The food was very delicious . Our waiter was very kind and sweet. The vibe of this place is really nice and calm. I would recommend to come here ! Everything was amazing !

Shrimp were great and the lobster were incredible as well. Will definitely go back again.

Came for the first time after family hiking trip. Was so worth it!! I had the burger, my dad had the seafood. the burger was super good and I recommend it. I got the House style burger. It was super juicy. The fries were good but I just felt like they didnt really try on it. There was a big cajun-powder patch by my fries and it threw me off for a sec. Service was fine! Ambiance was good, love the shows on the TV! I totally recommend as its such a calm, cozy environment. :)

Our first time here. I was with my husband and my toddler. We got the Hmong sausage and rice with the dinner combo of 1 pound shrimp, mussels and crawfish. You can select your level of spice and sauce choice. We had the spicy thai chili sauce and it was SO good! If you don't like your food too spicy, you can choose lemongrass or lemon butter sauce. The dinner combo that we had cost $50 and comes with 1 corn and 1 potato. That was plenty for the both us. My toddler had the Hmong sausage and rice with a side of plain corn. Service was great! We were the only family in the restaurant after 7pm on a week day and the server took great care of us. She was attentive to our needs and provided a high chair, extra plates and a kid cup. The restrooms are gender neutral and have a baby station. Clean and welcoming environment. Very family friendly restaurant as well. We will definitely be back to try other dishes on the menu!

It was my first time coming to this wonderful place and I just have to say it's the best place to eat boil seafood. There top flavor is Thai Chili (added with medium spicy level). It's not that spicy however it tastes super delicious! Their Thai Chili sauce, hands down the best combo to eat seafood boil. THEIR SHRIMP IS JUMBO AND FAT, and when I say jumbo and fat, it's big so it's worth the shrimp. The workers were amazing by taking their time explaining the menu and the server was patient enough to read back your order to make sure everything is correct. They would come by our table to ask us how everything is too. I didn't try their other food because I want to just experience their seafood boil but I'm planning to go back to try other things. They also give you plastic bibs, good quality gloves and utensils.

Great meal! Had headless shrimp with quail eggs, potatoes, corn and sausage medium spice. It was amazing!

Weekday at noon. Immediate seating. No crowds. If you have been to one of those crab seafood shacks in California or down in the New Orelans, you won't be disappointed by their menu. Their Canjun style seafood boil is heavily influenced with a Vietnamese flavors. You pick your favorite seafood items (crawfish, snow crab legs, doungneas crab, shrimp, mussels, or lobster tails) by pounds, pick a spice flavor and then enjoy it. Each order is packed in a big plastic bag (yah, I know). In addition to the seafood, the meal also include corn, potatoes and other items of your choice. We had a lunch special with the Thai Chili seasoning. Quite spicy but very flavorful. A bowl of rice came with the meal to soak up all the sauce. Don't worry about getting messy while deshelling your seafood. The restaurant provides you with some gloves and bibs. Have a glass (or a pitcher) of beer or enjoy your meal with some wines. Lunch hour is 11a to 2p. So make sure you go there in time to take the advantage of the specials. Dinner is 4p to 9p. Closed on Mondays. They also do takeouts, so you don't have to worry about losing your manners. :-)
