Willie's definitely delivered where it mattered most: the crawfish. I started with 3 pounds and…read morebefore I knew it, ordered 2 more. That alone should tell you how good they were. The crawfish were flavorful, seasoned well, and priced right, which is honestly the perfect combination when you're sitting down ready to eat. They had that messy, not really spicy, addictive quality that keeps you reaching for "just one more" until the tray is empty. I also tried the buffalo wings. They weren't that great, if I'm being honest, but I was hungry so they got the job done. The crawfish are clearly the star of the show here anyway. The atmosphere felt relaxed and unpretentious, exactly the kind of place you want for seafood with friends, cold drinks, and a table full of shells piling up by the minute. If you're wondering whether I'll be back, I already have.

I recently went to dine. I Started off with appetizers of fried crab fingers, Orion rings and hush…read morepuppies. Both appetizers were not good crab fingers were fresh and unseasoned served with a cheese sauce that wasn't good either , hush puppies were small and hard. Nickel size not half a dollar size. I didn't order my entree after this experience. The service was horrible waitress wasn't there most of the time and had to be asked to return to our table. The restaurant was full due to the holiday, it was clean and it was comfortable with all parties there.

I went for the lunch buffet for $13.99 and feel like the BR location def has more options than the NOLA location (I haven't been to that spot in over a year though). There are some seafood options during lunch (salt and pepper crab, salmon, assortment of fish, and mussels) but if you want a wider variety, dinner is the way to go. I didn't try the sushi because the majority of them were always wiped out but the chefs in the back were doing their best to replenish whenever they could. Nothing to extraordinary with the sushi, I feel like you could get most of em at the grocery store. My favs at lunch were hands down the salmon and the baked mussels w cheese on top. The salmon was SEASONED SO WELL and I just kept going back for more. The mussels and cheese was def a hit too bc I could see the chefs restock every so often. There's unlimited boba (not included in the buffet) and I had the mango, which tasted watered down to me. The ice cream was amazing, got a mix of the taro and mango. The cakes were extremely dry and the mousse was the only thing saving it from totally crumbling in my mouth. For the most part, the food was piping hot, but there were a few options that were cold when I ate them, hence the 4 stars. The staff were incredibly sweet and would clean tables immediately after someone would leave.

We ordered togo & mix it with sushi for about $20 that's enough for us to enjoy. If you want your moneys worth.. I recommend dining in!

The ambiance was kinda loud and bustling which was to be expected honestly. We came on the weekend for their brunch and it was packed from front to back. They sat us within ten minutes of us arriving to the restaurant. We had an amazing server who took great care of our family while we celebrated our mom. I got their omelet with an amazing Belgium waffle and crispy breakfast potatoes on the side. Everything was cooked to perfection. I loved every single bite. We also got 4 of their mimosa and champagne deals where if you buy a bottle of champagne, you get four juices of your choice with it. We had an amazing experience and we will definitely keep this restaurant on our list of great brunch spots!

He only got me on this place about a year ago......and I never looked back. This Philly cheesesteak is what everyone else wishes theirs tasted like. It is the ABSOLUTE BEST! I'm not exaggerating, I have not found anything better! AND THEN, every single thing I've tried on the menu is DIVINE! I ordered the wrong thing last time I went. My husband orders two sandwiches when he goes.....no lie. And I tried to order just one of them one time when he wasn't with me. So I ordered and took a bite and it wasn't the one I thought it was....not their fault, I just ordered the other one my husband usually does. And the thing is, that first bite was so juicy and flavorful, I didn't even mind. You literally cannot go wrong with this restaurant. Close your eyes, point, and spin. Whatever menu item you land on, and order will be PHENOMENAL trust me. I think I got my dad hooked, now on to the rest of the family!!! We love this place and it's just as good as the BR location and the workers and Parker's here are SOOOOOOOOOO incredibly sweet. This is our happy place.

We got the appetizer sampler, and the biscuits on there......with the butter dipping sauce, delicious! We went with a friend and he ordered the club sandwich and it was very tasty. I got a Buffalo Chicken Salad (not pictured) and their buffalo sauce is AMAZING! I forgot to even take a picture! My hubby ordered the Blackened Chicken Sandwich, they messed up his order and added mayo when he asked for no mayo, and they took it back and fixed it. HOWEVER all the did was give him a new bun. There was still mayo on the bacon and on the chicken. Which really sucked because he's a sauce hater, he was able to eat the chicken because he wiped it off. He couldn't eat the bacon, so he gave it to me. The server was super nice about everything and apologized, but we saw the kitchen staff when she told them and they were a little unprofessional. You could tell it was a big deal, and they were very bothered to have to fix this. So we didn't love that, but overall it was a great experience!

The service has always been spot on which makes me return on a consistent basis. The food is always FRESH and made to order so don't worry about getting old cold food. The decor makes you feel as though you are on the island getaway without leaving home. The bar produces so of the most beautiful drinks and they taste great. My favorites are the lamb chops that are cooked to perfection and the beef oxtails. When it comes to appetizers honey pepper chicken bites and the beef patties always call my name. The chef and and his family are loving and very inviting as if they invited you to their home for a delicious meal. I will return and hope to work my way through trying the entire menu.

Every place had bad days and maybe I just caught them on a bad one but I was highly disappointed. While the better/server was polite, it took a very long time to be greeted and seated and to get food ordered and brought to the table. When it did, everything fried was super salty like a salt block salty. My rice barely had any salt or seasoning and my oxtails weren't very tender and the sauce tasted like out came out of a jar in the store. We were the only ones in there so I just don't know. One day I'll try again but it's gonna take me a minute. I felt like I got food catfished.

Before they changed names and menu names, the Ranchero with Bacon was the best thing you could get anywhere. It was fantastic. (Renamed as the Bacon Cheesy) The old pictures are gone now, but the Ranchero was a beautiful, smooth sphere, baked golden brown, with just the right amount of cheese and ranchero sauce. Now? Now it's a sad looking meat pie shaped thing, barely looks cooked through, no discernible cheese, no ranchero sauce, and a half-cold clump of pre-cooked bacon bits inside. Last time I ordered a breakfast taco, it was so greasy it dripped onto my shirt. And anything that greasy just isn't good anyway. The dough used for the regular kolaches is good (a bit sweet), but the smoked sausage kolache has a sad, thin piece of sausage in it. That original Ranchero was sooo good, I keep going back hoping for a comeback. I'm just torturing myself.
