We were searching for a restaurant…read moreto eat at on the water at center hill lake on a Tuesday and every place seemed to be closed with the exception of this restaurant. The menu is fairly diverse but no fancy meals here. Chicken tenders, catfish, shrimp, burgers and salads. Everyone in our party of 6 was happy and would eat there again without hesitation. If you find yourself on the lake needing a place to eat give them a try.

Good atmosphere & great scenery. Best fried pickles I've ever been served…read more My group consisted of 3 couples (6 individuals total). Even when we rarely go out for boat days (usually in priest or old hickory) we avoid packed outdoor food venues, but it wasn't too bad on a Sunday afternoon here. No wait & plenty of outdoor seating with ample space between tables. One thing all of us mask wearers noticed was that the staff & servers were not masked at all, they didn't even have masks on them, & very few of the patrons coming & going had mask on either. Must be due to the geopolitical views of the people in the area. This concerned me & I kept my mask on the entire time except while eating since the staff were not masked & walking by closely and often. I won't let that factor into the review but it needs to be noted for others who look here for guidance. There were several drink specials & food specials made known to us by our server immediately & he was quick to fill our drink orders of mango habanero bloody marys & pontoon punch which are both highly recommend by our party. I ordered some fried pickles to split up & they are very different & exceptionally good. They are slivers of pickle spears fried in a manner that resembles fried green beans. Everybody raved about them & they were gone quickly. One order was almost enough to share for 4-5 people. Half of the party ordered club sandwiches & the other half ordered burgers & fish tacos. The fish tacos were stated to be better than Sams on old hickory & as good as some served on the Florida panhandle in PCB, Pensacola, Destin etc. the club sandwich was nothing to write home about, pretty basic & fairly bland. The Mac & cheese is well above average & could make the cut of the top 10 I've had in the middle Tennessee area. IMPORTANT NOTE. THEY CHARGE A 20% gratuity for parties of 6 or more. If I was on the lake I'd probably come back, I'd expect to see masks on the staff though.

She told us it was lost and asked if we still wanted it, told her we were ok but it was brought out anyway. Very disappointed in the high dollar appetizer and dining experience. Also, why don't the servers have sections instead of taking turns with customers....seems like it would be easier to give the servers sections instead of every 3rd or 4th table, which seems like it would be difficult to keep up with. Very disappointing and not worth the $$$ it costs!

All of that came to 100 bucks including 2 drinks. For the price, you don't get alot of food due to lack of combos as everything is purchased separately. Nice seating areas but not good for groups of more than 4 people. The po boy wasn't good as it was small and was dry as can be. Potato salad wasn't good at all to much mustard and tasted more like a slaw than potato salad. The soup was the best thing. Two hours after eating here and we were both in the bathroom non stop for the rest of the day and night so we got some kind of food poisoning probably from the oysters they didnt seem very cold like they should be.
