I've tasted the alligator, gumbo, and jambalaya, and they were all amazing. Their burgers are quite generous; each Floater burger is a hearty half-pound, and the prices are very affordable. You won't find a full ribeye steak dinner for just $18 anywhere else in the valley! They also offer about 20 beers on tap, as well as classic sodas. Don’t miss out on trying the orange cream or the root beer. I will definitely be coming back!

We ordered Hush Puppies, a Cod Basket with fries, a Burger plate, and a Philly Steak Sandwich basket with onion rings. The Hush Puppies were perfectly golden and delicious, while the fries were made from freshly cut potatoes. The burgers were crafted from freshly ground meat and hand-formed on-site, ensuring excellent flavor. The Cod was deep-fried to a crispy golden brown, and the onion rings were cooked just right, with firm onions that weren't too crunchy. The Philly steak was outstanding as well—tender and free from any fatty or gristly bits. The restaurant was clean, with well-maintained and stylish bathrooms. Additionally, the prices were fair and reasonable. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience!

UPDATE LOL Writing a more eloquent, detailed review since the owner decided to be snarky with my previous response. My family and I (party of 6) dined in on Friday night, prime rib night! Red flag one: there were 2 other tables… on a Friday prime rib special night… Decided to let it slide, and had very high hopes. Ordered mozzarella sticks, and fried zucchini, that took a while to come out, but AGAIN, I had high high hopes after hearing endless praise about this place. Maybe the staff was busy, maybe the cooks were new, maybe, just maybe, I was being too harsh on a new restaurant out in BigLake, my home town. Our meals’ salads came before we ever saw the appetizers, but even I didn’t think it was that big of an issue, just strange. My family and I are not the pickiest of the bunch, mind you, but I do feel welcome to criticize this business to pieces after they came after my “business” (HOBBY) that I haven’t actively done in 3 years (let alone, have no public reviews for). Food arrives, this is the second time we’ve seen our waitress all night, she was kind and likely a little stressed, fully understandable. Dinner rolls were staler than a rock, stabbing it with our fork was akin to cardboard, prime rib was tough and flavorless, the chicken sandwich had… little to no chicken?? I ate a few bites before passing, as I just wasn’t a big fan. The waitress did not question why any of us hadn’t even gotten halfway through the meal OR had a full uneaten sandwich, simply commented on how “I suppose y’all don’t even want boxes?”. It’s summer so I expected a mosquito or two, not the 4 flies my family and I avoided the dive bombs of. I gave y’all a chance, was disappointed, and with how the owner is deciding to criticize me on my Google profile? I will not be returning and advising others to not do the same. I wish you all growth as a business and within your characters. Ps: not all was bad, the only thing we all finished were the mashed potatoes and sweet potato fries. Do better.
