When we got there we asked for a menu which never came (we had to borrow one from another party), the server brought about 10 plastic cups for our table of 3 but no water and then when she finally brought our food we had to get our own silverware. At one point she turned the TV on for music and had it blasting at 100 although we asked for it to be lowered so we could actually hear our conversations. We also sat for so long that we contemplating leaving without ordering. We waited atleast 50mins before she even came back to take our order. We ordered Fried Shrimps, Potatoes in butter, Gumbo and Spaghetti with Meatballs and Spaghetti with Shrimp. The Fried Shrimp and Potates were good but the Spaghetti on the other hand was terrible. My Dad said it tasted as though they threw a can of Spaghetti-O's in a bowl and added some Shrimp (I can confirm too that's exactly how it tasted). We should've known better than to order Pasta from a Seafood restaurant. Not a good experience at all!

We finished just in time for our 5:00 pm dinner reservations, and we switched tables. My dad and I split the Clam Bake. The lobster was some of the best I've ever had, and the mussels were delicious. I didn't like the shrimp or clams as much. The clams were really small and several had sand in them. The shrimp were a bit overcooked, and lacked flavor. Next time, I would opt for just a lobster. For dessert, I got chocolate pecan pie, and it was so good! It was more chocolate than pecan flavored, which I didn't mind. The accompanying vanilla ice cream was delicious, coming out with a crisp chocolate coating. Yum!

This would have been a 5-star review but the lemon-pepper chicken which a little too seasoned (salty) for me but dipping them in both a ranch and blue cheese dressing with a few dollops of Tabasco sauce was a good recommendation.

This was my first time actually ordering a platter from them. It's in a busy area so parking is a little hard to do. Pack patients. The lady who answered the phone and took my order was very nice. They were very slow. My order took a very long time. I feel like it was overpriced and they give you these little small potatoes and nothing much. The platter was just OK. I was very disappointed. I was looking forward to a really good seafood platter. I also ordered the cannoli and the shell was stale! The filling was good. So disappointing because I love a good cannoli. Overall, I was disappointed and I'm not sure if I would ever get a platter from them again or any cannolis.

The people there were very friendly, warm and inviting. I felt very comfortable. The food was great! I had pan seared Tilapia. There was so much food that I could not finish.

The decor is colorful with a nautical theme. Since there were so many options, I had a hard time deciding what to order. I finally went with one of the seafood combination boils, and chose Combo A, which consisted of half pound snow crab, half pound shrimp with no head, corn, potato, and broccoli. I also added Sausage, which was $1 extra. I was very happy with the Snow Crab, because the legs were nice and thick. I used the cracker tool to get the meat out and it worked pretty well. The crab meat was delightfully tender, flaky, and was full of flavor made even tastier in the buttery garlic sauce. The shrimp had to be peeled, but was quite juicy and succulent. The veggies were fresh, soft, and cooked perfectly. The sausage was wonderfully well seasoned. I also got to try Coconut Shrimp, Hush Puppies, and Sweet Potato Fries. The Coconut Shrimp was lightly breaded, amazingly crispy, with the great taste of coconut. The Hush Puppies were also decent, and satisfyingly crunchy. Sweet potato fries were yummy and addicting. Service was great. Our server was friendly and on top of it, making sure we were taken care of. I was certainly happy with meal. If I return, I would try the Fried Basket of Fried Flounder with Calamari, and Seafood Fried Rice.
