The BEST food!!!! I have eaten here twice and have gotten the shrimp and grits both times. The best I have ever had!!!! This time we got dessert too…peanut butter and chocolate pie and salted caramel cheesecake. I could have eaten my weight in both! We have been home for a day and I am ready craving it all and can’t wait to go back!! Also love the quiet atmosphere and the view of the water. My husband got the prime rib and he said it was delicious.

Delicious! The view was amazing and our server was great!

Beautiful view,beautiful friendly folks and I must say food was delightful! 10 outta 10! Waitress Izabella was also very kind and super friendly and prompt. she also gives good recomendations on what to try! I stopped here on a whim was passing through this town as staying in Jacksonville for the week for work. I must say may stop in again was so good! Waitress recommended the Covina pan fried ..... First time I have ever had....I must say I'm a little obsessed with it now. ...read full review
