I recently visited this food truck when they came to Raleigh. They are based out of Jacksonville but visit other cities. I have been trying to catch up to them and finally saw them by happen-chance. The staff were very friendly. I got the Grand Pooh bah Tray. Crab Clusters and shrimp and Sausage, which they were out of. They were about to close. She asked if I wasted something inits place extra broccoli or corn, I said corn, got Broccoli. It comes with 1 pooh-bah sauce, I ordered 2 extra but just got butter instead. The crab was very good. The shrimp just ok. The corn (1) was good. Potato's were ok. My friend liked the broccoli. The eggs were just ok. Slightly over cooked for me. A little rubbery, like I stated they were about to close, that could possibly account for this. For $75 this is a one and done for me. read more

My review is based on their food truck. We recently ordered 3 cold trays and 4 Palm Punches for a birthday celebration with four people. Someone from our group drove 40 minutes to their Greensboro, NC setup and was met with kindness, prompt service, and a smooth pickup experience right at 12 PM. The trays traveled well and stayed in the fridge until 8 PM. Once we reheated everything--WOW. We were blown away. We ordered the Cold Poobah Combo, Cold Royal, and Cold Everything, and it was a ton of food: crab clusters, large shrimp, chicken skewers, fajita steak, sausage, potatoes, broccoli, corn, and delicious sauces for each tray. Everything was seasoned perfectly and incredibly flavorful. Here's the shocker: I don't usually like seafood, and this still ranks as one of the best meals I've ever had. They've taken a common seafood concept and made it 1000x better. The quality did not drop one bit despite it being a cold tray. This setup allows them to serve more towns without sacrificing flavor--genius! The Palm Punch was fantastic too--we even used it as a champagne mixer the next morning. Minor feedback: * It would be helpful to include reheating instructions via email or website * Had some issues adding extras on the webform--might be a server load issue * Only got 3 corn cobs--would've loved a few more over potatoes (next time!) Thank you for bringing this amazing experience to Greensboro. We'll absolutely be back--and we're already planning a trip to your brick-and-mortar location. Don't sleep on the cold trays--they are SO worth it! read more

The spot is a place well known in the community. I tell you they treat people like family. What a good vibe to be around. The seating area is very small but still seen people eating in. I had the chicken wings... they are out of this world good. I wouldddd recommend hot sauce or ask for some house sauce, even without any sauce it's the best wings in the area. The fries again SLAPPED. The slaw was so so but aight if you are into slaw. My daughter got the poobah (i think thats how it is spelt) she said it was amazing. The sauce was creamy, buttery and cajun. The best part was the crab legs.... in order of deliciousness to her was - corn, potatoes,eggs, sausage (i thought sausage was a hit, she doesn't mess with sausage like that). This would be a solid 5/5 place except two things - you have to plan when you go because they change from truck/location to store. - And the wait. We got there a few mins after 3pm and didn't get the food to leave until almost 430. Not sure how to remedy this, 2&3 people behind us got their food before us. Not sure why people behind us was able to get their food and eat before even getting my food but maybe if i come more that will change. If you are a seafood boil / cajun food fan - PLEASE STOP IN HERE. Recommend ordering online, no phones were answered while i was there but it's worth it. Food 9.7/10, service 8/10, wait time 1-2/10. Price for all mentioned and two drinks including tip was over 90$. All seafood like this is expensive but please support local business like this. We WILL be back but WILL plan better to see if the experience is different. read more

Service was awesome! Super friendly & noticed them going around to different tables, asking how the food is, & clearing out empty trays for the guests. Strawberry lemonade is a 10/10, as well as the food. The royal seafood boil was the perfect size for my husband & I. Not long of a wait for food at all. Will definitely be back again! read more

Soooooooo good! Friendly service! Phenomenal food! I ate the Poohbah and broccoli! I also had a cheesecake jar (OMG! So good). If you haven't been there, you are missing out! read more

First let me say the prices are exspensive so this is not a restaurant I would go to on a daily basis. The meals we ordered looked & tasted good. The young lady at the register was friendly. They were out of dessert cups and flavored lemonade on the days I went by. Not officially opened yet they are open to the public doing a soft opening. Hours of operation vary. Hoping they will add some grilled fish, baked chicken, turkey wing options and add more veggie options in addition to their fried items in order to be a little more health conscious. Restaurant seems to be designed for you to take your food and go as there are just a few tables. read more

Holy crabolli!!!! This place is awesome!!! I promise this is the best seafood meal of your life! It's a lil pricey for Jacksonville but it's still a great deal for the amount of seafood yumminess you get. The perfectly cooked seafood and rich flavors of their spices gives them the the honor of the official celebration meal. Today was my 15th wedding anniversary and the first thought of the day was "I'm gonna get myself a grand Poobah to share with my babe!" I already told hubs this is where we get food for every family celebration... birthday .. the spot.... promotion... the spot.... good report card... the spot.... bad day at work ... the spot! read more

I had an opportunity to eat from this food truck at a seafood festival. The seafood was amazing and so flavorful. I really enjoyed the crab legs, the thoroughly seasoned shrimps, potatoes, corn on the cob slices and sausage. The meal itself was plentiful and delicious. Definitely recommend and will eat again. read more

Got two lobster rolls and 2 crab clusters. If not for the decent/good but not great lobster rolls I would of have 1 star. The crab was Horrific.... One cluster just was not great and mediocre at best while the other cluster was almost inedible... read more

I found it to be too greasy for me. It was hard to get the crab meat out of the shell. The sausage were small. My husband ordered the oysters his plate was good. read more
