We spent 2.5 hours there, and our waitress only checked on us about four times. We had to flag down other staff members to get our drinks or even make trips to the bar ourselves. Furthermore, they really need to improve their air conditioning or at least get some additional fans. There was only one fan, and it did little to relieve the heat. It was hard to enjoy the meal while sweating the entire time.

The ambiance was charming, the drinks were excellent, and the specials were remarkable. Our server was incredibly attentive, too. The smoked red snapper dip was a perfect match for the wontons, and I thoroughly enjoyed the crab-stuffed grouper! The bisque at the bottom was simply divine—chef's kiss! Thank you for a wonderful evening, and we can’t wait to return soon.

My absolute favorite is the Stuffed Grouper, a dish so delectable you 'll want to savor every last bite. While it 's on the pricier side, the flavors are worth every penny—you might just find yourself licking the plate clean! The atmosphere is fantastic, and surprisingly for a seafood restaurant, they serve one of the most unforgettable burgers you 'll ever taste: The Beast. It 's truly exceptional!

The sweet bartender downstairs played us whatever music we liked. Love her. Congratulations on Backwoods Crossing getting on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives.
