We had been here last year on vacation and enjoyed it, so we decided to go again this year. Our server was wonderful and we both enjoyed our food and drinks. I had catfish. However, later that night I was extremely ill. My husband had to buy me medications/Pepto Bismol, etc and I was up for 4+ hrs with pain and GI symptoms. I still felt ill the next day and couldn’t eat without feeling ill. It actually took several days before I was back to normal. This was a very distressing experience and disappointing to be on vacation and have this happen. We won’t ever be going back!

This was our first visit to this establishment. We were a party of 4 being 2 couples with the same wedding anniversary. Our server Paula was very welcoming immediately, she explained the menu and drink specials and answered all our questions and made recommendations. She did this with a sense of humor and a lot of personality. Our food was amazing and Paula kept checking in on us to see if we needed anything. I don't think anything could have been improved upon. We left happy and with bellies full. It was a great dinner and we will be back!

Hush puppies and salad A+. Cheese grits cold, clumping and definitely a day old. Huge piece of blackened grouper semi warm and lost it’s appeal on those cold grits. Server was great but I suspect some of the kitchen protocols were lost over the holiday Sunday. Very clean establishment so mixed feelings.

Ordered the $55 AYCE crab legs. The were overcooked and even with owner getting involved the meat had to be scraped out with my fingernails. Try something else on the menu for a better review.
