Good customer service and good food selection great Atmosphere indoor or outdoor seating your pick. burger I got was a little big lot's of flavor going on. Not in picture but got a side of dirty rice very good ate the rice instead of the fries. Lol

Staff was super friendly. Great vibe. The food was delicious. Their Gulf Coast Bisque was excellent. It tasted like MORE. Our shrimp and crawfish were perfectly cooked. The dessert was fabulous as well.

We’ve heard so many good things about this place and decided to give it a try. Great service and the food was AMAZING. We will definitely be back for more. ?

The atmosphere was awesome from the decor to around the building. My wife and I both got the 50/50 combo fried shrimp and fish. At this point the restaurant is completely full with people waiting in line to order. When we received our food it was fresh and hot. The cocktail sauce was above and beyond what I expected. Service was good. We will definitely be back.

I was about to give this place a lower rating since we waited over an hour for our food. We stopped by on from an out of town trip and we figured it would be a good place to stop for lunch. After we ordered we were not told that the wait would be long due to the crawfish not being available yet. After waiting an hour we finally asked since we did need to get back on the road and our waitress responded with information saying they ran out of crawfish and we would need to wait 15 more minutes for the crawfish to be done cooking. My wife and I were a little upset that they didn't say anything about that in the beginning. Yes we probably would have left to avoid the wait, and let's be honest, that's probably the reason it wasn't mentioned.Since we had already wasted and hour there was no sense to go elsewhere to risk wasting even more time. We stayed and waited which ended up being a smart decision. The crawfish was fresh and delicious. I really enjoyed all the food but for me the crawfish being so fresh was definitely worth the wait. If this place was closer to my home I would definitely be eating here more often.Kudos to our waitress who understood our initial frustration and brought us some cobbler in an effort to made our experience a better one. After the crawfish came out I would say the cobbler wasn't necessary. I'd say 4.5 stars is more accurate, and overall my wife and I were happy. I'd like to think them for the excellent food and good service with a smile. Next time we are in the area this is were we will be eating.

Not too bad for Cajun outside of SETX or LA. They start you off with a basket of sweet raisin and sweet jalapeno miffins with a cinnamon butter. The sweet tea was good and not too sweet. The seafood and sausage Gumbo was good, but I prefer Gumbo to have a chocolate roux for a more intense flavor. The gator bites and sauce were delicious. The crawfish was cooked perfectly and had fairly good heat.I definitely have to come back to try more of the menu.

Great food and service. We sat outside and a beer played cornhole had oysters on the half shell, shrimp,crawfish,and clam boil. We also have cobbler and ice cream for dessert to go . It was so filling and so very good. A must try you won't be disappointed

I want to start with the service. If the food was horrible (it wasn't), I would still give Arianna 10 stars. She was amazing. When we got there around 5:30, there were a few tables occupied. Arianna greeted us with a big smile and walked us through the menu. While we were deciding, she went to serve a table food. After we ordered, we grabbed a table and waited as the place slowly began to fill up. She was not only the hostess, she was also the server and cashier. She also found time to check on all the tables. I was astounded when she asked if I wanted a refill. I told her she already had her hands full, but thank you. We got our own refills. I would have felt bad having her do it.Now, the food. We started off with the fried pickles. They were good. Our youngest had the fried shrimp. And I was not expecting there to be so many! He thought they were really good.The oldest boy had the cajun something. He forgot the name of it. He said it was excellent and very filling.I had the shrimp wraps. Absolutely wonderful. My husband and I agreed that it tasted like his grandmother's shrimp salad, minus the pasta shells. Yes. It was that good.Finally, my husband had the big crab boil. We met in Alaska. I was raised there, so we are a little picky about crab. Damn. We haven't had crab that good since we left AK in 2009. Was it a little pricey? Yes. But for the quality and the quantity, it is reasonable.Where my husband and oldest found room to have dessert, I do not know. But they agreed that the key lime pie and the lava cake made the perfect ending to a fantastic dinner.
