My husband and I went 3/10/25 . For the first time . Ordering was a little different but the waitress was very friendly and helpful. My fish po boy could have been fried alittle more but it was really good. My husband was happy with his bag of crabs and shrimp . There was no salt or pepper on the table . Just ketsup and a hot sauce. Would have been nice to have old bay salt and pepper and two different hot sauces . And take the metal holder off the table it's not doing any good. Lighting was too low . I like seeing what I eat. Maybe some plants . All in all it was nice.

It’s a nice spot with a bunch of TVs on sports, nice music, the maitai was delicious. We got a seafood boil with boiled eggs and it was delicious. Def will go back.

It took forever for me to be greeted when I walked in, even though their was an employee sitting directly across from me at the bar who had just helped the previous customer. The lady who finally got my food for me was very nice, even though she couldn't find it at first. I had the crab po boy, which I haven't had here for a few years. I was very disappointed. It didn't have nearly enough crab for $18.99.

I went with 3 other people, party if 4. My order was messed up 4 times. So our waiter told me just eat some of the messed up bag so that way I was eating with my party (didn’t want me to be left out) so I did. and the manager came to my table stared at me for about 2 mins so I asked her could I help her with something and then first thing she said was “are you eating out of the bag” so we told her what happened and she took the 2nd bag away. Then the cook came out told us nothing was wrong with the bag and the server showed him our order and still proceeded to mess it up! By the time they corrected it everyone was done eating and I was ready to go. The food was good but not worth it.
3 year update:
I and a party of 6 (4 adults, 2 children) went to your restaurant yesterday for Valentine’s Day and I had almost the exact same experience. The problem started when it came to our food, my husband ordered a seafood bag, with crab meat fries on the side, I ordered a fried fish Po’boy with crab meat fries on the side, and our friends ordered seafood bags and a crab meat Po’boy. All of the seafood bags were watery, no flavor, and the crabs were soggy and slimy. Everyone was eating except for me, and by the time I got my food everyone was done eating. The guy dropping off my food said it was a fried chicken Po’boy when we told him that isn’t what I ordered, he read the receipt attached to it and corrected himself saying it was fried fish. I ate the pickle off of the food getting ready to eat it and the bar tender on the shift asked if my order was correct, I said yes. And she said didn’t you order crab fries? I said yes they are right here, she picked up my food, took it from me, and said he wasn’t supposed to bring it out to me. And I never received anything else. We also never got the side of fries we ordered, or a side of sauce. The manager on duty was very helpful and she took off all the things that were wrong and apologized. As we were leaving the waiter accidentally gave us the wrong bill and we paid someone else’s. Again the manager stepped in to help and voided it out, and gave us the correct bill to pay. I ended up going to McDonald’s to eat afterwards because I was not given any food besides 2 slices of a pickle and some crab meat fries that were cold. Because the experience was almost the exact same, I again will not give this establishment another chance. We spent $188 dollars on food and service that was not worth it.

This place was amazing how ever requiring a 20% gratuity tip on Valentine’s Day , I EXPECT GREAT SERVICE WHICH THE WAITRESS PROVIDED !

The bathrooms were atrocious you could’ve convinced me I was using a men’s restroom , I think I’ve said enough. But to the young girl that served my table last night you deserve a raise , and if you want a clean establishment to work at I spoke to you last night !

My hubby and I went on New Years Eve, arounf 6pm. There was more takeout than sitting. Sign at the front door stated automatic 20% tip, which they added to ours. I'm on a low salt intake, so my opinion was their sauce was good but too salty, and it coagulated quickly during my time of eating the crab legs.

Staff service was wonderful. The barmaid / waitress was very good.

Would prefer bathroom to be cleaner. I don't understand why walls and ceiling vents don't get cleaned.

Will definitely go back because we enjoy it.

Dietary restrictions: High salt content. No salad options.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room.

Walked out before we even ordered drinks. As soon as we walked in you could barely hear the hostess because there was a speaker BLARING music at the bar and there were literally 2 people at the bar. How the bartender even took orders I have no clue. The hostess was really nice and accommodated us when I asked to sit away from the music, but even after being seated we couldn't even think of what to order because it was just too loud in there. I wish I could give half a star.
