★★★★★ 5.0 Claudio Artigas · Oct 2025

Not a lot of space, but a huge amount of flavor!! This place is amazing, the food was super great and a very decent amount. The staff was so nice and friendly. We had to wait to be seated, but it was well worth the wait. Everything is great and delicious. This is a must go place to eat. One of the best plates is the baked seafood platter. There is another fried version, which also was excellent. Overall, a fantastic place to eat.

The service (Dwayne) was great. The atmosphere was cool. Old school, love that. Issue is we had the shrimp (split it) and onion rings. I have had fried shrimp but this one just seemed a bit greasier. There was a grease aftertaste. Nothing big, just aftertaste. I have had other fried shrimp in this area and did not have that. True with both the onion rings and shrimp. They tasted great until you ended up with that aftertaste. Nice big shrimp so no complaints there. 12 for $26. Had another issue with the beer. It came in about a 12 oz tall plastic glass and was warm. Not hot, just not what beer should be. The real gotcha was $13.50 for one beer! Michelob Ultra no less! Yep, $13.50 for one. Had a long island which was $10. Not bad there. Just did not understand the beer pric

Authentic seafood shack, no frills, we were there on a cold Sunday night, We had the world famous fried shrimp platter and it was outstanding. Cub of Gumbo was just so so. You mix your own cocktail sause , they have buckets with ketchup worchestchire and hot sauce, and bring you horseradish.

This is the first review with the original restaurant. Went to both within three days. This was the better of the two and wish that I came the second time. Went for lunch the other day. Since end of the rush, seated right away but nice flow. The waitress was very nice and helpful since I never made cocktail sauce showed me and checked to make sure I was good. Ordered cra cakes and make your platter. The true stars was the oysters and shrimp both were fresh and cooked with a perfect touch. The crab cakes and stuffed crabs were good. The clam strips were mid,but the shrimp and oysters made up for it. Also my waitress timed my appetizer and food perfect and kept my ice tea glass full. Also excellent ice tea. Not too sweet and enjoyed three glassed. Average on what seafood cost the
