The menu offers a variety of seafood boil combos to choose from, all smothered in their signature Cajun sauce and garlic butter. I ordered the Special #3, which came with snow crab, shrimp, potatoes, corn, and an egg. I'd recommend getting the sauce on the side so you can control how much you use and avoid it becoming too salty. The seafood boil itself was perfectly seasoned, so the sauces felt more like a flavorful bonus.

I loved the way this place was decorated, the inside looked super nice and had a really good vibe…read more Definitely a 10/10 on the atmosphere and setup. But the customer service honestly threw me off a little. It was my first time there trying something new, so of course I had a few questions, but the cashier acted like I was bothering her just for being curious. That kinda killed the experience for me. Now the food itself actually looked pretty good, so I can't fully judge the menu yet. The only thing I ended up ordering was one of their sauces, and honestly... it just wasn't it for me. The taste felt off and I wasn't really feeling it. I probably would've stayed and tried the actual food, but with the attitude and overall customer service, I just didn't even feel like sitting down and eating anymore. Hopefully it was just an off day, because the place definitely has potential.

We actually rescheduled it earlier, but it did take a hour for our first course, but be fair to restaurant was absolutely packed! Because of that, the entire restaurant was loud, but the other three families in the room were even louder, to the point you couldn't hear yourself think or even talk; you be the judge on that! What made up for it was the food and service. Our server was very polite, and everyone loved the southwest egg rolls along with the blooming onion, chips & salsa/cheese! The portion size was good, everyone had leftovers. Everyone also enjoyed their meals. I had the beef tips with a baked potato, the steak was delicious and tender, and the potato was well seasoned as well!

There were only a few people there, the restaurant was spotless, and this restaurant can definitely be a spot for birthdays, dates, or a nice lunch. We both ordered their blackened chicken Alfredo pasta for lunch. We asked for extra blackened and it came out perfectly. The portions are large and the food was delicious. I changed my pasta type to angel hair and my mom kept the original penne pasta it comes with. They also give complimentary chips and salsa to guests. The service was amazing. We had a lovely server who came around to our table multiple times checking to see if we needed anything. Everything was really great .

We started out with an order of loaded fries and teas. Fries came quick and was plenty for two males who aren't afraid to eat. We didn't finish them. Loaded with cheese, bacon bits, ranch, HT special sauce and bacon bits. The tea was fresh made and was delicious. I had a burger/melt which had a 1/4 patty, grilled shrimp, grilled onions, sauce and cheese. It was big and piping hot when brought to the table with a side of cole slaw. Buddy had the crab patty burger. It was decent size with grilled veggies on the side. All food was phenomenal. He had been there before for drinks and remarked the atmosphere in the evenings is lively and the drinks at the bar are really good.

The ambience is amazing and our waitress was also very informal and patient with us we knew we wanted to try the crawfish because we heard so many good things about it but at the same time we weren't sure because we're very picky about crawfish anyways I give the crawfish a 10 out of 10. I will definitely be back very soon! They were seasoned to perfect perfection, juicy big and not hard at all. For my drink, I tried the frozen rum punch and it was also a 10 out of 10 it was very fruity, but not overpowering. Definitely hit the spot with my boiled crawfish.

We ordered the 50-50 catfish and shrimp combo and the c'est la vie potato. With our tea and lemonade, the total came to $47.64. Unfortunately, the meal definitely did not meet our expectations. The fish and shrimp were small, the potato was small and undercooked in the middle and hard to chew. Only saw two small bites of crabmeat in the sauce. Well, the food itself had an acceptable flavor, it just was not enough to be satisfying. We left hungry and ended up stopping somewhere else to eat. I will say the waitress was nice. This was my first visit and my last.

Usually a good experience, never had a problem until now. Went in tonight on a not busy night…read morehoping to enjoy our usual. Tried to order The Avenger for 149.99 and substitute the mussels for shrimp but the server said it didn't come with mussels as I'm looking at the menu in my hand. So I asked for shrimp instead of the crawfish, she argues with me asking if I wanted the crawfish subbed for mussels. No ma'am I would like the crawfish subbed for shrimp. To which Kaliyah just stood there staring at me like I had 2 heads. Me not understanding asked again and she said okay I'll get that for. Our food gets to the table and there's a pretty large amount of crawfish so we asked and she said she subbed the mussels for crawfish. Me dumbfounded say that I asked for the mussels to be subbed for shrimp and you said it didn't come with mussels. She tried to compromise by saying she would take the extra crawfish off and put the shrimp on her tab. I said that would work and thanked her, she comes back to ask if we're ready for the tab, I ask for the shrimp and she said she never put it in so I asked for it to go. She comes back in 10-15 minutes with shrimp not Togo and said she put it on our tab for $21 and took the crawfish off. I asked for her to take it back because I'm done by this point. She comes back with the tab and it still has the extra crawfish on it, I'm so done by this point that we just pay for it. Extremely disappointed usually it's good and the servers are nice but I guess not this time.

I returned the food & asked to speak with a manage, but conveniently there wasn't a manger on site so I left my contact info. The manager (Nory) called a few hours later not to address my concern, but to insult my intelligence & palate by delivering a dissertation on how fish naturally smells and the oils it produces. And I quote, "you are the only customer who complained TODAY." The fish did not taste or smell fishy, it was SPOILED! What they failed to understand is that it only takes one customer to tell you your food is inedible for it to warrant attention. I wasn't looking for a lecture; I simply wanted a sincere apology and reassurance that my concern was being taken seriously. Instead, I was met with defensiveness and condescension. 0/10 I do NOT recommend!
