    King Pao chicken.....LOTS of Celery, dried chilis, and carrots.
    Mark S.

    I have never had an Asian entree with so much celery and carrots...probably 90% of the meal. There was a lot of heat in the sauce but the flavor wasn't great... it was also very thin and watery. I will probably go back, but cut the celery and carrots next time. I would like to give them another chance.

    Egg drop soup
    Lysette R.

    I tried Big Wok after Hot Spots (next door) disappointed me twice in a row with dry and overly battered General tso's chicken. I ordered an egg drop soup and sesame chicken with fried rice. $14 for the entire order. The egg drop soup had great flavor, but the wonton strips tasted stale. There was no crunch. The fried rice is usually good, I've gotten the lunch special several times. The "fried rice" I got with the sesame chicken was very disappointing. I wasn't expecting any meat in the fried rice as I got a meat entree, but it was just some egg and a string or two of onion. Should've just gotten white rice as this is basically what that was and I believe there was an up charge for the fried rice. The sesame chicken is good. The pieces of chicken are smaller and easier to eat; they also aren't overly breaded. There were two random pieces of broccoli in there, which felt unnecessary and odd. I can't speak to the ambiance as I got drive thru, however, from what I was able to see from my car it looks like a normal fast food restaurant. Not the greatest Chinese food I've ever had, but it's better than my recent experiences at Hot Spots.

The decor was fun but it looked like it hasn't been cleaned in a long time. I'm talking cob webs along the table and napkin holders that looks like they haven't been washed in a decade. The food was a bit expensive. The crab in both bags was not hot all the way through. The crawfish and shrimp were good. The lobster tail was ok but overall nothing spectacular. Just an ok visit for us. Still looking for our go to seafood place locally.

    We had a party of 7 for lunch at 1pm on a Friday. Our hostess told us up front that there would be…read morean 18% service fee for a large party, which is kind of expected and I appreciated her telling us up front. The problem we had wasn't necessarily with the service, although it was quite slow considering that there weren't very many other tables occupied. The main problem was with the quality of the food and drinks. I thought the gator kickers were good, and the Cajun fries were hot and crispy, so things started well, but it went south with our first round of drinks. Two people ordered beer - 1 draft beer and 1 longneck, and both tasted terribly skunky. We sent those back and just switched to water. When our food arrived, everything was hot and presented well ... until I noticed that several crawfish tails in my etoufee were dark gray. Im not talking about a vein running through it, but the full tail looked like a rotted toe. I had eaten several bites of it and it was seasoned well, but I stopped when I noticed the first dark gray tail. I looked through and saw a couple other gray ones and stopped eating. The icing on the cake was when the waitress took the 3/4 full beers away and bumped the table with the water pitcher, pouring water on the table, the seat next to me and down my leg, soaking my shorts and sock. Accidents happen, I get it, but she didn't apologize, offer me a towel or anything. We had to waive her down after not seeing her for almost 15 minutes just to get our check, so I guess the service wasn't very good either. This was our first time visiting, and we won't be back. I give 2 stars instead of 1 just because I liked the gator kickers.

Atmosphere Fish camp-rustic-pet friendly Many tv's with a variety of sports and news. Seating The bar is inside around the corner. Booths, low top tables-great for groups, porch with outdoor seating. Service At the counter-ring the bell-friendly and attentive. Menu Starters, burgers, many sides. We were here for Denton Blazin Burger 2026. I had the burger on the bun with cole slaw.The slaw was creamy and a generous portion. The burger-Crabby Cow-was a juicy burger topped with pepper jack cheese and a crab cake, fresh tomato slices and shredded lettuce-all topped with. House remoulade sauce and a hush puppy bun garnish. Very tasty and huge. The bun had no problem handling it. My husband had the same-bunless and with grilled zucchini. The zucchini was nicely grilled. Serve yourself fountain drinks and iced tea. Full bat and bottled drinks. Happy hour drink specials. Summary Convenient location, large parking lot, fun atmosphere, great menu, friendly service. Love this place!

We ordered the lobster chowder and the crab leg pot, and both were absolutely delicious. Even though the place was busy, our food came out pretty quickly, which was impressive. After finishing, we realized our crab pot didn't include the usual corn and potatoes, which was a bit of a bummer. Still, everything tasted great overall. I also liked that you can make your own drinks and grab extra items yourself--it's a nice touch. Honestly, everything I saw coming out of the kitchen looked amazing. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes!

I had never heard of it, but I am so happy she decided to take me I paused to survey the menu board and decided upon The Sampler to "sample" the most on my visit. I tried the CoCo Shrimp, Lemon Herb shrimp and Butter Garlic shrimp. They were served on a bed of salad (I opted out in light of the explosive diarrhea news and lettuce recalls) and the most delicious buttery rice I have ever eaten. I had to stop as rice is a starch.
