Food (4/5): The garlic and lemon flavor really comes through on their plates. I got their crab and shrimp plate which comes with 2 corn, sausage, and rice. It is super seasoned, the crab legs are easy to break, and it had juicy shrimp. The only thing that took a point away was their sausages, it was super salty, but I would definitely go back for more! Price (4/5): Pretty expensive lemonade, their large was $6. I didn't get the large drink, but with my small drink and crab and shrimp plate, I paid ~ $37. Pretty expensive but this plate alone will be enough for 2 people or to take home for later and the quality is worth it! Service (3/5): Suuupper slow, we came in with 5 parties ahead of us. It took them 30 minutes to get through the parties to take the order and another 30 minutes to cook the food. I suggest coming around 3-3:30 which is when we arrived. Ambiance (3/5): Currently, there are 4 tables outside but only 2 of them have an umbrella.

I have followed this establishment on IG for a long time. I finally went a month ago and was soooo disappointed. The seafood boil I got didn't have good flavor and the bag seemed to be full of oil instead of flavor. I'd say the shrimp was the best flavored of everything that was in the bag. The potato's didn't have ANY flavor and were hard. I always imagined that the egg in these boils were peeled so that the eggs start to absorb the flavor.. but I had to peel them.. again, wasn't impressed. They also failed to put my corn in the bag which is one of my favorites. I should have canceled my order when I saw the people in the back preparing my order without masks during a pandemic but I gave it the benefit of the doubt and was disappointed.

Nasty, Overcooked Steak with more mushy Minute rice

What in the bloody hell are you trying to do us!? We ordered $100 worth of food and instead got lies, deceit and false advertisement. I've been eyeballing this place on Instagram, even pulled up one time but the line was extreme so we said next time. They finally have everything set up so we could place an online order instead of walk ins. Decided to do it that way to save us some time since we stay in Inglewood and this place is in Carson. All 3 of us had build your own, shrimp, crab, lobster, steak and all the sides corn, potatoes, sausage and rice. It took about 25 minutes before the food was ready, by the time we arrived we waited another 5 mins and when we went inside she was just wrapping it up. Customer service wasn't as bad as a lot of the other reviews experience. We get where we're going, the thing about seafood it gets cold really quickly, so I can't even fault the blame on them, just reheat it in the oven for a few minutes. I wouldn't order delivery from here just based off how they send the food, I can't see it ever making it to you hot. Cons: I'm trying to remember when's the last time I had steak this bad? I can't recall but the steak was beyond well done and I don't even like my meat well done I prefer medium, unless I can choose meat temp, never again. I couldn't even chew it, a lot of pieces had to much fat or gristle, I was constantly spitting it up into a napkin and just gave up. Good cuts of Steaks have fat marbleization, which make them rich, and juicy and if they cook it right it should be tender and soft with the right amount of firm on the exterior. The Snow Crab, I purposely put some gloves on and cracked all the shells and took the meat out so I could eat a lot of it at once instead of sucking on the shells one by one. I noticed most of them I broke open, barely had any meat inside sometimes none at all. If I didn't I would've been over here sucking on air. I weighed them out they came to 6 Oz, we can't even get 1/2 a lb of crab just 8 Oz bruv, come on. The corn, I saw someone say "you guys don't taste the same anymore", "you served me old food" and that was a few hours before I had my food. This being my first time I have nothing to compare them too but I don't think the food was old it was just NASTY. The corn was Frozen not fresh, I've never had good frozen corn. That's really a personal preference. The Rice, was super mushy definitely Minute rice. I'm a rice fanatic so anything less than fresh rice is an abomination. There's no reason you guys can't make real rice, it doesn't take long at all, get a bigger pot or rice cooker. The only other thing I can think of is you guys are cheap asf, and real rice is expensive OR you just can't cook rice and should stick to fries. We ended up making our own rice. The Sausage, I didn't see how this was made but the texture tasted like it was boiled, the only time I'm going for that is if it's gumbo, other certain dishes. All it did was remind me of Bologna sandwiches I ate growing up, definitely wasn't a good reminder. Finally the SALT, the Got Damn SALT! Whoever was cooking on Sunday FIRE them! They can not COOK! I know you guys want to keep it in the family, but you guys aren't cooking from home anymore and need some licensed professionals in the back of house!!! I didn't eat 1/2 my food and the portion I was eating on went straight into the TRASH! There was no flavor, no garlic, butter, Cajun, old bay etc it didn't taste like anything but the bottom of the SEA! The sauce was disgusting to and wasn't properly emulsified so it had this separation and curdled texture. Pros: The shrimp they gave me 12, they were all big and deveined but still salty ASF like a licked a mans nuts straight from the gym. Also the potatoes, surprisingly were crispy instead of soggy, nice size and were the only things not salty. The lobster was good but it didn't come on a tail like in photos they put it on a stick which was odd, meaning they may not even have real fresh lobster tails at the moment. Man look, I use to work at Red Lobster even they aren't all that but as far as seafood goes this was a poor experience, and some of the worst seafood I've ever had in my life. If you want high blood pressure and constipation this is the place for you. Out of ALL these black owned Insta Businesses, Billionaire Burger Boyz and Grilled Fraiche have been the best so far. I will NOT be returning, high prices but low quality food.

