This restaurant is fantastic with consistently good customer service. I admire their commitment to keeping the place impeccably clean. The fried oysters are a personal favorite of mine, and I used to love their Homemade Lemonade until the last time I ordered it and found it overly sweet. Unfortunately, considering the high price of the lemonade, I had to discard it. Despite this, I still highly recommend this establishment.

I have tried the snapper, pollock, fries, vanilla bean blended drink, and potato salad at this restaurant. Everything was delicious and fresh. The fish was crispy on the outside and tender inside. The blended drink was velvety and sweet, and the tartar sauce had a tangy and creamy flavor with a hint of garlic. This place is a hidden gem that focuses on classic dishes done well. There are no gimmicks, just delicious and comforting food.

Oh my goodness, the food at this restaurant is amazing! I really enjoy the oysters, the seafood sandwiches, the fries, and the fish. The seasoning is perfect and the flavors are bold. This has quickly become my new favorite spot for seafood.

Chicken tenders are the best I ever had, fried shrimp is top tier, fried catfish is a solid 9/10. Onion rings are delicious and fries order them well done. I recommend eating there while it’s still hot and fresh. This my favorite fried seafood spot so far. Service: Dine in
