Very good shrimp and oyster Poboy. The only caution is the Poboy is huge and a bit pricey.

Don’t think I ever made a 1 star review before. They were super busy and it took a while for our food to get out but that’s ok since they were busy. Benefit of the doubt. 20 bucks for a frozen country fried steak and water downed gravy is just straight up ridiculous. Worst country fried steak I had in my life. A Walmart frozen meal is better than that.

My son and I stopped here on a Sunday prior to our fishing trip in Venice. We watched the football game on the TV and were the only ones there. I had the shrimp on the bun and he had a cheeseburger po'boy and both were out of this world. Great service and everyone was so friendly. Hope to make it back sometime soon.

Food was tasty and fresh. Heather who was working the counter was friendly and provided great service. Everyone should stop here to eat local. Yummy 😋

We were working locally and ate here 6 times in 4 days. There are not many option locally but the food is great and people are friendly with a good sense of humor. Don’t sleep on the Specials

The food was awful. To say that place in a spot where they can get fresh fish and or saefood, dad's make louisiana look bad as far as food.. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy..

There were not very many people in the restaurant/bar, but it took a long time for our food to arrive. I ordered onion rings and fried mushrooms. The mushrooms were over fried and raw frozen mushrooms on the inside. I asked waitress to remove from our ticket and when we got back, I realized she had not taken them off.

Husband and I stopped in to eat dinner & was looking forward to the seafood platter with fish, shrimp and oysters. Husband didn’t want oysters so he substituted for extra fish and shrimp per waitress. When the waiter brought the meal, she said, each one down in front of us & Asked if we needed any condiments I said tartar, sauce, and cocktail sauce. She said we’re out of cocktail sauce. as I was looking at my meal, I noticed I had about nine shrimp, three pieces of fish and no oysters, toast instead of hush puppies. Husband had two pieces of fish six shrimp. He went to the counter and asked the waitress where the oysters were and she said oh we are out of oysters, that’s why we gave her extra Shrimp. She never bothered to let us know ahead of time they were out of oysters & cocktail sauce, Or gave us the option to place a different order. She never offered to discount our meal either. My purpose for getting a seafood platter is to eat the oysters. I can fry fish and shrimp at my home. So for two fish and shrimp platters it was approximately $68. Then they set they’re a little Computer for certain amount of tip with no way to change it so grand total was $75 almost $76. Felt very cheated! Won’t ever go back there to eat!

I was heading home after stopping at a few places and I was getting hangry. I do love to go off the beaten path for meals when I can. Walking in from the bright sun, I had to let my eyes adjust for a moment. I was promptly greeted, told to sit anywhere and given a menu. I got the shrimp platter and I think the shrimp was so fresh it hit on me! It was great! Reasonable prices, fast service. I would recommend to anyone in the area!
