Sartin's Seafood

SCRRRR......scrrrrrr..........scrrrrrrr..... Do you hear that? That 's me unknowingly going against the grain. I was told by two of my fellow yelpers who have never let me down to 'Go to Sartin 's! . I was so excited that I got the time that I even forgot my wallet where I stayed at, no worries, I got it as well as another friend and came back. (Note, they don 't trust people to eat, come back and pay even if you leave an important document like a TWIC card but I get it, it 's a business . The outside will render you wondering if you 've stepped into a hole in the wall with a jewel hidden inside and the parking (if you find a spot will tell you that you are lucky to get one. Let 's not judge a book by it 's cover right? Step on in, you will be greeted and seated. The first thing you will notice are the cheesy $40 walmart tables that will be room enough for 2 people, 4 in a crunch. Don 't lean on them or they will slip out from you on the cement floor. The second thing you might notice is the open server area where you get to watch them make and pour your drinks and/or iced tea. Kind of like an economy apartment with no walls except for the bathroom maybe? Ok, let 's try the menu items. I ordered the top of the line item which could be considered the fried platter. It consists of fried shrimp, two bbq crabs (with a lot of seasoning.........and then some... , hush puppies, cole slaw and a fish plank. Oysters were supposed to come with it but was told that they do not have any because it 's out of season ...... strike 3, I 'm outta here. The flagship bbq crabs that the other people are talking about...well, they were pretty good but be prepared to ask for plenty of water if you know what I mean, and no, I don 't mean that they were spicy. The positive notes I can say about this place is the service is pretty attentive and the people always checked up on us including the manager ? The cole slaw was one of the best that I have tasted in this town and there is another location in the neighboring city of Beaumont that you can go to if this one does not strike your fancy. Guess where I will probably go next week? Have a great day folks and I hope that you will have the chance to try here and prove me wrong, just don 't forget to bring your wallet.

Sartin 's motto is we 've got the crabs . That would be a horrible motto for an individual, but for a seafood restaurant, it works. I 'm not sure if they invented the concept of BBQ crabs, but they are definitely known for that dish. What are BBQ crabs you ask? They are nothing like New Orleans style BBQ shrimp which were handed down from the lord himself. They aren 't barbecued in the traditional way. They are fried. I have no idea where the name comes from, but people love them. I have only tasted the BBQ crabs and it wasn 't my thing. The people I was with must have eaten several bushels. They absolutely loved them. I got a fried shrimp platter which was pretty good. The shrimp were obviously fresh and cooked perfectly. If you want crabs, you now know where to go.
