First of all this boil place is one of the bests ones I have ever had ! The sauce itself is amazing! I bring all my friends and family here ! It’s great for all ages ! Would recommend to anyone the service sometimes can be slow sometimes but other than that this place rocks!

If you are a fan of the boil, this is a great location! They sat us at spacious booth for a group of 3. It was Friday evening and we did not have a res, but it was on the earlier side around 6pm. Classic the boil menu. For vegetarians- I had the potatoes, mac and cheese, and garlic bread- and left full. Plus service was friendly and attentive.

Have been going to this restaurant since COVID reopening. When I want good seafood boil bags..this is my spot. Fyi... make a reservation it saves time. When they are busy they are busy.
