Second time here and still love it. Nice atmosphere, great food and friendly staff. Prices vary widely. You can have gumbo or chowder for around $7, a basket or sandwich & fries for around $15, or full on seafood combos starting at $32 (the special deal). Need I say it? We will definitely be back!The first time, I had a shrimp basket and gumbo, hubby had a loster roll (po' boy) and clam chowder, we shared an order of fried mushrooms. Served very hot, everything was delicious and plentiful. We took the soups and half the shrimp home for dinner and nibble on fried mushrooms for days. Hubby liked his meal too but felt his lobster roll had too much slaw.The second time, I only had the gumbo, as I had learned my lesson. A hardier appetite might want something with it for dinner. The portion was perfect for my lunch. My dad, who is rather difficult to please and never finishes a meal, had an oyster po' boy and loved it -- he eat the entire thing except some of the bread and most of the fries. My sister had a spicy shrimp and crab combo (special deal) and enjoyed every morsel. I enjoyed watching her concur the crab shells. It looked like a lot of work and she had a lot of fun. She had plenty extra to take home for her hubby and she also got a gumbo to go. We love gumbo and this was the best I've had that wasn't made by my mom and family.The ladies room is clean and wheelchair/walker/scooter friendly. The dining area is easy to navigate but could be tricky in a wheelchair if the place gets full, as most of the tables are a bit close together. That being said, I'm sure the friendly staff would move tables as needed. Bring a friend to help with the front door on the way in, just in case staff doesn't see you. They will get the door on your way out. I wish the front door were automatic but I don't think it was particularly heavy, which will help some folks with walkers, depending on their strength/stability.

Very good food, service was great too. Went for the first time on Father's day, we got seated and served right away. Our waitress was very attentive and explained the menu to us, as this was the first time eating at this location. I must say we were very pleased with our experience here and will definitely be coming back to eat again! You must try their macaroons ice cream!

I had special #2 with clams, crayfish, and headless shrimp, with house special spicy sauce, as suggested by the waitress. It came with corn, sausage, and potatoes. Delicious, especially the sauce! The sauce was so good that I ordered a bowl of rice to mix and savor the meal.Service was excellent! The young waitress deserved a big tip!

This place just opened and I got the fried Oyster plate it was delicious. The oysters they gave me were extra large. My wife got the chicken Po boy, which she said could have been a little more spicer. Great place and huge inside too with a huge TV. Nice servers that were very attentive.

This is a new place. First time coming. Did was really good. I had the Cajun clam chowder which had a really good flavor. My husband had the gumbo and that was really good too. I had the lobster roll with fries. Very good. The aoli mayo had a good flavor. My husband got the boil with mussels and shrimp. It comes with potatoes, sausage and corn cobbettes. You pick the flavoring. So good!! I plan on letting everyone know so they can get the local business. Parking is easy and ample.

They do not clean their shrimp. Once I called back and let them know I will be coming to pick up another order this time if they clean the shrimp their response was if u want your shrimp cleaned you need to ask .. what kind of restaurant do you have to ask to properly clean your food. Especially seafood. That is so unacceptable to me I won’t be coming here anymore.

We first ate at this restaurant last month. We like the basket foods. The service is excellent, and the food is spectacular! We had the calamari, shrimp basket, catfish basket, and tried both the Cajun fries and the lemon pepper fries. All was seasoned perfectly. It turns out that they don’t purchase their products pre-breaded. They bread the food themselves! It’s great because the breading is light and delicious and cooked golden brown. Nice looking place with a great atmosphere. You can’t go wrong. Give the place a shot. We’ve gone back a couple of times and had takeout a few times too. The only reason we haven’t tried the regular seafood offerings like the crab legs and mussels is that we don’t eat that type of food anyway. I’ve seen people there who were very pleased with what they had. This was when we went for my birthday dinner. ?

Food was great!!! I had the French fries they were crispy and came out hot, the raw oysters, we actually ordered the fried oysters, I don’t eat them raw but I tried them from here and they were really good!!! We also ordered the combo #2 we had it with crab, mussels, shrimp with the head off, in Cajun seasoning at medium spicy level… IT WAS SO GOOD!!! My husband and I couldn’t even speak to each other lol, it was the perfect amount of spicy they brought out lemon a lot of lemon for us, we forgot about the lemon because the flavor was so good and not over powering like I’ve had from other places. The shrimp was sweet, I can’t explain it but it had like a sweet taste it was crazy good, the mussels were perfect and the crab was meaty and delicious, I wish they would’ve cleaned the crab and broke it down before cooking, so the body meat was easier to get but all in all this place was amazing and we will be returning… with drinks two appetizers and a combo #2 we spent $113 and it’s worth it!!!

That was too good ? I love seafood boil ! Let’s get the bill purrr ! Waiter was very kind and food came out fast . Not crowded at all .

New Place , I loved it great tasting food and staff is great A+
