    First time and this will be my spot for crawfish. I called my order in and Armani answered and made suggestions. I got 3ilbs of Cajun crawfish with corn and broccoli as sides and we added the gumbo and boudin balls. Everything was fresh and delicious. The crawfish seasoned to perfection with a great spice level. The restaurant just opened and they were understaffed but Armani was awesome with her customer service. Great attitude. You guys have a great restaurant will be back.

    At 2:30 on a Monday we were the only people eating in. There were 2 others waiting on to go orders. The young ladies at the counter taking your order were friendly and helpful to us first timers. On Yelp there are several reviews stating they had catfish here but guess what? They've NEVER sold catfish per the young lady the only fish they have ever had is Pollock and it is delicious! I got the pick 3, with one pc fish and dbl shrimp which turned out to be 8 large PERFECTLY cooked shrimp that were absolutely scrumptious! Served with coleslaw meh I'm not a slaw fan, 3 hushpuppies very good and the BEST FRIES yum! Very clean even the restrooms with 3 tvs but only 2 were on. My friend got the whole fried shrimp po boy with fries and drink. He had so many shrimps on his Sammie that he had a meal with what fell out! Those were smaller shrimp but very tasty and cooked to perfection. We were happy that the place we were going to eat that is next door is closed on Mondays so that we could try Louisiana Shack. We definitely will be adding to our regular rotation.

    The staff here really knows what they're doing! I ordered the full shrimp po' boy along with the boudin balls, and both were immaculate. Unlike other places that fill their sandwiches with just bread and lettuce, this one was packed full of shrimp! The boudin balls offered a unique taste for me, and they were bursting with flavor! This spot seems like it could be a nice vibe after work or on the weekends with family! They do serve cold beer as well. Nice to have good spots like this around.

    I've been wanting to try this place for awhile but I don't love boils. Saw they have a shrimp bowl with noodles, broccoli, potatoes, and corn and they have a creamy garlic butter sauce instead of the spicy red sauce. 12/10! It was so good and the portion was huge. The container is about the size of my head. My husband got the shrimp po boy meal, comes with fries and hush puppies. He got a half portion and it was a large size for only half a sandwich.

    The food was EXCELLENT and priced really well for what you get. Plenty of parking. Clean restaurant. Polite, efficient staff. Nice bathrooms.

    Crawfish

    I always order from them bc their crawifish is so good and they have live crawfish when it's in season. I ordered today on DoorDash and I just thought this was so cute. I don't even think they have the option to order live right now but just the thought of writing it was so sweet. If you're in the area you have to try their crawfish.

    I ordered via Uber Eats and I enjoyed my food at home. It was packaged well. The food was still pretty warm when it arrived and tasted fresh. I got the shrimp box with garlic butter seasoning. I wasn't sure about the spice, so I selected 1 out 3; I'll definitely try 2 next time because 1 isn't spicy at all. Overall, good value for the price and a good find on Uber Eats.

    I been eating at this restaurant for years. The staff and the food is good. I never had a bad experience. You definitely get what you pay for. I'm sitting here now trying to decide am I going to drive from the city to Lawrenceville just to eat Louisiana Shack.

    Food: okay for the price. I would focus more so on the fried options rather than the seafood boil. The boil is alright and you can find better elsewhere. Service: NICE WORKERS. They gave good recs. This is sort of self service-ish. You order up front. Then they bring the food to you. Ambiance: it's alright. Tables and bathroom look clean.

First off the place needs to be seriously cleaned, the floors were gross and sticky like they haven't been mopped or cleaned in ages. Likewise the tables and chairs needed to be cleaned. Placed my order of catfish and fries and when they came out there were clearly over cooked, dark in color which suggest the oil needed to be changed and the food had an after tastes. The soda machine had 2 out of service sign meaning no Fanta, I tried the sprite and that was just soda water. The refrigerator behind the counter had 4 drinks total. I requested 2 plates, sorry we're out of plates so I was given to go containers. I requested 2 forks and after searching sorry were have no forks. How does a restaurant not have eating utensils? Only spoons, I actually felt bad for the young lady who was at the check out, she was very apologetic and I'm sure it wasn't her fault but at this point just CLOSE THE DOORS PERMANENTLY OR GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER... Oh and the bathroom was filthy as well, it was a horrible experience especially driving 40 miles to get there. Everyone that entered while I was there complained about something and left... So much potential with the right management and staff. DO BETTER OR CLOSE THE DOORS

