It was an amazing experience. It was my first time going there. I took my son with me and when, we got there. The hostess was really nice. She greeted us and sat us at the able.we order the garlic butter wigs and loaded lobster fries. We went in and loved both of them. I had a run a rum punch and, it was just what I expected. We ordered more food, my son loves his crab legs and enjoyed it so much. I had the salmon with yams and mashed potatoes. It was awesome but I couldn’t eat it all I was full. We ordered the crab Mac and cheese. We couldn’t enjoy it because it was cold, when we got it. I just took it home. My only complaints are, it took a while before the waiter came to, take our order and we waited long for our food. Overall it’s a great place and we’ll be you going back
