"PHENOMENAL I MEAN BEST SEAFOOD I HAVE HAD AND I AM LIFE LONG LOUISIANA RESIDENT WITH A SECOND HOME IM FLORIDA- nothing I'm either Slidell, New Orleans or Florida compares to Keith's- the Boiled Dungeness Crab was soo amazing we ordered again the next day!!!! Huge and packed full of sweet delicious melt in your mouth meat was seasoned PERFECTLY not too spicy not too mild I mean PERFECT - so fresh the quality just unreal! We also enjoyed a few pounds of the boiled shrimp they were massively sized like royal reds sweet fresh delicious quality did not even have to use a sauce- did I mention they too were perfectly seasoned and the largest boiled shrimp I think I've had anywhere in the south! YOU WILL NEVER GO BACK TO Wherever you were buying your boiled seafood again unless it's for their soups or other items that you cannot get at Keith's ! 10 out of 10 A++++++++++++"
"the seafood platter was the worst I've ever had. I don't know what went wrong but Keith used to have the best seafood and I was just so disappointed. the soft shell crabs were tiny and over fried, the oysters had a funny taste to them I'm the French bread was dry. the platter was probably 60% fries. I spent $52 for this lunch and I won't make this mistake again."

"The food was great. the potato was tender and broken up perfectly. My only complaint is the portion for the price. While it is seafood on top of the Seafood Baked Potato, the potato itself was small and that's pretty much what you get for the $15-$17 price tag. Spudleys gives you bigger and more for around the same price."
"Not a great experience. Redfish Birria Tacos were deconstructed, redfish was placed in a side cup. No melted cheese, corn shells were cold and uncooked. No Birria sauce. The Seafood Croquettes were cold and not fried completely through. Possibly better to order in store, don’t order for pickup. Not worth the money. "
