    The Henny colada was a 10/10. Went on a Saturday live Dj although kind of loud was an added vibe to this place. The service was amazing. I got the Deep ocean for 1 58$ definitely NOT worth the price could have been a 25/30$ price. The food portions do not add up. It’s a cute place for a simple outing.

    I recently placed a seafood boil order and I ordered the spice level at a medium. When I received my to go order, the seafood bag was full of oil, the shrimp was stale as sitting there then reheated up in a microwave, and the food was extremely spicy. The food I received was inedible. This place is way too EXPENSIVE to be messing up on customer's orders.

    This place has potential. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone outside of a 7 block radius unless they up their game. Management needs to train the servers in hospitality. Management also needs to stop skimping on quality to save a dime. These changes can bring a lot more customers and increase their sustainably. I do not see this restaurant lasting long as it isn’t worth traveling to but an okay option if you’re within walking distance. Pros Food was good $45 is a good price but you literally pay for what you get which isn’t much Atmosphere was lively before the DJ arrived Cons Waitress never introduced herself, just came to the table and said, “y’all ready to order?” It took a span of 30 minutes for each “all you can eat” order. Wait time for servers to even acknowledge you and the time for the food to get to you. If you order crab legs, they give you one cluster at a time. So 3 clusters max for “all you can eat” because of the 90 minute rule. DJ made the mood sleepy with the Usher and Ciara playlist You may need to ask for napkins, bibs and extra gloves The vibe darkens into a nightclub ambiance which may not be ideal for some while eating The drinks were HORRIBLE. Watered down and sugary. Yuck!!! Gratuity is already added to your bill so you’ll still need to pay for bad service.
