    All the chicken was like this  how can you serve to this people.
    Linda H.

    I don't normally leave reviews but I've been ordering takeout from here for years but always just get shrimp lo mein. After today I'll never order any kind of meat or chicken from here again. The chicken I ordered had red and blood in the chicken. I was so disgusted I couldn't even eat my other food. Never again. So disappointed.

    The food is delicious and the service was fast. I enjoyed it a lot! They have friendly staff and are very polite. We are in and they brought our food to the table. I will definetly eat here again.

    We really like it and feel it is the best Chinese restaurant in the area. Hubby likes the chicken with garlic sauce and I like the chicken chow mein. The egg rolls are very good. So is the egg drop soup. The family works hard. They have my respect and our business.

    Half the menu on the wall, the paper one has all kinds of options

    This is our go-to for Chinese take out, and that is not for lack of Chinese take out places in Hermitage/Donelson/Mt Juliet strip malls. My wife likes the egg drop soup. It's not fancy or anything, but it does the job. I don't think they do delivery.

    Hair in my food. I will not be visiting here again.

    Great Chinese take-out. Some of the best of it's kind in Hermitage. The noodles are suberb and their soups are unmatched.

    Love places like Gulf Port Seafood Market - places you don't know about, nor expect then blow your…read moremind and palate. I especially love it when simplicity and genuine passion is served, not just presentation. Anyway, to start off - this market, and it's a market, not quite a restaurant. When my friend and I stopped in, there was one table, four chairs. Since we were there late, we were able to sit and dine in. Sitting and eating there allowed us to chat with Kojo - the owner. Learning not just about the market but his history and his passion for what he does. Switching gears again - the market is in a huge shopping plaza. Lots of parking. And free. As for the food - see the pics. Dinner pics is mixed in with what was left in the market. I can't even begin to explain how much I enjoyed the flavors of the dishes he made on the spot for us. As we were there late in the day, most of the popular dishes were sold out however, he made a few suggestions, even two that were off the menu and made it to order. When we were there, it was a one man operation. So he was also our host and server. If you couldn't tell - service was excellent. Chatting about food. About seafood. About the beginning of Gulf Port. And about life in general. This is one of those places, that if I lived there - I'd frequent the place just because of him. It's just too bad that me going there requires a plane ticket and a five or so hour flight. But, also know this - next time I fly into Nashville, I'll make my way to Hermitage and have more delicious, fresh seafood.

    **April 2025: Saturday Evening Visit**…read more My friend and I wanted to eat somewhere in the Hermitage area since that's where we were staying and Gulf Port Seafood had really high ratings, which were 100% well deserved. I should preface this by saying that Gulf Port is a seafood market first and that they have one table (4 chairs) so you can dine-in - but space is limited. Kojo, the restaurant owner, has both raw and hot options for patrons to enjoy. We came pretty late on a Saturday so many of his popular items (gumbo and lobster roll) were sold out, but we decide to try his other offerings which were delicious. We ordered the 2 orders of Cajun Crawfish Roll (methinks $15?), Seafood Mac & Cheese (methinks $20?) and Shrimp and Grits ($20? maybe) and all were made to order and brought to our table in a timely manner. The Cajun Crawfish Rolls came out first (I guess one order is given two rolls) and we demolished it. The toasted bun had a nice char, but was fluffy on the inside and the cajun sauce gave the crawfish nice flavor. We devoured this and were really impressed with the item. Next the Seafood Mac and Cheese came our as well as the shrimp and grits. The Mac and Cheese had such a great blend of cheeses and the noodles were cooked al dente. The grits on the shrimp and grits were scrumptious - not mushy at all and the shrimp was cooked through. Everything tasted very comforting and the prices are very reasonable! Overall, this was definitely a highlight meal of my Southern States travels and the next time I'm back in Nashville I hope to try the gumbo and lobster roll!

