The boil itself definitely stole the show with its combinations of flavor and spice that just balanced each other out nicely. Definitely will be back!“

“Indulge in the best and most delicious Creole cuisine in town, offering a wide variety of choices at seasonal prices compared to other Creole restaurants in San Diego. Located in a safe area with plenty of parking space, the service has been consistently attentive during all three of our visits, even during peak times. It's the perfect spot to enjoy an exceptional meal with friends after a long workweek.Don't miss their 'caviar'—it's a satisfying meal on its own. Their creamy and flavorful crayfish étouffée never disappoints, and the blackened catfish is fresh and perfectly balanced in flavor, making it a highly recommended option for a healthier yet comforting meal. The pasta jambalaya offers a unique twist on the classic dish. Overall, it's a truly great place to savor the mouthwatering flavors of Creole cuisine.“

I don't know if they changed the recipe for their Hennessy chicken wings but the first time we had them they were AMAZING the next time they tasted like honey mustard wasn't a fan. The servings are extremely large so bring your appetite! Pineapple Lemonade diabetes in a glass but freaking DELICIOUS. Next time I will make a point to save room for dessert!“

The etouffee, gumbo and red beans and rice is what we had and all of the food was flavorful and hot from the kitchen. We saw a lot of people ordering the baskets and they looked really good. We are going back to try those soon.“

“Since I came to San Diego, I thought I had to eat seafood at least once, so I visited Crab Hut.I think there are 3 branches in San Diego.What we ordered was the Seafood Basket, which came with various types of seafood in plastic bags.If I hadn't experienced it in Korea, I would have been embarrassed.I ordered 1/2 Mad spicy, and it was spicy enough that even elementary school girls who can't eat spicy food would enjoy it.hmm. Five stars. It's the best seafood I've ever eaten!!“

“I wasn't sure about ordering from a take out kitchen like this, but I'm glad I did. The food is fantastic.As a note: to order take out you need to go to the website to choose what you want and pay, then when you arrive at the place you call the number on the sign out front. They'll bring out your food.I had red beans and rice, a hot link, mac and cheese, and corn bread. All of it was full of flavor.I try to go to New Orleans about once a year. I've had mixed experiences with Creole food in San Diego. I'm not an expert of course, but this seemed legit. The mac and cheese was especially delicious.“