Got two plates and two cakes today and my receipt total is $67.45 and the on my bank statement it says total is $80.94....I'm guessing they gave themselves a tip? That's pretty unethical on their behalf. Only reason they get 2 stars is because the food is halfway decent. Probably won't be receiving my business again due to their unethical actions.

The drive from Carson back to Rancho Cucamonga was a good one especially after my 1st bite. Mostly everything was pretty consistent and flavorful. I ordered 5 plates(yup I did because I can. Brought a little back to share with the neighbors lol)... 1) 2 Shrimp and chicken 2) 2 Lobster and shrimp 3) 1 Crab and shrimp Definitely my favorite A mouth full of flavor I was also pleased with the service however I can see the frustration in people's face when I picked up my order. The lady had to stop taking orders to get the ready orders out to everyone. (The only thing that was "meh" was the corn. Of the 5 plates 2 pcs were hard undercooked) Overall it was worth the drive.

First thing I saw when I walked in was a lady checking her bank account and I immediately thought it was a sign that this place was expensive.. I quickly learned that this place's prices were fair and the reason she was checking her bank account was cause her whole family knew she was getting food here so everyone wanted some too! I got the $25 (plus tax) happy hour meal which included a generous amount of rice,potatoes,sausage,crab legs, & shrimp. It was well worth it. The flavor of the lemon butter and paprika/parsley seasonings all complimented the plate well! The shrimp was grilled close to godliness and the tail was easy to remove with the one bite & tug method. I highly recommend this restaurant. A truly hidden gem in Carson

Let me tell you something... this place is unmatched! Real Cajun food by real black people, MADE to order! I don't mind the wait because I love freshly cooked food, certainly my seafood! Here's the trick I always order ahead on their website! I live in San Bernardino, before I leave my house certainly on the weekends, I place my order from the comfort of my home or vehicle. They don't have a printed menu anyway, they're going to tell you to scan the QR code... might as well do it before you get there. By the time i get there, I've already gotten an email saying my order is ready. the food is made fresh and they are popular, you gotta bring your patience. I'm not the BIGGEST fan of the music but others aren't the biggest fan of mine The food is great!! And a full plate of it for the pretty good price.

