Crab Du Jour Cajun Seafood & Bar

Made my own boil. Crab legs, lobster tail, eggs, and steamed rice in du jour mild sauce. Got home (other side of town) only to see the forgot my rice. Called multiple times and ask I got was a vn that hasn't been set up. A waste and loss of 2.00. Then they have the audacity to charge 18% gratuity to ALL orders. Maybe if you all cared about what really matters, you wouldn't have to force that on ppl and they'd willing to tip.

When I first arrived, there were two security guards at the door. They were very cool with a great sense of humor, very helpful. Tried to convince my bf and I to eat in. However the music was ENTIRELY too loud. Seems more like a club scene... like TGIF on wake forest rd. They offered to get us a little quieter space on the inside. Very much appreciated. Out comes this tall African American chick. She didn't acknowledge us, even after TRYING to make small talk and them telling her multiple times it was us that needed special seating. She had a bad attitude written all over her face. She did spend time speaking to the two guards outside though. Based on the way she was dressed and the make up with the huge eyelashes.... let me shut up, I'm sorry. I should've just walked away when there was talk about her quitting. She gestured for us to follow her inside, where she had another young lady help us with seating. Again, it's so loud in there, you can't even have a conversation. I tapped the young lady on the shoulder and told her we'd just do carry out instead. She lead us to the carry out side where we ordered. The young lady behind the counter was very nice and knowledgeable. Almost forgot to mention, there's a horrible smell in that place. Another sign that I should've walked away.

There wasn't much sauce in boil, good seasonings/flavor, the crab legs taste fishy (not all that good), the lobster tail was so over cooked, I had to scrape it out the shell, and one of the potatoes were bad. I guess it's a good thing I didn't get my steamed rice because it would've been dry.

This place is not what it used it.... food, service, environment. Sigh. This was my go to. On to the next one I guess.
