    $20 crab legs add noodles
    Danielle H.

    The whole set up is interesting, security was at the door. Didn't expect that but he was funny and very professional. It was only myself in the restaurant, very quiet for a Wednesday night. Overall the ambiance seemed like a fun time on the weekend for sure! Karaoke on the weekends and seafood sounds fun. The seafood itself was decent, I can't say it was my favorite butter sauce but the noodles set it off. Very different than anything I've ever had. It felt like I left eating a crab scampi with noodles. I wasn't mad about it either just a little surprised.

    I visited this place with family as my older cousin turning the BIG 50. I would like to say this place is nice and love the small party rooms for guest to enjoy privately. Karaoke was easy and fun and the food was good as well. However, the catfish po boy I had the baguette was not as soft but fries and shrimp Fried rice good as well. The service was good and attentive. Drinks I had 2 strawberry lemon drops which were awesome and I loved it.

    This place is a great spot to hang with friends. The karaoke room rates are slightly pricy (does not include food or drinks) but if you know that before going in you'll be better off. Just make sure that you're on time so that you can enjoy it all! Service was easily accessible, they have a service button you can press to call for your server.

    Sigh..... This place was super hyped up and it completely fell flat. My first and probably last visit. There are just too many boil options around now. i was not here for karaoke just a meal. You walk in and there is no host. A person from behind the bar asked if we were there for a party (we were not) ok take a menu and go sit where ever. hmm ok.. Waitress comes over doesn't give her name but takes a drink order..by the time she's back with drinks we place an order. So have a mini boil bag with one cluster of crab and 1/2 pound of shrimp. It comes with 3 potato's and 2 small pieces of corn and you can't sub those out. You can add additional items at a cost. Mine was spicy and all the flavors mixed. Food is brought out warm but not hot.. After eating about three shrimp this unnamed waitress comes back with our bill.. She comes back three times pressing to pay this bill. We are trying to eat our food. I will pay the bill once we are done.. it was borderline unprofessional and damn rude. Never asking if there is anything else we need just "are you ready for me to take the bill". Our hands are covered in peeling shrimp and crab, NO we are not ready to dig in our purses to pay a bill. I finally look at the bill and 18% gratuity is added in. This should be disclosed up front especially if your not part of a party (it was just 2 of us) The mandatory gratuity is hindering good service. It shows in the service we received.. we were made to feel like a hurry up and pay situation and that will never be acceptable. For the price paid i can and have gotten better else where. If your not coming for karaoke, bypass this place

    This place is a hidden gem! I've been here before for karaoke on my birthday but came by to place a to-go order. Service: Quick and considerate. Nothing too fancy or over the top but they are always helpful. Ambiance: the place has a seafood/ boat vibes. Nothing fancy. Nothing to write home about but serves the purpose and is clean. Food: I'm from the east coast and am used to seafood boils. The seafood here is never overcooked and the flavors re bomb! It's cravable and priced well for what you get. Must try.

    The salt that I was offered.

    Awful!! Over priced!! Disgusting!!! First of all, how and why would one cluster of snow crab legs cost $20??? I despise when businesses come into predominately black neighborhoods and overcharge to their benefit without the decency of offering a quality product!! My family and I just attempted to dine in this restaurant and it was the biggest mistake of our trip. I hope the drinks and private karaoke rooms offer a better deal than the food! It was truly awful!! We ordered the Cajun fried rice which was filled with green pepper, red onion and shrimp which lacked a pinch of seasoning. They were the blandest shrimp I've ever tried to consume. It's as if they were taken directly out of the package, warmed up and placed on top of a bed of rice. The catfish po boy which was filled with a very small amount of their catfish bites in between the thickest bread I've seen for a sandwich and Cajun fries. I asked for salt and pepper and the waitress brought me a shot glass with salt poured in it. Are you kidding me??? Our waitress was kind and apologized that our service experience wasn't enjoyable. Oh, how can I forget the audacity to have a 18% service charge on already overpriced food is overkill!!

    After hearing much talk of this place, finally made it in for a birthday celebration. We had a private room that allowed for up to 18 guests. There's a giant flatscreen that allows you to access songs and lyrics. Soon we had the tunes blaring out of the speakers. The addition of the lighting effects in the room put the party in full swing. The drawback was only having one server for the amount of people in our party. Seems they would have two servers at a minimum. The food offering although mainly seafood also has wings, fried rice and a variety of appetizers. The location features a full bar with a bevy of cocktail options, beer, and wine. Soft drinks and juices are available as well. I ordered the Zombie cocktail and a seafood boil featuring king crab, lobster tail. and shrimp. I had all sauces available mixed as I couldn't settle on just one. The boil comes with corn and potatoes. I kept the spice level mild and added sausage and hard-boiled eggs. The libations were flowing and made for a great night belting out songs with family and friends.

