A must visit seafood restaurant!! Over a year ago my husband and I passed by on the way to Texas but unfortunately it wasn’t open yet and we were in a hurry to our destination. This time we made sure to stop and waited an hour until opening and it was SO worth it!! I ordered the royal reds and my husband ordered crawfish with sausage and mushrooms. Both of our plates were DELICIOUS! Every component on my plate (potatoes, sausage, corn, and shrimp) was cooked to perfection. The garlic butter is a must try!! The crawfish were so tender that peeling the tails was a breeze. Our waitress Ariel was great and very kind and patient while we decided on what to order. We’re definitely sharing this restaurant with all friends and family. We will definitely be back!

Service was excellent as well as the food. My server was spot on and didn't miss a beat. Food arrived in the right amount of time and was not only great but piping hot. So, I will update a little over six weeks, and I am back. Tonight had the 16oz rib eye house salad and for appetizer the bayou bread. Everything was excellent and flavored perfectly. The salad was definitely fresh, and the bayou bread was a delightful surprise. Again, the server was spot on and attentive. Definitely a place to come to for a great meal.

The food was very hot and fresh. Being that we are in Lent, the restaurant can be busy and loud. The restaurant is pretty big. Has a private area for larger events. Staff is very kind. First time visit and WILL go back again!!

We loved our visit here! The atmosphere is lively, open, and warm. Service was great! Food was awesome! Party of 4. We got the onion rings and they were delish! Then 2 of us got a boil with snow crab, shrimp, and dungeness crab. So so good! 1 got gumbo and a crab cake and loved it. The other person got the BBQ shrimp stuffed baked potato. She loved it. 3 of us added side salads and they were cold, crisp, and delicious. Very pleased with our experience!

This was a good adventure for seafood! Enjoyed onion rings for an appetizer comes with swap sauce. Also got crab au gratin this came with a side, we selected crab boil potatoes. These are boil then battered and fried, these were great. Then my sidekick and I enjoyed the half and half, shrimp and catfish with a side of Mac and cheese. All of the food was seasoned perfectly. The cocktail sauce could used some work but the tartar sauce is very good. The staff did not seem very engaging and atmosphere was bland

The wife and myself are here for the first time today. And truely very impressed! The onion rings are cooked to perfection. She got the fried shrimp platter with fries and I got the half and half platter( fried shrimp and catfish) with the boiled then fried potatoes. — these are so gooddd!!! The food ratio is more than a serving in our book! The cheesecake (from which I didn’t take a pic of) was so delicious! We will definitely make the drive from Lacombe back to here many more times to come! And the market has a good selection as well. We got some redfish filets.
