I came down from Florida to be with family. We had the best time, the waitress was amazing and the food was too. You know it's awesome when you forget about time and it flies by. We hope to be back soon!

First time here and everything was outstanding! The service was amazing and we did not feel rushed at all. Seafood was cooked to perfection and the garlic butter sauce was the best I’ve had on a seafood boil! Nice variety of music playing and good drinks. Free parking and so worth every cent! Desserts do not seem too appetizing so we skipped on that. Can’t wait to return

Came here for the Wednesday snow crab happy hour. It did not disappoint. All the crab, crawfish, and shrimp were fresh and the seasonings were balanced. Fair market price pricing and good atmosphere.

We made reservations for 6:45 for a party of 5. Our table was ready when we got there. We were waited on by Owen Li, who was super helpful and gracious during our dining experience. This spot is relatively small, so if your party is larger than 5 people, I suggest you book a reservation to guarantee seating. The food was plentiful, fresh, and delicious. FYI, everyone in your party must order the all you can eat buffet if one person in your party wants it. The drinks were tasty too! I would definitely return to dine here again.

What a place! Most of these Cajun boil places use low quality seafood. This is not one of them! Service was good but sometimes slow but the quality and taste of the food is outstanding. The all you can eat is a bargain considering the amount of food one can get as well as the 1 cocktails.

I love coming here. Great seafood boils, there garlic butter sauce is TOP TIER! The drinks are always on point. First time here on a Saturday, and it was live. Chatter and laughter all throughout. Took a friend out to celebrate her promotion and sat at the bar so we were seated right away. Same service at the bar as if we were at a table. Great place to visit with the family, friend outing, girls' night out, 1st date, or date night for a married couple. During this visit, we started with fried calamari, I had a passion fruit margarita (sooo gooood), and I did half a lb of snow crab legs with half a lb of sausage (sausage is an addition/side), in garlic butter sauce with no spice.

Came here for the first time after finishing a movie close by. The interior is really nice and clean. We happened to be their on Tuesday so had two 1 1/4 lb lobster specials which came with corn and a potato. We had the butter and garlic sauce which was quite delicious. We also ordered combo A, fried oysters as an appetizer and a couple of drinks. I was pretty impressed overall and it was also happy hour so look forward to trying other entrees the next time we go.
