I think they have 1 person taking orders, delivery food and cleaning the tables. She does everything and does a great job but this slows the process. You will have to wait in line to order. You will have to wait a few minutes to get your food but the food is so good! The shrimp are exceptional. The fries are really good. I haven't found anything at this restaurant that is not good!

Stopped in just after the busy lunch crowd to give this place a shot. We were greeted right away…read moreand seated right after they bussed the table. We ordered the boudin egg rolls for an appetizer and wow! If you've never tried boudin anything before this is a great start! Apparently, folks drive from all over just to order them. They came with a secret recipe yellowish dipping sauce that had some horseradish and possibly Dijon mustard in it. We loved it and it was a perfect compliment to the egg rolls. For our meals we both ordered po' boy sandwiches. Mine was shrimp, hubs had fish which happened to be snapper. Both came fully loaded with mayo, lettuce, tomato and pickles on fresh French sub roll. And crispy fries for $12.99. The seafood was fresh and you could tell that it was. This place is a bit boring on the inside regarding its decor, but the food we ate was delicious. I'd recommend to anyone and hope to stop by again.

The food may be great, but I'll never know because according to our server the chef flat refuses to…read moreaccommodate dietary needs and wants. i wanted a seafood platter because i like some variety. I wanted it grilled because I eat low carb. The menu says that for $1.99 extra they will grill your platter, so that's what I ordered. The server said that the cook "will not" grill the seafood platter. If I want grilled I have to get the fish only platter or the shrimp only platter. I asked for a few more minutes to see if there was anything else I wanted. I still wanted the seafood platter so I asked for him to grill what he could and fry the rest, as a compromise. Then I was informed they the cook "will not" split up a platter like that. If I want the platter the ONLY way I can have it is ALL fried. Here's the thing. I "will not" pay $33 for a seafood platter if I can not have ANY of it the way I want it. It's a shame. I've been excited to try this place and it's the third time we've driven out there, and the first time we actually caught them open. I guess I won't be driving there again. Plenty of other seafood places in town are happy to grill oysters and crab claws if that is the way the customer wants them.

All the staff were very nice and checking on us frequently and thanked us for being there. I had the Senior catfish meal with salad and fries. It had one large piece of catfish that was plenty for me. I can tell a great catfish place by the tartar sauce. Wow was it good- plenty of onion flavor. My friend had a catfish po-boy which looked great. I sampled some of his onion rings and wished I had an order of them- light coating and perfectly cooked.

Staff was friendly, nice environment for kids. The sweet potato was surprisingly pretty delish. Would go back again.

I ordered a steamed shrimp poboy and cup of gumbo. The gumbo was served nice and hot. The flavor of the gumbo was ok, but the texture just seemed slightly slimy. It had shrimp and crab meat as proteins. The okra really just overshadowed everything. I loved the flavor of the Cajun sauce in the shrimp Poboy, but it was just was too salty. The shrimp on the poboy were tiny and lukewarm at best. The bun was tough and chewy, almost like a Cortazzo roll from Louisiana, just not my thing. Also sampled the steamed shrimp wrap, same sauce also shrimp were lukewarm. When I think steamed shrimp on anything, I think fresh large and hot gulf coast shrimp, not tiny thumbnail size shrimp barely warm. I want to give it another try in case this was just an off day for the steamed shrimp.

Did notice only one refill for tea mentioned on menu, I didn't test that but would have been a little bent if I was charged for excessive refills on tea. It's not much to provide an extra glass particularly when it is priced as the highest profit item on the menu. All in all a nice dinner with the Mrs and leftovers for lunch.
