We weren't sure if we would like it, so we didn't order much. Im already looking at the food truck schedule to see when they'll be in the area again. Can't wait for try their other items on their menu such as the crab legs & fried shrimp. Also will be buying their signature sauce. Highly recommend giving Ladson Sauce Seafood a try. You will not be disappointed!

The decor is your typical seafood boil decor. I loved the fish hanging from the ceilings. Our server was Jody and she alone deserves 5 stars. She was so amazing and took great care of us. If we come back I will request her each time. The Food: we had a big group so everyone ordered a variety of things. I opted for a few things off the appetizer menu. I ordered the Fried Scallops which came with 6 scallops, the Hushpuppies which came with 10 hushpuppies and a cinnamon butter dip, and lastly I ordered the the Fried Shrimp which came with 10 shrimps and cocktail sauce. Everything was pretty good. The scallops were my least favorite, I was not a fan of the chewiness, but dipped in some tartar sauce they were not that bad. I also did not like the small portion of scallops for the price. The hushpuppies were amazing! They had a delicious taste and also had chunks of corn in it which I loved. The corn wasn't too chunky and blended perfectly with the breading. The cinnamon butter dip that came with it added a nice sweet touch but I honestly preferred them by itself. The shrimp were nice and chunky and battered to perfection. I would say the shrimp did lack flavor on the breading, but I ordered a side of Cajun sauce and mixed it with the tartar sauce and that really elevated the shrimp. Everyone else really enjoyed their food. Some people ordered seafood bags and were very pleased with their portions and taste. We even had a birthday cake that Jody was so gracious to store for us until it was time to eat it. Very glad I got a chance to try out Yummi Crab, we will definitely be back when we are craving seafood or Jody's great customer service.

Every so often you have to take a scroll back and see if anything new has been added to the menus. Not sure if this is new, but it's definitely something I haven't tried. We tried the Bang Bang Shrimp along with the Fried Shrimp Po' Boy platter and Hush Puppies. The Bang Bang Shrimp sauce was different from what we had tasted before, but it was good. I was looking for a sweeter taste but again, it still had a great taste. It came on a bed of lettuce. The Shrimp Po' Boy platter came with French Fries. The fries were crunchy and delicious! Matter of fact, they were perfect:) The Shrimp Po' Boy was good and simple. It didn't have a lot of stuff on it, which was cool for me. Again, the sauce was okay but the shrimp and fixings were delightful. These Hush puppies are always good, so no complaints there. Friendly staff and clean restaurant. This is a place I recommend. I will be back soon:)

Staying close to the Floyd School of Medicine + rainy days encouraged me to peruse local eateries…read more While the pictures of food were enticing, the simplistic and well trodden interior made me question my choice upon entering. I took it as a good sign that the phone was ringing off the hook and patrons were coming in and out constantly. Once the food arrived, however, all concerns faded away...#yum. While Garners doesn't offer the same variety of combos that other seafood boil venues, you can choose a 1/2 order of *any* seafood. This allows for a variety of seasonings and add ons (i.e., they don't throw it all in the same bag) providing myriad ways to customize. I was very happy with my mussels and shrimp; seasoning was solid. I'm not a fan of the Styrofoam containers with all that liquid, but to each their own. The wings were nothing to rave about; breaded and lightly sauced. *A note on heat: The employee taking my order at the register suggests no hotter than a 3 on their 5 point scale. As one who completes the BWW Blazin' Challenge on a whim, I wasn't nervous about going higher, but every cajun boil interprets this scale differently. In the end, I could have handled a 4...maybe a 5 if I wanted to sweat, but I was happy with the 3.

I was really disappointed with this meal and the overall experience. As someone who comes from a…read morelarge Samoan and Polynesian family, I have a strong appreciation and understanding of what Hawaiian-inspired food should taste like, and unfortunately, this missed the mark. The macaroni salad was incredibly bland and tasted like it had little to no dressing. A good Hawaiian-style mac salad should be creamy, flavorful, and properly seasoned. This one lacked the texture and taste that make it a staple of the cuisine. The steak was overcooked, under-seasoned, and seemed to rely mostly on sauce for flavor instead of having the seasoning and preparation built into the meat. Hawaiian-style food should be about balance, flavor, and proper technique not just adding sauce at the end to compensate. The drink situation also added to the disappointment. None of the fountain drink machines were working, and we were only offered canned soda. When I asked if there were any alternatives, such as lemonade or iced tea, for customers who don't drink soda, I was told no options were available. Having a few non-soda choices is a basic expectation, especially when the main beverage system is unavailable. The cleanliness of the restaurant was another concern. Several tables and chairs appeared not to have been wiped down, and the windowsills needed attention as well. These may seem like small details, but they are the things customers notice when they walk into an establishment. Cleanliness and attention to detail are a big part of the overall dining experience. If a restaurant is going to offer Hawaiian-style cuisine, it should take the time to learn authentic recipes and techniques or work with people who have genuine cultural knowledge and experience preparing these dishes. Hawaiian and Polynesian food has a rich history and deserves to be represented with care and respect. I hope they take this feedback as an opportunity to improve, because the concept has potential, but the execution needs significant work. The food, cleanliness, and overall customer experience need more attention before I could recommend this place.