The host said it was to celebrate the spring season since they did a apres ski theme during the winter. So festive. Okay so boom, we came here on a whim since we were going to a concert in the area later that evening. Surprisingly it wasn't busy for a Saturday which I expected it to be. Unfortunately though they had upcoming reservations so we weren't able to sit in the main room. We sat in their second dining room which was off to the side but still decorated. Our service was still good and the waiter was very attentive. For apps, we got the She Crab soup. I would've preferred for the crab meat to be sprinkled on top vs. in the soup but nonetheless it was still delicious. Super fresh!! Omg. I even contemplated on switching my entree to the stuffed grouper to get some more crab meat. I ended up getting the Shrimp scampi which was a great choice. And let me tell you, they did not disappoint with the shrimp. 6 jumbo pieces. Omg. The entree was done pretty well and it was just the right portion size. If we had more time, I would've ordered their toffee bread pudding or the honey crème brulee but that's all the more reason to come back. Oh and order the It was all a dream cocktail.

I attempted to order the crab and spinach dip with the garlic bread like I typically do at other locations, and my server told me if I were to order it with the garlic bread, it would be an additional charge and I would only get two. I was shocked. I've ordered that and other locations, and that was my first time hearing that I would be charged extra to swap out the bread and then on top of that only receive two pieces. I ordered the Texas redfish pontchartrain with mashed potatoes. I asked if I could add cheese, and I was told yes; however, when it came, there was no cheese, and our server took so long to return, I didn't even bother. In addition, by that time I was already turned off with the bland fish that had several bones, minimal sauce, and overcooked shrimp. I was extremely displeased. I wish I would have just stuck with a fried dish, such as the chicken tenders and shrimp. That would be a safer choice. Both the fried shrimp and chicken tenders were pretty good, but know that they have a kick. The brownie dessert was pretty good. It was actually the highlight of the evening after a disappointing meal. I will never return to this location.

    Juju Seafood | Duluth, GA…read more Juju Seafood is a Korean restaurant that has customizable seafood boils, Korean seafood dishes, and late-night Korean comfort food. The owner is very cool and friendly. Is a pretty small place and got a cool chill vibe. I like they open late. Here's everything we tried: Spicy Chicken Feet Stew A generous 2-3 person portion loaded with bean sprouts that soak up all the flavorful sauce. The chicken feet were braised until incredibly tender, and the broth was spicy, rich, and incredibly addictive. The rice that came with it needs more mayo, so is more creamy and bc is not sticking together to make it into a ball. Beef & Shrimp Pancakes (Recommend ) Mini Korean-style pancakes served half beef and half shrimp with a chili soy dipping sauce. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Garlic Butter Seafood Boil (Recommend ) One of their signature dishes! You can customize your own seafood boil with your favorite seafood and seasoning. We chose the Garlic Butter flavor, and it was rich, buttery, and packed with garlic without being overwhelming. Spicy Braised Chicken & Crab Stew Available Fridays and Saturdays only, with only 10 portions made each day. The sweet and spicy broth is cooked with potatoes and fragrant perilla leaves that add so much flavor. First come, first served! Lychee Soju (My Favorite , but little pricy) Served with one whole lychee per shot! Fruity, refreshing, and so smooth that you could barely taste the soju.

I had tried a seafood boil from here a while back, and the sauce wasn't as good as what I've had from a local competitor. However, my boyfriend insisted that we give it another try, so we ended up ordering the Kickin Combo #1, along with a dozen raw oysters and an order of fried oysters and fries. The raw oysters came out first. I didn't want any, so they were for my boyfriend. Immediately after trying the first one, he wasn't happy with it. He said it tasted fishy but decided to give another one a try, thinking maybe the first was just a bad one. Unfortunately, the second wasn't any better, so he sent them back. Next came the fried food, which is never a miss. I absolutely love the fried oysters here. Then the seafood boil arrived, and at first glance, it looked promising. The seafood appeared large and fresh. I grabbed a shrimp first, sucked the head, and immediately noticed a strong fishy taste. I then dipped the shrimp into the sauce, but the sauce was watery and lacked flavor. I tried a few of the other items in the boil, including a mussel, but the texture was extremely chewy. Between my boyfriend and me, we ate a total of about ten or less things from the boil before deciding we were done. Unfortunately, it was not good whatsoever, and I was extremely disappointed. I asked if there was anything that could be done, and the manager offered to reheat it. I explained that the temperature wasn't the issue but the fishy taste and the texture of the seafood. He then said there wasn't anything else he could do besides take 20% off the bill. While I appreciated the discount, it was still disappointing given how much of the meal we were unable to eat. The service itself was good, and the ambiance was chill, especially since we went during dinner. Unfortunately, though, the food quality of the seafood boil and raw oysters overshadowed the positives for me. All in all, I won't be returning.
