| - Needs work, a lot of work. The atmosphere here is fine, and relatively upgraded to other crab boils. Big, spacious area with a lot of seating. Service was courteous and timely. No where to easily wash your hands after getting messy from such an involved meal - gotta go to the bathroom.
They have been open a few weeks now, but, they don't serve alcohol yet.
I had a pound of shrimp and pound of king crab in a mild, all three sauce, combination. Added corn and andouille sausage. Add ons for any of the bags are 2 dollars a pop. A little disappointing - corn is 5 ears for 2 bucks at the grocery store, come on!
The meat was cooked perfectly. The sauce was awful. First of all, the base seemed not have butter, it is some other oil. Spices were absolutely off. I tasted no Cajun, lemon, or pepper. I think there was even some asian influence playing a role in the sauce - that is okay if it is, but, please call it what it is if you are going to change up the recipe. Though the meat was cooked perfectly, multiple dips into the sauce made me lose morale and hope that my spot would be hit. Every bite made me feel more and more nauseated. At a place like this, people really are searching for that flavor explosion - you wont get that here, sorry.
This restaurant is still in their infancy. I think the smartest thing they could do at this time is fix their sauces while there is a chance for revival.
