Overview

Located in the heart of Wiggins, Mississippi, BUKU Seafood stands out as a beacon for seafood lovers seeking fresh, well-prepared dishes in a casual yet inviting setting. This local gem, nestled at 1719 S Azalea Dr, offers a diverse menu that highlights the rich flavors of the Gulf Coast, reflected in their expertly boiled seafood and classic Southern sandwiches.

The restaurant’s strength lies in its boiled seafood offerings, featuring snow crabs, royal reds, crawfish, and a variety of crabs like blue and dungeness. Patrons consistently praise the freshness and quality, with customers like Ashley Earley calling the boil "some of the best on the coast." While the seasoning on the boil bags might benefit from a touch more zest, as Misty Mccauley noted, the affordability and taste keep guests coming back.

BUKU’s commitment to traditional flavors is also apparent in their po-boys. Whether it’s the fish, roast beef, hot sausage, or shrimp variety, each sandwich serves as a hearty and satisfying experience. The shrimp po-boy has its fans, though some suggest a more generous portion of shrimp to balance the sub roll better. The shrimp tacos, meanwhile, offer a fresh twist on coastal cuisine—generous, flavorful, and perfect for a filling meal, drawing praise for both taste and prompt service.

The restaurant caters well to families with an accommodating kids menu, featuring fish, chicken strips, and shrimp baskets, ensuring younger guests enjoy a meal tailored to their tastes. The friendly atmosphere and clean environment enhance the overall dining experience, making it a great destination for locals and visitors alike.

BUKU Seafood is ideal for anyone craving authentic Gulf seafood in an unpretentious, welcoming spot. Whether you’re dropping in for a pound of boiled crawfish or savoring grilled shrimp tacos, the blend of quality ingredients, reasonable prices, and a warm, community vibe makes it a standout in the Mississippi seafood scene.

Shrimp poboy was wonderful! Needs more of everything on the sandwich, especially shrimp. There was only about 8 on a not quite 12" quite sub roll.