Okay, I'm from the Bay & somehow came across this spot via instagram. My fam live out here, never heard of the spot so we was hyped to try it. My sister and I went here yesterday around 6:10pm. The girl with the 2 french braids and half a set of cute nails done helped us. She was friendly and her customer service was good, so A+ for her. She said the food would be done in 20 mins, it took about 10...cool! Opened the container, food looked like it was smacking for real. Lifted up my crab took a big scoop of the rice and sausage The rice tasted like Uncle Ben's boxed rice but it was like stale old rice. I then saw these little brown things about the size of the sausage, picked it up with my finger and said to my sister "I'm not sure what these are" she said "maybe a potato" I then took a bite and it was an over cooked rubbery potato! I cracked open a crab leg, one didn't have any meat inside. Cracked open another one, that one had meat and no flavor besides that damn white sauce Tasted the corn, which had the white sauce on there but no flavor, besides the white sauce taste. Lifted the crab up, stirred the food some got ready to take another bite and there was a short/medium length dark orangey/ brown (in the light) piece of hair that I pulled. When I pulled the hair it came from like where the corn was to the front of my food container, And that was it for me! About 45 mins later my stomach was rumbling & turning! About 30 mins after that I was blowing my sister bathroom up, pooping like I had the runs or something with horrible stomach pain. I was expecting the food to really be fire & taste like seafood. All you could taste was that white sauce, it overpowered the meal & there was a bit of spice, maybe creole seasoning. Like boy throw some bay seasoning on that shit & some salt on the corn with a little bay seasoning sprinkled on top of that. Cook & store your rice properly whether its boxed or fresh, don't serve nobody no over cooked potatoes & I don't know if those cooks in the back wear hair nets, but if they don't you definitely need to have them wearing nets. I for surely wasn't expecting to find the damn hair in my food. I mean I wasn't going to finish the meal anyway because my stomach was starting to hurt but the hair definitely sealed the deal. & if your credit card machines weren't oh so conveniently out of order, I definitely would dispute the $64 I paid for me and my sister's meal here it is the next morning (Sunday) @ 8:23 am and my stomach still fuxxed up

Salmon and Shrimp Plate, with a Sugar Cane Junkie drink.

Gabe R.

I have been wanting to try 3Stakxs for the past 3 years, it's been a grind to want to get some grub from this joint! Finally got the chance to this year, and let me tell y'all it was worth it. I got the salmon and shrimp plate, the salmon was tasty and the shrimp was great too. They don't skimp you of the shrimp, they put enough. The seasoning was on point as well! Definitely will be back. Plus they had Sugar Cane Junkies there from San Bernardino, don't sleep on the Sugar Cane Junkie drinks! They are definitely worth it! Supporting all Black Businesses.

Chandi W.

Hands down, these folks work hard and the DELIVER every time!!! It's not easy running a quality food business and to keep EVERY customer satisfied.... HOWEVER, judging by their extensive Lin for food and following on social media, THEY ARE DOING AMAZING! Thank you for my shrimp and salmon plate!!! It was delicious and just as I expected! We support you and will continue to do so!! Keep up the good work ! We you!!

Am I seeing this right? 3 stars?! I'm not entirely sure what's going on here, but if any place in L.A needs a 5(+)star rating, it's 3stakxs Kitchen. I'm not even lying. Go look at all my other reviews. I'm a foodie foodie, and this is hands down the best seafood in Los Angeles. Pay no attention the the ignorance of reviews past and get you a** over to Carson not now but right now and get you some garlic butter drip in your life. Thank me later read more

I absolutely love supporting a black owned businesses! However if I keep calling until someone answering just to find out if they have Hennessy wings on the menu as shown on the restaurant's Instagram, and I actually speak to someone to confirm that they do and that person says yes, gives prices and all that Jazz, it pisses me off!!! I should have known something was wrong when they said on the phone." It comes with fries" on Ig it said it came with garlic noodles? Long story short my husband drove all the way there just to be told that they never made any in the first place! The worker actually went to talk to the owner personally to confirm!

Most Definitely A Must Try If You Love Good Food And Have a Huge Appetite. Saw This On Tick Tock And Fell In Love With How The Food Looked So Had To Travel From Reedley Area To Carson (3 + Hour Drive) And See And Taste For My Self. Let Me Tell You This Was Well Beyond Worth The Drive For This Place. Highly Recommend This Spot And Will Return. Thank You For The Awesome Food. Get There Early As I Hear They Sell Out And The Line Does Grow As The Doors Open And When Placing A Order There is A Slight 20+ min Wait But Be Patient As We All Know You Can't Expect Great Food To Be Cooked In 5 Min...Trust Me The Food Is Well Worth The Wait.

