This place is insane. My Asian friends, who have super high standards for seafood, had their faith in American cuisine restored. One of them said “This is the best oyster i had in North America”
We ordered fried soft shell crabs, bucket with shrimp, oyster & crab legs, and Gumbo. Everything was perfect. We will visit often.

It’s shocking how the quality has gone down. Ordered a large amount of crab and shrimp to feed 6 people and the amount of sauce in the bags, barely enough for 2 people. It used to be 5 star food and service but alas not anymore!

Been there couples time before and dine in there. BUT I ordered Togo yesterday, the shrimp are NOT FRESH, you can taste that. But before I dine in the shrimp quality is good. Won’t go back again, waste my money.

We went on a weekday and the two of us were seated right away in a booth. Our wonderful server was Ron and he did a great job advising us what to order.
I would say that this place would be better suited for larger groups. They did not have a seafood bucket with a variety of seafood like other restaurants. Each order for the seafood boil had a 1 lb minimum, except for shrimp where you can order ½ lb.
Since there were only two of us, we were limited on what we could order. We ordered 1 lb of Alaskan snow crab legs, 1 lb of clams, and ½lb of shrimp (with heads). All in the Sha Bang sauce, which was pretty tasty.
We were advised to order it in Mild. Glad we did because it did have a little heat and Medium might have been a bit too spicy. Food came out pretty quickly.
It was fun to dump everything on the table and eat with our hands. We were given bibs, gloves, lots of napkins, crackers, lemons, salt and pepper, melted butter, and hand wipes.
Not much of a selection for alcohol drinks and no wine.

Solid spot. We ordered the king crab and calamari—both hit the mark. The vibe was great, and Chris (our waiter) really made the experience smooth—shout out to him. Definitely coming back next time I’m in town.

The seafood here is plentiful and enjoyable, but something is just not quite top-notch. The shrimp were overcooked and still had “poop lines” down their back, which are challenging to remove with plastic gloves on. The mussels still had the “hair” in them. The potatoes and corn were excellent, as were the fried scallops.
They serve their food with lots of lemon wedges, but even that can’t seem to add enough brightness to the overly buttery sauces.
Service was good, and the atmosphere feels homey. Nothing is trying to be over-the-top (no fishing nets and oars all over the place, just a nice hardwood interior).

A wildly popular seafood boil experience where the messy fun is the main attraction. Order a mix of fresh crab, shrimp, and crawfish drenched in “The Whole Sha-Bang” sauce—a delicious blend of Cajun spices, lemon pepper, and garlic butter. Wear the bib, embrace the chaos, and prepare for long waits, as the experience is worth it for seafood lovers seeking bold flavors and a lively atmosphere.

My friend brought me here and we had a great experience. The food was amazing. The server Sean or Shaun (not sure how he spelled it) was awesome. Thank you for the service and the laughs. Here are some pictures I took to give our appreciation for a wonderful experience. Thumbs up!!! Memories are made, friends come & go, time is all you have just like all the names, dates and things written by people I saw all the way back to 2012 on the beams (I didn’t get a picture of those wish I had).

The service is top notch. The food was super tasty. The margaritas are great. Overall the whole experience was well worth the little bit we had to wait as walk in’s with no reservations. I highly recommend for sure. You won’t regret. Pay them a visit.
