I’ve driven past this place soooo many times and always side-eyed it because seafood boils and jollof rice felt like an odd combo. I also wasn’t sure how fresh the seafood would be. But curiosity finally won, and baby, I was pleasantly surprised.

The seafood was fresh, the portions were generous, and everything was seasoned and cooked well. The shrimp may have been cooked just a tad too long since the shells were sticking, but overall? I tore that plate UP.

I ordered pickup and the staff was super friendly and quick. When I went in, the restaurant was empty, but I can already tell this would be a fun spot to sit down and try out the bar one night.

This was also my first time trying suya and whew… very flavorful. Big fan.

First visit, but definitely not my last.

First time visiting this restaurant with friends, and I admit that I was very well surprised by the menu offered. So the food was good, there is room for improvement and I understood the message of the owner. I also want to thank and praise the manager/ owner, who is a teacher, by the way, for hosting us and surprising my colleagues and myself with a cake . The move was unexpected but very well appreciated by everyone. The restaurant can be a little hard to find if you have never been there. It is good to add a few indications, like it is close to Ross and within Advanced Auto. We will be coming back for Happy hour this summer and more. Thanks

I visited Karen’s Seafood this May and I had an awesome experience! Karen herself served us and she was the sweetest and most attentive person. The food was incredible, the environment was welcoming, clean, and fun. They have a small bar in the back that is really nice for people who like to watch sports, drink beer, and eat delicious seafood. Not to mention that the prices are exceptional and quite affordable for the quality and quantity of food. Their sweet potato fries are to die for. They’re Asian-owned, so they will also have Chinese food. 10/10 would recommend!

This was my first time at this restaurant, and I went to celebrate my husband’s birthday. From the start, the experience was disappointing. I told the hostess it was his birthday, hoping for a warm welcome, but she just looked me up and down, said nothing, and started walking away. We assumed we were supposed to follow her. She seated us, handed us menus, then the drink menu fell on the floor, she made no attempt to pick it up, I did.

There were only two other tables occupied, yet we were completely ignored. The hostess was busy with one table, another server was handling the other, and neither acknowledged us again. After sitting for 25 minutes without even being asked for drinks or water, we decided to leave.

As we walked out, the male server was standing at the register. He didn’t say goodbye, didn’t ask if something was wrong, didn’t even look at us. For a restaurant experience—especially for a birthday celebration—this was incredibly disappointing. Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

Food is awful I’m not sure where the good reviews came from. Broiled oysters dirty gritty overcooked dry no sauce. Crab cake is all filler 2 pieces of crab meat sweet potato fries drowned in black pepper. No contact person No customer service No real website. Just awful. Don’t waste your time and money.

Absolutely amazing seafood and service! I’ve never been to a place where they put all the seafood into a bag with the sauce. This was a great experience and the Karen’s special sauce they make is delicious!

Karen’s is a great move. My table had the smoothies, which they said were great.

They were split on their orders. 2 ordered seafood bowls, one was very satisfied with the mild. One thought their’s needed more seasoning.

The Orange chicken and fried chicken wings were raved about and the catfish was seasoned well, fried right and the fries were a great match.

My only wish was more servers at the place, to expedite service. Karen and her husband work really hard but it would be a great place for an after-school job or retiree.

Warning: Dishonest business!!! On the 17 of Feb I ordered a seafood boil that consisted of 1/2 dozen king crab legs, one full pound of Dungeness crab and a half a pound of crawfish. I arranged to pick up my meal at 9:30 PM upon arrival I had to wait another 30 minutes before I could get my meal. When I arrived home, I realized that my order was incomplete. When I called the restaurant, the young man who answered the phone told me that it was only supposed to be 1/2 lb. This was incorrect as my receipt showed I paid for one pound. When I requested my money back he stated he could not give me my money back and I had to come into the restaurant for said refund. I’ve been trying to contact this restaurant to receive my refund for several days and all each time, I was given some excuse or they just didn’t answer the phone. I wish I would have other reviews before I chose this place

Terrible experience – would not recommend dining in.

I visited Karen’s Seafood yesterday because my friend and I were craving a seafood boil, but from the moment we walked in, the experience was disappointing. The bartender, Chris, was incredibly rude, arrogant, and disrespectful. Instead of greeting us, he called out my friend by saying, “Oh, you’re the girl whose card doesn’t work” — a completely false and inappropriate comment, especially considering it was our first time at the restaurant in months.

Chris paid far more attention to what appeared to be regulars than to us. We never received a simple hello or a “Would you like a drink?” — basic hospitality that any paying customer deserves. I had to flag him down just to get some attention, only to be met with a rude “I’m coming.” Even after that, he was dismissive, inattentive, and continued making slick comments throughout our visit.

The only person who treated us decently turned out not even to be an employee — just someone helping out!

What made matters worse was when it came time to pay. Chris gave me a bill with one total, but when I checked my receipt afterward, I saw my card had been charged a higher amount, with additional items I did not order. When I raised the issue, instead of apologizing, Chris had an attitude. They ended up getting a manager (or supervisor) to fix it, but my card had already been charged. The only thing they offered was $10 cash back, which wasn’t even the full difference. At that point, I was so aggravated, I just took it and left.

The food was not great either. The sausage in the seafood boil tasted questionable, the crab legs were overcooked, and the crawfish tasted old. I’m honestly just thankful I didn’t get sick.

Overall, the customer service was terrible, the food quality was poor, and the environment was uncomfortable. It’s no wonder the place was half-empty. I don’t know how they are still open. I had ordered takeout from here once before and it was passable, but after this experience, even that feels risky.

I will never return, and I highly advise others to think twice before spending their money here.

The service was great. The menu was exotic. I had so many choices to choose from between seafood and African food from Cameroon. I started off with the seafood It was really good and juicy, And the flavor was on point. i’m not used to African food, but I tried soya for the first time and I loved it and they have plenty more options that I wanna try next time!
