    We went with friends specifically to hear Jeannie and Larry play. Our server Will was awesome. One of our friends, who is going through chemo and is experiencing terrible mouth sores, said it was the best meal she had in days. Everyone was pleased with their food and Jeannie and Larry were awesome!

    Great experience for 10 of us ranging from 7-82. My 15 year old son thoroughly enjoyed his all you can eat crab legs. Everyone else loved their meals. They offer large portions, great quality & very affordable prices. My sister-in-law is a foodie from the area. This was her first time & she plans to bring her lady’s dinner club there soon.

    This is my third time going for all you can eat crab. I have to tell you it is a fun experience and date night. But we’ve also gone with kids one time. The service is really what makes it stand out.
