| - It didn't live up to the hype for me.
My brother and I shared a lb. of medium spicy shrimp with the whole shabang sauce, a pound of medium spicy clams with the rajun cajun sauce, cajun fries, and a side of rice. We ended up spending $30, and we left the restaurant hungry.
We probably had around 20 clam shells in our bag but only about 8 had meat inside. It was quite disappointing. However, I enjoyed the bold and spicy flavor of the rajun cajun seasoning, so I poured it all over my rice. The portion of the shrimp was a bit more generous (we got about 15 pieces? for the pound), but I didn't enjoy the whole shabang seasoning (tasted like ketchup to me). And the cajun fries were way too salty.
All in all, it was just ok. I had skyrocket expectations for this place, because my friends hyped it up so much. Unfortunately, those expectations fell immensely short. But I'm sure that I will give it another try sooner or later. In the meantime, I'd rather spend a couple more bucks and pig out right across at Makino. Or feast at the Orleans buffet (they have plenty of louisiana/southern and cajun inspired food)
*Btw, did anybody count how many TVs this restaurant has?
