Not bad for the price. Ordered the soft shell crab dinner, was $8.99 which is a fair price but the crabs were extremely small and I felt they should have given me three because of the size instead of two. Overall the food was good but the coleslaw leaves a lot to be desired. It’s almost liquid

I ordered over the phone, the lady could hardly speak American. I got our orders & 2 of my orders should have been 2 orders of crab legs with French fries but I got 2 orders of fried clams with french fries. We paid $70 to eat there food. The fried shrimp the breading was hard. I won't be eating there again.

Although m&a might be a bit rundown on the outside it's clean and nice on the inside. The sever behind the counter was nice and patient with us as we read the menu. The food was very good! If your looking for some seafood, deep-fried seafood, it's so so good. We tried a few different things and thought that they were all very tasty, we will definitely be coming back! The crab cake was so delicious! The scallops were soft and flavorful, the egg rolls were unexpectedly one of my favorite parts! Overall I'm glad I don't live closer or I'd convince myself to go for seafood too often. Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes

I ordered this food for dinner, last night (for family & myself) As always, the food is GREAT! I did, however, find a piece of metal in my fried okra. Which is the ONLY reason I rated it 3 and not 5 stars. The taste of the food was great. Quantity, great. Cooked perfectly (except the metal). Thank GOD I saw it before I put the fork to my mouth. I'm not mad because I know it's a piece of cleaning sponge/pad. I used to use those too, until I saw how they could come apart, now I use scrub-daddy or scrub mommy pads. So, I appreciate their cleaning their equipment. Just be very careful, M&A Seafood, because I PROMISE you, if I had swallowed that and it caused an issue, I'd be suing y'all lol, no lie! At least for medical bills. Prayerfully, I didn't swallow any that was hidden in the food. But, this was a 1st time experience with their food, so I'm not being a butt head about it. And yes, I'll probably order again. Order type Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Fries, Catfish, Snow Crab Legs