So, me and a friend drove all the way down from the Santa Clarita area to get this food and to support this business. I've first went to this business maybe about 3 years ago when it was off of Crenshaw Blvd and Rosecrans Ave in a little shopping center. I tell you the food was amazingly delicious! I even met the chef and owner. I got home and tasted that food and it was the best ever! About a year ago, I visited this place and again, it was delicious with real flavor. I returned to this place again on the day before Valentine's Day is it was HORRIBLE! I guess the business got really big and popular and the owner started cutting corners and have other people cooking for him and now it's hot "chit" in a White box! The shrimp were way salty and over cooked. The crab did have a crack to it but there was no meat inside of it. The sausages tasted like hot dogs. It didn't even taste like real meat. The potatoes were soft and soggy. They were definitely old and not fresh. Almost had the consistency of wet napkins. They must have changed the rice because the rice I received was disgusting! The rice used to be Cajun style, now it's just cheap fake dry white rice. The corn on the cob was old and overcooked. I ate some of the tasteless crab but I wound up throwing the entire meal into the trash. I just couldn't do it anymore. Message to the owner, after reading these reviews combined with my experience, it sounds as if you've gotten over your head with customers and popularity to the point of the food not being good anymore. Go back to giving a damn about your brand and stop the corner cutting, it shows through your food. I don't plan on returning here ever again. I'm very sorry to leave this message because you were a very nice young man when I met you back on Rosecrans and Crenshaw. Hope you get it together. 1 read more

When I walked in the lady at the front desk was very nice, asked if it was my first time visiting and then explained how their menu works. The food is fresh because they prepare it when you order but even so, I didn't feel that the wait time was too long. I ordered the pick 2 plate (shrimp and crab) with a lobster tail a la carte. I can definitely say they prepare the most delicious lobster anywhere! It is very meaty and easy to eat. It slides easily out of the shell and has a lot of tender meat that tastes fresh like it was just swimming in the ocean. Totally worth the $20 price. The pick 2 special includes rice, corn, potatoes and sausage. It's so much food that I had lunch for 3 days! The crab had a lot of tender meat, and when I cracked it open, it slid out so easily. read more

UPDATE: They refuted my credit card claim! First off, I never got the food and I NEVER got a refund! They claimed they never got my order but yet have no problem taking my money and having the audacity to refute the claim. Please people be careful! Shady business practices. Read below of what they did to others: adding tip money to tabs without asking, extra charges and not providing refunds, and credit card system failure. When is enough enough? -- Like many people that found this place it was through social media, and in my case it was because of TikTok. I am all about supporting small businesses especially black owned businesses. During times like these, Restaurants are trying ways to succeed and I had that in mind when I wrote this. My experience was exceptionally bad that warranted this review to help them and others. I've ordered pickup at other small businesses too to compare, but this was bad, really bad. Because of COVID I do not travel unless for essentials, and I thought this place would be a great place for a celebratory dinner pickup. It was going to be a special treat since I was going to drive up from Irvine to Carson! After reading the reviews, I already had an expectation that customer service was lacking, but to what extent I would soon find out myself. I came here to pickup an order my husband had ordered online, it was the $145 double up pan. I came with my three month old and my 7 year old son in tow. Total travel time: 4 hours including wait time. I never got my food, here's why: 1. COVID regulation fail- while most people were in masks, the line extended around the establishment with people in line not six feet apart and with more than twenty people in the restaurant. The restaurant is small. No one was mandating the line simply because they did not have enough staff. I do not recall a wipe down after every customer either. Please be careful. 2. There was no distinct pickup or order line. People were so upset they waited in the restaurant for their name to be called, with some waiting two hours!! The restaurant became more packed when more people would come in around the time they were supposed to pick up their order and they too would have to wait another hour after arriving at their pickup time! 3. Online system failed. My order went through but according to them it never went through. I showed them emails as well as the notification for pickup. They said they would check on it and an hour lapsed and nothing. Mind you I've been waiting already three hours with everyone. 4. Customer service fail. No apology. No refund. I never got my food. Never got a response so I drove back to Irvine. I would deal with a refund through the credit card company versus trying to get a response from them. And yes, I was charged even though they claimed it did not go through. The failure of the place was due to not having enough people in place and a system that worked. They underestimated their popularity but that would soon change when more people complain and reviews are in place. Tiktok's algorithm will fade and IG too. They need to get a better system in place if they want to truly succeed. While the food looked delicious, I don't know what it tasted like, but what I do know is that customer service is key to a successful business and with a failed execution they will never perform optimally. Also if you are waiting in line too long, I highly recommend going elsewhere. Not worth the drive, time and money. Save yourself. If you read other reviews from past customers they've all mentioned the same thing about the long wait.... and some of these were from 8 months ago. Yet they haven't done anything to try and fix this issue. Wouldn't you think they've had time to make these changes based off of people's complaints? While it is important to have patience for small businesses during these trying times, it is worth noting how long is too long and the need for better customer service. Customer service matters and especially so during these times. read more

