Dearly beloved, we gather here today, not in sorrow, but in reverence—for we have witnessed greatness, we have tasted divinity, and we have absolutely destroyed a mountain of crayfish with no regrets.
This was not just a meal. It was a battle. A joyous, buttery war waged with our bare hands, where the only casualties were the noble crustaceans and the napkins that tried, in vain, to contain the mess.
The moment we entered, the air was thick with the perfume of garlic, spice, and the promise of an unforgettable feast. The tables, lined with paper, awaited the carnage to come. And when the great bounty arrived—a steaming, glistening pile of crayfish, corn, and potatoes—we knew there was no turning back.
Oh, the crayfish! Their sacrifice was not in vain. They gave their tails willingly, their tiny claws raised in silent farewell as we cracked, peeled, and devoured. Each bite was a masterpiece, each morsel an ode to seasoning perfection. And let us not forget their steadfast companions: the corn, sweet and juicy, soaking up every drop of buttery goodness, and the potatoes, humble yet essential, a soft reprieve in this tempest of spice.
We leave this place not as we entered, but transformed—our fingers tingling, our faces glistening with the evidence of our triumph. We say farewell, but not goodbye, for we will return to honor the crayfish once more.
Rest in pieces, dear crustaceans. You were cherished. You were delicious. You were everything.

I ordered a payday combo and added a lobster tail and once I opened my bag I noticed my lobster tail wasn't in there,I was very upset I kept calling knowing they were closed that shit isn't cheap 😭 and I guess we need to start weighing the food ourselves I definitely didn't have a full pound of shrimp 🍤
Update* I ordered another payday combo and asked if the missing lobster tail from the previous order be added and they said yes, so as I opened the lobster tail up it was barely lobster inside it,like the really took some out of it or it was just bad but I've been ordering from them for a while and I've never received a lobster tail like this,then I taste it,it was really soft like it went bad or something,idk if they're being spiteful and mad about the first complaint I made and call themselves teaching me a lesson but I'll definitely be making my way on Wabash.
This is seriously the only low country I’ll go to. Idc where I’m coming from, I’m coming here. I love when the $38 lobster deal is going on that’s the best time to get it !!
Vegetarian options: Broccoli corn potatoes, there are options without meat
I visited the Lowcountry Lakeview location for the first time on a Friday evening. The staff was friendly, and we were seated right away, which was a nice start to the experience. My husband and I ordered the “Payday,” which included 2 snow crab clusters, 1 lb of shrimp, 2 corns, 3 potatoes, and 2 pieces of jalapeño cornbread. We chose the “everything” sauce with a hot heat level and added two hard-boiled eggs and an order of garlic noodles.
The sauce was delicious, and the snow crab clusters were a great size, cooked to perfection with a sweet, flavorful taste. The garlic noodles were also excellent, perfectly al dente and full of flavor.
Unfortunately, not everything met our expectations. The shrimp were overcooked and rubbery, the eggs were dry, and the cornbread was crusty and dry as well. For a total of $96.32 (including tax and tip), the meal didn’t feel worth the price.
While I love Lowcountry and have always enjoyed the South Loop location, this visit to the Lakeview spot fell short. I’ll be sticking with the South Loop location from now on.

smaller than the other locations but still nice. decent food but a little pricey for the small-ish portions. chill laid back vibes. gumbo and dirty rice weren't worth it, but the crawfish shrimp and crab weren't bad
I usually love this place. But I went Thursday night around 6:30 pm. And I was very disappointed. When I walked in, it was cold extremely cold. But I thought because I just came from Outside, maybe I was just so cold, but I was wrong. I walked up to the register placed my order went And sat at the table and noticed it was still cold. After being there for a good 15 minutes. Food came and was hot when it arrived literally maybe five minutes in and my food was cold. The place Was so cold that my food was cold they had no hot water to wash your hands just cold. Mind you I had my little cousin with me She is one years old and my son is six years old and they were cold as well. I was very upset. I asked the waiter if The heat was on and he said they just turned it on. I noticed everyone in the restaurant were wearing jackets. This was very disappointing. I don’t understand how they didn’t have any hot water or no heat. This is a restaurant if they didn’t have water or heat available it should’ve never been opened To the public.

I ordered the king crab legs. For $100 I expected way more. The crab tasted frozen and there was no flavor.

My sea food boil was very much salty and thick. I'm highly disappointed. I spend a lot of money on this for it to come out like this .
