I have been wanting to try this place for the longest time since I saw it replaced On The Border, and it did not disappoint.Fried CalamariYour basic essential for pretty much any chain restaurant of this kind, they were slightly underdone, but it was a decent amount, the sauce was good, and the pricing wasn’t too bad. So overall, a good choice.Cajun Crab and Shrimp DipThis was recommended to us by our lovely waitress, I won’t put her name, I’ll just refer to her as Miss S. So we were indecisive on what to order as our 2nd appetizer and Ms. S recommended that we go with the dip. She assured it was one of the most popular and best apps they had, and it didn’t disappoint. Possibly the best item from the meal, the dip had a really nice range of flavors, a little sweet, a little spicy, perfect amount of cheese, good amount of seafood in it, and the toasted garlic butter bread chips were a really nice dipping choice. Very good appetizer, definitely recommend.Seafood Combo A (Shrimp, Mussels, Crawfish)This was good but it also lacked a lot, I’m a bit split on how to exactly feel about this particular order, I’ll explain. I could’ve done with a couple extra pieces of corn and potatoes, and the mussels were cracked more than I would’ve liked and or expected, and one of them was actually empty, no mussel meat to be found. The shrimp was good, best part of the pot; I wish I would’ve done a double or even triple order of shrimp. The sauce it was all in wasn’t bad either but I expected better. Now, the biggest robbery was the crawfish. Big regret, no meat, hard to crack and eat, just not good or well made. Def wish I would’ve ordered more shrimp instead, but that’s mostly on me.Overall, it was a good experience, I would like to go back again and order the Cajun Crab and Shrimp Dip again, plus rectify the mistake I made with Seafood Combo. Never order the crawfish, NEVER. And Ms. S was ?

Jay was our server. It was so good the food the service. Definately a hot new spot. ? So good ? ?.

This place is delicious! The staff are super friendly and fun! Best seafood boil I've had so far! Check them out if you're craving seafood!

This was my first time and I had a great experience. I highly recommend anybody that likes seafood and crab legs to come here. Our waitress Juliana and our busboy where great. Very attentive.

Wonderful birthday experience!!! The food is amazing.. we each got a 1/2 of green mussels and 1/2 of headless shrimp. With hot Cajun sauce . So good and spicy . The only thing we did not like was the music being so loud. I think they have a DJ and it’s a Sunday so that maybe why.. I look forward to coming back when it’s not so loud maybe a weekday .

This place was AMAZING. Our server Marlen was incredible, very attentive and fast paced. There was another walking around named Ricky on top of cleaning the tables and before you realized your table was clean and picked up!There was a DJ playing music, very relevant and had my whole family dancing the whole service. Drinks were on point, nothing was too sweet and had a good amount of alcohol.The food was delicious, we had the bag filled with crab, shrimp, clams and lobster. Everything was tender and juicy. It’s my first time being in an establishment like this and I’m happy to say I’ll be coming again!

The service could of been better, the waitress couldn’t even tell us the drinks on draft. We got our drinks after our appetizers, the calamari’s where whatever nothing to rave about. The dressing was a little cold pack of marinera no lemon. The shrimp poboy was in French beget with was 3pieces of shrimps. The best part was the fries honestly. I will say the Crab Bisque was good. Wouldn’t go back.
