DIDNT EVEN NEED CRAB CRACKERS BECAUSE OF HOW PERFECTLY COOKED IT WAS. The seasoning was phenomenal, everything was cooked perfectly. And everyone was so nice!

Been wanting to try this place for some time. Ordered from here using Uber Eats so my review is…read morebased off of that experience. The website was easy to navigate and placing my order was super easy. I went with the Kings feast which comes with a snow crab cluster, shrimp, corn and potatoes. You are able to add whatever you like, so I added a sausage to mine and I picked the Memphis Mix sauce. Food was hot and ready when it reached me. Everything was seasoned well. I really liked the flavor of the Memphis mix. It was a decent amount of food and I ate every bite! I honestly wanted more once I was done. I will most definitely be ordering from them again. I want to try the rice. Heard it's really good.

I initially found JZ Swsfood while doing Uber Eats. The customers food made my car smell soooo…read moregood, I knew that I'd be returning. I ordered the $25.99 seafood combo. 1/2 snow crab, 1/2 shrimp, sausage, 2 eggs, 2 potatoes, 1 corn ( I believe) and I added an extra corn. First of all my food was ready when I got there and still piping hot. Now that's what I call service volume 1!!!! The bag was also HEAVY with food. A great bang for your buck!!! I got the boil home, and really didn't want to share with anyone but my friends kids looked up at me with pleading and I gave in. So I didn't technically taste the boil as it came. Because I buss it down with three packs of ramen and some Alfredo sauce. Instant seafood boil Alfredo ramen!!! Yes please. But all the seafood ingredients plus all that ATL seasoning made it do wat it do baby!!!! It was bussin! I'll definitely be back, and though it really did stretch, next time I wanna eat it as it comes so I can savor the original flavors.

I didn't get the low boil crab but this place gets all my lil stars. 1. I walk in and the service…read moreis efficient but friendly. I ordered the #7 which I believe is the friend shrimp basket. I got 15 pieces (they tell you on the menu) of standard sized shrimp for $18. I find this incredible because where I live that's maybe 7 pieces of shrimp. The shrimp is not small (smaller than butterfly but bigger than popcorn) and seasoned well. It came with fries and something, but they let me sub for fried okra and crab pasta salad. 2. My picky sis loved the okra. I was very pleased in general because it was a lot of okra and everything tasted good. But what you should take from this is my picky sis ate a few shrimp and okra and was very complimentary. Let's talk about the service. The place is a tight room that is all white besides the posted menus. Spartan is the right adjective. Anyway, they offered me a lil bag of popcorn for my wait because they know ppl get testy waiting for food. It's free popcorn and I thought a nice touch. My wait was probably 15 minutes and they have ordering online. I trust places with online ordering. They also take square and I think Apple Pay. Again, I am pleased. In summary, this is a great place that thinks about the small things but looks less welcoming than what it is. I've told several of my people to go. If you're like my sis and need lots of yelp reviews before trying a place, just go. It's good stuff. I certainly didn't expect to see a crab spot by my childhood home, but here we are.

I stopped by one of the Memphis, Tennessee Red Pier Cajun Seafood & Bar locations for lunch on a…read moreSunday afternoon. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was clean. The food had good flavor, and I would consider ordering it again. Unfortunately, it was served only lukewarm instead of at the proper temperature, which took away from the overall experience. What stood out most, however, was the presentation of the restaurant. Upon entering, I was greeted by numerous handwritten paper signs and messages written on dry-erase boards throughout the dining area. For a restaurant with mid-range pricing, this came across as unprofessional and distracted from the dining experience. I was also surprised that there was no standard silverware available--only individually wrapped, inexpensive plastic forks and spoons. As I was leaving, I noticed several customers were being served their meals in takeout containers rather than on traditional plates, which further gave the impression of a casual takeout establishment rather than a dine-in restaurant. Overall, the friendly service and flavorful food were definite positives, but the food temperature and the overall presentation of the restaurant left me remembering why I rarely choose to dine at Red Pier. With a few improvements to presentation and attention to detail, the experience could better match the prices being charged.

Prices are typical for a seafood spot. Hubby had some catfish from here as well and it was pretty good. It's not too far from home, so I'm pretty sure I'll be eating/ordering from here again. Maybe next time we can actually dine in and see what that's like.

They have several options for boils that will meet everyone's tastes.

The catfish was well seasoned, and the salad toppings paired nicely. I was excited for the cornbread that each dish was served with, but it was very dry and low-key hard to swallow. My boyfriend ate it without complaint, but I really wanted to like it. My boyfriend ordered the Blackened Salmon Plate with a side of Collards. We split a side of Sweet Potato Fries that were simple yet delicious. However, I'm not a fan of how much plastic they use. Each patron is served a drink in a plastic take-home Soul Fish Cafe cup. If you need a refill, you get another plastic cup. I can't imagine the amount of cups that they have to order and serve on a daily basis. I'd be open to coming again and would love to see them swap to a more sustainable drinking option.

How in the gash darn hell have I not written a review for The Half Shell Memphis?!?!?…read more I've been coming here since birth. Ok. Maybe not that long. Most definitely since I can remember. My parents had the blandest worst taste for food, so I was a depraved child as far as flavor was concerned. We ate at very blah places and my Mom was the pickiest person in the world, but.... She loved this fried shrimp! So we came here often. I grew up in Parkway Village so we were always nearby. Fast forward to my Yelp days. My first CM, Joelle had a part ownership of this place when I first started Yelping. We even had her going away party here when Yelp ruined the Memphis Elite Program with part time CM's for our city. She was part owner and we hung out there so it seemed inappropriate to write a review. Besides, I knew Danny pretty well too and that was also a conflict. Nowadays it's been bought by the folks that turned Forrest Hill Grill around. They have closed the location on Winchester (which I called years ago) and opened up in Germantown on Poplar. I have no idea who these people are so I guess it's time. I have not been to the new one, but I have seen the menu. I do not have any intentions of rushing to try it. Seems as if they butchered the whole dang menu. Anywho.... I still like this one. It's pretty run down, but the food is still good. It's still the original menu with all the treats. They have a freaking Monte Cristo sandwich folks! I know of less than five places left that still serve them. When is the last time you saw a twice baked potato? Here it is!! They still have a changing weekly, "daily special". They still have an intense regular bar business. Good luck getting a seat at the bar at any given time. Best of all they still have those damn tasty fried shrimp! Oh they are so good! The best ever man. The sauces they serve are great. I've been up and down the menu and it's almost always great. Oysters are some of the best charbroiled that there are anywhere in Shelby County. Long live OG Half Shell! Please never change! '25 - 44/111
