John WildesOctober 21, 2019We sampled just about everything on the menu. The fish of the day was Mahi Mahi and tasted great both fried and grilled. Gumbo was excellent and the grilled shrimp tacos were pretty solid too.
Keith WarfordApril 17, 2014Stumbled upon this place via foursquare- did not disappoint! We did lunch both from & to the airport on the trip. Lots of variety- all good. And no frills- bang for the buck place- Love it.
Liz TanMay 11, 2017Loved the food here, we got shrimp tacos and fish tacos, sides of fried okra, fries and hushpuppies. Between the two of us, that was a lot of fried food but - it was worth it.
Steve GraceFebruary 1, 2019Great local joint. PoBoy’s are amazing fish tacos outstanding everything was great.A little off the beaten path for tourist but well worth the drive
Donna S 🇺🇸November 2, 2018Awesome fried shrimp! I also enjoyed fried okra and onion strips! Oh I can’t leave the hushpuppies out!! It’s all good! ♥️♥️I love the drive thru option!
D SmithApril 12, 2015I had the grilled shrimp with okra and slaw for lunch Wednesday. I had fried okra fries and the soft shell crab Thursday. The food was excellent and the service was too.
Carl SimmonsMay 28, 2019The best local seafood restaurant in the area. Try the red snapper or mullet fried or grilled. The gumbo is to die for
Mary ConverJuly 17, 2018Awesome seafood, fish, shrimp and gumbo! Ok for wheelchairs, kids and gluten sensitivity.
Christie IsonJune 1, 2013Amazing food! Don't be fooled by the lowly appearance of the place. Grilled shrimp, slaw, cheese grits and fish tacos are all worth going a few miles out of your way.- Sarah ThompsonMarch 1, 2014The fried shrimp, hushpuppies, fried okra, and grits are the best! This was my first time, definitely will be going back!
Claire HathcockJune 4, 2015Small and cute! Don't let the appearance drive you away. The food here is amazing! I recommend the shrimp! I don't think you could get any bad food here :)- Steve LarsonMay 13, 2021Had the grilled mahi dinner with hush puppies, fries and cheese grits. It was awesome. Great food and fast service, I’ll be back.
Chris GJune 17, 2014Whoa! This place is really really good. Whatever amberjack is, it's awesome. And the potato salad is unexpectedly awesome.
Anna McCormickApril 19, 2013Even though I am not a seafood lover I love this place! Great food! Great atmosphere!
Jenifer MyersAugust 19, 2012We got the fried oysters and the platter. Both were fantastic, the place is small and you eat at picnic tables but the food is outstanding.
- Jason MerkelSeptember 4, 2015Shrimp, various fish, mullet, soft shell crab, gumbo, sweet tea! Never had anything bad!
Grab the calamari special while they have it, it's incredibly good and V fresh- Amanda EngelOctober 14, 2015must try the fish tacos, hushpuppies, fried okra, baked beans, and cheese grits!!
Daire AnthonyAugust 1, 2012The fish and shrimp are both outstanding. You eat at picnic tables, or order to go, so there's nothing fancy about it, but the food speaks for itself.- If it's too crowded on Saturday comeback after 2pm for lunch when it's mostly empty.
Not much ambiance, unless you like eating at a picnic table, but the meals and gumbo are great
Justin GrahamJune 29, 2015Have to feed my gumbo craving with a gallon of gumbo........should last a few days

"The salad bar here has premium choices with sun dried tomatoes, edamame, fresh veggies, and they even make their own croutons. This is a great option to try with your meal or even as your meal!"
