This review is the one you need: 1. The queue was 1hr 10 mins on a Saturday at 7pm, not bad in my eyes for a hyped restaurant. It was -2 outside when we queued up so glad I was wearing a fat coat. The queue runs along the river so it will get chilly so make sure you 're warm if visiting in the winter. When we got to the front, the manager moved us under the tables with the heated lamps which was lovely. The food was mostly worth the wait. All in all, not too bad. I was expecting way worse. 6/10 2. The food was mainly good. My highlight was the beef brisket doughnuts...paired with the sauce and the pickles.. omg delicious. The buttermilk prawns were also banging. We had *all* the snacks. The chicken skin was not worth it...cold and dry. Mac and cheese balls were not pulling and dry from the inside. The best snack was the jalapeño popper and calamri. We got the po boy with the buttermilk chicken and I think the chicken was really dry and not tasty. I wish we got the grilled chicken po boy as with all the fried snacks, it all started to taste the same after a while, so if you go I 'd recommend if you 're getting the snacks, get the grilled chicken/prawn option for your BYO Poor Boy . I 'd give the food on its own an 8/10. It was mainly hit, but the items that were misses, were real misses. 3. The restaurant was coooooold inside. Make sure you dress warm if you 're visiting in the winter. I had to sit with my coat over my legs as a blanket! The seats are super uncomfortable and the bathrooms were not the cleanest. 1/10 4. Service is fast and the server we had was very attentive. No fault whatsoever with that! She even swapped over some sauces for us as we had so many of the same sauces! The only thing about the service was that the server didn 't ask us about our meal at the end, but that is being really nit-picking. 10/10 Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £50–60 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Brisket

Tough call but only 4 stars. A bit overpriced since nothing comes with sides. A huge queue (1hr at 5pm) but luckily if you decide to brave the cold and sit outside with heaters like we did you get seated/served in 30 instead. The £15 shrimp po boy was huge and tasty. The £20 beef rib sadly was a bit fatty and not that well spiced. Also some strange reason they pair it with a ‘philly cheese’ that’s sorta a cheese whiz ok for a cheesesteak sub but not beef rib!! Asiah the waiter/host was cool and great service from him and Charlie! Suggested they get some Old Bay for all that great seafood! I know this is Kingston etc but really for those prices should come with some fries or a side. No desserts which is strange perfect place for pecan pie, key lime pie or at least cheesecake.

This place is an absolute gem of a place. The surf and turf is crazy amazing. I love the soft shell crab. If only they give you more of it. It’s beyond tasty. The Cajun mayo is the best sauce hands down. The wait staff are lovely and friendly. Best place for fast fried food ever.

Service was fast and friendly. The array of snacks/sides that we ordered were all great, with my particular favorite being the bbq beef brisket donut. I’d recommend visiting outside of peak hours like we did, as you’ll avoid the inevitable queue.
