Great food for a great price my family and I order from here all the time. We order the catfish 12 piece family meal. It's a little dated, so we don't dine there. The food, however, is excellent.

We've been here twice and each time has been great! We were just looking for a place to eat one day and Sam's came up and we decided to go. I was pleasantly surprised by the big menu they had. Food was great both times we have been. Will come back anytime for lunch or dinner!

If you live around here, you probably already know that it is the place, for fresh seafood, fried or grilled. If you are passing through. it is definitely worth the stop! Fresh, clean, dry, and excellent red beans and rice.

Fried fresh, hot, and appetizing!My review is based off a first impression.Don't let the quite basic interior (mostly wood) cause any wrong perceptions. There are a few frames or artwork, with a TV and music for dining entertainment. The unused bar area at the front could use some spirit, but for a Friday night, their dining room was pretty packed. Good indication!Yep, their great fried food hit the spot! We called in for a pick-up order: shrimp, crab cakes, fish, hush puppies, and fries with a side of fried oysters. I was craving those fried oysters. They aren't dinky little pieces either. They serve up some pretty large shrimp too. Of all the fried goodies we ate, I'd definitely have their oysters, shrimp and fish again!
