The. Food is good but the waiting time is very long, 2 hours minimum.

The food was good and fresh. The flavor may depend on your preferences. 3.5 stars ?.

The plastic aprons were cute. But the gloves could be better. Maybe they can try blue examination gloves (S-M-L sizes).

Willing to go back but there are more places to try out there.?

Parking: We did have to wait for about 30 minutes. We had to download their app to be informed of our position on waiting list

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes easy to go in but we didn't bring in our wheelchair this time.

The service felt rushed and the waiter was always in a hurry. The menu has been reduced, and I recall there being more options for shrimp and other dishes. The quality of the food seems to have decreased since my last visit.

My boyfriend and I are big seafood lovers so of course it satisfied our cravings. We came into the restaurant around 4-5pm and it was a little busy but we were sat pretty much instantly. Service was subpar and everything came out really fast. We ordered a lb of shrimp along with mussels, clams, potatoes. Perfect fusion of flavors and would 100% come back again.

I always call in my order, the restaurant itself is very busy and loud but their food is good and is a decent price. I really like the fried calamari, and I like getting shrimp whole-sha-bang. However the chicken wings have gotten worse recently. And the worse part of the experience is typically calling in an order on a busy day. Their phone system sucks and sadly don’t do online orders. But still love their food

My friend and I love boiling crab! Today we encountered in her shrimp a "beard of mussel" as the waiter described. It looked like a squished and cooked cockroach, if we are being honest.
The manager explained to us that due to the cooks cooking the shrimp and the mussels in the same pan that's the reason why some shrimps can come out with mussel beard. Cross contamination is all I heard coming out of his mouth. I continued to ask what if we were allergic to mussel? He asked "are you guys allergic though?". That wasn't the point. Basically stating, we didn't die so we should be fine. I asked for a discount for the disturbance, he refused. My friend wasn't able to continue enjoying her food because her stomach was just in a knot. We ordered our check for we can just head out. They brought it to us and we paid with cash leaving a tip & got up the table to leave without waiting for change. As we look back, we see the manager and waiter rushing to the table assuming we were leaving without paying. We felt discriminated and offended. Has anybody ever encountered a beard of mussel in their shrimp? Unfortunately, we didn't take a picture because as soon as we told the waiter, he took the cooked cockroach to his manager.

We got king crab legs and corn for takeout. The seasoning was delicious, but they didn’t provide gloves for takeout. It’s recommended to have crab-eating tools for easier cracking, or else your hands might hurt.

My experience was bad, they had me waiting for 3 hours to sit down, when I arrived to ask, they told me that I had to wait an hour and a half more. I didn't like it, I don't plan to go back, I think they look at faces and that's wrong, we are all human and 0 brothers who It's a shame they are like that ? I was left wanting my shrimp ?
