This place is a diamond in the rough! We came here after my wife had saw it on FB. We were finally without kids and decided to try it. I got the cheeseburger & fries and my wife got the fish & chips. Best burger I've had in a long time, it took both hands to pickup. My wife also enjoyed her fish.The owner is very personable.
The only drop in score is the atmosphere, but they are working on it.
I will be coming back!

This is our new favorite place! We had a boil with shrimp and crab legs, a crab cake sandwich, a burger, and queso with crawfish tails in it and it was AMAZING! 10/10 recommend!!
