Loved it!!! Ordered the Cajun Shrimp Spicy. Was the most flavourful meal! At first I was a little surprised at eating with gloves and a bib ????, but enjoyed the food so much, we went back again the next day before we left town!
If you like Cajun spicy food, you’ll love it.
Checked out this new seafood spot in town and I must say I was a bit disappointed. This is mostly due to poor menu naming for a couple items (re:Catfish dinner is not Catfish and Gumbo soup is not really Gumbo).
I went with a party and most everyone really enjoyed there seafood (Mussels, shrimp, and crab were gotten). I tried them all and it was good. Definitely recommend the Cajun seasoning over the House blend choice for more flavor and kick.
I had the "Fried Catfish" which was really just Haddock (a standard white fish offering at most Buffalo/WNY restaurants). It came with well-seasoned fries. Overall the meal was good, but the portions left something to be desired. For the the same price, you can get better Fish Fry elsewhere ($12).
The shrimp and mussels I tried were delicious thorough, which bumps this review up to a 4 vs. 3 star one for me.
I also had the hush puppies (good), which came with ranch dressing (strange).
This atmosphere/vibe for the spot is still being discovered as this is a new spot and wait times were great so hopefully things will continue to improve with time, including some menu changes to better reflect offerings.
Love the concept! This is definitely one of the best seafood restaurants in Buffalo. We ordered fried wings, hush puppies, crab sticks, and the super seafood combo.. everything tasted fresh and delicious (I highly recommend the boiling special sauce). Our server was extremely knowledgeable and attentive as well. We can't wait to go back! ????
Amazingly delicious seafood. They have a setup where you get the seafood in a bag, with your choice of sauce and spice. So far I've had two of their sauces with, respectively, snow crab and a lobster tail. Probably the best I've had of both. Very friendly service and a nice casual, welcoming ambiance. The appetizers are hearty and delicious and make a great complement to your meal.
Of course there are also regular sorts of favorites to round out your menu. They have a lot of the standbys of fried seafood (fried fish and shrimp, calamari, etc.) and all are delicious. It's a great place, give them a visit!
