The seafood boil from here is delicious it has always surpassed our expectations. The flavor its just perfect the cajun wow hits the spot. The amount of food is for sure plentiful. The drinks are really good also.

Ordered a 956 special, crawfish was horrible, it tasted like it was very old. Lobster was way over cooked. The other stuff that came with it was good. Drank a tap beer and it was warm. Not completely knocking it, but hopefully they do a little better. Waitress was good, but she could have offered another drink after I told her I didn't want the beer.

The atmosphere was nice,friendly staff, but your lucky for a food rate 3 Star.
The food - the sausage was extremely salty, and the cajun spice was unbalanced in flavor, it had to much chili and over powered the other spices. I tried to eat what I could. Afterwards, I got sick as a dog. Threw up several times.
My husbands fried fish was improperly cooked, was somewhat raw.
So disappointed for our first visit there. We won't be back.
