Great place to eat, had the 3 fish 3 shrimp 3 crab cakes, tasted great, really hot so much food I couldn’t believe it , giant cokes with refills, if you love to eat this is the place!
Wow! That’s what I have to say after eating there yesterday. I’m a fried fish fan but I ordered half grilled. The peppers and onions appeared to be fresh, not from a frozen mixture. They were sliced thin enough that only a small amount of grilling released the flavor and aroma to whet the appetite!
Not only that but the wait staff went out of their way to make us comfortable.
I’ll be going back!
Excellent food and great service. The portions are huge and the prices are very reasonable!
