"I'm giving it five stars bc you order the food and the lady who serves us leave us alone. You're completely able to eat in peace by yourself, there's a whole roll of paper towels on the table. She brings the paper plates and it comes with a bib, forks, and extra napkins. I also passed by this establishment for the past four years and never came in here until today cause I think it's finally time LOL. The price are expensive but worth it for the sauce and seafood meaty quality. Fried calamari was very crunchy, and mostly tentacles. Not bad 3/5 The seafood bag sauce is so good. Not over salty, i really enjoyed it. It wasn't a lot of sauce, but good enough to dip. The seafood is meaty, and came with a lot! Not skimpy. They didn't give us potatoes tho. Only One or two corn in the bag.. But I added broccoli to mine so I was already happy. Atmosphere really is dead, non existent ngl. We came in, the tv is Off, no music or anything. We were the only customer hahaha, i thought they were not doing dine in at first. But then right after us, another table came in. So i dont mind it tbh. Just be prepared to eat seafood and then leave lol. Bathroom is nice too. Spacious and has soap, and even an automatic paper towel thingie."

I had the lobster tail and shrimp chowder, and both were delicious. This restaurant is a great option for what it offers in the area. Additionally, if you’re just after an affordable meal, you can get a generous portion of fried rice to take away! View menu

The food was incredibly tasty, and I tried the seafood boil, which was awesome. However, the staff wasn't very friendly; they didn't offer any additional items to purchase or suggest anything to add to my order. It felt a bit lacking in customer service.

I visited this restaurant to celebrate my birthday over the weekend, and it was fantastic! I’m a big fan of seafood, and the prices were very reasonable. The waitress was extremely friendly and attentive, frequently checking in on us. I had a wonderful time with my friends, and we all wholeheartedly recommend this place and would love to come back again.

I’m giving this place a five-star rating because the shrimp was large and meaty, and the mussels my partner ordered were enormous and fresh. The sauces were delicious and not overly salty, and the fried calamari was crispy and mostly tentacles, which I thought was great. The broccoli was also sizable and crunchy. Prices are a bit higher compared to other seafood boil spots in the area, but the quality of the food is well worth it. Additionally, the bathroom was spacious, equipped with soap and an automatic paper towel dispenser. Overall, a great experience! View menu

Been ignoring this place for the longest but today is finally the day I step inside and eat.I ignored it bc I never knew what they were about and wasn’t introduced to seafood boil bags until a year or so ago.It was dead silent inside, tv was off, no music. But I didn’t mind bc the lady got our order and gave us paper plates w bib napkin and forks. There was also a whole roll of paper towels on the table. So eating in peace wasnt a big issue for me.I’m giving it five stars bc The shrimp was big and meaty, and the mussels my man got was huge and fresh. Sauces were also very good, not overly salty, and the fried calamari was crunchy and mostly tentacles. Not bad. The broccoli was also huge and...

If there was a choice, I would never give it even one star. Worst experience ever. I have been there as a local customer for around 5 years. My family was here today, and even though, there was only two tables they are serving including my family). We had to wait an hour and more for other order. We do not know what the kitchen or the waitress was doing. When we first came in, they had no phone calls and delivery orders. After an hour when phone calls and delivery orders came in, they started to do every order all together. The waitress had an very bad attitude and ignored us when we called her. Most of all, I do not know how they pass their sanitary ratings. The tables are oily and full of...

"When we called to reserve a table, no one informed us that there was a dining time limit of 1.5 hours. My friend wanted to invite more people to join us for dinner, but I was unsure if everyone would agree to the minimum charge of $60, including taxes and tips. I confirmed a reservation for 7 people during my second call, but ultimately, only 6 of us showed up. The table we were given was quite small, making it uncomfortable for six people, especially with the mandatory minimum spending of $60, as well as a 20% tip. For just two people, the minimum tip is 18%. I was confused about the dining time limit—was it two hours or 1.5? The party area was limited to just the backyard for additional seating. I was with friends who didn’t know the group well, and we arrived early at 3 PM, but we couldn’t wait until 6:30 PM. That’s why we ended up sitting at a separate table for two. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t seem to care and couldn’t arrange for us to be seated closer together. We had no choice in the matter. To make matters worse, the female waiter had a poor attitude. It felt like we were dining in a sidewalk market. She questioned another girl who served me ponzu sauce, apparently because I looked impatient when I saw her face. Her attitude only worsened after that. It seems like they need to train their employees better, as they seem unaware of how to provide good service. As for the food, it was just okay, typical of basic Japanese cuisine. There were too many restrictions! Customers are forced to adhere to the restaurant’s rules and limitations. I cannot recommend this place unless someone is specifically looking for a fast-food experience. In short, I don’t think I’ll be returning next time."
