Steamboat Bills

One of my favs in the area for sure. its seafood and cajun so fried is the name of the game here. My wife and I love the sea side atmosphere and the food is awesome. I have tried many items but have to say my favorite is the Scallops. Tender, lightly battered and melt in your mouth. The portions are great and I rarely finish everything regardless of my dinner choice. This is coming from a 260 man, so Im sure youll be pleased with anything you choose. Red slobster will never get another penney from me as long as SB's is around... more

Dined @ SB's on 1-29-11. Service was slow, although I think this was due to poor staffing. The dining room we were in had 1 waitress, and our group, alone, had around 30 people. Food: the worst. Fried, fried, and fried. Yeast rolls were deep-fried. No kidding. One bite, and oil ooozed out into your mouth. Inedible. When I asked for a roll that hadn't been fried, I was told that this was all they had. Red beans and rice were overcooked to the point of being mush. Will NEVER eat there again. more

All of their food is good, but the absolute best is the red beans and rice. My husband and I are well traveled and love cajun food - this is truly authentic stuff. more

I'm a native of La the food is amazing staff is great more

We absolutely LOVE to eat out and I didn't think there was a restaurant within 50 miles of our home in White House that we hadn't tried at least once. When my wife asked where I wanted to go Friday to celebrate Father's Day I said ""Surprise me"", and I expected Caraba's, Logan's, Kabuto, or another of our favorites to be the destination. I couldn't believe that only a few miles from home she found Steamboat Bill's, and what a surprise it was! The place just has a great sea-side vibe, we remarked at how it reminded us of our vacations to Dauphin Island. Our server was an absolute sweetheart who obviously loved her job, in fact the entire staff was outstanding. With six children we are always price-conscious and S.B.'s really delivered a value with huge portions and generous refills. But the best part was the authentic, correctly cooked & seasoned Cajun food, as good as any I've had. The Entoufee-topped baked potato was incredible, the Catfish was wonderful and the steak was perfect, two BIG thumbs up on this one!! Pros: Ambience Cons: The only 'Gator was the huge stuffed one in the lobby more

Finally a restaurant outside of Louisiana that dosent just throw cayenne pepper & garlic or Tabasco on food and call it Cajun! Pros: Authentic Louisiana Restaurant! Cons: Alligator isnt on the menu! more

Being from LA, I found the food to be very authentic in taste and just felt like home again! If great LA seafood is what you are looking for, this is the place to get it! Very casual atmosphere. more

If you have the priviledge of visiting Steamboat Bill's it is the SEAFOOD you are there for! Terrific food at a very good price. I will say a good friend of mine has had their strip steak, and was HIGHLY impressed with it. On a 1 to 10 scale, 9.5, and that's only because of the curvey 2 lane Sanders Ferry Road. Still worth the time to enjoy some terrific food, especially their catfish! more

I was very disappointed because my steak was medium rare, I had requested medium well. The manager ask to recook my steak, but I requested he remove this item from my bill. The rest of my party was almost finished and I did not wish to wait. I suggested he only charge me for the potatoe and salad portion of my dinner, he just stood there a looked at me. When I received my bill he had in fact removed the price of the steak dinner and instead charged me only for the small salad ($1.99) and potatoe ($4.49). I was willing to pay for these because I had eaten them. When something like this has happened at other establishments, they were very apologetic and removed the entire meal. I returned to those establishments to give them another chance. Everyone has bad days! I will not return to this one! more

This place is incredible! I've never seen heaping platters of food like they serve here, all freshly prepared and delivered to your table by the fresh staff. The catfish atchfalaya is the most appealing melange of cajun flavors and textures you've ever had in your life...there's no food in Louisiana that's any better than this! The shrimp here are huge as well, I'd call them Arnold Shrimpenegger's, and the seasoning is really indescribable...one of my favorite digs in Hendersonville or elsewhere. Pros: Big Servings, Friendly Staff, Great Location more

Well, if you like everything fried I guess SB's is your place. The food is okay but the service can be very slow. If you drink any beer at all expect a BIG bill. The ""cajun"" shrimp can be funky at times and I don't think that freshness is at the top of their priority list. Fried, Fried, Fried and more Fried. It's nothing special. Pros: Decent flaor Cons: Too pricy, Not much variety, Slow service more

The Etoufee is to die for. I will continue to go back and order it as often as I can. Overall a great experience, good atmosphere, great food. Pros: Great Cajun, Good service, Food is great more
