One of my girl friends convinced me to go here and I was sold once I found out that it was the same place I saw on Man V. Food. This place is in such an unsuspecting area and the parking lot a little tiny. But once you open the door the sweet smell of butter and garlic fill the room. There was a little wait which I was surprised about bc places like this in LA have an hour wait minimum!!
The food was good!! My bf and I got the Hot N Juicy Special, Spicy on shrimp. I'd get the crawfish but I was too tired to put in the effort for such a small amount of meat. We also ordered the deep fried soft shell crabs with corn & cajun fries. LOVE LOVE LOVED the soft shell crabs!! They were soo tasty and so crabby! I just wish they had more in that basket! I believe it only came with like 8 or something like that but I could have definitely went for another basket if I wasn't concerned with spending too much $$$ there. The shrimp was awesome but almost TOO spicy!! I love heart in my food but this made my lips burn so I prob could have went medium on them. But the shrimp were decently sized and cooked perfectly. I hate when shrimp are overcooked but HNJ did not disappoint in that aspect.
Great place to go if you are craving some seafood southern style! Be prepared to get down a dirty because eating with your hands is a MUST!!! Get those napkins ready..you'll be needing them =]
