***Suspected food poisoning***Placed “create your own” pickup order via DoorDash of scallops, sausage, potatoes, medium seasoning.First, why the attitude from the young lady behind the bar handing out orders? Weird, unnecessary, and an immediate turnoff. Strike 1.Open container to eat, food is swimming in grease, with some heavy red seasoning all over everything. Poor visual presentation. Strike 2.Eat or try to. Potatoes are not completely cooked through and haven’t been de-eyed (eww), the “sauce/seasoning” is spicy and sweet (?!), nothing has flavor like a traditional boil usually has. Scallops and sausage were passable.Fast forward to today. I woke up nauseated and I’ve been sick to my stomach all day. Threw up once, but still feeling ill. Strike 3.This is what I get for cheating on the seafood place in Clayton. As others said, tried to support local, but this was a 1 and done.

Catfish is not CATFISH although you may ask and be told it is…..I ordered it and couldn’t eat it.. it was too white and something not right about it besides being rubbery! The shrimp were rubbery also.Folk you got to top eating at these places that cater to you cause they are feeding you literally garbage

I ordered the supreme seafood meal for lunch. The staff was polite and professional. My fish was slightly over cooked and was not seasoned. The were three filet in the container. The macaroni and cheese was stiff and lacked flavor. I believe there is potential in the restaurant but I was not impressed with the lack of flavor in the macaroni and with the over cooked and under seasoned fish. In fairness it was during the lunch rush hour when I ordered my food to go.Wheelchair accessibility: There is wheelchair accessibility for the restaurant.

10/10! Best place for large portions of shrimp and crab legs locally in my opinion!

Erica Rook

10/10 Overall, great experience! The sauce is definitely amazing! If you are in the area give it a try! The crab legs were jumbo and crawfish were so good.

This was by far one of the best seafood restaurants I’ve eaten at. The food was great. My husband and I had the low country boil and it was delicious. The service was great as well. Our sever made sure we had everything we needed and returned a few times during dinner. They were playing a variety of music that we both enjoyed. This will definitely be a honey hole for us when we want seafood.

This place is a joke!!! I ordered the Seafood basket and a sweet tea. I was very disappointed when it was brought to my table. I had two very small fish fillets and slaw and corn on the cob. I told them to take it back that I wasn’t paying that high price for little bit of food. Also tea was not any good I probably drank 2-3 sips. Asian man I’m guessing he was the owner asked if everything was ok. I explained the situation He also threatened to call police on me if I didn’t pay for the tea that I was not happy with. This place was a big NO for me!!! I went to a real Seafood restaurant… Mayflower and got my money’s worth and it was delicious.

Great little place with delicious food. My husband and I shared a basket of catfish, oysters and shrimp with green beans and cole slaw. Very sweet and efficient waitress. Will be back!

Don’t bother - make the drive to Clayton where they actually value your business. Came here to order to go because their phone line was taken off the hook so you can’t call in. The only online option is DoorDash which has higher prices than the menu even if you are picking up. Upon walking in the hostess asked if I’m ordering to go I said yes and she just walks away to the bar - assuming I’m supposed to follow her to order I do bc she said nothing - should have been my first alert. So I order pay and go sit down. After awhile I see an order in Togo containers just sitting at the bar where I ordered. I see this same waitress look at me several times, her and several other employees even look at the food make a statement then continue doing everything else. She finally comes over and asks if my order was under name xyz. This place was not busy at all. I said yes and ask if it was still waiting she says I think I have it. So I follow her over and she starts bagging it and I mention it’s been sitting there 10 mins she goes oh it’s still hot. Just sorry. It’s ridiculous the lack of service present here. I will not be back and will not recommend anyone else to go here either. Oh and to make situation better the prices on the menu online aren’t the same as the prices on the menu at the restaurant. The actual food isn’t worth the hassle either. Why is all the seasoning just sitting on top of the seafood? It should be mixed around and throughout.
