It was my first time here and I was pretty impressed with the food. I had the jumbo stuffed shrimp with a side of rice, coleslaw and garlic bread. One word… Amazing! I was actually quite pleased. My friend had the jalapeño boudin and it was very good. I went to undergrad in Louisiana so I know what good boudin tastes like. This was definitely better than the ones I had there. Our waiter was training so he was pretty slow but overall I was impressed with the place.

Not a bad place, but not a super good place either. Just an average place to catch some decent seafood. Kind of cool how the restaurant is in the shape of a boat, but other than that, nothing too special. I would, however, recommend getting a cup of gumbo. Anybody who loves gumbo, would definitely appreciate theirs.

Great place to get a dozen raw oysters on the half shell. The spicy boudin is excellent and they make great micheladas. They shuck the oysters in front of you at the bar, which is kinda cool.

This is my favorite spot! The food is always delicious, fresh oysters, gumbo is the best! Try the shrimp po-boy, loaded with shrimp and flavor. The downside is not a lot of space for family sitting, if weather is not cooperating you can go inside but that’s probably not the best choice for kids.

Understand that this isn’t a $ 30 a plate seafood restaurant. This is a great lil seafood chain that consistently fries up fish, shrimp, scallops, and offers a variety of other things including gumbo. I usually get the whole fried catfish with fries. It’s always perfectly fried and piping hot. Today, I got the whole catfish broiled and stuffed with crab and shrimp over a bed of rice! This was the first time I had it stuffed. I’ve been missing out! It was delicious. Service is usually quick but nothing fancy. This place is also great for carryout, call ahead and save yourself some time.

If I could have given 0 stars I would have. I purchased a cup of gumbo to go on 3÷23÷16. When I arrived home to eat it, there’s was 1 shrimp and the rest was celery and onions. Yuck. I phoned the establishment the following day to complain. ‘Tom’ told me in order to rectify the situation I needed to bring the celery gumbo back. Ha. Never again. Terrible customer service

Good eats! I usually get my order to go, because the place is tight for space. I always get the whole-fried flounder with rice and the shrimp platter for my daughter. The gumbo is good too! It’s best to call your order in and just pick it up, in my opinion.

Been here a dozen times and always get the shrimp/oyster on the half shell platter and will continue to order this until I get sick or move away!

Not sure if all of the locations are like this one but this definitely had a diner atmosphere to it. Like a Waffle House that serves average seafood. I ordered the Mate’s Plate with catfish and shrimp and added an order($ 3 for 3) of the shrimp diablos. I was thinking that the diablos would be an entire hollowed out jalapeño but it was just a tiny piece of a pepper with a shrimp and a piece of bacon wrapped around it. The catfish actually tasted pretty good but the filets were tiny, making it feel like I was eating mostly batter. Shrimp was average. The service was pretty bad as well. No one seemed to care too much about what was going on.

This place is great I’ve been coming here for years and I have never received bad service. The food is great every time I decide to try something new I am never disappointed.

Love their gumbo! I use to go here all the time, but they raised the price to much. The food is always good. Since it’s in a boat there is no room. I always feel cramped while trying to eat.

Disappointed. Food was mediocre and not worth the price. Étouffée came out with a skin on it… yet it was just made. Catfish was not hot. nor were the fries. Alligator was mainly batter and chewy… baked oysters dry and salty. won’t be back

Friendly spot for cold beer(or Michelada) shrimp and oysters. On the shell or fried along with a good gumbo. Plenty of locals and a staff that remembers you gives a welcome vibe. Good patio in warm weather.

I can’t believe I haven’t written a review for this place. I have no idea how they only have 3.5 stars. You want the best fried oysters you have ever had? For that matter, they know how to fry whatever seafood you want, as good as any place. We haven’t gotten to the gumbo. When you come here the very first thing you do is get some gumbo. Shrimp? Lots of it. Crab? Lots of it. A slight kick? YES! When I want fried seafood this is the very first place I think of. The indoor seating is just around a bar. It really isn’t very big. The outdoor seating is plenty, with pretty good coverage. Please go here. Now!

The only reason I gave it more than one star is because their bouding was better than a previous place as was the gumbo. Aside from that personally I thought the food was… eatable, nothing to brag on. Had the stuffed shrimp with sweet potato fries. Hush puppies were good . Heard the one on the south part of Houston was good so maybe its location. Maybe just maaaaaybe one day I’ll give that one a shot.

Not the best. Breaded with cornmeal but not seasoned. I have no idea how this place stays in business. The fish was over cooked and mushy. Disgusting!

I can’t tell you about the food, as I didn’t get to eat it. I told the waitress when I arrived that we were on a lunch break and immediately placed our orders. After an hour we still had no food. No one was rushing around and other patrons seemed exasperated as well. I asked the manager what was going on and he said there was nothing he could do because they had a lot of to go orders. He was rude and seemed offended at my complaint. I won’t be back. The manager clearly doesn’t want the business of me or my coworkers.
