Had a really great lunch here the other day. The fish sandwiches are huge and delicious. The mussels were great also. And thanks toothed waitress for recommending a local IPA to me. Very good. We are thinking on moving to this area and this would be one of our regular favorites to patronize!

Atmosphere was authentic old timey Florida coastal restaurant inside. We loved it and we loved the food. The the server was on time. She checked back just when we needed her to, was friendly, but not overly so. We wish the restaurant was closer to us instead of an hour away or we’d be here much more often. Even so it was worth the hour drive. Smoked fish dip was a great start to the evening. I could’ve eaten it all night. LOL. But, I’m glad I left room for an entree. I had the fresh Florida lobster which I hadn’t had since my grandmother used to cook it because I didn’t want to have it somewhere where people didn’t know how to cook it. I knew enough by the reviews that they knew what they were doing. I was not disappointed. My husband’s shrimp and crab mixture was five star as well.

Visiting from out of state and dropped in. We were told a 40 minute wait, but it was more like 20. Service was impeccable. Our server was Russell M. We ordered the Onion Straws, Lobster Alfredo pasta and Shrimp tacos. Everything was delicious. The food was cooked perfectly and presented well. Russell provided great service by refilling drinks and bringing additional ranch for onion strings. He offered feedback for suggestions and provided service with a smile. If we're ever in the area again, we'll certainly drop in. Thanks for the good experience.

We’ve visited at least four times now, and overall the experience has been relatively good. Like many restaurants, though, Mondays and Tuesdays don’t seem to be the best days to go. When the place is busy, the food doesn’t always taste as fresh, and the waitstaff can struggle to keep up with demand. On those days, food can take 25+ minutes to reach the table, and small things like bringing silverware sometimes get overlooked.
The portion sizes are decent for the price, so the value is fair. The main issue we’ve noticed is consistency. Some days the food is amazing, and other days it’s just okay, so it feels a bit unpredictable depending on when you visit.

This place was packed on a Friday at lunch. Menu offers something for everyone. Market fresh fish was great. We had the sandwich and the fish tacos. Neither disappointed. Portion sizes were generous and just about everyone went home with something left over. The clam chowder was good. Service was fast & friendly.

Literally the WORST service and food was not good. After 45 min waiting, the food arrived cold, the portions were extremely small and the plate came half empty. The manager treated us terribly and was extremely rude. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who wants to have a nice meal with good service. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

Miranda gave us great service. The burger that I ordered however was a little under done. Medium rare vs medium. And ordered grilled onions which I didn't get. But the rest of the food was enjoyed by all.

I was recommended here for dinner. My conch order was super small. But worse my soup I ordered did not come out before or with it.I sent the small conch plate back. My wife asked for no onions on the hamburger but there was onion on it. Had to ask a few times to get my initial waitress. Then I barely saw her again. Another waitress had to take the conch order back and even bring me my check. I think they had my waitress working inside and outside. No dogs allowed re their cats walking around. My clam chowder soup was good. One and done

Almost everything we ordered came out very subpar. Long time fans of 12a but it has gone down hill and we will not be coming back. Not to mention it’s expensive for unpleasant quality.
