I came to New York this weekend and wanted to find some delicious seafood. So I googled this restaurant and went to there because the reviews were so good. Their spicy curry sauce is the best hoisin sauce I've ever tasted, and the snow crab and lobster I ordered were fresh. The restaurant's service was also excellent. The owner was very kind and gave us some whole crayfish to taste. Although it is February now, the crayfish is still fresh! I'm looking forward to coming back in April for seasonal crawfish, it's a great experience for me, and I highly recommended this restaurant! Go and try it!❤️❤️❤️

I just tried the seafood boil combo #3 with garlic butter sauce (medium spicy). It was very well seasoned and flavorful! The seafood was fresh and the corns & potatoes were just what I wanted it to be. Will be coming back 100%.

This place exceeded my expectations! Prices were affordable and portions good. I had the Cajun seafood box (fresh, flavorful), tofu teriyaki, green dragon roll, sweet potato roll, and honeydew slush. Inside is a bit small but seating was comfortable. No need to tip here is a plus. I’ll come back.

So I walked to this location for snow crabs, only to notice ownership and business had changed. I gave it a shot. It was really fresh and the staff were friendly. Tried their home Cajun sauce, definitely less salty (Plus for me) than others and a little more sweet. Definitely looking forward to trying my fav garlic and butter sauce next time.

The entire experience here feels well-considered. Every dish tasted good and was served properly. The place rendered me silent. I return often because service is dependably good. Despite any shortcomings, I'll return, maybe as a regular.

Me and my friends went here on Christmas for dinner and were sooo happy we did! The owner is incredibly kind and welcomed us an hour before close and even remade our togo order after one of our friends accidentally threw it away 😂 Will def be back! Food is so good, slushy drinks are so fire

We found this restaurant on google and saw it was new, decided to try it out. We ordered a set meal with lots of crab legs, crayfish, shrimp, corn, and potatoes cooked in a big pot. The food was good, came out super fast. I was very satisfied with everything that I got!

I ordered six times through Seamless from this restaurant. Never dined-in. Delivery is fast and delivery guys are friendly. Food in my opinion is delicious. Usually my go-to item is: Chicken Bento Box and for my spouse - Salmon Bento Box. Plus we adding couple of sushi rolls. Last time we got our Bento boxes and Spicy tuna roll and California roll. Both rolls suppose to come with added spicy mayo. Wishful thinking. There were no any kind of mayo was found. Is not about money (spicy mayo is 0.55 extra only, per roll), I just craved to try it with spicy mayo. But never got a chance. Still will try next time, maybe chef will read order more carefully and I get a chance to experience sushi roll with spicy mayo.

Good, reasonably priced food! The spicy tuna roll was really good, but the pickled ginger and shrimp tempura roll were both just okay. Next time I’ll try the Cajun food, the air smelled promising!

My household orders from here regularly. Our go to is the chicken teriyaki with fried rice (for 55 cents extra), although I do switch it up with the chicken+shrimp box at times. Their bento boxes are good value if you prefer a slightly more substantial meal. I did not like the noodles (+75 cents); ordered twice and both times they were chewy and didn't taste as good as the fried rice. Also love their sushi rolls: shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, volcano, rock & roll and california roll. Orders placed at night (8pm or later) have not always been as good as those placed in the afternoon or evening. Service is okay, although sometimes slow, and the space has a lot of character. A few times the booths were not super clean and there are sketchy characters hanging around outside on the corner at times. We usually pick up from the store, and occasionally have eaten at the restaurant.

Nice seafood. Felt fresh and big, but fell short on the sauce options. Garlic butter sauce had no seasoning and I wouldn’t go back because the sauce options for the flavoring for a proper seafood boil bag are just not there. Super friendly and thorough staff, very lovely.

Loooking for good chicken teriyaki and saw this new establishment has teriyaki in its name. They have a special going on, two orders of teriyaki was $14 something.. Kind of suspicious but its a good deal. The chicken is grilled almost crispy, not burnt but almost there. Veggies were mostly cabbage and its pretty good. Rice is also good. The shrimp is small but cute and good tasting, Q and bouncy lol. The small container of sauce is kind of gingery but not bad.

The first time I ordered the flavors were great. I accidentally selected “hot” for my lobster tail seafood boil last time, so I ordered “medium” spice this time, but it was still soooooo hot. I couldn’t even eat it. Plus, the prices have been raised but they only include one potato now instead of two. Therefore prices have been raised, but you’re getting less food. I always love supporting local businesses, but I was really disappointed with my food. It ended up in the trash.

Ordered from DoorDash and as a southern was disappointed. The crawfish, clams and shrimp were over cooked and were so dry. They smothered everything in butter and it tasted/looked as if they didn’t use enough water or seasoning to boil the seafood. The gumbo was too watery and the seafood in it was either overcooked or wasn’t fresh. Boyfriend also go food poisoning.

The cashier’s constant negativity is unacceptable. While the food is decent, her attitude needs improvement, especially since I’m the one paying. I’d like to speak with the owner about this matter.

I’m definitely not ordering from this place again. This can get YOU sick. They don’t clean their seafood. Even the shrimp has its shell and poop that was not removed. I’ve ordered from this place before and it’s not how it used to be. They obviously don’t care about their customers especially a regular that comes in often. Never again either this place.
