They have good service, the staff is attentive to the diners but a little excessive and they feel pressured, the price is a bit high for the amount of food, 1 crab costs 32 dollars per pound, I paid 57.60 for 1 single crab ?, how experience is ok ?

The food is good as always.After trying some bland gumbo at a different restaurant I was craving the gumbo here. I got (1lb of shrimp, corn, sausage), gumbo, 2x rice, and chicken tenders basket. All for less than $50 for 2 people. I have only tried a few other similar places, but this is by far my favorite. It is always packed, has good food, and service. Make sure you make a reservation ahead.
