The food is good but it's expensive!!! This is 2 lbs of shrimp, 1 sausage link, 2 orders of potatoes and 2 orders of corn. Shrimp is $16 a lb, sausage is $6 a link, potatoes are $2.50 for 3 pieces and corn is $1.75 for HALF a corn!!! This is with the whole shabang seasoning. Ordered it to go and it was ready really fast. The staff is friendly. The parking lot is a nightmare but we went at 4 pm on a Thursday so there were not too many people there. You have to get the food home and open it before it over cooks in the bag. So if you live too far away, you're better off eating here.
Have an hour to waste? Look no further. This is the spot. I have no idea how good the food is. Went in an hour before closing, ordered crab fries to go. I was told that i would receive a text when my food was ready, and I never received this text. Waited 40 minutes until the guy who took my order noticed that I hadn't picked up my food, I guess he forgot to send the text. The food was cold. He did apologize and offered to have them remade, but they had already closed the kitchen, so I just took the refund. Management didn't say anything or apologize for the inconvenience. The inside of the place looked nice, so that's a plus, and had sports on the tvs. 1 tip I can give is that if you're going to order to go here, order 2 hours before closing, just in case.
Great service ???? ‼️ Shrimp was not at 100%. The location was packed. I love the way the team coordinates, and everyone worked as a team. Everyone jumps to help each other, and I could literally see the lovely community work environments they have. I expected more. The shrimp was not cooked correctly it was mushy ????.
