But nothing prepared me for what I was about to taste when it was delivered to my door. I used my fingertip to sample the original and I was blown away. I found myself sampling in the manner about 7 or 8 times just to keep the flavor on my tongue. This seasoning has been used with fresh Shrimp, Chicken Breasts and Scallops. Wow!! Jay Ski's has something special going on here. The sweet, tangy, savory & heat in the herbs & spices works with almost anything!! Shrimp was broiled with butter, fresh garlic cloves, lemon juice and Jay Ski's Original rub. Chicken Breasts were baked with olive oil and Jay Ski's Hot Rub. This stuff is incredible & kicks Old Bay out of the way!! This seasoning, I'm not kidding...enhances and improves almost ANY protein. I'm not even getting paid to promote this stuff but it is THAT good. 5 Stars!!

The Scallops: Absolute perfection. They had that beautiful golden sear while remaining buttery and tender inside. The flavor profile was sophisticated yet allowed the freshness of the seafood to shine. The Red Snapper: A standout dish. The fish was cooked to moist, flaky perfection, showcasing a delicate balance of textures that only a top-tier chef can achieve. The Risotto: Honestly, this dish deserves its own line item in our family budget. It is so addictive that I'd happily order it every single day if I could! Out-of-this-World Service While the food was spectacular, the service was truly cosmic. It's rare to find a team that is this intuitive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. They don't just take orders; they curate an experience. Every detail was anticipated before I even had to ask.

For dinner my husband ordered the shrimp po boy and really liked the shrimp. I had the fried shrimp platter. It came with coleslaw, string fries, and hush puppies. The shrimp were large, breaded but not greasy. They were fresh and very well seasoned. We really enjoyed our dinner here and would definitely go back.

Unfortunately, the presentation and accompaniments were disappointing--cocktail sauce and horseradish were combined in the same container, and the mignonette lacked flavor. More concerning, several of the oysters had small pieces of shell in them. We ordered another half dozen, but they sat on the counter for quite a while. Multiple servers walked past them before they were finally brought to our table, which was frustrating. To make matters worse, my husband noticed a server drop a ticket on the floor, pick it up, and then place it back above the food that was waiting to be served. That raised some serious concerns about food handling and cleanliness. Overall, while the oyster selection is impressive, the service and attention to detail really fell short of expectations.
