I've had a lot of seafood boils, but this one by far has been the best. From the freshness of the seafood to the sauce. Then even have lunch specials! Mines was $26 for one pound of crab, half of pound of shrimp (head off) I choose the sauce option that consists of all sauces mixed together. 10/10 I took my order to go and enjoyed it as if I dined in to eat it. They also have HH which of course is a plus for me! I highly recommend giving this place a try.

I saw good reviews on Yelp so we decided to go. This place is small. If you come, be prepared becagee it's small. We were seated and ordered our drinks. I had the usual unsweetened ice tea and hubs had a Long Island Iced Tea. They bith were good. Hubs ordered basically shrimp on shrimp on shrimp with corn and hard boiled eggs. I had the #7 and mixed the seasonings. It was really good! So much seasoning and it was so good. I'm sure we'll be back.

I am giving this restaurant a 4 because my husband said the shrimp are better than Red Lobster and as good as the fresh shrimp from the Alabama coast restaurants he has ate at. I do not eat sea food therefore the only choices for me are chicken strips or chicken nuggets. Therefore I have tried both and neither one are very good here. I think they over cook the chicken strips, they are usually very crunchy and tough. Since a majority of the people order seafood here they do not buy quality chicken strips or nuggets, is my assumption . I'm sure mostly kids order these and do not seem to mind. Although I feel little children would have a tough time eating the really crunchy strips. They do have good sweet potato fries though. My husband wishes the had coleslaw for a side. The wait staff is friendly and the place seems clean. I did not base the stars on my experience because it is a seafood restaurant and I have heard other people say the enjoyed the catfish and the shrimp boil there.

AMAZING! I'm an east-coast guy living in the Midwest who's been looking for a great place for fresh seafood (sorry Red Lobster) for over 6 years. This diamond in the rough exceeded my expectations. While the majority of the US can't even find a place that serves King Crab (due to supply and demand escalated cost), I found a place that not only has it but has it at a very reasonable price. I had 1/2 lb King Crab, 1/2 lb Snow Crab, and 1/2 lb of shrimp. We must have been there for over an hour while I picked out every piece of crab meat. The way the dish came out was neat (I won't ruin the surprise). I also highly recommend the sweet potato fries. I would give this place a 6 out of 5 stars!

The food here is really fresh and flavorful. The service is super friendly albeit a little slow - I have to assume that is because everything is steamed fresh. We've been a few times and the food is always consistent. You can vary the flavor and spice level to your choosing. We only ever get the mild Cajun (my children love it). The boil bag is brought to your table where you open it and release all the steam. I am terrible at eating crab legs so it would be nice for someone to offer to show us how but that hasn't happened.

We love Red Crab Boils Mussels. The serving is large and we love the flavor. You can choose spicy or not. Fast service if you do take out - order in advance and pick up and the people are always friendly. Definitely will go back for more.
