    Seafood boil. In super thick butter sauce. It wasn't good at all. Too greasy. Too heavy. Flavorless.
    Yolanda S.

    JUST HORRIBLE. I spent about $60.00 on a seafood boil, with another dish of crawfish for my partner and I. All dishes were drowned in very very thick, grainy butter. Everything was swimming in it. I don't believe my stomach can take this much grease at once. Also, seafood boils are suppose to be a bit healthy and this dish, swimming in super thick butter that is caked on everything is far, far from healthy. Also, if you have acid reflux (GERD) this dish will be absolutely disastrous. It can cause an attack. I tasted a few shrimp pieces on the dish and I just couldn't go on. The flavor of the seafood is not there. This thick greasy butter sauce is simply not flavorful either. It's nasty. Everything has a thick greasy layer. This 'butter' destroys the taste of the meal. Also, Is this even butter? Butter has some flavor. This gooey mess has no flavor. The crawfish were also swimming in water (which you can't see per the pictures but when the plate is held the crawfish just slosh around in it) and caked up greasy butter. I've never seen that much water in a crawfish dish. It was yucky looking. It's like the guy pulled out the crawfish frozen over in ice and just cooked it in the tray and gave it out with the sauce poured into the water. This is a travesty. Honestly. I've lost my money. But you live and you learn. The portions were generous and I do give that to them, but the thick, flavorless, butter sauce that drowned out the flavor and made everything inedible was too much. Shame. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW SEAFOOD BOILS AT ALL. I CAN'T EAT THIS! UPDATE: My partner and I were able to salvage some of the seafood boil by wiping down Some of the pieces. We had to use almost an entire paper towel roll. (View the photos). That sauce was like goo. It clung to our fingers and the food and was sort of slimy and grainy. I do not believe that is butter. We refused to touch the crawfish dish. It was beyond disgusting. Again the photos do not capture how disgusting this dish looked. when the container was moved the water separated from the gooey sauce and you could just see the water sloshing around. It looked like dirty sink or sewage water. So we tossed it. We did not eat even one of them.

    So this is dope!!! I watch crab boils on YouTube so I have been dying to try this place out for awhile now. RESTAURANT QUALITY: you walk in and immediately realize... sitting space is a whole other level of limited. Almost feels like it is encouraging you to go "eat this at home cuz we don't want to clean up this mess you bout to make" lol. It's about 5 tables along the wall and then just sitting space for your to-go order. Not very pleasant to be honest. The bar chairs in the middle of the floor makes you want to just go wait outside cuz it feels like a hospital waiting room. The staff is okay ... kind of a toss up on the attitude you may get tbh. I wish all staff just used the chic-fil-a rubric on customer service... then again everyone isn't getting an automatic Sunday off lol. (2stars) -limited space -cuztomer service FOOD QUALITY: AWESOMENESS!!! the food is great! You definitely get a bang for your buck. My plate lasted me awhile to be honest, because you are basically getting your own personal mini crab boil. It was full of flavor! Wasn't a big fan of the sausage though. It wasn't much uniqueness there. Just smothered in the butter. I was really happy with the turn out when it came to the flavor in the shrimp and crab but was a little disappointed with the potatoes. They were good but since they take up a lot of the plate, you'd expect those potatoes to be as fire as the crab meat tbh. They were tender but the flavor was a hit and miss. It would probably be good for them to have a crab boil dipping sauce to cancel out the hit and miss flavor of the potatoes. To be honest, my only take away is that I wish they advertised some dipping sauces to use. I seen a little thing of sauces, but I didn't know if they would be good or not since it wasn't brought to attention. My advice is that they look up this chick Belovely seafood crab boils and see what the heck she makes as a sauce because that sauce she is using makes me want to do my own crab boil and make my own sauce to use with it. (4 stars) -quantity -flavor -fridge life OVERALL- call your order in, expect to eat it at home, and make your own crab boil dipping sauces. Lol

    I placed my order online and the automated system said it would be 45-1hr long wait before i received my food but shortly after i submitted my order, i got a notification that it was in route to me!!! That made me happy! The food wasn't as hot as i would've like it, but it was delivered so i didn't expect too much. I put it in the oven before eating it and it was really good!!!! I'd def try it again!

    Not fancy but family. Not pricey in my opinion because it's seafood. For all you get, it's pretty dang good. Fresh fried is all I have tasted. Not "overrrr"fried and rubbery. Catfish was awesome. Made 2 meals from one take out! That'll do it. Will return again. Thank you

    Everything was absolutely delicious and the girls at front desk was very nice and knowledgeable. I got the lemon pepper sauce mixed with spicy sauce. Definitely has a kick to it. Overall experience was great, I definitely recommend it!!!

    Very good. Had the fish/shrimp. Lot of food. I recommend takeout. Tables crowded. Did not wait long. Will definitely be back. Don't open til 11:30.... not good.

