Shaking Seafood and Wings of Lexington

It's one of our go-to restaurants. They are consistent with the food so that makes me happy. My "usual" is crawfish and shrimp (heads on) with sausage, cajun, med. Always comes out just how I like it. Ive tried other items, crab legs, mussels, blue crabs, clams and its all been delicious. But sometimes you need a quick fix and that's where my usual comes in. My husband is NOT a seafood guy, so finding items on the menu he will eat is a plus. He usually gets the tilapia basket, but as of recent, he went with the chicken strips basket and actually thought the chicken was spot on. While it's breaded, it's not more breabread than chicken, if you know what I mean. Guess he has a new favorite. We also got the naked wings, since their wings are breaded, we are not the breaded wings type, and they came out pretty good, ill try another sauce next time to see what they working with.

Me and friend came here for dinner. I love a good seafood boil and my friend is a Louisiana native so she's privy to them as well. Service was extremely slow as it took about 10 minutes for us to be greeted after we were sat. (Wednesday evening) we ordered our drinks which were just coke and water. It took a while and, a team lead maybe, stopped by and asked us if we had been greeted and what we were drinking. She brought us our drinks promptly. A few minutes after, our waitress brought us our drinks again that the team lead had already delivered. We told her it was fine to leave the now extra drinks, and we would get to them. We ordered our appetizer and let the waitress know we would be splitting the boil bag. We ordered alligator bites for an appetizer. The appetizer and entree came out at the same time. We both tried the bites, which are heavily marinated in Tabasco. The flavor wasn't bad but the texture was incredibly hard and crunchy and the bites had almost no meat to them. They were tiny crunchy breaded hot sauce flavored things. We weren't feeling them at all. The boil special was delicious. No complaints there. Garlic butter was on point, plenty of shrimp, potatoes, etc. when we let the waitress know that we weren't please with the appetizer, she got the team lead for us. The team lead came to the table and listened to our opinions without debate or biased and said she'd take care of it since her boss was gone. She took the appetizer and went to go handle it presumably. A few moment later, a gentleman who identified himself as the owner brought the basket of bites back with one in his hand and demonstrated by eating it that that's how they were supposed to taste. I asked him if that was our basket, disgusted that he would ate after us to prove a point, and he said yes and continued to tell us how the bites were prepared. I told him it wasn't a problem with the marination process or the flavor, they simply just weren't what we were looking for as far as texture and consistency. He let us know that this was a very expensive product and sometimes not even available and then stated "do us a favor and let me give you 25% off". I could hardly hear him because my mind was telling me there's no way this man is eating the food in front of us that we just sent back. He doesn't know if we coughed all over the food or dropped it in the seats and put it back or anything and he was steady munching away, as if him damn near breaking a molar to prove a point, was going to make the appetizer more appealing. Needless to say, I will not be returning here. From the actions of this owner, I'd say standard health precautions are probably not in order at this establishment.

Had another great meal here last night. The steamed oysters were full of flavor and the lemon pepper sauce perfectly enhanced them. Service was excellent as always. You can always tell a good owner/manager because they tend to keep their staff/support team. I see the same crew nearly every time I'm there so that says a lot. Always friendly will make you feel like home. If you've never been, check out the bar area. Has a tiki bar feel to it and makes you think you're just steps from the beach. One of my Lexington favs.

Visiting from out of state, my friends and I were looking for a good place to eat a quick lunch. We found this restaurant on google map and decided to check em out before we hit up some breweries and distilleries. We each ordered our own seafood combo - i decided to get the snow crab legs and peeled shrimp combo with their special sauce, which basically includes all 3 sauce flavor-in-one (so yummy!). Overall, i thought everything was delicious and exploding with cajun flavors! I thought it was pretty unique to see an egg as part of the combo, which also actually paired well with the sauce.Our server was super nice and made us feel welcome, which is always a good feeling when you go to a new restaurant :) Overall, i recommend this place if you're looking for a good/ decently priced seafood spot in Lexington!

Great seafood and even better service! Outstanding experience. The owner even came over and talked with us for a few minutes and included a few complimentary shots of Woodford Reserve bourbon.

They had great customer service and the food was delicious! Our server was so funny and cute and attentive. The crab boil was delicious.

We live for the WINGS!!!! The food is AMAZING. We love it here! We love it here. It is the bomb I recommend coming it here.

Very good seafood. Great for large crowds and family outing events. Kid friendly. I really enjoyed the food and drinks here. A must try

Yelp made me leave a star, they do not deserve not a one! I will never order from this restaurant again. I ordered the 1/2lb shimp dinner and a 1/2lb of snow crab dinner. only to find out that this does not come with no sides, it it just the seafood. That is false advertising, when you think of dinner I assumed that the corn and potatoes came with the dinner, it does not. I go back to the restraunt and the owner is very RUDE. Most businesses would. explain and would at least try to accommodate the consumer. He did not, it was so bad that one of his employees came out and explained to me and said he is always rude! I will not be back and advise anyone else to stay away from this restaurant.

Best seafood place! kenya was my server and she's the best!!!! food came out so fast I will be back very soon!
