    The buffalo grouper sandwich is so good, and they have a delicious frozen drink that tastes like key lime pie! Fun place to watch sunsets.

    Sat outside to enjoy the sunset. Service was good and the food was tasty. Jerk chicken sandwich was spicier than what in used to, but the kids liked it!

    First of all it's "shrimp" not "shrimps" you degenerate. Staff is great but if they are busy they can't be on a degenerates beckoning call. I'm sure you didn't tip as well. Food is great

    While the diablo shrimp is delicious, it will tell you to do evil things. Exercise caution when eating, but do try it. It's delicious.
