The food was hot. First time ordering and trying this spot out. I was expecting the shrimp to be more thoroughly cleaned and better cut off of the head, especially since having to pay extra. I got all sauces and paid extra; the flavoring was okay, but was hoping for more cajun and kick to the spice level (medium). The snow crab legs were all broken off, in smaller pieces, which I’ve never seen or experienced before.. definitely doesn't look like the advertised picture. Sausage was ok but not spicy as hoped. Corn was good, got an extra. Potato was good, slightly overcooked/old on one but appreciated the extra. Was hoping to get a bib/gloves/napkins, guess it has to be requested? Though I indicated napkins, etc. for the order. Overall decent, but not the best crab boil I’ve ever had, especially for the price.

I wish i could leave 0 stars. For the price you would expect the food to be taste great. I’ve only ordered this once but I will definitely no get it again. The shrimp was really over cooked and it was all drowning in the sauce. It wasn’t very saucy it was more like a soup. I only ate the sausages and left the rest. Definitely not worth the money. The side of rice was half full and mushy in the container also, which is sad since we paid for extra.

Really wanted to like this place but sadly it'll be a pass for us. White Shrimp sauce was very watery and bland, not much flavor nor kick/spiciness. Fried Soft Shell Crab was ok but the fries were all soggy, cold and not edible. Garlic Noodle was the best of the bunch but nothing too special either. Very disappointing given the price.

The sauce was much thinner and more watery than I'm used to. There's still flavor, and tons of garlic and salt, but it's light on the cajun seasoning and the explosive spice is definitly more mild-medium. The shrimp isn't great quality (thick and full digestive tracts) but it does the job.
