    I definitely enjoyed the seafood boil with snow crab legs and shrimp. The cajun seasoning mix was really great! Small space, so make reservations if possible.

    Terrible, la peor experiencia de cómoda estilo Louisiana en New York, la “manager” es una china coreana, oriental o no se de donde súper grosera prepotente y altanera, la pasamos muy mal, nunca había recibido un trato así. Te obligan a elegir lo que ellos quieren y altanera final quieren que dejes la propina como si fuera el mejor lugar, no es, no vayan.

    I ordered the lobster and head off shrimp, with cajun sauce which was delicious 😋. The tables where a bit small which resulted in me knocking water off and getting the couple next to me a little bit wet. Overall it was a good night

    My mom and I had a great first experience here. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, especially for the price. The only reason I didn't rate higher is because we were never offered refills on our waters. Other than that, it was terrific!
