Couples night out - We attended the Shrimp boil and it was amazing. Sat next to a couple who live 10 minutes from us in Michigan—great conversation, small world moment. Food was top-tier and homemade from scratch. Each course was explained by Chef Gregory with history behind it, which made the experience even better. Music was incredible—live duo that’s well known in New Orleans and really set the vibe. Favorite dish: maque choux with a slice of alligator sausage—chef’s kiss. Shoutout to Larry, he did his thing. If I ever see this tour again, book it—unforgettable experience.

Home cookin - Had an awesome experience at the boil. A truly authentic experience. Everything had that perfect home cooked taste from the appetizers to the main course. The shrimp super fresh and were still swimming the night before. My wife and I enjoyed the experience, the band, and more importantly the food. Will definitely be back next time

Worthy of all the stars 🌟 - Shrimp Boil Cabaret was an unprecedented experience. I'm glad I listened to the reviews. Greg was responsive, personable, accommodating, knowledgeable, and an incredible chef and host. The band created that Big Easy ambience. The group was fun and lively. We didn't want to leave. I highly recommend this experience, especially to first-timers.

Don’t miss this - Food and live music were excellent. Learned interesting facts about local seafood. Meal was four courses that included crab, alligator, shrimp, and dessert. I was especially appreciative of them addressing my wife’s gluten-free (Celiac) requirements. I will be back.
