I had an amazing dinner here! I tried the green tea shooter and the red crab margarita, and both were absolutely delightful. Happy Hour runs from Monday to Saturday, 3–7 PM, and it lasts **all day** on Sunday—perfect for weekend plans.
The seafood boil was good, and the crab cakes, though on the smaller side (you get two), were enjoyable. The catfish, however, could have been a little fresher. The customer service was exceptional from the moment I walked in until I was seated—it truly made a difference. Asia, our waitress, was a standout and an asset to this place, delivering phenomenal service.
I'll definitely be back and will be recommending this spot to my coworkers for after-work outings!"

This spot has the crab boil thing down. Plus their other menu offerings for those that want something other than seafood are also good. The food is good, crab tastes good, a little pricey, but the atmosphere, the vibes and the crab boil make for a winner. This is a good one.

This place is a hot mess. The waitresses look dirty and like they don’t care how they come to work. The whiting in the fish basket is just covered with skin and taste awful. You don’t get a lot in a broil. Our server was terrible and never came back to ask if we needed drinks or anything. I will not be returning

I had a quick moment and stop by this location to grab lunch. I was a bit pressed for time, but I wanted to try it since it was on my way to my final location. Anyway, I sat at the bar, there was one other person sitting there before me and couple at a table. There was a lady sitting at the front desk after a bit She handed me a menu. I passed that down to the other person sitting at the bar and requested one more menu. I noticed that there was only one server, and I guess he was acting as the bartender. I politely ask thee Asian lady Is this the only server? And she began to tell me that I was only there for a minute and berated me and said I could just leave. I answered that I only asked a question. I stated that there Is no fault, but I'm a little pressed for time. I just wanted to know she again started berating me. And saying I could leave and other things. I'm not sure why she took this approach. I literally just asked, was there another server? Understanding that one person working might be slight delay, not the fault of the server, but just an observation. iThe Asian lady was extremely rude after I asked a simple question and I just can't figure out why. It seems as if she is tired of this business and if so, she probably would want to move on to something else If she cannot take someone just asking a simple question, not a complaint, just a question.
LETS BE VERYYY CLEAR THE MENU PRICE IS NOT WHAT YOU WILL BE PAYING !!!! Please EVERYONE CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!!! The menu states one price and the bill comes to your table another price and if you don’t check or speak on it They Damn Sure Won’t !! Attached is a photo of the menu and the displayed prices vs what our bill said !! First it doesn’t say No Refills on Sweet Tea and it has a totally different price but they charge for all the refills of any of the drinks listed !! Which is not stated on the menu ! Second issue is the mascoto is on the menu for $6 and comes to the table $6.50 per cup it’s not listed as that ! The menu needs to be updated because you think you’re paying one price but it is another !! The food was good but the Scamming is crazy

Here’s the revised review with that detail included:
I ordered my food an hour in advance, but when I arrived, my order was incorrect. The staff admitted they misheard me due to the loud background noise, which I understood, but correcting the mistake took an additional 20-30 minutes.
I also asked for crab sauce, which they agreed to provide. However, after processing my payment, they told me it would be an extra charge. When I asked if they could include it as a courtesy given the inconvenience, they refused.
When I spoke to the manager, I was met with rudeness and unprofessionalism. She interrupted me before I could fully explain my concerns, raised her voice, and dismissed the issue entirely. I remained polite, but she continued speaking to me in a degrading and unnecessary manner.
As I grabbed my bag and walked out, trying to avoid further confrontation, she yelled, “Did she pay for that?” The host had to step in and confirm that I already paid. It was embarrassing and uncalled for.
How can we support a business in our community that treats its customers like this? As a business owner myself, I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this place to anyone.
Let me know if this works for you or if you’d like any more edits!

Sneaks into private gated apartment parking garages and places advertisement flyers for disgusting food on everyone's car doors.
Called up and front desk said a manager did it. Terrible establishment.

The waiter did not come check in once I had to get up and ask for my bill. Thus is the 4 th time trying to give them grace. Absolutely not. Spend your money else where with better service

Service was terrible!! Our server only had 1 other table there was no reason for her to be so unattentive!! Then had the nerve to add gratuity. The food quality was terrible, the sauce wasn’t even mixed into the boil. We will not be returning.

This used to be my favorite place. The sauce in the crab leg bag was amazing years ago. But it has gone downhill. The sauce is watered down and tasteless. Such a shame.
The seafood boil is decent, but I've had better. The sausage was too salty for me. I've had seafood boils where I didn't taste the salt in the sausage. Also the sauce seems to be a little "watered down." I've had more flavorful sauce at other seafood boil places.
