Spur of the moment visit. Oysters were very good & briney. Main entrees very salty! Too much salt.

I've been wanting to try this place since it opened. I thought what a weird concept to have a chain crab place in the land of fresh seafood. It might have been worse than I expected. Not a single employee appeared to want to be there. I had second hand embarrassment for anyone that heard the one employee go on and on about some beef she had with another employee while she frantically texted ignoring customers. The bar SMELLED. You know the smell - like it's never been cleaned. I guess if you're looking for some crab legs they weren't horrible. It seems like an insane presentation in a huge plastic bag.

We arrived and Lucy was taking care of us. She was very engaging and a nice personality. My wife had the Fried Shrimp Basket while I had Jambalaya with a bowl of Shrimp with Sausage Gumbo. Everything was delicious!! A place I would definitely visit again should we visit Portland again.

I would have given a 5 .the food was excellent but it seemed to cool down too fast. My son also said the chicken tenderwas a little dry. The cajun crawcrab fried rice was my 1st time eating crawcrabs and it was delicious. The place reminded me of part Chinese with a Southern Louisiana cuisine vibe/ taste also. I WILL return for the rice and the fried catfish and hopefully the food will stay warmer like Chinese food is known for. The Food stays hot till the last bite but its NOT dry or over cooked. If you like cajun& hot cuisine, get the number 5 for heatness. It has a kick to it! ENJOY 😉

$22.99 for a sandwich with 3 shrimp swimming in thousand island dressing. Worst seafood meal ever. Save the money and get FILET-O-FISH. $35 total with doordash was stealing.

The mussels had an unpleasant smell of not being fresh. The utensils were dirty, there was a lot of oil in the shrimps, we didn't get enough, it was expensive for this, but we liked the service
