    This entire experience was piss poor... and I hate to be so hard on a black owned business, but the truth must prevail! Ordered the lamb chop dinner with grilled broccoli and Mac and cheese. EVERYTHING was cold which is pretty insane to me having waited 30+ minutes for this food. The broccoli was mushy and overcooked. How can grilled broccoli be mushy? My conclusion either it isn't fresh broccoli being grilled and or it's being steamed or boiled because the texture made no sense whatsoever. The Mac and cheese was flavorless and while the lamb chops had decent seasoning (meaning salt and pepper) the proportions size was laughable ; however, let me reiterate the big disappointment is how everything was cold. The young lady with the glasses was not 100% pleasant. So for about $32 with tax it was not with it and was truly comical. Hated that the long awaited experience was so poor!

    I never trust a BBQ spot I dnt see smoke coming from. Luckily I pass this place often and I see that. I had tried them before, at catered events. Randomly decided to stop by and I see why there is always a packed parking lot. This location was tried by several businesses for years, leading one to believe it's the location of the business. However, they proved that myth wrong; simply when your product is good the people will come. I learned it is a family black business which makes it more special, especially in the area which is undergoing such drastic change. I ordered rib tips plate with came with 2 sides, I did Cole slaw and greens; all great. my only complaint was a whole plate I got a 2 small sauces. Well done bbq doesn't need a lot of sauce and I was able to enjoy it as it was made which was still delicious. Great job!

    It's my first time here, and I truly enjoyed my food. I ordered the ribs sandwich, smoked wings with fried broccoli, and macaroni. The meats were so juicy that it fell off the bone. The cashier was nice and I look forward to visiting next time I'm in the area.... I just realized I didn't snap a picture of my smoked wings plate. Smh. They also had a few seats on the inside in case you wanted to dine in.

    The best BBQ in this area hands down. You have to be patient with the ones taking your order sometimes but it's worth it.

    I just left LT's and, sheesh... what a letdown. Let me start by saying, I hate writing reviews like…read morethis, especially for small businesses. I really wanted to like this place. I was hoping to grab some crab legs for my grandmother's birthday celebration, but from the moment I walked through the door, I could tell it wasn't going to go how I hoped. There were barely any options in the display case. Maybe one or two fish, a random cluster, but nothing that made you feel like the store was stocked for folks to shop. And nothing in there was fresh. Everything was frozen. So, I inquired asking if there was more. The person behind the case told me that there was more in the back. I asked him about his crab legs, and was in complete shock when he stated the price. They were charging per cluster, not per pound. A small snow crab cluster? $11. A medium one? $27. That's insanity! At Whole Foods, I can get a whole pound of snow crab with 2-3 clusters for $15. They're charging customers more for less. That's easily over 80% more for maybe half the crab legs. And it sucks to even write this, because I really do try to support businesses in the West End. I want that place gouging is ridiculous. But somebody's gotta say something. I hope they rethink how they're price points and what kind of experience they want folks to have when they walk through the door. But as of today, I won't be back.

    I typically never buy crawfish from seafood markets in Atlanta, but on Fat Tuesday, I was feeling…read morehomesick for Louisiana and broke my rule. Unfortunately, I should have stuck to it. This was actually the second seafood market I went to that evening because I had to throw away food from the first place. The usual spots I frequent were packed and had ridiculously high prices, so I decided to try LT New Orleans Seafood Market by ordering on DoorDash. I ordered 3 lbs of crawfish, with one of those pounds including broccoli, sausage, corn, and potatoes. When I arrived, I noticed the restaurant was closer to West End Mall. The area didn't bother me, but the musty, old smell inside did. When they handed me my tray of crawfish, I was immediately skeptical. It did not look like 3 lbs, and as someone who has been eating crawfish since birth, I know what 3 lbs should look like. Already hungry and frustrated, I asked for it to be weighed. At first, I was speaking to the male owner, but then a female owner jumped in, immediately getting defensive. She started insisting they don't cheat people. That wasn't the point--I just wanted to confirm the weight. She told the man to remove the shrimp and vegetables, and I agreed. As he did, she kept saying crawfish shrinks when cooked, which made it clear they weigh before cooking. After weighing, the crawfish and juices totaled 2.64 lbs--not 3 lbs. They offered a refund, but I declined and took the food. The crawfish were decent, and I liked the broccoli, but at that point, I was over it. I ate just to avoid wasting money. I won't be back.

