If you're looking for solid, unpretentious fresh seafood , this is the place. Sit outside on the deck and enjoy the views of the marina . Delicious boiled shrimp , crab & oysters .

Melissa Poling

Chargrilled oysters were so good and the fried Calamari was delicious. Joshua took care of us with plenty of drink refills and great tips about places to visit during our NOLA trip.

We’ve been here many times and have always enjoyed the experience. Last night was an exception. It took an hour, alone, to get the appetizer . The sautéed crab appetizer was $25!! The price was MKT.

The band Redline. Makes everything better; the food, the atmosphere, the sunsets !. Plays most every Sunday evening.

Boiles seafood spice mix is on point! Corn & potatoes come with boiled order...not as an extra side. Lively view of harbor .
