I had some of their cajun pasta and calamari, both were quite small serving sizes for their price. What put me off was adding shrimp to the pasta for 5.99 only to be given exactly five pieces of shrimp. The pasta had nothing cajun about it and served on a big plate to look bigger than it is, far too big for the small table! The pasta itself was nice, however it tasted like grocery store jar alfredo sauce. And the restaurant had far too loud music for so little people there, couldn't even talk properly to the server or family despite sitting so close on a tiny table. Would not recommend

Great place for seafood boil! I was craving a spot that does seafood boils/ seafood by the pound. A…read morelong time ago, in my mid to late 20s era, we would order seafood boil for Father's Day so this was very nostalgic for me. I've seen the sign for Sea Shack from Route 59 and finally got to try it when my sister was visiting Naperville. I called in an order and it was ready in 15 minutes. What we ordered for 3 adults: 1 lb peeled shrimp, mild, + corn + potatoes 1 lb black mussels, mild, + corn + potatoes 1 lb clams, mild 1 corn on the side 1 sausage on the side onion rings chicken tenders and fries 2 orders of rice We had plenty of food and enough for leftovers. My favorite part might be the cajun butter sauce with white rice... even more than the seafood. I love white rice with basically any sauce. The food was fresh, the sauce was mild as requested, still flavorful and not too salty. If you order the clams on its own, no sides, the bag might seem a little small but that's just because the clam meat is so small. For takeout, your seafood will come double bagged so it was leak proof. We decided to empty the bags into bowls since we were doing family style, and it was a hearty meal. I can't comment on the ambiance since it was a takeout order, but we enjoyed our food. We'll be back!

But this place very Sushi quality was really good even the appetizers were really good I love the kani salad, it's the first time in a long time that I had a good one. I think next time it would be better for more people that way we can try more stuff on the menu, they do charge a dollar per piece of leftovers. They also have a section for seafood boil which I am really interested in trying and because of that I am definitely coming back. Service was great. Parking is not an issue. And the place is pretty special because it is one piece themed which I found out was a very famous anime. Happy eating!

We ordered several sushi special rolls, regular rolls, and sushi pieces for take out for a group…read more The good things were that they packaged the food nicely, were ready in time, and included lots of ginger and wasabi, which we love. I wanted to give them 4 or 5 stars, BUT: one item, the All Blue Roll, is dangerously mislabeled. The menu described it as "spicy salmon, avocado inside, top w. salmon and lemon, top w. tobiko, yozu sauce." Interestingly that's the exact same description given for their Zeff Roll, which costs $1.25 more. However, the All Blue Roll is NOT topped with salmon or lemon, just shredded imitation crab under the tobiko and yozu sauce. We had people with shellfish allergies in our group, and purposefully ordered nothing with any shellfish ingredients. For those who will ask, imitation crab is made with crab-derived ingredients and will trigger a shellfish allergy. I don't know if the menu is incorrect or if the chef made a random substitution, but if we hadn't noticed in time, we would have had a life-threatening medical emergency to deal with. It also forced us to question and take apart every other item in our order to make sure other items were safe for our group. Put a big damper on what would otherwise have been a great evening. For the prices they charge, the overall quality was acceptable, nothing to rave about but fine. But this gaffe will prevent us from going here again.

I asked them to replace the red sauce with queso and she did. Unfortunately, I thought it was going to be a cheese sauce, but it was melted cheese on top of the burrito. Had it been queso? I probably would've liked a little bit better, but it was kind of bland. I almost went with the skirt steak burrito, but she recommended this one and I felt like I probably should go with her recommendation. Next time I come, I will probably go with the skirt steak or a fajita chicken. Unfortunately, the Barbacoa was not as good as I was hoping or as good as I've had in other locations.

I had the Dungeness crab boil combo mild with seasoned garlic butter, and it was incredible. With how much crab I had, I would've wished for more sauce (so next time I will order that option they have for a cheap price). Overall, I really loved the place and will come back!

Baby, we started off on the WRONG foot. I came here with my family of eight, which I understand can…read morebe a little complicated for a restaurant, but honey, I made this reservation THREE WEEKS in advance. Three. Weeks. So I thought we were all set. Our reservation was for 6:00, and we arrived at 5:54. We were told to wait until six, which was perfectly fine. Six o'clock rolls around and we're told they're still cleaning the table. Okay, we wait. Then we wait. And wait. Thirty minutes later, we find out the people who had the table STILL hadn't even left. Baby...what exactly were we reserving three weeks ago, a future dream? They offered us a complimentary appetizer, which I appreciate in theory, but when you've got a party of eight waiting 40 minutes past their reservation time, I'm not really looking for the cheapest appetizer on the menu. I'm looking for the table I reserved. Eventually, we were seated, and thank GOD for our server Alexis B, because they completely turned the experience around. Funny, knowledgeable, incredibly kind, and genuinely one of the best servers I've ever had. If I could give them five stars separately, I would. They made us feel welcome and somehow kept the whole table laughing after that rocky start. The food had some hits and misses. The crab cake was a little too spicy for my taste, although the rest of the table enjoyed it. The mini sliders, however? DELICIOUS. That buttery, well seasoned bun was doing exactly what it needed to do. Then came my Entourage burger, and baby...THAT burger understood the assignment. It was absolutely packed with flavor. So good that I practically inhaled it. My server even asked if I wanted another one because apparently I ate it fast enough to qualify for a second round. Unfortunately, the management situation left a lot to be desired. After the issues getting our table, the managers seemed to keep watching our group throughout the night. If you're going to stare, baby, at least commit to the performance! It made an already awkward situation feel even more uncomfortable. Honestly, my server Alexis B, was the ONLY reason this experience ended on a positive note. They were so charming and personable that by the end, they felt more like a friend than a server. I'm genuinely going to miss them. The food was good, and that burger was fantastic, but a three-week reservation should not turn into a 40 minute wait with a party of eight standing around wondering when they're going to eat. So unfortunately, I'm leaving with two stars. The food gave me reasons to come back, but the reservation experience and management gave me reasons to stay home. And to my server: you were the star of the night. Protect this person at all costs.

5 stars for Lemont. Probably 4 stars in Chicago…read more Walked in on a Saturday for an early dinner. It was 5:45, I didn't have a reservation, a they didn't have a table available until 7:30 but there were spots at the bar which they said was full service. My friend and I cozied up to it and ate there. What a surprisingly good experience. The staff was super friendly and that bartenders had great suggestions. I hate when people at the restaurant say everything is good. Not these young ladies. They made some sound suggestions which we followed. French onion soup and the steak frites were both excellent and priced well IMO. They have a really good whiskey/bourbon selection with a few hard to find bottles. I settled on a Blantons neat. They had Pappy, but I'm not wasting money on that anymore. Food came out quickly and we ate and watched a baseball game. The locals at the bar told us about their membership program where I guess for a small mo they fee you get a bottle of wine and a charcuterie plate once a month. Seemed like a pretty good deal. I don't live anywhere near there, but if I did I'd certainly join. In any case, if you live anywhere close, this is definitely a worthwhile restaurant to visit. Seems like there were quite a few singles there as well if you are looking to meet someone. I have no idea what the dating scene is like in Lemont, but this might be a good spot to try.
