It was our first time going, and we weren’t sure what to expect, but as we were pulling in the parking lot, a man rolled down his window and told us the food was awesome and to try the pork chops. We tried the simple starter. Bread, oil, and herbs. Simple but flavorful! Highly recommend I had the side summer salad and Krioyo pasta. The salad, no joke, was amazing. Full of color and flavor, might be the best salad I’ve ever eaten. The pasta was a generous serving, creamy and spicy with sausage and shrimp, full of flavor! My husband had the pork chops, cheese grits, and fries (I wish he got the collards instead of the fries, but it *was* his meal, so…). The cheese grits were a delicious surprise to me. So, so, so good. If we go back, I’m definitely ordering them (and the collards). The pork chops were, true to our parking lot critic’s word, awesome. I will definitely return. The atmosphere was laid back and wonderful, the food delicious, and the team members were fantastic. 10 out of 10 recommend! I’ve included pictures in the comments, because I love real life pics of food!

We always love to find the local joints that are out of the way because they always seem to be the best. Today was no exception. We traveled over to Port Washington FL about a little over an hour from East Milton for a little quiet day at Eden State Park which was an excellent little visit. As always we needed food so I explored the map and found this place in Grayton Beach. All I really want to say is best choice we've ever made on the fly. Food...Top Notch... Service...Top Notch.. Atmosphere... Quaint and quiet and slightly elegant with a twist of Creole Americana. Megan our server could not have been more pleasant, attentive and a pleasure to have. Food was divine. Just a list of what we had and some pics. That should cover it. Shrimp & Grits, Shrimp Tacos with YumYum sauce and Not your Mama's chicken & rice. All were excellent, fresh and were very filling portions. So much so we had to take our Key Lime pie to go. We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

This place used to be great but now is just good. Ownership changed and food quality has gone way down. Prices are sky high too. The $18 Chanticleer grilled cheese used to be stacked with bacon on fresh baked Rosemary bread. Now it is two slices of limp bacon on subpar limp bread. The Reuben was once so tall with corned beef, now is only slightly better than a Publix sub. Cutting corners while raising prices has become the norm and that’s a shame.

I almost don't want to say how amazing this place is because it may be super busy the next time I visit, but it is amazing. Every person at my table loves their food. Their spinach maria side is the best anyone at the table had ever had. I had the shrimp Po boy and it was awesome. Fresh veggies on a toasted roll. The food and service are incredible!

Visited here for dinner while spending the week here in FL at the beach. Pretty disappointing meal. The food was okay, but everything else about the experience was subpar. The menu prices were a little too inflated. The ambiance of the restaurant would remind you more of a mexican restaurant, not an expensive seafood restaurant. Must also be a cheap owner, with a $7 credit card fee and automatic gratuities applied to the bill. Waitress was okay, not great as many of us had unfilled glasses the majority of the time.

We came here because of the mostly amazing reviews, but I would steer clear of this place.
