    Best fried shrimp in town. Ceviche, crab pops, and boiled shrimp are fantastic.

    The food was ok, nothing to write home about. The service was as good as the food. Everyone was nice enough when we were able to get their attention but it seemed a lot like a self-service type of food establishment. We had reservations but were sat outside on the bar patio where no one waited on us. There was an outside band playing which was nice. We had to place out order at the bar and had no server to check on us, so if we needed anything during our meal we had to go up to the bar wait in line, and ask, same to pay.

    Incredibly happy with the service and food. Party of 2 & we started with bloody Marias & boudin balls which were sooo good! We both ordered crab legs that were DELICIOUS! Will definitely be back for more.

    Nine happy customer’s. We tried this place on Father’s Day and were very pleased. Bacon wrapped shrimp, ceviche & fried pickles were great appetizers. The michelada’s were quality. Half of the group put down the crawfish/crab leg/shrimp boil. The sautéed shrimp and the shrimp & grits were “New Orleans” good. I’m not a seafood person when it’s fishy. It was clean and very enjoyable here. The beignets were a good finisher and good things were said about the key lime pie.

    The crawfish were good. But the rest of our food was blah. Our table was never pre-bused, so empty plates and glasses were piled up. Also, probably not the best place to go if you want to have a conversation at your meal. Very loud.

    I love this place! The food is consistently even better than expected. I am fussy about my shrimp and grits and this is by far the best in town. Pretty much anything here is great. They also have outstanding live bands on their shaded patio.
