“We just had the most amazing experience here. This was an absolute bucket list item for my husband to take an air boat tour and see live gators and this business did not disappoint. Anthony our boat captain was knowledgeable and witty. He made our experience both educational and fun. After we returned we had delicious food served by some of the most friendly servers I have ever encountered. Ingrid and Brittany made our dining experience so much more enjoyable due to their friendly and inviting attitudes and their knowledge of the menu. Thank you soooo much for one of our most memorable experiences during our trip to Florida. We will definitely return should fate bring us back this way and would recommend this experience to anyone who happens to be in the area. Also Tuff & Beau the owner 2 retrievers were precious and definitely deserve their own shout out!!! Also bonus points for having the cleanest restrooms I have had the pleasure or using since landing in florida.“

“Went to dinner after work with a friend and, after ordering our drinks and appetizer, I realized my phone was missing. After searching, we discovered it had somehow fallen between the half wall and booth in a spot that was extremely difficult to reach.

The hostess and manager immediately stepped in to help. They went above and beyond by checking what they had available, even heading to the kitchen to grab the longest tongs they could find in an attempt to retrieve it. When that didn’t work, they continued helping us figure out a solution. While my friend and I were discussing where we could buy a grabber tool nearby, the manager came back with one and was able to successfully retrieve my phone.

I unfortunately didn’t catch their names, but I want to make sure their kindness and willingness to help are recognized. They could have easily said there wasn’t anything they could do, but instead they took the time to assist and turned what could have been a very stressful situation into a positive experience.

Thank you to the hostess, manager, and our server for taking such great care of us. Your kindness and effort did not go unnoticed!“

“We arrived for some lunch not long before closing and the staff were very kind and seated and fed us. I am celiac and ordered the gluten free pancakes (the penny stack - huge and delicious! 😋) with bacon and home fries and they were very attentive to cross contamination. Thank you!“
