The food is absolutely delicious. The crabcakes were tender, flaky, full of flavor. The sandwich buns are unlike any I have ever ate. And their ice cream...homemade and so rich. Way better than anything you buy at the store. Our waiter was very pleasant. Definitely a must-go!

They certainly live up to their reputation, just like their sister restaurants Ozzie, Patsy's, and Coastal Flats. The staff was excellent, and Kasey made us feel very welcome, offering great customer service. It was a bit hot in the dining area—I'm not sure if it was just the corner tables or an issue with the HVAC system. (Update: The next day, the manager, Kylie, called us to explain that it was a fuse problem and apologized for the inconvenience.)

There is ample parking available both in front and on the side of the building. A long ramp on each side leads up to the front entrance. This popular spot tends to be busy, so be sure to make a reservation. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was flavorful and served in just the right portions. The Firecracker shrimp were excellent—I could have made a small meal out of them with a salad. Ordering sweet rolls supports a charity that helps feed others, making it a delicious way to give back! We enjoyed jambalaya, a salad with protein, and pecan-crusted trout. All dishes were generously sized and tasty. My pecan-crusted trout came with a light lemon sauce and asparagus—delicious! No room left for dessert this time!

They truly live up to the reputation of their well-known restaurant family, including Ozzie’s, Patsy’s, and Coastal Flats. The staff was exceptional, and Kasey made us feel very welcome with great customer care. It was quite warm by the corner tables—not sure if it was an HVAC issue or just how that area is. (Update: The next day, the manager Kylie called to inform us there was a fuse problem and apologized for the inconvenience.)
