I had some of their cajun pasta and calamari, both were quite small serving sizes for their price. What put me off was adding shrimp to the pasta for 5.99 only to be given exactly five pieces of shrimp. The pasta had nothing cajun about it and served on a big plate to look bigger than it is, far too big for the small table! The pasta itself was nice, however it tasted like grocery store jar alfredo sauce. And the restaurant had far too loud music for so little people there, couldn't even talk properly to the server or family despite sitting so close on a tiny table. Would not recommend

Been many times. They always have stuff going on and it makes a fun environment…read more The food is always delicious. Huge portions (except the cornbread) and never any issues. Service is always good to us. Drinks are fun. The vibe, decor, food is great. I don't really care for their alligator but it's the same as everywhere else- it's chewy / fatty and the batter before looked good and tasted good but I saw someone review it came beer battered and I hope that's not the case. Beer battered is so gross. The only cons I have is how tight and crammed it is year round. It's really small and the bathrooms area smells like pee everytime I've ever gone. They have darts in the back. No pool tables. Summertime they have the patio outside usually I believe. There's a downstairs seating and bar area but it's small.

The staff were attentive and friendly throughout our meal. Overall, we would definitely return.

I attended a seafood boil cruise in St. Charles, hosted by Chef Che and also hired heard to cater a private event at my home. The food items at both were outstanding, but the service for both were a bit disappointing. As for the cruise, we pulled off later than scheduled and there was not enough food and daiquiris to go around. Additional food was being prepared at the dock and ultimately those who were missed and wanting more were taken care of. For my home gathering, Chef Che arrived more than an hour late. Chef did offer a discount for her tardiness but in looking at the final bill, it was higher than the original! Lol. Ultimately, she took off about 10%, which is less than hoped but better than nothing. That said, I would use her again but with better understanding and preparation of the time concerns. Would suggested requesting food 2.5 - 4 hours in advance of your private event. It was rather embarrassing to have 75% of my guest there ahead of the caterer.

And so I got to taste one from my wife's order. But I wasn't mad at all, because I ordered the Big Wally walleye sandwich and it was delicious. However my daughter ordered the shrimp quesadilla and it stacked up as my favorite quesadilla of all time, anywhere. I only wish I could eat more shrimp. The place is tiny and kind of dark, but they weren't busy when we stopped in. It has a very nautical theme with an aquarium in the corner. It's funny to tell your kid their meal was grown in that tank. Took a little while to get the food but it was worth the wait. The kids ate well and the in-laws approved. Next time we are in the area we will stop in.

My husband and I were looking for live Maine lobster and came across this place. My husband had…read moresent them a message asking if they had any, and they quickly responded that they did, and with all the necessary info we'd need. We called one day ahead to reserve our order, then day of we headed there for pickup. It's in a nice little strip mall area with plenty of parking. When we first walked in, I noticed it smelled a little like seafood, but like FRESH seafood. Some seafood shops can have a really strong fish smell but this smelled more like the sea than fishy. One thing to note is that it does not appear that they serve hot cooked-to-order food anymore. They no longer had that small kitchen/grill area out front. But they did have a ton of really awesome products! The owner was extremely helpful and grabbed our order from the back, showed us the lobsters, and then packed it up really nicely for us for the drive home, and to keep in the fridge for a few hours until dinner time. We also saw they had live mussels so we grabbed a bag of those too. I also picked up a Better Than Bullion in lobster base, I had never seen that in stores before! We also grabbed some hush puppies from their frozen section. The owner was super excited for us, for our first time cooking fresh lobster, hyped it up and him and the other lady employee were giving us some cooking tips! Everything turned out amazing,, the lobsters were delicious and every mussel was perfectly fresh. Just overall great place and great people! We'll be back, I'm looking forward to grabbing some of their fresh fish next!

Wife had the chili with burnt ends and was appreciative of how much meat there was. She did say the chili wasn't as hot (temperature) as she would have liked but she was taking most of it home and would get it as hot as needed.
