The service was great. The sauces were very well seasoned, but lacked some salt.

The seafood 🍤 boil is 10/10. It was so delicious 😋. The customer service was top notch. We ordered some headless shrimp, lobster 🦞 tails, corn 🌽 and potatoes 🥔. I recommend this place. We didn’t drive down but there were some parking spots.

Great little place to enjoy some good food, BYOB, family friendly, but no parking. Been there twice and will be back!
I wish I had a picture to show but my stomach took over when it came. It was so flavorful and came out really quick. I had the garlic noodles, a pound of king crab, pound of shrimp and a lobster tail with egg and potatoes with the special sauce extra spicy. With a peach strawberry lemonade tea or something which was so amazing and refreshing. They said it would be super spicy but it was fine for me. Again everything was very flavorful and cooked very well. Usually seafood places overcook certain things but all my stuff was perfect. My friend had the mussels, shrimp and clams and she said it was really good & the flavors were there. She ended up not being able to finish hers but I took it to go. The music was great. Our server JJ was great. We will be back. If you’re thinking about checking this place out you definitely should. Wish I had pictures but my big back took over. But they have visuals on TikTok.

was so excited to try this place after hearing so many good things about it. i decided to stop by on a weekday and street parking was easy to find. we were seated right away with no wait. the food wasn’t bad. the garlic noodles were so good, probably my favorite item that i tried. as for the boil, we got 3 seafoods: head on shrimp, crawfish, and green mussels. the flavor wasn’t bad, and i liked how they provided a bottle of lemon juice. the lemon juice really helped cut down some of the oiliness

I don't mind having to pay before eating, but the additional 10% tip added on deters me from paying more. Food is always great, but this policy may lead to a higher turnover rate if servers get less in tips overall.
UPDATE: NOT MANDATORY TO PAY RIGHT AWAY.

The waiter was friendly, attentive and polite. The food came out in a timely manner, it was hot and received as ordered! The food was tasty and flavorful. I would definitely go back! It was a family of four, we ordered two bags of snow crabs and shrimp, added a few items and we had a pasta dish, four drinks and a popsicle, our bill was about $210.
The flavors of the seafood boil sauce was amazing. My only issue is that the king carb legs were not fresh and many of the pieces had an ammonia smell so we could not even eat them. The shrimp with the heads on and the crawfish were fresh and delicious. You don't want to get sick eating bad crab legs.
First time at a seafood boil. It was fun, and the food was tasty. Don't go with the expectation it's a fork and spoon place. We had the medium/mild make your own bag with buttered noodles, dumplings and calamari. All delish! From the waitress to the young man who kept our table tidy and water filled, everyone was pleasant and ensured we had a nice evening. Plan to spend time. Not sure about the price point, when compared to other places, but we had a good time, and enjoyed the shrimp, lobster, and crab legs. Great for groups!
