Once upon a time there was a bacon, egg and cheese burger who wanted something more than a bun...he wanted to kick it up a notch, so he got grilled cheese sandwiches instead. Ask for the Swamp Burger.
Johnny AustinMay 4, 2022Great place, food, service outstanding, definitely will go back again the next time we in town, our granddaughter suggested this place- Guacamole made fresh at your table tastes amazing! Can't go wrong with the Ballyhoo Brew either :)
Ash CookeFebruary 15, 2018I had their sno crab legs and they were delicious ! Sometimes has great live bands outside
You've got to sit on the covered patio. Great atmosphere and check out the blackened shrimp tacos. One of my favs!!!
The fresh guac is great. They make it from fresh ingredients at your table
The Mediterranean Flatbread is really, really good. Our waitperson, Stephanie, was really good. A+ for her!
Earl SmithSeptember 22, 2012The food delivery was slow, in there defense we did have a party of 6, but the burgers were very good. Worth the wait.
- Order the BallyHoo Burger and get a side of bleu cheese crumbles. Delish!
- Patricia PtMarch 29, 2014Favorite place but last visit not good. Tell me before I order oysters that you do not have crackers. Other patron ordered after me and was not told either. He went to Publix and purchased crackers.
Get the bananas fosters. Worth it. They make it at your table.
New menu items- Shrimp and grits are TERRIBLE. Don't waste your money, you could make them better at home.
Adam JohnsonJuly 18, 2011Good atmosphere. But wasn't impresses with the food. Maybe a place for drinks.
