“I came here for a good seafood meal that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Instead of the drive thru, I decided to change it up and eat inside. Count me very surprised.

The moment I walked in, the place smelled amazing, and I was greated after I took my first step in. The staff were polite and quick to take my order. You expect fast food places to be slightly dirty inside, but this place was spotless! The decorations were well done. Good music playing. If it wasnt for the occasional sound of someome taking drive thru orders, I would have mistaken this for a traditional sit-down resteraunt.

Dont let the surrounding area fool you. This place is definitly going to be a return visit for me.“

“First time visit after hearing about this place for some time. I’d consider it a good sign that the waiting area was full and there were plenty of prepared orders waiting to be picked up. The young lady that greeted us was extremely patient as we became overwhelmed by the amazing menu and helped us by making popular menu suggestions. Good choices were made. The pork chop was amazing and the fried okra and carrot soufflé complimented it well. The chopped steak was made even better by the mashed potato’s and green beens. A selection of extra sides rounded out the meal and left us having to save our deserts, sweet potato pie & peach cobbler, until tomorrow. Mr B we will return, there is so much more of the menu to explore. Tell your daughter thanks for filling our wait with pleasant conversation.“

The drinks and food were truly top-shelf, and the service exceeded our expectations. Everything—from the atmosphere to the flavors—was outstanding. We will absolutely be regular diners here.

“First time trying this place. I did a build your own w/ 1lb headless shrimp with a couple add ons, which came out to about $30. Very delicious and fresh shrimp. I ordered online so I didn’t wait long and parking was easy during the time and day I went. I hope this place is consistent and stays around for many more years to come as I was looking for a new seafood place to replace the ones I’ve grown tired of or disappointed in. I’ll certainly come back here!“

You pay for what u get, so I don't mind spending getting great food! They have fish by pound, muscles, etc! I also saw an ebt sign that they accept, so they take all clients and accommodation for all! Customers service is great!

I had the most amazing oysters, and all of the food was AMAZING! Chicken Caesar Salad 🥗 was incredible! Kudos to the Chef(s) and staff!! 🤩🤩🤩 Jamela was my server, and she was not only ridiculously kind and welcoming, but completely knowledgeable about the entire menu, about all the locations, what to recommend and all of the different delicious sauces! She is an absolute gem 💎 . Thank you so much for seeing a tired Mom, and providing a level of GENUINE Service and kindness that I haven’t seen in quite a while. Bless you all!

“Excellent service - waiter was friendly & cheerful with us and everyone else in the restaurant. He was working by himself and he was super efficient. We both had Chile Rellano’s and they were excellent. A Chili Rellano is supposed to be covered in egg. My husband’s taco was also great. The restaurant was super clean, nice atmosphere, large menu and small portion options. We are from Central Oregon and compared to our prices, the meals were unbelievably reasonably priced. Absolutely worth checking out if you are in the area. Many locals stopping by to pick up their phone order. Always a good sign. It always feels good to support a local business.“