    Absolutely great!!! Food was amazing, staff was friendly and helpful, place is charming and cozy! So happy I gave with place a try! I was on my way to another crab place when I drove by and stopped randomly, and so glad I did. I got the #2 and wow! Everything was cooked perfectly. Flavour was on point. I will definitely be back! Only critique I have at all for the place would be there are no crab leg crackers. I just moved to Memphis and don't have anything unpacked yet. So eating was a little bit of a challenge when I brought my leftovers home.(at the shrimp at the restaurant)

    Boiled eggs drowned in butter

    Absolute worst seafood experience I've ever had! I was excited to try them for the first time and given that I was purchasing what I thought would be a healthy option was totally the opposite. All of my platters were DROWNED in the butter sauce. I thought it was extremely odd that I placed my online order which indicted 35-40 minutes prep time. It wasn't even 15 minuted later that I received the order ready notification. It was exactly 10 minutes. I checked my order confirmation time against the order ready notification. Mind you my food was Luke warm upon arrival. Anyone knows that made to order boiled seafood is not ready that fast and packaged within that small window of time. Now I see how it was prepared that quickly.... they simply dumped all this sauce on top. I just wasted $108 because there is no way that I can consume this.

    I really LOVE the Shrimp Pasta, and the Crab Legs. I have more things to try still. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The vibe was just warm and Very Cozy!!! It was worth the wait. It's small inside.

    My sister and I are in town for a wedding. We were in the mood for seafood and saw the awesome reviews about this place. We ordered the #2 platter which included 2 snow crab clusters, 13 shrimp, an egg, sausage, and potatoes for $28.99. We added Cajun butter and this food was to die for! The food came in a to-go container but there was so much. It was ready in 5 min after we ordered. It was my sister's first time eating crab legs and she is hooked! This place is in Houston, TX and Memphis, TN. The owner wants to bring it to Miami, Orlando, and Atlanta. Love this place and highly recommend it!

    Very good flavor, but wish it was a little bit more spicier. The price is a little bit more higher than other options, but they make up in flavor.

I love the sauce, and you can definitely tell the oysters are fresh. Next, we had the steak and mashed potatoes -- the steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The lobster bisque was my starter, and it was honestly one of the best I've had in a while. The only small disappointment was the dessert , pineapple upside down cake. It seemed a little overcooked because it had a slightly burnt taste at the bottom. Overall, the service is always 10/10, and I'd give the food a solid 9/10. Definitely one of my favorite places in Memphis for a quality dining experience. i'd like to come back again and watch the sunset from the patio.

Our server was barely attentive to our table. She went around checking on other tables near us, but hardly came to ours at all. The only time she really interacted with us was when she brought the check. No follow-up, no asking how the food was, no drink refills--nothing. It honestly felt like we were overlooked the entire time. To make things worse, she wasn't even the one who brought out our food. Someone else dropped it off, and after that we were basically on our own. For a restaurant at this price point, I expected much more attentive and professional service. The food didn't make up for it either. I ordered the Chilean sea bass, and it was very underwhelming. The fish lacked flavor, the potatoes were soggy, and overall it just wasn't enjoyable. Definitely not what you expect for the price. Overall, between the inattentive service and the disappointing food, the experience just didn't live up to the hype at all.

Our waitress allowed us to study the menu before deciding, since I don't really want to eat seafood with my hands, wearing church clothes. It was decided to buy whatever we feel like eating, without using tools to crack open, and have a picnic (hopefully with a table), in our suite. And have a quiet (not noisy like here) dinner to ourselves. (We did have a table for 2. Perfect!) We ordered, we told our waitress we're having our 51st Wed Anniversary this year. Crabcakes, Gumbo, Sweet Potato Fries, Corn on the cob, Fried Catfish Basket and Onion Rings. She remembered all that without writing! She did went back for condiments. With complimentary Chocolate Volcano cake for both of us. Thank you! The Gumbo, was perfect for our breakfast, enough for 4 servings. I had some with meals last night, we shared this morning, and enough for another meal. (We have a cooler). Everything else was delicious, perfectly seasoned, the catfish was packed in with the crabcake (which has shredded lettuce, slices of tomatoes), and it was still crispy! The Sweet Potato, packed by itself, was limpy, and so was the onion rings. We still ate them. We are just driving across the street, and we both agreed: Not crispy at all! I love the corn on the cob, and I love the Cajun seasoning, I thought I was having just buttered corn. This was a bonus, for me! And I usually don't like Cajun-style because in the past, they were always too spicy for me. But, Gumbo was my 1st choice for anything Cajun.

We just wanted to grab an early dinner (around 5pm) and get some "good" burgers. He ordered the Durango Burger and said it was fine, I ordered the Smokehouse burger and it was one of the top 3 worst burgers I've ever had in my life. I asked for the burger well done and when it arrived it was like a hockey puck and severely dry. The fries were soggy and covered in grease as well. The burger was just honestly so bad that if it wasn't $20+ after taxes, I would've not eaten it at all. It took me an extremely long time to even chew it and my husband kept laughing that I had to chase every bite down with water otherwise I would begin choking. This is not an exaggeration in the least. I think eating cardboard would have been easier. It was absolutely tasteless and hard. I honestly don't even understand how it's possible to ruin a patty this much. The waitress was fine but nothing special. She was polite but also was gone most of the time aside from taking our order, bringing our sweet teas and then bringing us the food and taking the payment. No actual checking in on us throughout the meal to make sure everything was fine. The restaurant was also borderline empty when we got there but we still had to stand at the host table for 5 minutes waiting to be seated and to not even be checked on during the meal was a little odd with the scarce amount of customers they had there. The check came out to $50 and some change for our two burgers and fries and I'm honestly so upset about it, still. I wish we had just grabbed Five Guys or something instead. If you're wanting burgers, this is NOT the place for you. There are also only THREE burger options on the menu. The Durango, the smokehouse and a plain cheeseburger. I probably will not be telling my husband that we will return to this place again. Today, I left hungry and severely disappointed.
