It was my first time visiting, and my daughter and son took me to the Las Vegas location. My grandson and I ordered shrimp and mussels, which were served to us cooked together in a bag. I chose the Cajun seasoning at medium heat, and it was not only delicious but also a lot of fun to dig into the shells. You simply need to drive over, put on a bib, and pile the discarded shells on the table in front of you. Once you embrace this style of eating, you’ll absolutely love it. With cold beer and amazing seafood, you really can’t go wrong. Peace, Big John.

It seemed either overcooked or had just been sitting in water. We also sampled the crabs, which were flavorful, but considering the small amount of meat relative to the cost, they weren't worth the price. I'm okay with paying for good food, but our total bill came to $260, plus a $40 tip—so $300 for this meal felt quite excessive. While it was initially entertaining to use my hands to crack open all the crabs and shrimp, it quickly turned messy and became more of a chore than enjoyable.

The staff was friendly, although not particularly charming. I felt a bit let down. Fortunately, there were no problems with the food! Is it my favorite place in LA?

The prices aren't too bad but I wish they had a special for 2 or some sort of combo. Everything is a la carte. We went on a Fridaynight and the wait was only 10 minutes. Service can be sporadic. This is a solid 4 out of 5 Stars.

I would?ve liked the option of peeled shrimp, it?s complicated to eat trying to peel them with gloves.
