    Was looking for a Cajun place since boiling crab is not open until 3pm on weekday!! Happy  to find this place! The sauce was good and seafood was fresh also.  Will come back!

    Food was good it filled us up really just like boiling crab. We had the shrimp that was already peeled, crawfish, snow crab legs, mussels, dozen raw oysters, 2 lobster tails, corn nuggets, fries and their Cajun fried rice. Honestly it was really good and will go back if we were in the mood for seafood boil again. Parking isn't the best and it's a small restaurant but compared to Boiling crab this is very similar you won't be disappointed I think. There isn't a couple hour waiting for seats.

    The coconut shrimp was the only disappointment. It was still raw and not fried enough.  The service was okay. They didn't come and see if we needed anything or if everything was okay. Parking is a squeeze tight area if you have an suv.

    I've lived in the area for years and never stopped by this until this past weekend with my neighbor. Talk about a home run!!!! The shrimp did not disappoint, I and my yummy were both happy campers leaving this place. Haven't stopped thinking about it...: /). Definitely returning soon.

    This is the spot for creole or Cajun if you're in the area! The seafood rice side was pretty good. The catfish here is good too. I really liked the seasoning they put on the fries. Garlic bread wasn't a big hit tho felt dry something you can make from freezer.

    Came here after we got wait listed for more than 2 hours at boiling crab. We waited no longer than 10 minutes. Shrimp taste good, similar to boiling crab but less spicy, love their garlic bread.
