    We have been crazing seafood boil lately and ordered from here twice in the last few weeks…read more One of our fave seafood boils in queens. Been either dining in or ordering take out ever since they opened the Rego Park location. Service is always friendly and amazing either dine in or take out. Take out is super easy. Order on line and you can even accumulate points for a future discount. They also deliver for free and its pricing is better than the online ordering services. We ordered 1lb each of the shrimp with head, snow crab legs and craw fish. We love the oceanic sauce but also ordered on garlic butter with old baby cause the little one loves it. You can also pick the level of spiciness. Only drawback is, seems like there's less sauce and the sauce is very watery compared to before and my kids love dipping the seafood back in the sauce and coating their rice in the sauce. We love the mango pina colada with a kick and the virgin option is always a treat for the 21 and under. They even sent an extra drink today since they made an extra by accident. Thank you!!!

    I recently did a takeout order since I was craving a lobster roll. The order for pickup online…read moreexperience was smooth although you will need to pay in person. I was able to pickup relatively quickly without a long wait. The restaurant is dim and a bit loud but seemed like a good place for groups and couples. As for the lobster roll, it came with a small side of corn and a generous amount of cajun fries. The roll itself was decent with a respectable amount of lobster (more than Luke's for comparison) but I wish they went with a more traditional mayo dressing than the cajun dressing. But overall I would order it again.

    Business looked a bit slow for Saturday dinner. Servers were friendly and attentive. Overall the…read morefood and seafood quality were good. I tried the fried calamari appetizer, garlic noodles, garlic bread, Cap't Louis mild sauce with snow crab legs, shrimp, clams, scallops, sausage, and broccoli (steamed or boiled). Each bag already comes with a potato and corn. Scallops were fairly large. Snow crab legs were easy to eat and delicious. Clam shells were large, but not much meat inside. The seasoning was tasty and had a decent spice kick. The more pounds you order, the more sides you get. They have a list of market prices. They don't have alcohol, which seems like a missed opportunity. We would've loved to have a drink. It is nice to have a seafood boil option in that area. They give bibs, gloves, and a disposable dish. I wish the water was served in washable cups for less plastic waste. There is meter parking.

What was ordered: 3lb boiler combo, capt loui sauce, medium spicy, with 1 whole and 1 cluster Dungeness crab, crawfish, side of corn and side of garlic noodles Stand outs: The Dungeness crab body Would I come back/recommend: Yes - I would definitely come back Yes - I would definitely recommend

The staff was professional and efficient with all functionsof service. We were seat once everyone had arrived and were given menus. Everything was good until she asked if we had allergies..... pork. She flips my menu over and stated I could only order the fried foods. They cook everything together, sausage seafood etc, in her words, cross-contamination. I was crushed! Im so glad my friends were distracted. Lost on what to get, I asked for a recommendation and went with the wing basket, while the rest of the table did the 3lb boil with a calamari basket. The boils comes out very fast, fry baskets about 10min longer. The food was fresh, hot, but lightly seasoned (the wings). I requested ranch for the wings, they didnt have any. There was a spicy mayo to dip but it wasnt my cup of tea. As long as the birthday girl had fun, thats all that counts. Im grateful the server asked about allergies. Saved me a trip to the emergency room.

    Amazing food, vibe and service!…read more Since I knew we would be in the city Sunday and would probably want to brunch before the concert that night, I looked up a bunch of places and this one kept catching my eye. We almost wouldn't have been able to go because I waited until that day to make reservations and it seemed like they were all booked up. But luckily, my boyfriend had a great idea to call to see if anything was available. Although I was only communicating with an automated system/ai rep, it was able to find reservations for 1:45. We took it and it was worth the wait! This is a very cute spot in Tribeca. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted, checked in for our reservation and seated immediately. Walking up, there is a little outdoor covered seating section that is set on the street next to the sidewalk. Inside, there was a jazz trio performing to the right when you first walk in. As we headed and got to our seats, we saw that behind the bar/counter seating they had the flattop cooking station so you could see the chefs preparing all the food; the bar was also in that area. We knew beforehand about the unlimited drinks option so we of course went with that - $36/person and had like 4 different brunch drink options you can rotate through over the 90 minutes. Our server came over pretty quickly to introduce herself and get our initial order. I was hoping to try out the Biscuits & Cajun Crab Gravy but they ran out of biscuits, so I ended up ordering the Chicken & Beignets instead. Boyfriend went with the Shrimp and Tasso Country Grits. Omg... Everything was delicious! Chicken had the perfect crisp and cook, beignets baked just right so they were soft and well complimented with the blueberry compote. And I had a bit of the grits - so creamy, perfect texture with a unique yet satisfying flavor with the sauce. Could kind of taste the coffee but also felt like there was something like a hint of curry or something in that red sauce - it was very good! Highly recommend checking this place out (make reservations for the weekend!). Because there are more things on this menu we would want to try, we said we have to try to come back very soon

    I was talking with a group of friends about New Orleans food and realized how much I miss it. Since…read moreI can't make a trip down there anytime soon, I searched for Louisiana-style gumbo in New York and came across this restaurant. After seeing the photos and reading the reviews, I was excited to give it a try. Unfortunately, I left highly disappointed. From the appetizers to the entrée to the dessert, nothing gave me that "wow" factor. Even the dining setup wasn't enjoyable--the tables were so close together that I could clearly hear conversations on both sides of me. It made it hard to even have a private conversation at my own table. I started with the charred oysters. They were just okay--nothing memorable. The smell wasn't very appealing, and the flavor didn't work for me either. Maybe there was too much Parmesan, but whatever it was, the flavors just didn't come together. Next were the fried green tomatoes with shrimp, and this dish really confused me. The shrimp had a sauce similar to what you'd find on Asian-style rock shrimp, but the shrimp were served cold. That combination just didn't make sense to my taste buds. I ordered two different gumbos to compare them. The crab gumbo was a complete miss for me--I absolutely did not enjoy the flavor. The "Gumbo All In" was better. It had some bold flavors, and while it wasn't amazing, it was definitely the one I preferred. The drinks were just okay. Nothing special. For dessert, I tried the Caramel Cornbread Cake and the beignets. I took the cake home and ate it the next day, so maybe that affected it, but I still didn't enjoy it. The beignets were even more disappointing because they weren't fully cooked in the center. I really wanted to like this place because I was craving authentic Louisiana flavors, but it just didn't deliver for me. Based on my experience, I don't see myself coming back.

The oysters were incredible!! I'm not a huge fan of po-boys, but the bread was soft and it didn't have too much mayo, which is what I prefer. I added hot sauce provided on the counter. The staff was friendly and they even threw in a coffee & chicory panna cotta for us to taste, which was delicious. I would definitely come back for the oysters and to try either the gumbo or the crawfish etouffee. Would be back a lot more often if they had a special drink happy hour considering the food is a bit pricey.

Original Hurricane was perfection, had to have another. Not a boozy taste but it does catch up with you. I was a little disappointed with the catfish because I was expecting that Nawlins flavor and it was just fried catfish, meh. The cup of gumbo and the spoonful of rice (not complaining about that, it was enough) is where all of the flavor is! The chicken, the andouille and the roux, brought back so many good memories of good food while in the French Quarter. They did that, I should have gotten a larger portion! Our waiter John was very nice and checked in on us regularly, didn't have to lock for him or try to get his attention. Again the place is small but he was very attentive. I would go back just to try other things and hopefully I will get more of that flavor.
