We love this restaurant. Very local feel. Great food; especially the crab cakes.
The layout of the place separates into two main rooms. One side is sort of a family style picnic table eatery and the other side is the bar. We have experienced both sides and enjoyed them both. We prefer the bar side though since it feels a bit lighter, the mood is more fun and we enjoy watching the games.
I was surprised how much I enjoyed this place. Â This area of Pasadena isn't the greatest and I was just hoping to not walk into a dimly lit bar that happened to serve food. Â This place rocks! Â If you have kids, dine here. Â It is loud enough to drown them out without being too loud to talk. Â Plus they have a great kids menu. Â We sat on the right side of the restaurant at one of the many picnic tables. Â Our server was friendly and fun. Â I ordered one of their seafood platters with it steamed and broiled as opposed to fried. Â My sides were the fries and shrimp mac salad. Â Everything was good except for the piece of haddock on my platter. Â It was very dry. Â The crabcake for than made up for it. Â It wasn't full of jumbo lump meat or anything fancy. Â It was simple and delicious. Â There are tons of things on their menu, they offer all you can eat sun-thurs, and they have craft beer. Â My husband and parents enjoyed the beer as well as their meals. Â
Enjoy the local vibe in a casual atmosphere.
I LOVE THIS PLACE!! AYCE seafood and when I say seafood I mean TRUE SEAFOOD!! I've yet to eat here and be disappointed. I've had steamed crabs, crab legs, steamed shrimp, fries, hushpuppies, crawfish, fried clams, corn, soup and a few other good dishes I am forgetting. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It speaks volumes and is such a good look when you have been going to restaurant for over a year and the same staff is working there from the first day you walked in. It's like extended family here! The AYCE crabs are always a decent size and are very meaty. You can also order Medium, Jumbo Crabs by dozens. No worries if you're not a AYCE kinda person they have a menu just for you too! Beer, Mixed drinks, Full Bar...again I love this place. Try it out and I promise you will not be disappointed. OH!! There seafood seasoning is truly one of a kind and they sell it - grab some if you can! You can also order food to go!
