    This review is for a pick up order. It was easy to place an order online and you pay at pick up. I got there about 5 to 10 minutes before the pick up time and it was ready! The hostess was friendly and prompt. As I was looking around, it looked pretty busy for a Thursday evening, which is great for business. Food was packaged well and tasted great. Ordered the bag with crab legs, potatoes, corn, shrimp, and sausage ($42.50 total). The sauce was pretty good and buttery.

    I recently decided to retry this restaurant and I'm so glad I did. I grabbed a boil bag with garlic noodles and it was absolutely delicious! Ordering to go seems to be quick and it's always a nice vibe and good service.

    It has gone way downhill. The food was good and it looked clean and nicely decorated, but the customer service is so bad! Our waiter was nice, but he dropped off our food and we never saw him again. He didn't ask if we needed gloves, utensils, he didn't check on us, gave no refills, nothing! We had to ask another waitress to grab him for to go bags and the check. Then, we had to pay in front because again, he's no where to be found. The waitstaff/hostesses all had a stank faces and attitude. Wtf?! This place has potential if they hire better staff and more of them. This place is a hard pass.

    This is one of my granddaughter's favorite places to eat, so we usually order the family boil with dungenous crab, clams & headless shrimp with 1/2 lb sausage and 3 eggs added. The sauce is good as long as it's not too spicy, but she likes it hot so we get extra sauce on the side. I also like the garlic noodles.

    This place never misses. Reasonable prices for delicious food service is coo. Definitely the perfect place for a family outing or even an intimate date night. The family meal is best for two ppl at the most. Comes with 1lb of your choice of seafood (I got dungeoness crab legs) 3 potatoes & 3 corn. And you get to choose 2 sides. I got sausage & headless shrimp ($4). And the sauce is AMAZING. Get a mixture of all the sauces together **chefs kiss**

    We came in on a Saturday night for my lil sis birthday dinner. She wanted some crab legs and shrimp so we decided on this spot. It was our first time coming. Parking was packed but we managed to find a spot, they have a large lot! We arrived and were greeted by the host. However, staff were just okay throughout our entire night. The host was in sweats and her hair in a bun and I'm not one to judge but she was just rude and kind of obnoxious. We didn't get checked on much by our waitress.. I ordered a shrimp po'boy (not worth it) it only came with 6 shrimp, like 2 wedges of lettuce and 2 pieces of tomato. The only good thing about it was the sauce! Not sure what kinda sauce it was but it was fire! My mom and brothers all got catfish, tilapia and chicken wings with sweet potato fries, cajun fries & onion rings. They didn't even have any hot sauce other than TAPATIO.... Like what? Where's the siracha and crystal? It's fish! I don't want no TAPATIO.. We also got fried cheese sticks and fried calamari and oysters.. all of it tasted so frozen and some weren't even cooked all the way in the middle. Lastly, we ordered the famous low country boil with cajun and lemon pepper medium hot. It came with an egg, potato, corn, shrimp, crab legs and sausage. The flavor was on point, but the quality of the food could've been better. I guess you just gotta think about how busy this place gets and how much seafood they must go through. I wouldn't come back and honestly don't recommend. I'd rather spend my money elsewhere and get treated better than the service they give here.

    I had been driving past this location for almost year since it opened and decided to finally stop in! So glad I did. There is plenty of parking. We went in on a Saturday afternoon around 2p and we were seated right away. The restaurant is super spacious and there was plenty of room for our baby stroller next to our table. Our waitress came over right away to take our drink orders. I decided to start with a cocktail and got the Dusse sidecar. It was 10/10 amazing. We started with the shrimp appetizer which was excellent. We both decided to get seafood boils which also came out excellent. I was so surprised to see that they had blue crab as an option! I am a Marylander who grew up k blue crabs so I am always excited when I can get it on the west coast. Service was great. Restaurant was clean and safe. Will definitely be visiting again next time I'm in the mood for seafood.

    tasteless nasty. I was told to add it to my garlic boil, I'm so confused

    Garlic noodles pale, tasteless and nasty asf. I'm hoping the boil is better. I usually never leave reviews but being that I pay $60 for water it's crazy.

    The food was good. The waitress was nice and friendly. The music wasn't too loud. We have went in there to eat for my goddaughter's birthday.

There is a parking lot at the back of the restaurant which is where this bar is located. It's a close-knit bar, but it does get a decent amount of people inside! The drinks are delicious. I highly recommend Jalapeño Business (mezcal or tequila, cucumber, jalapeño, agave, fresh squeezed lime). SO refreshing with a chamoy tajin rim. I also enjoyed The Nightcap (vodka, bailey's, cold brew, coffee liqueur). The bartender was very friendly and made the drinks quickly! You can also order food (since it's connected to a restaurant), and we ordered gyoza and shrimp tempura which came out piping hot and were both delicious. Definitely stop by if you're looking for a chill bar to get a drink, it is a small space so just be aware your conversations can easily be heard by others. Not a problem if you're friendly though!

The mint mojito she made me wasn't a drink... it was a religious experience. I don't know what she put in it (mint? magic? a degree in mixology from Hogwarts?) but I considered texting my ex just to tell her I've finally found happiness. Now let's talk about the Sol Fish.

Very disappointing experience when we came for a friend's birthday. Looking at the pics this place appears to be a very cute speakeasy and when you enter you find that to be true. They have a few cocktails that are pretty creative like my favorite, their clarified fruity pebbles cocktail. We all got cocktails and only about 1/2 of the drinks were really appreciated. Anyway, what held them back here was definitely the food. I'll start off by saying that yes we had a light dinner of sushi prior to making our way over. So keeping that in mind, we still had the idea of getting some small bites. We didn't want to over commit so we started with what I believe was the Grilled Peach Burrata. Now if we are going purely off flavors, it wasn't bad and it was a cute pairing of ingredients for what sounded like a great bite. On first bite we found this to be a horrendous dish. At first we thought, there's no way the bread was really THAT stale and hard. We thought there's no way that it could be every single piece that was that inedible. We were sorely mistaken. When I tell you that little crostini was hard and stale I'm telling you this thing was so terribly stale that we immediately thought of how disappointed we were in coming here and that we would NEVER consider coming back again. As for the service we remember it being a tad underwhelming as well but not terrible. The only thing that in my mind keeps me from rating them a 1, and I don't do that almost ever, is that my cocktail was just my style. I'm an old fashioned kind of guy but I also love the cute, creative and sweet cocktails as well. This fruity pebbles cocktail also came topped with sort of a Rice Krispie style fruity pebbles treat that I absolutely loved. After ordering a 2nd one however I found that they are not very consistent with their drink preparations as the 2nd one just wasn't as good. The ratio of whatever they put in there just seemed off. I'll finish off by saying that I so desperately wanted this place to be good. Was it an off night? Is this just their level of execution? Who is to say. Maybe one day I'll feel inclined to give them another chance but who knows. I have also heard that they did a lot of revamping so maybe things are looking up now.

For my meal, I ordered the chicken Philly with mayo. No one likes a dry sandwich, but that's exactly what I got. The chicken was overcooked, making the sandwich almost inedible. The fries were even worse undercooked, unseasoned, and half-frozen in the middle. Adding salt after the fact didn't help. Overall, 8/10 would NOT recommend for the food.