This is the worst service. I ordered online with a 4:02 pick up time why is the order not ready till 4:50. I asked about my order and was told they ran out of steak and had to wait for it unthaw. Isn't that something you should say when I come in and offer do I want to wait or cancel my order. Oh, but since it's online no sure easy to cancel so your forced to wait for your $54 dollar order. And no offer to compensate other than a soda. Really.... Let me not forget to mention the twerk your ass music blasting. Customer service in our community is shameless. read more

Mannnnnn!. Saw this place on a friends Instagram story and had to try it!. My partner and I are from the Bay Area and made it a point to come to this place based off of pictures etc. and was let down hard!!! Super bummed about it bc the staff was so nice! The corn is either frozen, old or reheated. The rice also is either box rice or maybe just cheap rice? No flavor. The shrimp is not what I expected, I expected almost tiger shrimp or jumbo shrimp and it's smaller than the shrimp I use when I make ceviche and also possibly frozen or just not super fresh. Lobster was just ok. Small for $20. I know this is besides the point bc "why don't I just cook it myself then" but I can buy the same sized lobster on sale for $5. The flavor just wasn't there. They use the right seasoning it just doesnt match the quality of the seafood. We got the lobster, shrimp dish. Two orders and a large lemonade was $90 and some change. That's a good chunk of money for the quality served. I hope they can turn things around and listen to their customers bc this place has GREAT potential.

My husband wanted to try them, 1st the minute rice was nasty, my salmon was over cooked and dry af :/ the corn was gummy and over cooked, the sausage tasted funny and the potatoes tasted like they were frozen. The shrimp was ok and the sauce wasn't good at all, it got my stomach hurting I know I'm gonna be on toilet in the morning.

I had high hopes for this place after seeing it online but due to COVID they only had shrimp and salmon plate which was a bummer because I was really craving the crab legs. It also gave me a dirty vibe, like the cook was out side smoking a cigarette and the cashier had to look for him and call him to make my food which the wait for him to get in the kitchen was about 15-20 min but to get my food was about 5 min which was a bit suspect lol and then when I got my food the salmon was dry and it had a burnt Cajun taste to it. I couldn't even really taste the garlic which I'm a big fan of. Was just disappointed, especially since I paid 25$ or so for my dry salmon and mediocre shrimp read more

I really had high hopes and maybe that was my first mistake. I ordered several plates for my family. All of the plates were doused with the signature sauce which was overly salty. One of the plates we ordered was a double lobster plate, you can image my disappointment when I got home and there was an empty lobster tail. I definitely did not pay $60 for just lobster carcass. Needless to say, my family and I will not be returning. Wish this could've been a more positive review. read more

Being that I'm a long time supporter of this establishment, I can say I'm very disappointed in the food and the treatment I received today 6-30-2020. I went to get lunch for my MOTHER'S birthday only to be given a SKIMPY portion and told a particular dish came with rice only to be told they ran out of rice at 12:55 pm and the rice he offered was all of a sudden complimentary, when they just opened at 11am. The owner has a shitty attitude and especially towards a customer that just spent $78.59 on food and waited 1 hour for it. Unacceptable ... I'll NEVER support there again. The Mom and the staff are very nice, the owner not so much... The portions were small today and my mom said the salmon was dry, I'd have to agree. The "jumbo shrimp" were like popcorn shrimp and a few of them were scorched. Maybe that's why he drenched them in sauce. Did I mention they blocked me on IG and deleted my comment? Sad.. I hope Carson realize you're bringing them down read more

I am very disappointed with this place after much anticipation. I went two Friday's ago. It was crowded a sign the food is delicious so I asked what's the wait and they said 30 minutes. I was ok with that... I waited over an hour only to get home and find that $145 worth of food and all four orders were completely wrong! I ordered two salmon shrimp and two crab shrimp and steak. Got home and had all four shrimp and steak. That's a big difference in price not to mention nobody wanted steak! To spend that much and wait that long for your order to be wrong is truly unacceptable... read more

