Description

At this charming family-owned restaurant, diners experience a blend of delightful and disappointing moments. While the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff receive praise, the food quality is inconsistent. Highlights include excellent seafood dishes, such as shrimp and catfish, as well as satisfying burgers and hush puppies. However, some patrons have reported issues with lukewarm meals and lackluster flavors. Service can be slow, especially during peak times when the staff is short-handed. Overall, while the restaurant has its bright spots, guests should manage expectations regarding food quality and service efficiency, making it a mixed dining experience worth considering.

We just got into town and were excited to try this little family owned restaurant. As we sat down the waitress shared that they were short staffed and food would be awhile which is why we tried to be patient as we waited for our order. After 45 minutes we were told the crab dip we ordered for an appetizer was no longer available (we were really expecting to get our meal by that point 45 minutes in). We decided not to order another app at that time because we didn’t want it if our food was almost going to be there. I’m not kidding you- 1 hour and 20 minutes from sitting at the table we had to ask the waitress to ask about our food. She wasn’t sure so went back to ask and then came back and said it was almost ready. When we asked how much longer she said maybe another 10-15 minutes which would have been close to waiting an hour and a half with no food at all. We said we couldn’t wait any longer and nicely let her know we needed to leave. The thing that frustrated me is no one checked on us throughout that whole encounter. A five top sitting with waters for almost 1 1/2 hours- no other waitress, or manager, or owner checked in curious why we were sitting for so long with nothing on the table. Just wish they could have been more aware of their customers.

This was my first time going to this restaurant. My family and I went to celebrate my mom's birthday. Everyone was friendly and the food was awesome. Our waitress Laci B was awesome and she gave great recommendations on what to eat. I will be coming back to this restaurant again
