    The half eaten egg from the first bag I believe they DUG OUT THE TRASH and reserved to me. Spend your Money ELSEWHERE!You've been warned.
    Rob L.

    (Update) Cut the crap Pier One. Your "response" is pure lies!!! Your waitress communicated very clearly exactly what was done to my food. Stop passing the buck. Let me guess, the waitress is also to blame for your manager's lack of professionalism, and abundance of disrespect. He screamed at me, then stormed off without even hearing what I had to say. Unacceptable and inexcusable. That's the waitresses fault too right? Your manager and kitchen crew got caught giving below standard food and customer service. Just own it and improve. I personally wouldn't step foot in that hellhole if I was offered a lifetime supply of seafood boils. And I still stand firm in saying no one else should either. This place is DISGUSTING. As I said before to anyone reading this... EAT AT YOUR OWN RISK. (Original post below) If I could give this place a ZERO I would. I have never in life been to a place where the customer service was THIS bad. First off, the moment I entered the door I asked to be seated at a booth, but was told their booths were reserved for parties of two. I saw no problem with that and proceeded to be asked to sit next to an outlet. My waitress, who was super kind and professional, ended up sitting me at a booth after all next to an outlet. The manager starts screaming at the waitress from behind the bar for seating me there. Then looks at me and rolls his eyes. Against my better judgement I stayed. I ordered my meal (a crab boil bag), and when it came it was missing my crab legs I ordered. I asked the waitress (a new woman who was very professional and kind) to take the entire plate back and have the kitchen make me a FRESH BAG with my crab legs IN THE BAG this time. I told her I do not want any of the contents in the FIRST BAG/plate to be in the next bag. I wanted everyone freshly made. She assured me it would all be brand new content and that she threw the bag in the TRASH. I don't want to eat cold egg, cold potatoes and muscles that were re-warmed , so that was reassuring to me. Moments later she comes back with my "new bag" (so I thought) with my crab legs. I started to eat....next thing I notice I see my half eaten egg from the FIRST bag and the half eaten potato and corn cop that was eaten off of...again from the FIRST BAG. I called the waitress back and I told her to bring the manager over. He came over with a horrible attitude and started arguing with me because I ate three muscles (before I noticed they were NOT FRESH) and accused me of ordering and EATING a pound. It was half a pound I ordered. I told this jerk there clearly is a miscommunication with your waitress and the kitchen because I wanted a fresh meal. The waitress was confused and told the manager she threw my first plate in the trash. Did the manager/staff pull the contents from the trash and placed it back On the second plate then served it to me??!?! The manager then stated counting the content in the bag and tried to make me pay for it. I told him, in so little words, I'm not paying for a thing on or off this table and or plate. He starts speaking some gibberish I didn't understand and then storms off. Why?! Why the hostility?! I hope it's not because of the way I look?? His staff sure did have a lot to say regarding how he treats "customers of color", but I'll leave it at that. Save your money, the food wasn't that good anyway. Watery and bland spices and . All of which I can look past. BAD Customer services is something I can not.

    Well we tried this new restaurant we had some boiled seafood . We were not disappointed the food was hot seasoned and delicious. They have a full service bar several TVs and a nice friendly staff. I had the 1/2 lb crabs and 1/2 lb clams both in the Pier house sauce that's delicious . We had a nice waitress also . We also tried the whiting and Cajun fries . So the menu is fried or boiled . They had some items I want to go back and try so we will be back!

    Food first!... food was just ok! I got a bag with half lbs shrimp, half lb of snow crab and added sausage! I will say the shrimp and sausage u get plenty of... not so much crab just 1 claw! I still got a full belly though so no complaints. Flavor was ok. It's not like the food was so great i can't wait to go back.. but it wasn't bad like I'll never eat here again! If that make sense... So the staff.... our waiter was very good. But the front staff or the hostess was not good at all! Came in she ask how many i said 2 she said "he will be right with you" pointing to a guy that was running back and forth manager I'm guessing... ok so we sit and wait!! The the front area starts getting full.... I realized she never said how long the wait would be or took a name!! And i was gonna be pissed if other people got seated before us... i go back up and ask do you know how long the wait will be...she said I'm not sure home many? i said do u want to take my name! She acted like she did not want to write my name down and rolled her eyes... few mins later we were seated but if i Didn't get back up and make her write my name we would of got skipped! They need a better system!

