| - This place is great if you're coming for boiled seafood, which seems obvious given the name, but I think I should mention this given pretty much everything else on the menu isn't that great. I tried out the po-boy which was pretty lackluster, the server basically convinced me NOT to get the entouffe, and the fried mac and cheese bites were pretty awful as well. However, the boiled seafood at this place is good enough for me to still give it 4 stars. Their spiciness scale is actually legit, we ordered the 3 out of 4 level spiciness and it was crazy spicy, which rarely happens even when they claim it to be the spiciest level. The seafood was cooked really well and came out steaming hot (believe it or not, that hasn't always been my experience at these type of restaurants). The contents of the bag were drenched in hot, spicy, buttery sauce and we proceeded to chow down, gloves and bibs prepared. The service here was better than I expected, I loved how diverse the customer base is, and the servers were very friendly. The inside of the restaurant is a bit corny, they even go so far as to put those plastic crabs on the wall, but something about it still felt cozy and relaxed. Best of all, I do think the amount of seafood you get for the price is fair. It's not a screaming deal or anything, but if you had a group of people, you could definitely chow down on seafood without breaking the bank.
