good, but the portions are NOT what they used to be. They’re definitely skimping on the food now. The bags are smaller, and it’s just not worth the price anymore. The last time I ordered a seafood boil (crab, shrimp, corn, potato) through DoorDash, the seafood was so mushy it literally crumbled in my hand. I eat seafood all the time — I know the texture. That was not fresh. It was disgusting. I also ended up with a stomach ache after. Something wasn’t right. Quality has definitely gone downhill. Ps : it runs me off everytime I eat here .
Wow I literally want to soak anything in this "sauc" kickin style "all of the above" I mean tons of flavor not too spicy chunks of garlic. I couldn't get enough! If I lived closer I would be broke eating here probably 3 time a week. So so good! Gloves off no bib just go in reckless and you will not regret it!
I had 3lbs of shrimp seafood boil, gumbo and shrimp tacos.My food was quite tasty with minor issues. The gumbo was too saucy and didn’t have enough ingredients that actually makes the standard gumbo. The shrimp tacos were good but I would not buy tacos from there again. It didn’t hit the spot. The boil was extremely good however my corn needed a bit more steam.. it was too hard.
We love seafood boil, so this place is just calling us to be tried. We came on a weeknight, and there was no wait. Service was friendly and on time. We were privided with bibs, plastic gloves, and crab tools 😆 The snow crabs and shrimps were excellently cooked. However, the lemon garlic sauce was watery and on the bland side. Maybe reduce it more so we can get all that sauce goodness? Unfortunately, for the volume of seafood in a bag, and even with potatoes, corn and sausage, it's pricey for its portion. We can get twice that volume for its price in another St. Louus restaurant with the same delicious quality.
I normally don’t leave reviews, but this experience crossed several lines and needs to be documented. I came in and ordered a seafood boil and calamari and paid about $51 for the meal. After getting my food and walking out to my car, I realized the order was missing the gloves and apron that normally come with seafood boils. So I simply walked back inside to ask for them. When I walked back in, several employees saw me but walked right past me without acknowledging me. I waited for a moment and then asked one employee behind the counter if he could help me. His attitude immediately came across as irritated and dismissive. His body language was tense and hostile from the start. I calmly explained that I had just purchased food minutes earlier and only needed the gloves and apron that sho