    Finally decided to try this place out for the first time yesterday....Never. Freaking. Again. It was horrible. I ordered a boiled bag w/ snow crab legs, shrimp, and sausage with Hot Pier 11 sauce. The sauce looked and tasted like dirty ass, thin ass bath water. The shrimp also wasn't clean and had big chunks of feces in every piece. I couldn't even finish my meal. I am utterly disgusted.

    Why is there lemon in this boil. Just ruined the entire taste  Shame on you...
    Jeanine L.

    I have been a customer since the begining. The size of the crabs were way better I must say the crabs are very tiny like bottom feeders. While other establishments have way bigger crabs and their flavor is wy stronger and zestier

    Super disappointed in this restaurant. I have been going here for years and this is the only sea food place me and my family likes to go to but not anymore after the experience I had today. I will be getting the word out to anybody that will listen to not go to this location or any pier 11's for that matter. Today I received expired food, I called the restaurant and asked to speak to the manager. I didn't even speak to the manager because the same guy that answered the phone and said he would go get the manager was also the guy that gave me a 10 percent discount on my next order. I personally feel like 10 percent isn't enough but hopefully this will help someone save their money and breath on cussing them out for giving them expired food as well. Although this is my first time receiving a boil like this I won't be returning, I'm very disgusted.

    Shrimp Boil with Garlic Butter
    Tamieka C.

    I had the shrimp boil with egg, potato, sausage, and corn. I did the garlic butter sauce with medium spice. It was amazing! I did a to go order, which took less than 10 mins to come out. And I got the lunch special which was only $14. I went back for take out again a second time last week and it was just as good. I'm going again today to dine in for the first time!

    King crab legs
    Kenyatta N.

    The food was good. I don't think two king crab legs is worth $40 so it was def over priced to me. My main issue is that both times I've been here, we've had to sit and wait 30 minutes until someone even comes up to ask you for drinks! It takes FOREVER to get ANYTHING here, whether food or a freaking water. If service was faster and the food matched the prices this place would be way better. It tasted pretty good but certainly wasn't worth everything you experience to get your food in the first place.

    C1 Seafood Boil
    LJ W.

    Had my wife's birthday dinner here and I was very pleased. They were very accommodating and professional. The prices were very reasonable and the portions were very generous. I ordered the C1 Seafood Boil which came with Snow Crab, Shrimp, Sausage, Corn and Potatoes with Garlic Butter. This was my first time at a seafood boil so I wasn't too sure if I was supposed to eat from the bag, so I said screw it and dumped it onto my plate. The food was very seasoned. They gave me huge portions of sausage and shrimp. The food came out fairly quickly given the fact we had a party of 9. Our servers were very attentive and all of them wished my wife a happy birthday. She was very pleased and we will definitely be back. I will say this I ordered a fried whiting basket for my 6 year old, and I have to say that was some of the best whiting I have EVER had. Next time I think I will get that because the fried seasoning was the shiznit! I kept digging my hands in his basket, poor kid... Seafood Boil 1-5=4.5. Whiting 1-5=5!

    Been here twice in the last week for carry out. Food is amazing (if u get boiled seafood order noodles). The seafood is fresh. The service is great. The interior is very nice. The prices are amazing for seafood and the quality. The house seasoning us amazing on the mussels with noodles and the fried shrimp are big and crispy. Can't wait to go back again!!!!

    I've been on the hunt for a good fried fish spot and Shrimp Lips got the job done! I got the…read morecatfish nugget meal with a side of fried okra and it was so good. It also came with 4 hush puppies and I loved how seasoned they were without being hard or salty. There's plenty of dishes on the menu and I plan to make my way through tasting them all.

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while, but I never seem to be on that side of town on the…read moredays that they are open. I finally made it today. Shrimp lips is a small building. Looks like it was probably an old ice cream shop at one time. We ordered online, which was quite easy. Our food was ready when we arrived. There is no inside seating and you pick up your food at the window. You have to ring a bell for service which I had a hard time finding at first, but then located it on the right window. You pick up your food from the left window. The lady at the counter was very nice and thanked me for my business. Now let's get on to the food. I ordered the half portion of shrimp with two sides. I chose the corn and the potato. My shrimp food was very filling and good. Corn was sweet and red skin potato was also good. Hubby ordered the fried tilapia which came with fries and three hush puppies. Those were two big pieces of fish. He also enjoyed it. However, for the price point, he felt they should have better hot sauce, at least Texas Pete, not generic. They do have a private parking lot and we sat in the car and ate our food. I personally could've used more Cajun seasoning but overall it was a very good experience and I will return when I find myself back in the area.
