Barbara LoveladyAugust 17, 2019Their shrimp dishes are pretty good. The food is generally what you would expect and there's plenty of it. The prices are reasonable, especially near Cary.Upvote1Downvote
Kim LiuMarch 3, 2016The shrimp tacos are really good, really fresh! Chips and salsa are good, not to mention free. :)Upvote1Downvote

Great place, but occasionally they'll put cheese dip on burritos instead of shredded. Waiter told me the cooks get lazy some times. They'll fix.Upvote1Downvote
