    A nice little find in New Caney..this review is based solely on personal preferences. The food was good and tasteful..(could of used a bit more seasoning. (Personal prefrence) We had the fish, fried green tomatoes and onion rings. I will ask for it to be fried extra crispy next time (personal preference). The coleslaw was a little juicy (runny) for my taste. (Again personal preference).. customer service was great. Definitely will go back again and try some other items on the menu.

    Ok.... Lets start with the help. They were very courteous. The little helper that was there was a cutie! The food...I ate the grilled catfish tacos. They were good EXCEPT it was swai and not catfish. Hubs had the Sampler...he said it was good but...it wasn't catfish. Big disappointment for us about the catfish but overall we rate them a 3. The food was good but the fish was not as expected. Boudin was good Fried Oysters good Fried Shrimp good.... O yeah..No signal so you have to ask for the wifi password

    This is an $18 plate. I was over charged on every single item I ordered. A side of fries was $6.

    Menu prices are not what you pay;they are much higher. Food is warm at best. Service is awful. The girl behind the counter was on Snapchat while I stood there waiting for her to acknowledge me.

    We finally decided to give this place a shot regardless of past bad reviews. We both agreed if we walked in and it was dirty or smelled dirty we would turn around and leave. I am so glad we went in. The place was spotless and it smelled really good, ,no heavy old grease smell at all. The service was fantastic and we were feeling pretty positive at this point so we started with the fried green tomatoes. Oh my goodness they were done perfectly and such a crazy amount. No way could we even eat half of it! Then we both had the fried catfish and shrimp with okra, fries and onion rings. Everything was super hot and cooked very well. The onion rings are a must!!!!! The fish were smaller nuggets and fried crisp and the hushpuppies were delicious with corn in them. I was amazed at the amount of food and we realized we had enough for at least 2 more meals. I was going to pass on dessert but peach cobbler is really hard to say no to so we got some to go and wow!!! Do yourself a huge favor and get the cobbler. It was amazing, peaches were cooked perfect and the perfect amount of cinnamon. I had it for breakfast the next morning and I want to go back for more! So back to those bad reviews many years ago.....I don't know what happened back then but whatever it was it has been fixed and the new management is doing an amazing job. Please give it a shot and leave a review because we need these small business owners and I want to enjoy more of that cobbler!

    This is damn good crab! Damn good crab! Smash down the king crab twice in 2 days. Both times go…read morewith all the seasonings light on the spice. Talk about full flavor! The king was fantastic in that seasoning just made it blow up with flavor. For, as much as you spend on the crab, you shouldn't have to buy more potatoes and corn, but it is what it is. Hard to get a 5, but this is a great place to get your crab on!

    If I would have rated this place my first time here two years ago, it would have barely received…read moretwo stars. This time was a completely different experience. As we walked in, we were immediately greeted by Eric and seated. He sat us in a private cozy nook but we asked to move to the booths with tv viewing access. Eric took the time to explain the menu and offered his suggestions. He greeted and checked on everyone. As he spoke to people, he would thank them for coming back and converse as if he was speaking to old friends. The customer service was superb. My husband ordered a michelada with Michelob Ultra. He said it was a few degrees shy of having ice in it, who doesn't love a cold beer! For dinner we ordered the gumbo with sausage, red beans and rice, and the twin lobster rolls. The gumbo had a dark roux. It was decent but the spice level was a bit much for me. After about four bites, my husband took over. He enjoyed it. Next was the red beans and rice with sausage. The flavor was good. My only complaint was the sausage pieces were too big for one bite. Lastly was the twin lobster rolls with Cajun fries. The fries were crispy and I'd compare them to Charlie's. The roll had generous portions of delicious lobster. We chose a hot roll but they do serve it cold if you prefer. The basket is served with a 2 oz helping of melted butter for you to drizzle on your rolls. The flat top rolls were buttery, soft, and grilled to perfection. Overall, we enjoyed them but they were missing just a touch of something, maybe a spice, I can't pinpoint it. I would definitely get them again though! The food was all hot and fresh. I overheard Eric telling another customer they don't have heat lamps and everything is brought out as soon as it comes off the stove. The location is in the center of booming shopping centers. This is a great lunch or dinner spot that welcomes casual family friendly dining. I'm glad we returned, we will be back.
