The food was subpar and overcooked and not worth the price. Abbey, our server, was amazing though!

I’d say it was great as the real value of a restaurant lies in the quality of food being served. The service was poor and the ambience was pretty standard. I’d definitely go back of the food or order take out based off of the service quality. Their cocktails were also pretty decent. If I’d ordered takeout, I would have rated them 5 stars. This is especially as the crawfish seasoning hit the spot and nothing on their MVP plate was a miss. That corn was divine and the alligator and taco sides were pretty good. I did think the taco tortillas were too thin though but in all, their food is definitely a 5/5.

The seafood boil seasoning was extremely too salty. The taste was ok. Our server was attentive and helpful but the system went down by the end of our dinner and we had to wait around 20 to 30 minutes to pay our bill. Overall it was just an ok experience.

Food seasoning was very bland, and for the price, there are better value places around. Also, the birthday songs get to be a bit tiresome after a while.
