There was more than enough food for two people to share with being overstuffed. Food was tasty. Seasoning had a nice balance of flavor without being salty like other boil restaurants in the Syracuse area. A little messy but that's to be expected when eating this type of food. They supply gloves, bibs and bucket for shells. Restaurant was clean with a nice atmosphere. Server was friendly and helpful with it being our first time there. Food was a little pricy but we would return and recommend to others. One potential negative is they don't serve alcohol but if you're not a drinker then was won't be an issue.

Easy online ordering, I believe the discount was for online order and $1 convenience fee. Order was ready when I arrived only 20 minute wait upon order. Prices comparable to other local boils I've had locally, this combo includes thinly sliced sausage and one hard boiled egg as well so that was a little something extra! I usually order extra corn and potatoes to make shareable which would be an additional $6.50 for three corn and potatoes. I thought I would see the standard for first order. I would add next order. Loved the house special sauce that combines all the flavors, extra hot for me definitely had a kick! I'll try the super hot next time, it packed some heat but I could do spicier. All the seafood was good the crab legs just a bit rubbery, corn, potatoes, sausage all delish swimming in their speciality sauce! I add my own extras on many occasions. Friendly service with no wait and easy parking. Definitely will add to my spots for seafood boils! Looks like more of a pick up destination put plenty of tables for dining in with a casual at the sea side ambiance and picture wall.

First time trying this place out. Made it takeout choosing a variety of seafood options…read more The seafood medley included crab, scallops, shrimp, and clams. All steamed. They were also all seasoned with Old Bay seasoning. If you like Old Bay seasoning, you will like the way these are prepared. If not, you might not. As it happens, I like Old Bay seasoning. I'm sure you can order it without the seasoning. Scallops were fantastic (so I am told because I am not a scallop fan), the shrimp was big and prepared right. The crab legs were spot on, and the clams were OK. They were dry, not a lot of flavor, but three out of four isn't bad. The medley also included fantastic steamed, broccoli, potato wedges, and corn on the cob. Keep in mind, all of these were seasoned with Old Bay. A solid choice for Syracuse seafood.

We've wanted to try this place for years, but it's never occurred to us during a Friday or…read moreSaturday, which are the only days they're open. Last Friday was one of those days we knew we needed to order out, but we were well on track to make a whole evening out of fretting over where to go. I don't know what it is, but sometimes absolutely nothing in the world sounds good. By some act of god, I remembered this place and our evening was saved. Their menu changes weekly, so we referred to their Facebook page for this week's options. I've only heard great things about them, so I had no question whatever we ordered would be good. No prices on their website, and money was definitely an issue on the eve of the St. Patrick's Day Parade, so we made kind of a flow chart in case pricing got crazy. Placing the order over the phone was difficult. They couldn't understand us, and they had to run every question by somebody else and get back to us. We ordered the jerk chicken and smothered pork combos, then threw in a pint of shrimp fried rice. I wish I could have tried everything; it was really tough coming to a decision. Cash only. I read so many reviews and everything they had online and didn't see this mentioned. Luckily I had just hit the ATM for the parade. The place is pretty small, take-out only. Easy parking, easy in and out. Everyone's super friendly. A lot of the appeal is how clearly they take pride in what they do. All around it just seems incredibly authentic and like nobody's cutting corners. So the food was great all around. We'd eaten garbage all week and were really going for that fresh, wholesome feeling, and they delivered in every way. The only hiccup was that they gave us Smothered Chicken (I think) instead of Smothered Pork. They labeled the box SP, but put the wrong thing in it. I was disappointed to see it because the pork was the first thing I knew for sure I wanted to get. Six seconds into the meal though, I truly didn't even care anymore. It was absolutely amazing. So tender it came right off the bone. It has to be the best I've ever felt about a chicken thigh entrée. I've only tried Jerk Chicken a few times, and mostly from a few Jamaican restaurants right here in town. I never really understood the point of it, like the taste just never amounted to anything I cared about. One bite of this one and it all made sense. Like, I now understand what they're going for with the flavor. Same perfectly tender chicken, and we absolutely loved the taste of both. We were curious about how the Shrimp Fried Rice would shake out with soul food, and it's definitely unique from Chinese takeout. Nowhere near as greasy, and it had a more savory, mildly smoky taste to it. No conflict with the beds of rice our entrées came on either. This wasn't our favorite fried rice, but it was good to have with our meals. My favorite side was the baked beans. Perfect texture, amazing taste. So soft and yet, so completely distinct. Didn't even know I could enjoy plain no-frills baked beans this much. The collard greens and yams were about average. I think for yams I'm used to a lot more butter and sugar than these ones had. Collard greens were just straightforward as well, no taste outside the greens themselves. Texture couldn't have been better though. Mac and cheese was good, but well past al dente. Super soft and didn't really pack enough flavor to make it top tier. The cornbread is standard issue - really soft and pretty dry with just the regular cornbread taste. I'd love to try some of the other things on the menu, but probably wouldn't for the price. There's nothing here I wouldn't be absolutely excited to have, but the experience wasn't profound enough to pull us back for $25 a plate.

I ordered the garlic rice and wings (bourbon sauce), mac and cheese, and fried green tomatoes. I was excited because I had read good things on this very site. However, I was a bit disappointed. The star of the meal was the garlic rice which was admittedly delicious- would certainly get this again. The wings were also okay. I would go with a different sauce next time, and for anyone wondering they are breaded wings. The mac and cheese was not good. Incredibly bland and not warm. Would not recommend. The fried green tomatoes weren't very crispy by the time I got them home and ate them, which is surprising because they ripped vent holes in the styrofoam container to combat this. Not inedible, just not very good. Overall was pretty disappointed with my experience, definitely willing to go back though, so hopefully it changes!

Very fresh.
