What Kay Dom dislikes about Pop's Raw Bar Restaurant:
Drove over 30 minutes to get oysters crab here. Arrived around 5:30 on Tuesday, they opened at 4. Our group sat out front got settled in. Our waitress came out started taking our orders, she had a pretty bad attitude from the get-go which didn’t make any sense to us.

This cozy little spot is perfect for wonderful seafood. We dropped by after spending a morning at the beach. We shared a blackened trigger fish platter, which included some lovely pieces of fish, fries, coleslaw, and hush puppies. We also ordered half a pound of shrimp and some ice-cold beer. Everything was absolutely delicious. It's a nice restaurant with friendly staff.
I visited the restaurant specifically for the raw oysters, and they did not disappoint; they were excellent when paired with the horseradish sauce. However, the rest of the dishes were quite greasy, so I was grateful to have the oysters as a highlight of my meal. The place was bustling and is clearly a favorite among locals.
I visited a bar that had a lively atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service! I would definitely return!
Don’t ever eat here my burger was raw my table was sticky and dirty flies everywhere food was all under cooked waitress was rude rat droppings in my seat didn’t feel safe eating here
