I ordered the Self Love Boil on doordash. I came here to review again. I can't praise this enough to do it justice. The moment I got it from the delivery person the smell was delicious. The bag was hot and heavy. I opened it from the neatly wrapped foil and was happy to see great sauce and fresh, large portions of seafood. I tasted everything it was all perfectly cooked. crab, shrimp, sausage, potatoes, corn, broccoli, all perfect. The gloves and plastic apron were a very nice touch to the experience. It was great for the price. This was food business excellence to me. I plan to book events with them and will order again for weekend treats. To the chef and owner, "Keep doing your thing!"

Customer service was phenomenal very attentive to the customer. We did dine in to get the full experience. Food came out extremely fresh and flavorful. The catfish was huge(not nasty big lol) and very seasoned. We got wings on the side as well as the two catfish dinners and those wings were delicious too. Overall the place is like a hidden gem definitely worth visiting when in Atlantic City.

Service was superb!! Ordered takeout and loved that the host didn’t hover around us while we decided what we wanted to order. Food was freshly made to order! Cornbread melts in your mouth !! Mac and cheese is seasoned to perfection and perfectly creamy!! Broccoli and cheese was delicious and tender! Greens and peas and carrots were also great! I do wish the wings and shrimp platter had colossal shrimp and at least 6 shrimp instead of 4 (seasoned perfectly!!), wish there was more rice as a bed for the flounder platter (also seasoned and fried perfectly!!), and I wish the wings came with more seasoning other than salt and pepper. Other than that I’d love to try this place again and dine in!

We decided we wanted a seafood boil during our stay while in Atlantic City, found this spot on google with good reviews. Let me start by saying the food was absolutely delicious we loved it! We got the just shrimp boil, the shore special boil and an add on of their extra garlic butter sauce, all for $95. Not bad . The food I have no complaints about whatsoever except for the portion size. I also wish they have more sausage and broccoli. I do not like that they do not allow substitutions for their boils either I ended up getting two boils instead of one because I couldn’t substitute crawfish for something else. In all I do recommend this place for seafood boils they kinda look like they’re under renovations inside. They also do not serve alcohol and the wait for the boil is around 30 mins s

HOW IS THIS PLACE NOT PACKED TO THE DOOR!?!?! Maybe it was because it was a random Tuesday in early April. By far the best soul food I’ve had in a very long time. Everything was cooked fresh and seasoned to perfection! No complaints whatsoever, the staff was great with their hospitality, even met the gentleman who prepared our food…the R&B music was on point (had me ready to do some karaoke), this place is a whole vibe for sure GET HERE! Disclaimer: If you dine-in expect to be served with “To-Go” plastic containers, which is highly preferred by me anyway because I felt reassured everything is safe.