I came here because of all the social media hype. Not worth the hype at all. First off - I came in ready to place my order , as soon as I got ready I pay ( with Apple Pay) the cashier tells me they don't take that or any mobile payment, mind you in the window when you walk in there's stickers indicating that they take Samsung pay, Apple Pay, and google pay . I don't have my card on me so I go back to my car to order online , fine no problem small hiccup. Secondly- I place my order and get a confirmation email that says my food should be ready at 1:46 pm. I placed my order at 1:03pm. I go back inside at 1:45 pm to check in and pick up my order and it's not ready. Guys when I tell you I waited a total of almost TWO hours for this food . I had to inquire because they weren't freely saying " hey this is going to take longer than expected" so it's 2:35 when I ask , " hey um what's taking so long " and the girl in the back was really helpfully honestly but the cashier had an attitude and just and over all vibe that she didn't want to be here. So the girl in the back came up and said it will be another 5 minutes. So my food comes out at like 2:45 y'all! That's almost two hours from when I originally placed it !!! At this point I'm starving and I'm mad. I paid for three plates , one for my grandma, mom and myself , that came out to $85. $85! For almost a two hour wait ?!?! Third- when we get back home to eat , we starting Eaton and immediately realized that this food was over salted and season , now we're no strangers to seasonings guys but this was just over kill! It was extremely oily and wayyyy over salted. Forth- The garlic butter sauce they put on the food is way to much, most of the plates come with corn , rice , potatoes and chicken sausage. All of that was drowning in their garlic butter sauce, it was to the point were all of it just looked like some mush soup . Point is just because you know about old bay seasonings and lemon pepper , doesn't mean you should open a restaurant. This is the final and last instagram/social media hyped place I will ever eat at. Huge let down. read more

The food here is amazing! But the staff is typically very unprofessional and not well managed. It took me over an hour to get my food even though the cashier said it would take 30mins. I went in to check on my food at the 30 min mark and was told the food was being plated and to wait until they called me. Well.... 30 MORE MINUTES LATER, & I'm still waiting for my food.

I went to the newest location at 675 University, Carson (used to be PJ's Grill). Was there when it opened at 11 AM and placed my order. Because of the quarantine, they only take in person orders. No online or call in orders. Unfortunately, they don't seem ready to handle orders yet. Maybe it's because of the quarantine or the new location, but it took over an hour for me to get my order a d I was the second personin line. I wanted extra sauce but they were not selling extra sauce. So if you can overlook the long wait and no extra sauce, you will be happy. The food is delicious and you get amazing portions. I could not eat all of mine in one sitting. As you can see from my post I still gave them 5 stars in spite of the long wait. We just have to have a little patience in times like these. I will be back and pray for their success! read more

I had high expectations for this place regardless the 3 star rating. I usually don't eat 3 star restaurants on yelp but following their ig I have gave them the benefit of the doubt. Was I wrong. I paid $49.28 and I ordered 2 lobster rolls which barely had any lobster and were small and 2 soft crab burgers in which I only received one. The food was salty ass hell. All I tasted was salt. I drunk 3 water bottles right after my meal. I called and the lady said I can come back and get my soft shell crab burger but after tasting the first one I'm a just take the L. I don't want to even get what they owe me. Also it took close to a hour to prepare my meal. I went to get gas, pumped gas, put air in my tire, and I gave a stranger who walked to the gas station a ride to his car bc he ran out of gas, true story. When I arrived back, I'm very observant on the little things due to covid-19 and I noticed one of the helpers who was handling food was drinking some type of drink while walking back and forth from outside and to the kitchen, he handed some keys to a lady, went outside started a truck, to coming back in and I saw him chewing on food all while in the kitchen. I say all this bc I don't think he changed his gloves, I'm 99% sure he didn't and he was cooking or dealing with food with his mask not covering his face. Also you shouldn't be eating and drinking and touching things while in the kitchen. Take a break go outside do so and come back wash your hands and change your gloves. People do not take serious the changing of gloves. I would never go back. I hate to give this type of review but I was dissatisfied and disappointed. I didn't even like PJ's before they took over and I now don't like this establishment. All the L's I'm giving you. If you see this post today you can give my crab burger to one of the homeless guys that's in the parking lot. read more

Secondly the lady over charged us. Over $100 bucks for 2 plates! Smh BUY only gave us ONE plate and making us wait another 30 mins for the other. Total of 1 hour waiting for 2 plates!

