Fast friendly service, nice ambiance and decor, and great food. I very much enjoyed the crab stuffed jalapeños appetizer, and the fish and shrimp entree was very very good. The thin and crispy breading was perfect, with all of the texture you want and not too much flour and/or cornmeal to cover up the delicious seafood. Bonus points for the delicious homemade slaw. My two guests both had burgers, and they looked completely amazing. My food was great and I was still jealous. Will return next time I'm in the area. One small request. Please add a few more sides that would pair well with your grilled seafood option.

We were greeted with a smile and seated promptly as an area was reserved for our party of 15. Our Waitress was "Ashley"!

Ashley had a great attitude and was super in every aspect of her job and with everything she did. As with anything in life, her ability to effectively communicate with her Customers was Stellar.

Her poise, superb ability to communicate effectively and a Wonderful attitude made our stay a memorable one. Mistakes NONE! Complaints; some steaks had gristle on them. Really! That was a very minor issue and all agreed that it did not curb our appetite or spoil our celebration. The food was good to very good and accompanying condiments for everyone came in a quick and timely manner. Our party highly recommends this Restaurant and we keep coming back!

The salads were good and fresh. The only complaint was they only gave a tiny bit of salad dressing so order extra if ordering to go. Overall it was great!! Maybe a little pricey, but for the amount of food we got it was okay. Oh we also had fried mozzarella sticks and a cake. Both were delish!!

The Food: Almost everything on the buffet line was sitting out stone cold. The Pests: There were flies everywhere, buzzing all around the food. Just sitting on the deserts. The Disgusting Surprise: It got worse when my son looked down and found a fly right inside his sweet and sour sauce. Spoiled Seafood: The crawfish were completely black on the inside and smelled off. Needless to say, my family and I only took a single bite before we couldn't stomach any more. Despite the fact that the food was completely inedible and a clear health hazard, management still had us pay full price. I would absolutely NOT recommend this place to anyone. It honestly needs to be shut down by the health department until they can get it together. Save your money and your stomach and go somewhere else!

We got three ($17) lunch specials in total. I had the orange chicken and fried rice. It was bad, and the same thing from Panda Express would've been cheaper and tasted better. The egg drop soup that cane with the specials weren't great either. We also got the $17 Pad Thai, which had no heat, no flavor, and the server didn't even ask for the spice level. The $17 fried rice lunch special similarly had no flavor whatsoever. The fish of the day (Pad Prik King) was advertised as $25 on the menu, but it was $30 when we asked (flounder). I don't think there are any real ratings for this restaurant. Don't go here.
