Each dish is creative and DELICIOUS! I haven't encountered a mediocre meal yet. I highly recommend their crab cakes (available on Fridays), fish tacos, pork tower (pulled pork tostada), and one of the best burgers you'll ever taste!

The lump crab cake special with pork belly and shrimp was outstanding, and the slaw and salad were also fantastic. The hospitality was excellent, making the drive completely worthwhile. Additionally, they catered an event for 15 people, and the food was cooked to perfection, which is impressive considering they were preparing shrimp and chicken using sterno!

The front room is perfect for a date night with your wife or you can go to the Shackyard with the kidlets. They can play while you eat! We've been there at least 15 times and have always had good service and outstanding food.