Went down to try this place after seeing a them on a local t.v. show and following them on IG. The food looked delicious so took the drive down on a Saturday afternoon. Ordered online with no issues. I ordered the lobster, crab, & shrimp. It came with corn on the cob all on a bed of rice with slices of chicken sausage and potatoes in it. I also ordered a side of their special sauce. The lobster tail was fairly sized and not bad, but nothing special. The crab legs were medium sized and good quality and taste. Shrimp were nicely done, not overcooked and good flavor. The rice was really good, nice and fluffy. The corn was flavorless and seemed to be overcooked or re-warmed. The chicken sausage had a slight spice to it but not much flavor. The consistency was like one of those vegetarian sausages. The potatoes in the rice were nicely done. The most disappointing part was the sauce. It was so incredibly salty. So salty it was inedible. I feel if the sauce was better it may have salvaged the rest of the plate. Not worth the hype. I may return to try something different on the menu read more

This review is for the Paramount location. I got a few items: Dino rib, pork ribs, brisket, sausage, mac and cheese and corn bread. I'll start with the positives. The mac and cheese and corn bread were decent. Also they took 15 minutes to give me all the varied food I ordered which should have been my red flag to run, but I decided to live dangerously and was punished severely for it. Now on to the travesty, the meat. The theme for today was dry, old and shameless. The pork was somehow undercooked and dry. Which if you can endure the cruelty, is actually kind of impressive. The brisket resembled beef jerky. I'm including pictures of the brisket since those speak much more eloquently than I can. I love to cook and I infamously over season my dishes. But all these meats were at a whole another level. Not salty but aggressively peppery and just ham handed. The rub was flavorful but it blew out my palette instantly. Please take this to heart: less is more. In terms of meat quality? Cheap. My Dad is a butcher, I can tell. Everything being reheated did the meat quality no favors either. The seasoning was further exacerbated because the ribs, both dino and pork, were almost entirely bone. So you have a ton of seasoning on a lick of meat. It was a recipe for disaster. And price? Expensive, especially for what I received. Insulting for what I received. I'll end it here. I don't want to waste your time like this place wasted mine.

Cons: -Poor attention to details. The wife got a fork with a piece of food stuck to it, which means it wasn't washed properly. We also only got one knife between the two of us. We ended up sharing the knife rather than asking for a second one. -Once the food was served to us, the server did not come around to check up on us. -Maybe it was meant to be served this way, but the scrambled eggs were overcooked. Despite some flaws, I would still recommend this place. Not going to penalize a place for mistakes that most customers probably wouldn't even notice or experience themselves.

Everything was fresh and tasted amazing! Hot food was hot and cold food was cold. The meats were seasoned well and very tender. The macaroni & cheese was cheesy and tasted great. The greens were cooked with cabbage and smoked turkey, the beans had a slight sweetness and had some brisket pieces and the potato salad was made with red potatoes with the skin left on it. It was filled with onions, celery and bacon yummy! While there Chef Sharlamar Lane came over and introduced herself again and checked in to see how everything was tasting. We gave her our honest opinions and she appreciated us for coming in.

The brisket had a good mix of both point and flat. The point was juicy and rich, while the flat was a little leaner but still solid. Great smoke ring, great bark, and overall really good flavor. The in-house beef sausage was the surprise hit for me. Huge portion with two links, packed with flavor, and not overly spicy. They nailed it. Now the sides. The bacon potato salad was one of the best I've had. Chunky style just the way I like it, with good bacon flavor, not drowning in mayo, and I think there was a little green onion in there too. The coleslaw was unlike any I've had before in the best way possible. Mix of cabbage, bell pepper, red onion, carrot, and parsley with what tasted like a little rub seasoning mixed in. Not too tangy, not too sweet. I'll be ordering it every time. The atmosphere was clean, updated, and not overly smoky like some BBQ spots can get. Service was great despite some of the reviews I've seen online. You can tell they've got a loyal crowd of regulars and the staff actually knows them by name, which says a lot. This place is officially going into my BBQ rotation. Big menu, great specials, and everything tasted like people actually cared about making it right. Pro tip: if you're ordering a big meal or want fish, call ahead. All the frying is done fresh to order.
