I would highly recommend this restaurant. The outside and in was clean and has a warm atmosphere. The staff was friendly and professional thatI had contact with. The food was hot and tasty. If I needed to say anything I did not like was It is clear in the menu no substitute for the corn and potatoes in the seafood boils. I was disappointed. I did not want to pay for food to waste and they did not have beef sausage.?

Super nice staffs. Food was good however we got the sauce extra spicy but the level wasn’t there. Other than the spice level we enjoyed it. Of course it’s seafood so expect it to be pricy.

great service better food

Definitely worth a visit. Could easily become a favorite of mine. The seafood was of decent quality - not the best I've ever had but still worth the money. The portions are generous.There is a slight novelty component to the dining experience which is fun. Overall worth the money. A decent seafood boil type meal for approximately $30 per person.The service is what makes this place, plus the bartenders are great at their job. Brie and Qadeera are professionals. Sit at the bar, be served by one of them and I know you'll be back. They do an excellent job and exemplify the ideal employee.

Overall I am satisfied every time I go to this place. Not overly priced. Great staff. Really good seafood. The Po boy was alot better than expected. The bag of shrimp had really good seasoning. Let it soak up the flavor! Last trip I tried the seafood pasta and it was very flavorful. Look forward to going back.

So I noticed many of the reviews are from around the opening of the restaurant, so maybe the enthusiasm for great taste has lacked or it could have simply been a bad day. HOWEVER to spend $125 for two people along with a $25 tip for the server (who was excellent) I expected so much more. The food and the seasoning was TERRIBLE, not bad, terrible. Then the response given by the manager was very passive, understand we were not seeking a free meal nor a discount. But genuinely enlightening her how horrible the food was. I would have preferred to leave the bad comment at the table however the brush off required that I share my experience with others. Maybe your experience will be better but there are tons of seafood restaurants popping up in Charlotte I am recommending you don’t waste money and try elsewhere.

First impressions from the parking lot was, this is going to be a loud dining experience b/c the music was blasting outdoors... Customer service was good all around. Had we known it was karaoke night we absolutely would have dined elsewhere. That was a major turn off as was the fact they had no scissors or shell crackers available.We selected our own items for the boil bag and it was tastey, but I think I would pick 1 flavor vs. the house sauce which is a blend of the 3.The karaoke tho.... the karaoke has to go...

We don't normally go to places like this so I'm not sure how prices should be. I got fish 3 pieces & sweet potato fries fish was ok Swai cheapest fish.it was waffle fries which I don't like. Pictures were different, 3 sliders & fries but you only get 2 sliders & fries. The boils were not seasoned very well, nor was the calamari appetizer; some pieces had little season, and other pieces had none. Service was okay, although I asked for a refill of water 3 times and only got 1 refill. Liquor was expensive: Makers Mark was $8.50 a shot.

Server told us that they were short of help. My wife had to ask for water. She got some the first time. She asked 2 more times and never did receive anymore. Good amount of food. It didn't have enough season on it. Seems like the seafood was cooked without any salt or any season in the food.

First time going but it definitely won't be my last. Went on Friday night because of karaoke, and it was so much fun. The dj was on point. The bartender was great. All around fun night. Daily drink specials and the food was great!
