    Authentic food. Everything is delicious. Family owned restaurant and super nice. I love coming here with my family on weekends. From natural juices to delicious desserts and very affordable.

We've dined in before but that was a long time ago & I couldn't recall the experience. Anyhow, husband made some bomb sticky rice the day before and since we had no ideas for what to make tonight, this sounded like a great solution! I highly recommend this deal! I ordered the 1lb head on shrimp. Daddy sauce. Mild. It was perfectly cooked and very tasty. At first I thought it was too spicy, after a few, I realized it was the perfect amount of spice. The portion was plentiful. Husband had the fish po' boy with garlic fries and said it was great. Total was $31 including tax.

    I am beyond disappointed and honestly disturbed by my experience at this restaurant…read more My seafood order was mistakenly delivered to another table. That table opened the dish and ate some of the rice. Instead of immediately discarding the entire plate and remaking the meal, the server brought the same dish back to me after realizing the mistake. I was told "they didn't touch it," which was completely untrue. Once food has been served to another table and opened, it should NEVER be given to another guest -- especially seafood. This is basic food safety. The fact that this was even debated is alarming. There was no compensation, no manager intervention, and no real accountability -- just a casual apology. Only the rice was replaced, which does not resolve the fact that the rest of the dish had already been handled and served elsewhere. This was not a minor mistake; it was a serious hygiene and professionalism failure. I should not have to question whether my food is safe to eat. Serving food that has already been eaten by another table isn't just careless -- it's unsafe, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable.

The spread included snow crab legs, shrimp, crawfish, corn, potatoes, quail eggs, and eggs, all drenched in their signature Crab & Spice special sauce.

The crab legs were tender and meaty, and the shrimp and crawfish were bursting with flavor. We also ordered the shrimp po'boy sandwich and it was surprisingly really good -- crispy, well-seasoned shrimp with great texture and taste. Everything came out hot, flavorful, and super satisfying. Great spot for a seafood feast, especially if you're into bold Cajun-style seasoning. Definitely coming back!

We were particularly in the mood for something like kickin kasian, but this spot doesnt have the long wait time or the heartburn you feel after enjoying your meal. Dont get me wrong, the food was still flavorful. My suggestion is to get a menu, claim a table, and the place your order at the counter. When I went, there was only 1 order taker. He didnt give us a number to place on our table (the place was that small). Your table will get a paper cover over it and you can request for gloves and a bib.. Ordering is pretty straightforward: 1) Pick your choice of seafood (half and by the pound). Limited options when its by the half. 2) Select sauce. I did the crab mentality which mixes it all together 3 select spice level. The mild had a good subtle kick for me but incredibly hot had an extra zip Meals were served to us in less than 15 minutes. Overall, we enjoyed our meals. Calamrari and fries appetizer had a nice crunchy bite. And i was happy i got to substitute the fries for cajun ones. The fisherman's half bounty had the best balance of different seafood options. But I did not like my oysters that I ordered. Well some had this great flavor and than others had a fishy taste to it. It was a little disconcerting. The peeled shrimp was cooked perfectly with good flavor from the sauce. I did add some lemon juice to mine just cause I like it more lemony. You get a good serving of food for the price, compared to other spots. They dont have many drink options, but like I said, its a food hall. So I just got some boba from a spot next door. Ill definitely be swinging by again!

However, over the last year or so with the new ownership, I've noticed they've been giving less sauce, and now I usually have to buy an extra side with my order. There was also an employee who told me he wouldn't serve me unless I took my water bottle back to the car, which felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. My family and I truly enjoy coming here, so I hope they continue the great quality and customer service we used to receive with the previous owners. Please don't skimp on the sauce -- it's what makes this place so special!

    Lovely spot for drinks and dinner in Santa Clarita…read more I was in the area running errands and decided to grab dinner nearby on a Thusday evening around 6:30 pm. I found this place on Yelp and dropped by for dinner. My party of 2 was seated immediately. Personally I thought the menus were hard to read. The gray lines in the background were quite dark and clashed with the actual menu items. My suggestion to the restaurant would be to reprint the menus with lighter background. They have an extensive cocktail menu with a lot of gin-based drinks. They also have good selection of wine and NA drinks as well, including some mocktails. I got the I'm Driving mocktail ($13), which I really liked. It had good passion fruit flavor without being too sour. Felt like a really nice tropical juice. My friend really liked his drink Bramblin' Man ($17), which had strong notes of bourbon and blackberry. I wasn't super hungry, but the braised short rib looked amazing so I got that for $43. It was very tender, but I personally found it bland especially on the inside. I asked for additional sauce so I could drench each bite in the sauce. My favorite part of the plate was surprisingly the potato croquette, which was perfectly crispy and well flavored. My friend got the chicken club ($23), which he enjoyed. I stole a bunch of his seasoned fries since they were so good. I would've loved to get dessert but was too stuffed. Next time!
