Went for Valentines dinner and seeing a packed parking lot is a great sign. The food was great atmosphere was lovely and the staff was pleasant. The little robot that runs food orders out is super cute. Definitely worth it!

The wait staff was super friendly and helpful. Sauce on the boil was tasty and flavorful—medium wasn’t too spicy; just the right amount of spice. Made a mistake and ordered head on shrimp (not a fan because they aren’t deveined). Otherwise, very good food.

Good service and food. I ordered fried cajun dusted calamari and gumbo for appertizer. Main dish with combo 1 including crawfish, shrimp, corn on the cob 🌽, sausage and potatoes. I got butter garlic sauce. Food is good but I think It would be better if being cooked longer and absorbed the sauce.
Bourbon street punch is great. 🍹
Recommend this place. 👌

I took my husband there for his birthday and he LOVED his 4# seafood boil....explosion sauce was fantastic and enough food for 3 meals at the very least! Lobster roll was nice as well! We'll return for sure.

Amazing seafood! Not inexpensive. Expect to see "Market Price" a lot. Robot waiter is kinda a gimmick but I think it saves the waitresses's back. Great flavor and options as well. I will be stopping by whenever I need my seafood fix.

The food was great but the restaurant was very dirty menus were sticky and the table was too and the service couldve been better and for the price of the king crab they should include more sausage n potatoes

Great experience. I am often skeptical of seafood places, especially chains, but I should have tried this one sooner. Great quality seafood, great service, nice atmosphere. Will certainly go back another time.

WOW!!!!!! This place will make you feel like you are in a seafood place in New England!! Loved everything about it! The service was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and serving size... GENEROUS Great options of flavors for boils and if someone in your party isn't a seafood lover there are great options for them. Highly recommend! Run don't walk!
