We were immediately seated, given menus, and shortly thereafter presented with the BEST TASTING, complimentary hot, fresh tortilla chips and house made red salsa! Price point is very reasonable. A small pour of Merlot for under $6. I recommend the Mexican Street Corn appetizer. Fresh corn off the cob mixed with mayonnaise, cheeses, spice and a touch of lime. Yum! My companion enjoyed a Horchata and the Pollo Monterey. Though, aside from the delicious refried beans, the entree was blander than not. Noise level was moderate on this weeknight. Recommended.

The Tangy Crab was a home run. We were there for the crab legs and that's exactly what we got. The bar had a bottle of prosecco that wasn't on the menu. Getting to have bubbles with our crab legs just topped off the visit. Saraphina was our server. She's very soft spoken but an absolute gem. It's an hour drive from my house but I will definitely be back when I'm the area.

I was staying at the Clarion Hotel attached to the restaurant, upon seeing an poster in the…read moreelevators, I decided to give it a shot. At first I thought the Seafood Boil were run by Vietnamese, only to realize the restaurant was operated by Chinese cooks. Kid server recommended the Blue Punch and I ordered another Margarita Lime since it was Happy Hour on a Monday. I started off with a Philly Eggrolls...pretty mid...exactly what you'd expect out of a Sysco Catalog because c'Mon who in their right mind will hand roll a Philly Egg Roll...let alone trays upon trays everyday in the back kitchen. It was salty, and over powdered by wannabephillycheescakeness. Next the Raw Oysters...these were the highlight of the night...I know they may have been frozen..but in all honesty it's been 3 hours since I swallowed 6 oysters and I'm still alive. Probably the cocktails aided in killing any excess bacteria.. And onto the main entree, I went with their signature boil and just want to go on the record. The shrimps will taste better with head on. The crab legs were good. The thing I didn't feel was up to my expectations was their house sauce that they boil everything together in. It lacked a punch, it lacked flavor. There was an overall lack of Garlic, Lemon Zest, Lemon Pepper, White Pepper and Brown Pepper, and there was a lack of MSG, and also lack of cayenne peppers and ghost pepper powders. And because of this, I'm giving the Boil a grade of C. Service was A+ Cocktails were B+ Oysters were A Appetizers were C Boil was C So the average was 3.5 to 4 stars out of 5. I forgot about the lobster bisque...I know it's not real lobster, they usually put langastinio crawfish in there...but the soup was too Salty.

To be forthright, just not good. Everything tasted like it had just come out of the microwave. The tacos were soggy and had only one piece of chicken on each, the rice and beans were bland. I thought I'd give it a try for lunch this week, but I can't see myself going back. There are better lunch options around! read more
