My partner and I LOVE this place. We go for a lot of our special occasions as it’s a bit of a splurge price-wise. We’ve always done take out and it’s been fantastic – people complaining about lack of flavor/sauce simply ordered the wrong one for their preference. We always get the Boiling Special, Spicy, and have never been disappointed. So full of spice and flavor, and portions (we get Shrimp Head On and Green Mussels) are huge. The lunch deal is also a great option if you can pick up before 3pm.

Got take out tonight for dinner. First time here and when I got my food it smelt like heaven! And omg was it. Only thing I wish was a bit more for what I paid for the feast, but inflation sucks and I know stuff is expensive and got cut down on some things. But overall best seafood boil I have had in a long time. Thank you guys for amazing food! And to think the only way I found out about you guys is because someone on tiktok reviewed you guys. So I said I must try!! Oh! And Smoothies were 100/10

Cool spot. Food was descent and reasonably priced. Hapoy Hour specials were good. A group of us had dinner while in town for an event. Nothing bad, Nothing super special, service was fair. Overall I would eat here again if I was in town. (I had the build your own crab bag and Cajun wings)

I had the headless shrimp boil with a side of garlic bread. Great experience. It happened to be my birthday and and treated fantastic. My friend had the fried shrimp with cajun fries. I tasted, it was good, but was glad I went with the boil. Will return for special events. Not a cheap meal but worth it for occasional seafood treat.

This place is awesome. As a food critic, seafood is my favorite of all. Living in MN, seafood can be very expensive and the prices here were not bad, at all. The seafood was a little overcooked, but oh goodness, it was seasoned so well it was worth the lookover. The boys working the counter were relaxed, cool, and respectful. I appreciate the experience and I will be back with friends and family. Overall a good experience.

I just LOVE their seafood boils!! SO delicious! If to critique anything, it would be their parking situation. Parking was a little hard to find. But once I did, everything else was great. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for good seafood boils.

I used to LOVE this place! Their house seasoning is fantastic! I went last night with my husband and we drive from Big Lake (50 minutes). We each got the feast that’s $53.99. Figured we might as well splurge since we come once or twice a year. What came out had great flavor but NOT worth $54. We each had 1 corn, 1 potato, 8 shrimp, a small cluster of legs and one king crab leg. Again, great flavor but portion wise, not worth it. I knew costs wouldn’t go up due to COVID, which we were fine to pay. But I expected the same portions.

My first time in Minneapolis and decided to give some seafood a try. This place was close to me. I spent about 10 mins trying to find parking. I went around 2pm, so it wasn’t busy at all. Our food came out really fast. The food was flavorful. The corn needs to be cooked longer. It was hard. I only ordered their boiled food. The lady taking orders was very nice and respectful. You order your food, pay, and then go sit anywhere you want to if you’re dining in.

I should start my review of this place by saying that I have lived in Texas for the last 7+ years and have consistently traveled to New Orleans so my palate and standards for Cajun food are a bit skewed. I came here in a Monday afternoon with 3 friends. The wait staff was incredibly attentive and friendly. There was only one party here so there was no wait. Our drinks came pretty quickly. They were all very tasty and worth ordering again.

Got the catfish, hush puppies, Cajun fries, and beignets and every single food item we tried, we immediately went “oh my god” afterwards. They know how to fry food, that’s for damn sure! And the fries were delicious. Wish the beignets came in bigger sizes because my god were they delicious. All in all a great experience, we’ll definitely come back again and again. Husband said “if I’m ever sad just get me these fries” so I think that is a glowing review.