With a 4.77 aggregate rating across all user-driven platforms and nearly 1,700 reviews to date, Krustaceans is much better on paper than it is in reality, a very overrated restaurant! As the highest-rated seafood joint on the entirety of Highway 70 across the America, it simply did not live up to the hype as I passed through Nashville. Perhaps I should have ordered crab or shrimp or some other boiled seafood which seems to be more of their specialty. But the fish and chips caught my attention. Beware, these aren't the fish and chips you'll find in the UK or the Northeastern United States. Instead of a crisp, beer-battered exterior, this is more like a catfish breading. And it's not bad, but it's just very different than the name would imply. The batter is probably too salty, but the fish is very fresh! The Cajun fries are horribly mediocre. They're definitely just frozen fries from a local supermarket with an uninspiring spice mix. The employees didn't seem very welcoming either, which was kind of sad since I was excited to be there. It's not a bad meal at all, but the ratings are way higher than they should be! If you're haphazardly shelling out five-star reviews, you've probably never had real seafood on the coast and have only inflated the truth for online viewers. Don't expect too much out of Krustaceans, hope for a decent meal, and you won't be disappointed.

First the passion fruit milk tea is actually a yogurt based tea, not the traditional Taiwanese milk tea you find in most places. A yogurt drink is tangy and good, but not what I was expecting when I ordered it. Second they packed the jalapeño right in the same place as the noodle and I don't like spicey, but I didn't think I had to add the jalapeño. Well even without adding a single jalapeño to my soup it was super spicey because the noodles had been sitting on top of the spicey peppers. I couldn't finish my soup because I am pregnant and super sensitive to spice right now. My stomach blew up like a balloon. Also the basil leaves had a lot of brown in them. Other than that it was tasty and I would eat there again. I just would ask for no jalapeños and I would ask if they have any milk tea that's not yogurt based. The boba itself was good though.

I ordered a rare steak and meatball phó, and some Thai fried Eggrolls. The fried eggrolls were decent. The phó had a dark broth color, which in my mind tells me it's a bouillon from a glass jar with hot water. The noodles and meat were cooked great. The broth was something to be desired. I enjoy a fatty, clear beef broth. I was not super impressed with the sriracha. Adding another brand to the sriracha bottle trying to fool customers is not a good practice. It makes the phó taste awful. I can't speak for other pho restaurants in the area, but this was so-so for me.

He was really excited to go so we made a 30 minute drive to load up on some dumplings. My first impression was that the place was clean and bright with lots of seating. We were greeted nicely and we sat down to discuss what we wanted before ordering at the register. Disney music played on the speakers the entire time and even me, a Disney-adult, I was over it after having to hear Let it Go twice in a row. We ordered quite the spread: one beef gua bao, one order of chicken & cabbage handcrafted dumplings, one pork belly rice, one chicken gua bao, one zha jiang noodles, soup dumplings, and Thai iced tea, and one jasmine milk tea. In total, with tax and tip, we spent nearly $75. Now, we wouldn't stick our nose up to spending our hard-earned money to get our grub on, however, we felt like we didn't get our money's worth here. The food was just okay. My favorite thing was the beef gua bao and I would absolutely get that one again. The Thai tea was delicious, and the chicken and cabbage dumplings were decent. My husband surprisingly loved the chicken gua bao the most and I really enjoyed it, too. But for the more expensive items like the noodles and rice bowl, they were *fine.* My rice barely had any sauce on them and minimal pieces of pork belly. The soup dumplings, though prepared nicely, were not very flavorful at all. The jasmine milk tea? Probably the worst I've ever had. My husband liked his noodles but I was not crazy about them, they had a very greasy texture to them and the mouth feel was like I was so thirsty at the mechanic that I took a swig of their synthetic motor oil. Now I will say that the employees here are very nice and they bring the food out to you as the dishes are made. Overall, I wasn't impressed with Steamboys except for their beef gua bao and Thai tea. The price didn't match the flavor for the entire meal, so we won't be going back. Service: 10/10 Food: 5/10 (the gua baos and Thai tea are the best) Drinks: 7/10
