From the recommendation of Google Maps, went to explore there. Tried the Snow crab with the suggestions from the staffs for 35$ and also took the calamari fry as appetizer. The crab bucket comes with potatoes, corn and sausages. The Cajun seasonings were splendid. Loved the crab a lot. Perhaps I will try the lobsters there on my next San Diego visit. Would recommend seafood lovers to visit there. The staffs were very nice and caring. They even kept the restaurant open only for me even after the closing hour so that I can eat the food while it's hot.

The seafood boil was amazing and the garlic shrimp noodles. I also had the fried oysters and everything was great! Highly recommended

Sandra and Lovia were both amazing—so attentive and welcoming to our party of six. The drinks and food were absolutely top-notch. Everything was packed with flavor, and we loved how the sauce was generously layered over the food. We chose the medium spice level, and it hit just right. The atmosphere, music, friendly staff, and flavorful dishes made this place a standout. I have nothing but great things to say. We’ll definitely be coming back!

👍Lunch special before 3pm is the best overall value under $25 for this big 1b 🦐 shrimp bag/corn/sausage and also comes with white 🍚 rice and a drink 🥤food was delicious 😋 I took a star ⭐ off because the manager upfront told me not to bother the cashier because she was busy, and herself was busy, she said wait to be seated. But then a group of 5 people went to pay for there meal and the cashier stopped what she was doing and helped them immediately. Super frustrating, just to sit down.
