I ordered headless shrimp with coleslaw and hush puppies as sides, along with two snow crab clusters for my husband and me. My husband ended up getting full early, so I ended up tasting a bit of everything. One crab cluster was slightly dry but still good, while the other was perfectly cooked and delicious. The shrimp was excellent, and the hush puppies were tasty. However, the mashed potatoes were mushy and not great, and the corn was very dry. At first bite, the corn seemed disappointing, but then the spicy heat hit unexpectedly. I enjoyed the kick, but it might be too much for some. Unfortunately, we didn't receive the coleslaw, and they were out of sausage, which was supposed to be replaced with eggs, but we didn't get those either. Since it was a to-go order, I only realized this once we were 20 minutes from home. Overall, we'll definitely eat here again, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. One area for improvement: I called to place my order by phone but was told they only accept online or in-person orders. I prefer not to order online, so I went in person and had to wait. The whole process took over an hour from leaving my home to returning, instead of about 40 minutes.

The fried shrimp had a good batter, though it tasted like it had been cooked twice. There were no servers or table menus available, and no buffet. The place was very clean.
