I'm picky about my fried shrimp and it was excellent. The slaw, potato salad, and half and half tea were good also. Beautiful day to sit outside and have some lunch for a reasonable price. Christine waited on me and she was the best.

Terrible service, sat at the bar for 20 minutes before I was noticed and im not unnoticeable, blonde broad running the place was rude to customers and staff alike, food was average at best.
Great place to enjoy some drinks, listen to some great music and eat amazing food.

Very disappointed in how we were treated this past Saturday. We come here a lot, we love the food. We tip the wait staff and bar tenders VERY well, some of them recognize us and are always very nice when they see us!
Saturday there was a young band from Orlando and the bar was as crowded as I've ever seen it. No place to sit, but that's OK we decided we would stand on the outside of the fence after we buy a drink. (looked way to busy to order food, darn!)
The bar was 3 people thick and the only place to stand & place an order was on the far right of the bar. One of the waitstaff recognized us right away and asked our drink order. We heard (I assume the manager) say to her "don't do their drink order!!!". I'm thinking what did we do wrong? Then she rudly tells us to move out of the way. About 10 min goes by and then Mrs. manager rudely asks us what we want to drink. Needless to say, I'm not tipping you for treating us badly Mrs. Manager! Your $ loss!
I'm sorry it was super busy, we didn't know it would be like that until we got there. Sorry you had to take your frustrations out on us.
Then standing on the outskirts of the bar, I'm watching the bars process. They don't have the ability to serve anyone food or drinks if they are not seated somewhere. So I guess in the future if there are no seats left we should just leave?
Very disappointed in how we were treated, we live in the area and spent a lot of $$$ here.
Only bought that one drink and scooted out of there. (Very disappointed we couldn't order some of your great food, even if it were to go, and left starving)
Y'all would have made a lot more $ if we had stayed. I can drink in my boat for free, and the people in it are way nicer than Mrs. Manager treats your regulars when its too busy for her to handle it.
Superb Bloody Mary's!

It was my very first time here, on a Sunday, it was, so the daily special was all you can eat catfish. I’m not a fan of catfish, have tried it a few times, but never here, so I ordered it. It was delicious, big bites of fried catfish! Came with fries, which could have been crispier for my liking, and coleslaw, which I ended up taking home. The moscato wine was also delicious.

The blackened fish sandwich and hot wings are delicious. Beer and wine only with good assortment of Claw choices. Great local vibe along the water. Be patient with service staff. They are kind and pleasant but very busy. Sit back and enjoy the vibe and show some grace to the staff.
Vegetarian options: Great salad menu for any diet restriction.

Consistantly great fish, shrimp & gator. I understand the frog legs are great too. Since we are nearby we eat here regularly. Recent upgrades to outdoor dining areas are well done. I think their gator nuggets are the best in the region.

Wonderful outdoor atmosphere with live music. Minimal seating however. Get there early on weekends if you don't want to stand