The 4 stars started with the order process at the drive up menu. I was interested in getting trout and asked the person taking the order if it was Georgia trout, a fairly simple question. The fact that the order taker did not know was not the issue, but it was the disdain in their voice, which hinted at no type of customer service. I continue to order the family pack as I was meeting friends for dinner and wanted to bring enough for everyone. The trout dinner as well as the other dinners came with two sides and I selected coleslaw and red beans and rice. Food portions were the next reason for the less stellar review. I'm not sure what family would be fed by the meager portions included in the family pack. Pictures do not lie! The family size sides were also underwhelming in size and flavor. Grease residue was the last factor in the one star review. It did not appear as though the grease had been drained from the fish adequately. Some grease is expected with fried food, but this was more than average. Sadly, this location used to have decent food. This is my second time in the last year, giving a means a chance to make amends. I have visited after church in the daytime, and most recently last week with both times resulting in disappointment. Was only aware of one other location on the south side, and after beginning this review, I noticed that there are other locations within the metro. May give it another try, but will not be anytime soon.

    I ordered from here about a year ago and had a pretty nice experience, so I decided to order again…read morethrough a delivery app. But this time was totally different. (I wish I still had the old pictures). It was edible, but the first time was WAY better. It was heavily HEAVILY seasoned to the point of being. My hands were stained red. The shrimp had a nice crunch. The potatoes didn't look great, but the flavor was good. The catfish was bland. One thing we really did not enjoy was the corn. The taste/texture was that of corn that was just sitting in the pot, boiling for hours until someone ordered it. Soggy. I was really excited about the side of fried crab legs and they weren't even in the bag. The attached receipt literally said to double check and still, missing. Additionally, my delivery person said that when she arrived at the restaurant, they said they "lost" the order and she had to wait another 20 minutes for it to be made. But the restaurant is ~5 mins from my apartment and the food arrived cold soooo?? Overall the food was just ok, but not something I'd rush come back for.

    I've ordered from Krab Kingz three or four times. I tend to order the same thing: The fish and…read moreshrimp platter. It consists of two catfish filets (or three strips of whiting), 10 pieces of shrimp, fries, and a portion of corn on the cob. Before taxes, it costs $26.11. Even though I don't live far from this restaurant, I've always had my food delivered through Uber Eats. I wasn't expecting much the first time I ordered from them, but I was pleasantly surprised. The quality has been consistent every time. The portions were large and seasoned and cooked to perfection. I'm getting hungry just writing about it. I usually can't eat the whole meal at once because it's so much food. I have no complaints at all with any of my orders, though I did have issues with the Uber Eats delivery person the last time. But that's not Krab Kingz fault. I'm rating them a five. Oh, Krab Kingz is not open on Mondays and Tuesdays. But Wednesday - Sunday, it opens at 11:30 am and stays open until either 9 or 10 pm.

    I wanted to give these folks a solid 3.5.....but let me just set the stage…read more This is my second time coming here and I will say my second experience years later was not the same as the first. So I would have given 5 stars the first time & then be coming here to lower/change that review if I had done it. Let's start with the customer experience with parking.....the parking attendant yelled at us a number of times "I don't know why yall getting out the car cause I'm not opening doors until 2:15 anyway"....confusion cause our reservation was 2:00pm. He ended up being right though as not only was he the parking attendant but then changed to the person who opened the doors. So pack your patience when it comes to parking and not being let in at your reservation time (even in the rain). Once we were checked in and seated our mimosas did come right out.....and they kept them flowing for the stated hour.....however after 10 or so, I was like it's just mostly orange/mango juice. If we hadn't pregamed before I wouldn't have felt any buzz. The food was all really GOOD although the same parking attendant guy had put on an apron so he seemed to be an owner of some sorts.....let us know from jump that its an event experience and not a restaurant so although the flavor and presentation of the food is good don't expect it to come out piping hot as they are serving it buffet style groups.....if you don't get something or want more you can ask. If you are okay with paying $85 (gratuity included) when tickets purchased to catch a vibe with DJ Che Mack.....then give these folks a try and let me know if your experience is better or about the same as mine. Main food for Sunday Brunch (Fried Chicken, salmon, turkey sausage, grits, greens, deviled eggs, potatoes) and bacon upon request (not pictured) food is served based on party size but you can request more. Prior to this we were given kale salad, a fruit tray, crab salad, crab cakes (crab balls) and sweet potato corn muffin bites, whole shrimp with shell. The kale salad was the show stopper 10/10. As stated all food was served lukewarm or cold.....which for some items this is fine. The amount of food given for price was worth it, just wish the temp was better on hot items.

They started with the crab salad, crab cakes, cornbread etc., Then the plated entrees came out family style. We were a party of 33 so we occupied the entire middle section of the restaurant. The food was really good and you can reorder any dish after everyone is served. They had from chicken to salmon, french toast to slamming grits. The choices were plentiful. The DJ knew what her assignment was and she was on the job. The music had everyone on the floor dancing, two stepping or just bouncing to the beat. The only downside was we had to leave after 2 hours. The music stopped and the next group of people were ready to come in.

I had called after placing the order to ask for additional condiments and the chef insured me it would be taken care of. My puppies were fried to my liking and I was grateful to have the ketchup for my fries. Most was good but, the slaw had been warped and heated upon delivery.
