The price was reasonable, the food was good and spicy and service was friendly. I will definitely eat here again. We had a great experience. The sauce at the bottom of the bag was sooo spicy it took my breath away, lol. It had my friends sweating, gasping and lips burning. We had sooo much fun.
Amazing option for a seafood boil in the DC area! Sauce was on point. Service was fast, friendly and amazing.
super impressed. randomly ordered on ubereats && it the boiling crab popped up. so then my lady && i were both thinking we had been craving it. so we ordered 2lbs of shrimp for $17 #bomb && the muscles were huge plus adding potatoes was actually a lot cheaper than i feel if we had gone in to sat down. flavor of the sha-bang at medium on all was perfect w the right kick. it was all cooked perfectly after being suspect of it possibly being overcooked or not warm since being delivered home! the entire order was great!!
No pictures of the food but trust it was good! Came here for my little sisters birthday (turning 10). I called ahead just to be sure they could accommodate large groups because they don't do reservations, and they stated they could seat large groups. There were about 10 of us including children and a crying baby. We were seated upstairs, which was just us, which was great. It wasn't very busy there - thankfully for us. Our server was amazing. She was very patient and attentive! The space was large with lots of seating. Everyone enjoyed their boils and food. Will definitely go back at some point.
