- JBJoshua BallardJan 4, 20265.0Great food and incredible service after a day of waking Myrtle Beach!
- CBChristopher BarefootDec 23, 20253.0It hasn't been the same since the started with the plastic bag crap.. Ordered the queens, and I got a busted up pile of legs.. Last couple trips have been disappointing... I hate because this was always a special treat.
- PHPatricia HandDec 20, 20255.0Been multiple times, severed by Aaron he was magnificent, and keep checking on us. Couldn't ask for better service. Food was wonderful as always. Really enjoy this place.
- KHKatherine HowardDec 18, 20251.0If I could give this 0 stars I would. Most pathetic crab legs crusted I’ve ever seen. Over cooked meat stuck to the shell. 45.99 didn’t even fill a normal dinner plate and we both left still hungry?! Crazy to me. I would never go back. Drinks weak all watered down and juice. My partners chicken tenders were child’s side partition. I get its off season for y'all as far as people go but damn. First bad food place we have been since being down here. 0/10 will never go back.
- UFUK Fan FavoriteDec 18, 20255.0The food is really good here. The seasoning is on point, and not overpowering. The Shrimp peel and eat, with Cajun seasoning was highly tasteful. I would recommend trying these nice size 1/2 pound and 1-pound shrimp dishes out. Try all of their other food choices and options on their menu, as they to are well worth trying. The service we received was above good. The bar girl was of good spirit, respectful, and very friendly with all of us customers that were present during our eat-in time there. Definitely a great place, and environment to go for great food.
