We finally got our drinks about 12:35 and placed our appetizer order. Appetizers came out about 15 minutes later and both were delicious. The Nori mayo makes the corn ribs, definitely recommend ordering them. The spinach and artichoke dip was very good as well, a bit spicy for my kid, no big deal. Our party order: Fish & chips Grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and a side salad Cheese pizza The library burger The cheese pizza and burger were the only edible items. Don't order the chicken breast without getting it Cajun blackened, unless you want a dry non seasoned over cooked chicken breast! The fish were so full of grease they fell apart as soon as you picked them & were inedible. 0/10. After being here an hour, we were getting a bit antsy. Once we had hit an hour and 10 minutes it had gotten to be a bit too much. Our waiter came by and kindly let us a know a table of 12 people were waiting on their food and then ours would be out we weren't in a rush so I guess it didn't matter, but we were beginning to be uncomfortable! The atmosphere is also strange? There are grills outside the front door, flour and other items stacked high in the hallway, soap and toilet paper shoved on the floor under the sinks. It feels very chaotic and unorganized. We were given a discount and key lime pie & a cookie for our "troubles". Even with the discount we were still over $100 for a bad meal.

Everything tasted spectacular. I give it five stars. I ate there twice in one week because I was there on business. I got the Thursday special which was two crab leg clusters a half pound of shrimp, corn and potatoes. The house special mild is everything perfect heat perfect flavor all around delicious the manager. Lily was very helpful. I had a small snag on my first order and she made it right I would drive three hours out of my way to go get Seafood from this restaurant because it was that good. The prices were very decent. The flavor was spot on. I can say that was one of the best boiled seafood restaurants I have ever eaten at. I surely will make a return trip there.. the ambience of the restaurant is nice. It's on the backside of the strip mall where you can easily get in and out which makes for a great dinner. The only downside is they don't take call in phone orders nor can you pay over the phone which was a huge inconvenience, but it was OK. The quality and the flavor of the food made up for all of it.

This review spans 2 visits. I never got around to posting my review for the first visit (4/03/25)…read moreso I'm going to clump them together. (2/12/26) Both visits were pretty much identical. Both in the lounge. Both tucked away against a wall to accommodate the service dog with us. Both visits included the Good Times menu and four beers. So despite the time span- prices were still the same. $103 both times. Extremely affordable for what you get. Minor differences separate the two visits. Our first visit we both ordered the filet mignon. Incredibly tender and so delicious! On the second visit he ordered the filet again and complained that it was a little gristly. The desserts were larger on our first visit and only a bite or two on the second. We tried both the cheesecake and bread pudding the first time. The bread pudding was so much better. The second visit was also my birthday so there was additional dessert. Some kind of light fluffy angel food cake with strawberries. It was Devine! On the house because the staff absolutely rocks! The lighting in the bar area is very red and terrible for Yelp photos but we improvised and adapted.

I ordered the stuffed blue crab, and my husband had the Pork Coppa Tchoup with grilled cabbage. The grilled cabbage was excellent, but the pork was just mediocre, and the stuffed blue crab was good but didn't really stand out. Service was slower than expected. We eventually had to ask for our check, and we were never offered dessert. That said, the restaurant was hosting a large party, so I'm willing to give them some grace since I'm sure that isn't their typical level of service. Overall, we enjoyed the atmosphere and the oysters, but considering the prices, the rest of the meal didn't quite live up to expectations.

As the crawfish gets more mature and the prices start going down I'm back at least a few times a month.
