Right when I walk in a seafood establishment I know if it's going to be good or not,the aroma of the venue will tell.you right away ,does it smell like cooked seafood with garlic and herbs and spices in the air or does it smell fishy with unappetizing aroma.This place smelled like heaven the second we walked in ,and it was a wonderful experience .it's on the pricey side but delicious all around every item was one of the best items of their kind in the whole 505 .The service was lacking but other then that it was perfect and I look forward to eating there again

Here’s the issue. The food before Covid use to be so good! Id go there a lot as I live in the area. Today I took my family and the food was horrible. Firstly, we ordered the cast and chicken tenders and shrimp baskets for our kids. The cast came out 10 minutes before the kids food. So here we are with kids who are hungry but had to wait long to get their food. First rule of thumb when a family is dining, make sure the kids have their food first. Next, We ordered MILD and my goodness it was so spicy that we couldn’t finish the meal. I ate 2 shrimp and my stomach has been burning ever since! The flavor was so bad that all I could taste was pepper. When my husband attempted to eat The crab legs they were so over cooked that there was nothing in the shell. It took us forever to get our ticket to pay so we stayed a lot longer than we wanted to and honestly wasted our money on food that wasn’t edible. Well we won’t be going here again. Lesson learned.

We went the first time for the seafood boil for my birthday and we go back for the fried shrimp. Crispy large shrimp, crispy fries, potatoes tossed in medium spice!!! It's an experience you won't forget.

This restaurant is awesome. All of the team who work here are very very friendly and do everything possible to make your experience fabulous. The boils are delicious. We have been here many times and each item we have had were great! The owners take time to come out and talk to the customers. This is a great place to eat.

This lunch was A-MAZING! The best seafood boil in town, don't forget the bread for some extra sauce lovin'. Thomas is perfect and really great at taking care of his tables. Thank you for a wonderful lunch! We'll be back

The food is fresh and delicious.

Phenomenal experience. Went to Unser location and food was amazing but staff was awesome as well. Our waiter was constantly making sure we were good on everything and went above and beyond (shout out to Campbell) he deserves a raise.

Popped in for lunch one day right as they opened. Got the fried catfish platter. Staff was very nice and the food came out quick and hot! Great experience!

I was pleasantly surprised, I am originally from Florida, shrimp can be very easily overcooked and the meat stick to the shell. This was not the case add Crackin crab. Everything was perfectly cooked and the service for takeout was excellent. I visited five more times!

Crackin' crab on Pan American tastes so much better, and shrimp are cleaner. I think even the flavor because of the differences maybe. Great Service and clean.
