    I went to lunch on a whim because it was near my conference. I am so glad I went. The service was so friendly and kind. Red Beans and rice with fried chicken was prepared perfectly. Gumbo is spot on. I loved my experience completely!

    Besides the amazing food, the throwback R&B on an already romantic Valentine's night really sold us on this place! Yes we had our kids with us on our date, but this place made our night, regardless! Happy to return soon.

    Food is always great at Superior Seafood. Very open feel to it and nicely decorated with wood panels, gold roof and mirrors on walls and posts. Very festive. Had a really nice lunch starting off with some wonderful charbroiled oysters to share. I had the amazing Shrimp Andouille Brochettes, which consisted of Char-grilled, bacon wrapped shrimp stuffed with andouille sausage and while cheddar cheese. My friend had the French Dip which included slow-braised roast meat on a Leidenheimer roll with fries. Couldn't resist those fries myself, so had to try several bites. Service with Chloe was great. Very nice and attentive.
