"The garlic chicken and butterfly squid taste so good, well seasoned and very tasty. Regarding with the seafoods, the flavor of cajun wasn't absorbed by the seafood meat itself; i guess the seafoods were boiled first, and by the time the customer will order, they will cook the sauce then mix the boiled seafoods after. Overall, the food still great, however, we had a bad experience here, we didn't notice the table and chairs that we used (since it's dark colored) weren't cleaned properly. There were still oils, perhaps from the seafoods from their last night's customers, left on the side edges of the table and chairs, thus, it stained our pants and shirts."

"The place was spacious and comfortable. The waitresses were very attentive and kind, which made the experience even better. The food was absolutely delicious—we had the mixed seafood, garlic chicken, and fried squid on a stick. The sauce on the mixed seafood was the bomb! It was so good that we ended up ordering extra rice just to enjoy every bit of it."

"We dine for here for the 4th time and the great food and service haven't changed. The garlic chicken is always desired by my partner. There's also dessert and pasta in which I really recommend getting their carbonara. Staff will also prepare the leftovers for you to take home. Overall, a great place to dine."
