FOOD QUALITY: ÜBER DELISH!!!!! I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS LOL. The lemony sauce surprisingly blends well with the mussels. I also tried the Mardi gras sauce and I just can't get enough of the bits of meat in it. It had a subtle spiciness that we chose earlier. I had 2 bags of mussels I thought I'll have a stroke after lol. The salty egg sauce with the shrimp wasn't really my cup of tea. I didn't like the grainy texture. Nevertheless it tasted great I wished I ordered for more. Haven't tried the crabs but will definitely go back for that.
SERVICE TIME: Around 15 - 20 minutes. I guess they were short staffed that night. It took a long time for them to give me my third plate of extra rice. Hehe so yeah another dead air in the experience.
AMBIANCE: The place is relatively small. We went there very late at night and it was crowded. I like the seafood murals and their lighting. I would suggest subtle music in the background.
PRICE: shrimps were around 500, and it had only 10 pieces in a bag. I thought it could have been a lot more. The mussels were cheap though. The crab is 200 per 100g. Expensive but I'll see if it's worth it.
First of all, I don't eat seafood particularly if it wasn't cooked well enough to remove the stinky smell of the sea, so I was kind of hesitant to eat here, but after all of what happened in that one small corner around BGC, I thought this would be a place I will definitely go back to with friends and family. I recommend this to people who like to get out of their comfort zones and try different tastes among their long list of options.
Great job...
Read moreTerrible service. They placed us at a table by the door as the second floor was reserved. They didn't offer us the table under the stairs as THE STAFF THEMSELVES WERE SITTING ON IT because literally THERE WERE NO ONE ELSE IN THERE ON A SATURDAY. from the moment we entered til we left, no other customers came in. Never going back. Not worth it.
Didn't provide an apron Didn't provide tissue
The audacity to charge 10% SERVICE charge when they didn't provide any service rather than taking our orders.
They don't provide anything proactively what should have been a necessity for dining in at a seafood bucket place like an apron and TISSUES! we were two and literally only gave us 2 SHEETS of tissues.
Never going back. Overpriced. We paid 1865 or a total of 2000 plus for a 900 GRAMS SHRIMP AND MUSSELS ONLY. The cajun sauce didn't even taste good. Better go to the...
