    Serving breaded frozen shrimp out of the frozen food section is absurd. I don't think I've ever gone to a restaurant that specializes in seafood only to be served shrimp from a box that was already breaded. I can't get over that. The fish was okay. I went out of my way to try this place and I wasn't impressed. The service was good.

    I had been craving fried shrimp, but it's obvious they are known for their catfish. I ordered a catfish and 4 shrimp combo that came with fries. Catfish was great and fried hard. This is plenty to split between 2-3 people. The Shrimp was sort of slimy. Would not recommend. I was also there during happy hour and ordered the frozen margarita. It tasted off, despite its texture liijubgv. The bar was out of certain ingredients so I did not try to get another drink.

    The fish was delicious. The service was great as well. I'm glad they have a location more north to visit. I will be back soon to visit.

    4pc fillets. Comes with fries, peppers, pickles and 2-pc white bread.

    Great food awesome service and aesthetically pleasing. The price is reasonable considering the amount of food you receive.

It would definitely recommend this place for somebody who has never actually experienced good genuine oysters, two different kinds one from Canada and the other from I forget which coast but they were both phenomenal. Definitely going to come back and bring my mom and my family.

We were the only customers at this time which is not…read moreentirely surprising for a weekday but expected some more folks to be there by the time we left. Food was good, my expectations were really high and they were mostly met. The star of the meal was the crab cake, and my wife's swordfish special was very good. Some confusion with our server however... I asked for a side of scampi pasta (just wanted the scampi pasta) with my stuffed lobster instead of potato and corn. She initially said they couldn't do that, and then came back and said I could swap out the sides to pasta for a $12 upcharge. I said that was acceptable quickly since me and the wife were chatting but after she left I felt like swapping out a side shouldn't also result in a $12 upcharge just for pasta tossed in garlic if I am no longer getting the other sides. When the food came out she brought a half order of the shrimp scampi dish... not what I wanted but it was made so we didn't complain but this explains why the upcharge was so much... but I feel like if we were just adding a dish then I still should have had my included sides regardless. Unfortunately the shrimp scampi wasn't that great... stuffed lobster was okay but I have had better elsewhere. Overall a decent experience, but not sure if we would return.

Our waiter ( guy with braids) was extremely helpful, friendly, and informative. ) I wanted a kir royale ( they couldn't make because they didn't have chambord). However, he and manager came to the table to offer options. I tried a French 76. We ordered calamari which was light, crisp, and fresh. It was delicious and prepared perfectly. I ordered the stuffed flounder ( substituted red fish for flounder) with the Ponchatrain sauce ( shrimp and crabmeat in creamy sauce) which was delicious. I kept the potatoes with peppers ( prepared beautifully ) however, I will try another potato dish that I don't think will compete or overpower the fish. The fish was hot, flaky, light and delicious. They also serve a dish of garlicky, buttery dish of bread and hush puppies as an appetizer.Loved the bread dish. The service, food, ambience are well worth the drive. I can't wait to go back to try other dishes that they offer. We were too full to order dessert. Maybe I'll get one on my next visit.

The lobster tail was a bit tough and overcooked, which is a waste. Mussels were good too. Garlic noodles were not our favorite. Corn and potatoes are good, but they're a bit stingy about it only giving you one of each. When your seafood boil is $70+, you should get more than one of each. The flavors linger in your mouth for a bit. It lingered for almost 2 days for me, but would definitely return!

    Went to Capt Loui for lunch and had mixed feelings about the experience. The food itself was great…read more The crab was fresh, well-seasoned, and definitely the highlight of the visit. Unfortunately, the service was questionable. Our server had difficulty communicating in English, which led to a costly misunderstanding. When we ordered crab, she never asked what type of crab we wanted and instead assumed king crab, which is significantly more expensive than other options. As a result, our bill was much higher than expected. To make matters worse, a 20% gratuity was automatically added to the bill without it being mentioned to us beforehand. While restaurants may choose to add gratuity in certain situations, customers should be clearly informed so there are no surprises. My advice: enjoy the food, but be very specific when ordering. Confirm exactly what type of crab you're getting, verify the pricing, and check your bill carefully. Also remember that gratuity should be clearly communicated and not assumed. Better communication would have made this a much better overall experience.I'd rate it 2.5 out of 5 stars. Great food, but the service and communication issues took away from the experience.
