The restaurant serves a wide variety of seafood, including snowcrabs, crawfish, and mussels, which are often large in size. The menu features favorites like the Sha Bang Bang Shrimp and the snow crab leg boil with corn, potatoes, and sausage. One popular dish is the catfish, which comes with French fries and can be seasoned with Cajun or lemon pepper.
