| - This review is based more on the headache this place gave me than the food.
I knew it would be busy because I can see the restaurant from my condo. I made reservations over 3 weeks in advance for 12 people for Boxing Day. They said they would call me the week of just to confirm again.
The week of my reservation came around and I didn't receive a call. Having no faith in people being able to do their job, I called them on Christmas Eve to make sure my reservation was still okay for the Saturday. They said there was no such reservation under my name. They took my reservation again and I hoped it would stick this time.
Saturday comes around (the day of my reservation) and they call me around 3pm to confirm my party for 7pm. I called no more than 10 minutes later to change it to 8pm with no issues. I made sure to get the guy's name just in case they lost my reservation again. I won't throw him under the bus here though lol
We arrived at 7:45pm for our 8pm table as requested, only to find out that he didn't actually change the reservation to 8pm and gave the table away. The hostess asked us to wait 10-15 minutes for them to move tables around to make space for my party. It took more like an hour.
I make reservations because I'm not the type of person who will wait more than 10 minutes for restaurant lineups, no matter how good people say it is. I get hangry! My friends and I had to wander into Hmart and pretend to look at makeup to keep warm because there was no space to wait inside. the lineup in the restaurant was going up the stairs and next to people eating beside the entrance. I would hate to have people hovering around me while I'm gorging.
Anyways we finally got a table upstairs. Food arrived quickly except for the lobster which took awhile. They screwed up my sauce twice, but being so hungry, I just ate it anyways. I had to ask three times for ice even though I first ordered it with my drink.
Clams, shrimp, lobster, and cajun fried rice were plenty for two people. Captain's boil sauce was delish, but really heavy. You'll have garlic breath, but I love extra garlic so no shame here.
It's fun for the novelty, but pricey for what it is. I probably wouldn't go there again just because of the ordeal it took to make a reservation and get a table.
Oh yeah, no crawfish (not in season). And dungess crab was sold out on a Saturday.
Good luck!!
