Nice atmosphere and unique decorations. We had the calamari and shared a #3 Combo with snow crab legs, shrimp, and mussels. One bag is definitely plenty enough for 2 people. The seafood was good, but there was hardly any “juices” in the bag which meant less flavor. Overall, I recommend trying them out!

This was the worst food I think I’ve ever eaten. My mother and I came here for lunch, hoping to have some fried seafood. I had visited once before with some girlfriends and found the regular mixed boiled pot was over cooked and mushy for all the seafood. But I thought maybe the fried food would be better. WRONG! The calamari was ok, the oysters were disgusting over cooked and tasted like they’d gone bad, and the “gumbo” was brown gravy with 4 pieces of what I’m assuming was supposed to be seafood. Needless to say, we are 1/3 of the calamari and the rest was inedible. I had also ordered the soft shell crab po boy, and it looked like the middle was scooped out before cooking. I felt sick after the very little we ate. Avoid if you enjoy seafood. If you like over-cooked mush, go for the mixed boiled pot.

This place is amazing. The best calamari I've ever eaten. I would go back just for the calamari. The crab was good. The shrimp was good. I would recommend getting it with the heads off. Otherwise, when you peal the shrimp their brains with splash on you. Unless that's your thing.

This place is underrated! I’ve been here twice now and both times were great experiences. Before I tasted the food I was worried it was going to be overpriced… and then I tasted it and realized it was worth EVERY Penny.Great service and incredible food. We did the kickin flavor and I couldn’t get enough.The seafood was awesome, but I was surprising blown away by the corn, sausage and potatoes that came with the order. Everything was so good! Will be going back again and again!

Been curious about this place for the dine-in experience - and it was a good first-time experience! Met a friend there for a late lunch/early dinner so we were the only ones there between those odd hours but we received really great service! The waitress was attentive and abided by our every wish.I had their seafood boil for the first time about 1.5+ years ago, but it was when they were doing only take out in the beginning/middle of the pandemic. I have to say the dine-in experience was way better. Their shrimps (seafood boil) with head-on were quite bigger than expected and compared to other seafood boils I've had (in Salt Lake County) so that was a pleasant surprise!Their kickin' style sauce (a mixture of all the sauces) on medium heat has a good flavor - really enjoyed it. We also had the raw oysters and sweet potato fries for appetizers. Great spacious atmosphere, where you can also settle in for an hour or so and still keep a distance (one or two tables away) from other patrons. Will definitely come back here as it's close to home. We need more places like this in Utah County!

We ordered two buckets with the medium spicy kickin' sauce for 6 people and were still very well fed. However, the server or kitchen must have misunderstood our order and only gave us crayfish and shrimp in both buckets. The food was nevertheless very good. There was plenty of sauce to go around and the appetizers (fried calamari, Cajun fries, and fried oysters) were also delicious. I would definitely order the fried calamari again.Overall, a pretty good place that's worth the money. 4 stars only because of the mix up in the order, but food is high quality and tastes fresh.

excelente servicio ? y comida deliciosa

I can't believe there is a great seafood place in Orem, Utah! I thought my seafood days were done when we moved from Oregon last year.We had a large party for a birthday celebration, they gave us our own room and the service was still awesome. They were able to tailor the spices per person, so everyone was happy, even the picky kids! Will definitely go again. A little on the high-price per person side, but worth it.

The service was seriously on point! The food was better!! We had 2lbs of crab legs, shrimp, crawfish and mussels. Everything was cooked well and tasted amazing. I will be back if I’m in town.

I have never been so disgusted... I always ordered from this place and never had a problem, until today I found this ball of hair with a piece of string in my shrimp!!! My husband took my bag to them and were rude when we asked for a refund... never in my life have I experienced something so disgusting like this. NEVER eating here AGAIN!!
