Shrimp Laya was also super good. Shrimp and sausage done jumbalaya style over pasta instead of rice . Peppers , onions and mushrooms gave it a good slightly spicy taste . Do wish the sauce was thicker.

Great food & fun atmosphere ! Have to try the mussels & mason jar margaritas ! And hey, you get to keep the mason jar :)

Don't forget to ask your waiter about donating to the no kid hungry foundation in exchange for a joes coupon! For every dollar donated.. Joes will match it! Save hungry kids and money on food!

If you're here during the day and Chris is working, know you're getting the best server in the city . My tip? Leave a good one... He earned it!

William Adams

Crab cakes were very good with little/no filler. Closest to a Maryland crab cakes I've had.

Category 5 hurricane! The bomb! Ask for Brandon! Best attentive waiter !

Miranda Lewis

My coconut shrimp wasn't too bad but the crab cakes , lobster , and margaritas were all disappointing. Our server was an over-sharer and was overall unpleasant.

$8.49 Mason Jar Maragaritas! Amazing! Also tried the Sweet Tea one but it was too lemony. Ask for Katie!

Tiffany Cartier

$19.99 Snow Crab bucket! Yum! Try a steampot too..anywhere from $20 to $40. Deals if there's two people sharing.

Had OK fish& shrimp . Mediocre service. Really not worth the price and headache of being downtown. Won't be going back.

Tasteless lobster , tasteless beer , tasteless everything else. Do not go to this place

Rick Dixon

Food takes forever to come, then it comes out cold.

Wendy Löu Whö

The service always sucks here. & the food is way overpriced for what it tastes like. Save your money and go to red lobster .
