Delicious food! Amazing fluffy and tasty homemade cornbread baked in a cast iron skillet. The best greens you’ll ever eat! They are seasoned to perfection. We have fried catfish and shrimp. They were incredible and fresh. We will be back soon. Very reasonable prices. Friendly staff and quick service.
Seated promptly. Server was attentive and pleasant. Food was fine; nothing remarkable, but nothing specific to complain about. Large portions at a fair price.
However.... one of our bread plates still had rice on it and a sliver of carrot. Our server immediately replaced it with a clean one when we pointed it out. The salt shaker was sticky. And the pepper is too large of a grind to come out of the holes in the pepper shaker (a personal pet peeve of mine).

I was waiting for my dive boat to come in and this was the closest restaurant to the dock. The portions were huge. Giant iron pan of excellent cornbread. Good selection of American comfort foods. Good fish. Very reasonable price. Excellent service. Clean facilities.
