“ Stopped by here for lunch to try out their crawfish. We ordered medium spicy all in one spice. My mother and I really liked the crawfish. It had just enough spice and oh so garlicky buttery goodness. The size of the crawfish ranged from small to large and I think the price is less than some other places. I wouldn't mind coming back to try their other dishes and frozen margarita. You just order at the counter and they'll bring the food out to you. I thought the waitress was very nice and helpful. ”
“ I have passed this place many times since we moved to Plano, and finally had the time to give it a try. I ordered the catfish with Cajun fries. The food was very good with a little kick. The person who took my to go order was very friendly and overall it lived up to what I hoped it would be. No doubt I will be eating here more often ”

“ Amazing experience, best seafood boil we’ve ever had in Texas. We drove a couple hours to come eat here occasionally, all around incredible from the staff to the snow crab. ”
“ We had been passing the place for the last month. I decided to give the food a try. The food was ok...the only thing that I didn't care for was the hush puppies. I had expected the fries to have a kick to them since they are called cajun fries, but they taste more like the seasoned fries that you get from Wal-Mart in the freezer bag. The tarter sauce taste like seasoned mayonnaise, the fish was fried perfectly and the shrimp had more of a soft fry to them. I enjoyed the fish and shrimp. I will go back and try either a boil or po' boy. ”
“ This place has been on my to do list for awhile because of being highly recommended by friends. It didn't disappoint. Everything we ordered had flavor, just like you seasoned it at home. The fried shrimp and seafood boil were my favorites. ”
“ I’ve had their crawfish broil and now their shrimp poboy and I love the food. I’ve spent a good deal of time in New Orleans and although it can’t ever live up fully to that standard, it does a great job of it especially for North Texas. ”