    So cute in here! I love that the rooms come with your own rest room and that they also tally up your items individualized under your name making the settling of the bill very easy. Karoke is a breeze here and you can literally pick any song that pops in your head courtesy of YouTube. I ordered a strawberry lemon drop which to me seemed mainly comprised of sour mix and strawberry flavoring, I'm still wondering if it had the Tito's in it that I subbed out for absolut :/ . For food I ordered the mango habanero wings and Cajun fried rice, note: they only offer bottled water . The wings were HUGE, delicious and full of flavor and the Cajun rice was amazing, so garlicky and spicy and the portions were also humungous . My only complaint was that it got overbearingly hot in the room when the door was closed, and of course the door was closed at all times cuz we were karokeing! They had a ceiling fan but it was barely helping. Other than that I had so much fun and can't wait to go again.

    5/16/25 I came here…read morewith the in-laws, Zach and his brother and wife for a 5PM reservation. They were just opening up, but they let us sit at the bar while they got the restaurant ready for dinner. We all got drinks at the bar. I got The Final Rose drink. its's very pretty and not too strong. After sipping on the drinks, the host brought us to our table. Chris was our server that day. He was super friendly and answered all of our questions regarding the menu. Here's what we got: - Michigan lamb ragu (his) - Lobster and shrimp pad thai (mine) - Crab and shrimp cakes (share) - clam chowder (share) His family got some of the same items, but I can't remember the different items they got. The overall consensus though was that everything tasted fantastic. Coming from the Bay Area, I have high expectations when it comes to Asian food, so I was pleasantly surprised by how great the pad thai tasted. The clam chowder was creamy and delightful. The crab cakes were the perfect size and not teeny tiny. The lamb ragu was very well done also and my husband is a big fan of lamb so he really enjoyed his meal. Since we were there early, it was quiet which was nice. Would definitely return in the future the next time I am in Michigan.

    We were a group of 3 who wanted to be seated outside on a hot and sticky Michigan day. Luckily…read morethere was a nice breeze. Ok make that 2 of 3 that wanted to be outside. As we followed our greeter to our table I kept screaming in my mind "no no no no no not that table no!" and she sat us at a table in full blasting sun. Nevermind the fact that there was a whole shaded section in the back part of the patio area. The rest of my group said it was fine and a beam of sun slowly bore a hole through my chest. Drink orders were up. I ordered a fabulous cross between a Moscow Mule and a Mojito. A+++ for the drinks. Mine was loaded with fresh mint from their garden. Same grade for our waitress who explained the drinks in detail and ended with "ugh- are you sure you want to sit at this table straight in the sun?" The other two said it was fine. I was ready to move, but was out voted. She continued to check in regularly and brought extra water. Most items on the menu were hot. I considered the fish, but we all landed on appetizers and we would just bounce from place to place for bites and drinks. We ordered the charcuterie board and the lavender lemon whip with bread and cucumbers for the 3 of us. The charcuterie board was the large version and had minimal offerings. It wasn't full and pretty. It was little piles of each thing on a board. This one definitely wasn't making it into Better Homes and Gardens magazine. There was a little pile of mixed nuts, a little pile of lose green grapes, a little pile of lose red grapes - not all grapes pristine or large and none were on the vine. There were 3 little piles of cubed cheese and 2 types of sliced sausage and sliced pepperoni. There were 8 crackers that were wheat thin size. This matters because we had some onion jam on the board and a nice serving of mustard. There really wasn't anything to put them on except for the 8 little crackers. That part was weird. These weren't elevated offerings. I could have picked up any of these at Walmart. They were not elevated quality either. We also got a lavender lemon infused whip which was their answer to tzatziki sauce. It was excellent but again, we were given so much of the sauce without a bunch to put it on. The cucumbers were sliced lengthways and there was a lovely bread that tasted like sourdough. There was 6 pieces of bread, and these were not particularly large pieces. A lot more would have been needed to use all of the sauce they gave. The proportions were off. All together the bill was over $100 for the 3 drinks and appetizers. If I ever did go back I won't order food based on what I experienced. There are too many other great options within walking distance.

    Came here for an anniversary dinner and left a bit disappointed. I have heard good things but…read moreturned out to be a very mediocre dinner. Got a burger and upgraded to truffle fries. Just one burger option and limited toppings. Server was very nice but didn't write down the order, and when it came my burger was missing the cheese and onion. I wasn't sure if they would take it back or what so I didn't eat anymore and it took her a decent amount of time to come and check on us after we got our food. I let her know what was missing and she said it was her fault and asked if I wanted it fixed. I said yeah and she went and got a cold piece of cheese and slice of onion and put it on a plate and gave to me to put on my own burger. I'd expected a little bit better service and I'm certainly not someone who demands top tier service from every spot. Fries were crispy but needed some parm or an aioli sauce to dip in. Also minor note but I had some fries left on my plate and when she came to collect plates I had food in my mouth so I couldn't say anything but she took the plate and my fries! They should always ask if there's any food left on the plate. Burger was decent overall, but definitely nothing special. Environment was cool and I'm sure they have got some other delicious items on the menu but for the price paid and service received, I'd go somewhere else next time.
