I found it, and actually went to it,

my chick said she has never ate that much seafood ever.

I got the steampot for 2.

Basically a full crab, a cold stone called crab, 2 sausages, shrimp and potatoes.

It is called Joes Crab Shack.

Sun-Thurs 11a-10p
Fri-Sat 11a-11p

It is ok, it came out to be like 45 bucks for both of us, we were filled. The food was ok, but it was fun to eat with your hands. ! plus you get to socialize a lot.
