From start to finish, everything was excellent. The waitress was wonderful, very kind, always attentive. The oysters, stuffed Cajun angels, redfish, grouper, coleslaw, hushpuppies and dirty rice were all the best we have ever had. We will definitely be back more often. This was our first time there and we were definitely not disappointed.
Excellent food. Great staff and great food
I suggest everyone should try Blackwater Fins! you will not be sorry 😔
We have been here multiple times and everything we got has been absolutely AMAZING. I have to say that this is some of the best food in the county. We have never had a bad meal. Large portions, beautiful plating, high quality and top notch flavor.
