| - I've been three or four times now and I am impressed each time. You walk in and seat yourself anywhere you'd like. Even if you sit at the bar, you can still access the full menu and the bar stools are very cushy and comfortable! Service is always on point and they quickly come out to greet you and grab your drink or appetizer orders. They have wines like Moscato, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, and even a house wine. They also have several beer options available and other libations like the Pomegranate Mojito, Moscow Mule, or the Cucumber Martini.
Known for their oysters, they have them on the half shell and you can get them like that, with shrimp cocktail, or even as oyster shooters with your choice of Tequila or Vodka.
Specialty Oyster choices include:
Fanny Bay (British Columbia)
Smooth, Cucumber finish
Kumamoto (Washington)
Mild, sweet, fruity finish
Stellar Bay (British Columbia)
Meaty, mild
French Kiss (New Brunswick)
Briny, sweet finish
Kusshi (British Columbia)
Small, clean flavor
Blue Point (Long Island Sound)
Briny, mild flavor
I'm not an oyster fan, but many in my party were. Also on their menu were jumbo shrimp cocktail (Yum!), jumbo lump crab meat cocktail (Oh God yes!!), Manhattan or New England Clam Chowders, salads, and house favorites like Seafood Jambalaya (shrimp, crab, lobster, andouille sausage, mussels, and clams), Shrimp and Lobster Fra Diavolo (Sautéed shrimp and lobster in a spicy tomato sauce served over linguine), and even a Mediterranean Salmon (Olive oil, white wine, tomato, basil, capers, and butter).
They have Louisiana Seafood Boils and Kettle Specialties where most of my favorites are!! Dishes like Cioppino (A San Francisco seafood stew in a slightly spicy tomato sauce with fish and shellfish), House Étouffée (Shrimp, crab, and lobster cooked in a nutty seafood thickness with Cajun seasonings), Bouillabaisse (Shrimp, crab, mussels, clams, and fresh fish in a light tomato saffron broth with leeks, fennel, and herbs), New Orleans Gumbo (okra, andouille sausage and Cajun spices) comes with your choice of shrimp, crab, chicken, lobster, or the signature, which has shrimp, crab, and lobster in it. You can also choose how spicy you want it. You can pick mild, medium, or hot and also choose a number between 1-10. I usually pick level 9 for my spiciness level;) It's not Cajun unless your mouth is burning!
I really enjoy the gumbo. It is by far, my favorite dish, here and I find myself craving it as soon as my feet touch Las Vegas ground! It's hard to find a place that makes real good gumbo! The roux is thick and flavorful and the rice that they serve with it is nice and thick and chewy! If you're one of those people who don't think leftovers taste good the next day, pop yourself on the butt!! Trust me, take it home and heat it up!! This shit is even better the next day!!! All those flavors really come together!
