If you want to eat crawfish, this place has very delicious sauce and the price is a bit high, around $30-100. The space is very large and there is a lot of parking but the service is a bit poor

We got the combo with 2lb shrimp and 1lb clams with the house special sauce, rice, and cajun fries on the side. The price was right!! Significantly less expensive than Boiling Crab and Kickin Crab. The fries were great. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We loved the big chunky pieces of garlic in the house special sauce. We got medium spice cause I chickened out of trying the spicy level but I think next time I'll get the spicy level. The only thing I can say negatively is that they may want to cook the shrimp a bit less so that the shells don't stick when peeling. But over all, so so good!

Found this place nestled in a little plaza close to my bfs house. We were surprised to find a seafood boil place so close! We were happy to find that they had fresh crawfish and relatively similar prices to other places around the area Upon walking in, there were only a couple other people there so we got seated right as we got through the door. At the table, they lay out the butcher paper, give you gloves and a bib, as well as a paper plate + lemon & pepper. Not a lot of paper towels and tissues. We ordered the combo #3 (medium spice, house special sauce), which was 2lb freawfudt, 1 lb shrimp? 2 corns and 2 potato, 4 piece sausage. We also got Cajun fries. The fries got there first and we had a few bites before the seafood came out. The crawfish were pretty big, I was able to get s little meat from their claws. Not super worth to get the claw meat, but can try. The shrimp and crawfish were cooked well and had a nice bite to it. The sauce was delicious. I enjoyed it a lot -- had chunks of garlic and such but still saucy. It was flavorful and not toooo oily and had a sweet savory taste. The medium was not spicy , and this is coming from someone who can't handle spicy stuff too much. The potatoes were enough per person. Small potato. The sausage was not a sausage but it was like a hot dog quality. I've had better but next time the sausage not worth getting. This was good enough for the both of us. We finished the combo but we only finished about half the fries We were so stuffed by the end of dinner There are two bathrooms but the sinks are inside, so if you only want to wash your hands, you still have to go in. Overall would definitely come here again! Delicious

Hands down one of the best Cajun style seafood spots! The house secret sauce is what I got and they know how to do spicy levels! This place was absolutely delicious and will be coming back sometime soon
