Rating: 3.8 Stopped…read moreby this place for dinner after visiting IKEA. Looks like typical cajun boiled seafood place. Parking lot available at the plaza. Inside is designed with bunch of boards with drawings and comments from previous customers. Place was somewhat busy with most seats filled when we got there. We were seated right away and given menu to order. We ordered some seafood boil to share. We got 2lb shrimp, 1lb snow crab, 1lb clam and side of cajun rice and garlic noodle. Food came out within few minutes. Garlic noodle and cajun were decent. The cajun rice was kind of stuck together and not mixed well. Would have liked more ingredients and flavor they used for seafood boil. Seafood boil was pretty good. We got one bug bag with just cajun sauce and 1 shrimp with house sauce. They put a lot more spice on larger bag so they had a lot kore flavor where smaller bag din't have too much flavor and was watered down. Even so overall the seafood was good. Little bit of de shelling and messy but thats usually the case for seafood boil. I like to mix some of the seafood juice onto garlic noodle/cajun rice to add more flavors. Service was good and waitress was very attentive. The place was very cold as it was cold outside and probably not well insulated. It ended up cooling our food while we were rating which was a bummer. Overall it's a solid cajun seafood boil place. But nothing really stood out compared to others that I had. I would recommend if you are around the area and craving for cajun seafood boil but there are better places out there.

It was awful clam strips or horrible like the ones you buy in Shaws fish was OK gave us two little pieces before our food came, we looked around and we seen that. It was very dirty and filthy under the tables. They look like they haven't cleaned since the night before obviously, we were the first ones there so it should've been spotless. I have pictures to prove it will never return back. Disgusting.

Our party of six ordered a variety of dishes, and we enjoyed everything.

I definitely plan to return!

We stopped in at 5 yesterday and were worried the restaurant would be busy, but we were sat immediately. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated with lots of nautical themes. Our waitress was lovely and explained the menu to us in detail. As it was our first time at a seafood boil she was very patient with all our questions. Ultimately I had the 2lb boil with 1lb of mussels, 1/2lb of shrimp, and 1/2lb of clams in the captain Loui sauce with a side of garlic noodles. Our waitress came back quickly with a bib, gloves, and a bucket for shells. Not long after our meals came out and let me tell you everything was excellent! The seafood was cooked perfectly, plenty of sauce, and even the corn and potato were out of this world. I ordered the sauce medium and it definitely had a nice kick to it. The garlic noodles had great flavor, a little clumpy but with a little of that captain Loui sauce added on top it fixed the problem. It's not cheap but for a once in a while special occasion treat I can not recommend this place enough!

I always get the pick 2 and select the shrimp with head on and mussels. Comes with some potatoes and corn; also a side of your choice (I always do extra corn or garlic noodles!) you pick your sauce (get the capt Louie sauce!) and spice level (hot! Is best). The only place I'll got 10 fingers in on a meal and let the sauce get all over my face (I usually hate eating with my hands).. it's so worth it.

Staff check in at the right moments, offer helpful suggestions, and keep the energy friendly.

We called in to ask what the situation is and you can tell English isn't their first language so communication was very difficult. We explained to them our situation and they kept on trying to explain to us what happened and we kept trying to confirm what is going on but the answer kept changing. In the end, we were told to ordered AGAIN. So we did and paid twice and hoped they'll refund our first order. It's 10:00pm and we are still hungry and waiting for food. We spoke to three different people and not a single one really understood the situation or know what was going on. Now, we are currently en route to pick up our order and we ordered delivery.... Edit... after I've finally picked up my food, I have to update my review. The first part of my review is NOT on the resturant. It's on Uber eats and maybe I'm biased but I just hate Uber in general. Edited again!!! I just looked at the photos by the "business owners" on Yelp. Be warned, that is NOT that resturant. They don't make alcoholic beverages nor does the food actually looked mixed well enough like that. That is false advertisement. Look at my photos and you can see. **do not order through Uber eats or Grubhub or DoorDash. Just order through them. They deliver and they won't up charge you. Plus, Uber eats fudged my order twice by canceling as well as taking the food and disappearing. First, I got the Cajun style clams and mussels. As well as the free garlic noodles per promo of Uber eats. Spicy level was hot. The sauce wasn't entirely mixed which was fine since I'm weird and I tend to like the clumps of raw Cajun sauce. Mussels were normal sized but the clams could definitely be a lot bigger. I've been to shaking crab in both providence and Braintree and to be honest, you're better off going to those restaurants for good eating. But!!! If you are really in desperate need of Cajun food while in Fall River, this place is your go to. The garlic noodles was very... Chinese food inspired. You can tell from my picture that it's basically lomein cooked with minced garlic. Conclusion... If quality of ingredients were legit shaking crab quality chain store, then this would be a lot higher of a rating. Went in in person to meet the owners and they are nice folks but It was super frustrating at first because of Uber messing up our order, and finally making us wait 5 hours and then to drive to the resturant to get our order past closing hours. But it's honestly just your typical Chinese resturant trying to make an imitation of shaking crab. Not bad for Fall River? But not up to par with the actual chain.

Amongst the many places we searched this was where we wanted to go first. We got here around 1 pm and there was a good amount of seating available. The New Orleans inspired theme and music made this place such a good vibe to eat at. We had the gumbo, fish and chips, and beignets to share. The gumbo was a first time for us and it was extremely tasty, the mix of soft and savory chicken with a spicy soft yet tender pork sausage mixed with rice was amazing. The fish and chips were great as well but having the beignets at the end was truly the best finish to this fine experience.

First, the good... my dinner partner had the shrimp and grits and enjoyed the meal. Okay, that was the good! For me, I ordered the French Quarter burger with onion rings. The burger was lacking flavor. It was supposed to be dusted with creole, which could not be detected. The onions on the burger were way over cooked and had zero flavor. The scallion aioli saved the burger to add some flavor. The onion rings were overly greasy and most of them were soggy. I will chalk my experience as a bad night for the French Quarter, but I weighed out my dinner mates meal, with a good drink, and a bad meal to give them three stars.

First off: the food was outstanding. The kind of meal where everyone at the table were all raving about their food. Everything came out hot, flavorful, and fast considering the size of our group. Second: the staff deserves a medal. Not only were they friendly and efficient, but they also went above and beyond splitting checks for all 11 people individually without making us feel like we'd committed a felony. Anyone who has ever dined with a large group knows this alone is a five-star act of heroism. The ambiance was fun, energetic, and just the right amount of spunky. It felt lively without being overwhelming, the kind of place where you immediately relax and accidentally stay longer than planned. And finally, the soundtrack. Whoever was running the music understood the assignment. Absolute bangers all night. At one point I genuinely wasn't sure whether I was there for dinner or about to break out into dance. Fantastic food, great vibes, awesome service, and a team that clearly knows how to handle groups without breaking a sweat. Would absolutely come back.
