This was a yummy stop! The owner was talking to a lot of the customers like he knew them which was cool to see! Great food and service

I’ve been waiting a seafood boil since Mardi Gras in New Orleans but I’m stuck in the Midwest. This place is the closest you are going to get to down south. Great portions, FANTASTIC sauce. And our waiter was absolutely amazing. 11/10 will make the hour drive many more times.

We had the hush puppies. They were bland. We also had 2lbs of crab with shrimp and sausage. We got all flavors mixed at a medium spice level and it was perfect. The shrimp and corn was delicious and the potatoes were perfectly done. The eggs and crab clusters were a tad lack luster but were still pretty good. The waitress was super sweet. The restaurant was decently clean (including restrooms). 8/10

Lobster cooked too long. Rice dish was fantastic! How does a seafood place NOT have a shrimp cocktail? Boiled (previously frozen) shrimp simply came in a bowl. Cocktail sauce had or didn't appear to have any horseradish in it. Rice dish was a huge portion. Hot oil that came with lobster very good. Potatoes and corn and lobster were very good. Just not worth the $17.00. lobster tail small and as mentioned, over cooked. Only customers in restaurant at the time. Next seating...family of five with three kids..sat right next to us. Within 15 minutes, every table around us packed with people. I get the packing people in next to each other for a multitude of reasons but come on. The private party room was filthy disgusting...in hallway next to bathroom. For the price it was ok. I would go back
