My husband ordered the Pac-Rim Noodle Bowl with jerk chicken, and I had the Blackened Point Loma Fish Sandwich with sweet potato fries. Both meals were fantastic. The noodle bowl was full of bold, fresh flavors, and the fish sandwich was perfectly blackened and cooked just right. The sweet potato fries were a great addition. It's refreshing to find a restaurant that's a little different from the usual fare and executes everything so well. Great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and an experience that has us looking forward to our next visit. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Brunswick.

We were greeted immediately upon entering. Everyone was nice. *Patio is cool with the large tree growing in the middle of it. * All 3 of us got a variation of the jerked chicken. * Jerked chicken tostadas were just flavorful and delicious. *Calypso nachos with the jerked chicken, the pineapple paired well and just good nachos. *Pac-rim salad with jerked chicken, big serving and a nice crunch with the cabbage Cole slaw paired with a peanut vinaigrette and the jerked chicken. Delicious. * Our serve was attentive but not over burdening. Checked in, was super pleasant, just darn right nice. *Chocolate bread pudding was recommend and it was moist and warm with a good scoop of vanilla ice cream. The caramel drizzle was the highlight for me. What could of been better: *A me thing for nachos, when piled high the bottom gets soggy before you can enjoy them. Great visit, want to come back and try some other items.

I also sat at the bar where the atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming amongst the fellow patrons, mostly longtime resident couples.

The owners are originally from Baton Rouge and they fly their mudbugs in from Louisiana! Their fried shrimp are local and wild caught, and are every bit as good as B&J's on the coast! Chicken and sausage gumbo is another favorite, boudin balls, EVERYTHING on the menu is SO GOOD!! Mike and Katie, the owners, are the nicest people you'll ever meet, and the girls who work there are, too. We live outside of Reidsville and this place is well worth the drive to Ludowici to eat some truly delicious food!

Stellar cocktails, friendly service, great views, modern design aesthetic, and incredible food. My only gripe is that they do not take reservations, though even on a Friday night, I've been able to get seated within 20-30 minutes, and you can always grab a drink from the bar and hang out on the lawn while you wait. This most recent visit, I started with the seafood chowder, one of my favorite soups on the island. Creamy, hearty, with plenty of fish, shrimp, crab, and potatoes. Shared a crabcake with my girlfriend--another solid choice, with plenty of crab, not too heavy on the filling, and with a lovely remoulade. For mains, we both had the grilled redfish, a baked potato for me, and mixed veggies for her. Perfectly cooked pieces of fish with a nice crust on the outside while still being moist and tender. Dessert this time was the chocolate pie, which was quite nice, not being too heavy nor excessively sweet. Did I mention the cocktails? I'm a big fan of the smokey mango Fiddlerita (a mezcal take on the classic marg), and the saladito a close second (again, mezcal, but with a little honey and cayenne). The girlfriend enjoys the basil smash (hold the simple syrup, please). Previously, we've tried the artichoke dip, which is also fantastic, shrimp and grits (solid, but Reid's does it better), blackened tripletail over creamy leek sauce (a special, and special indeed), and the key lime pie (excellent). You really can't go wrong here.

Service was good, you order at the counter and then they bring your food out to the table that you choose yourself. The whole restaurant is covered in Mardi Gras and UGA decorations including a dog house. Crawfish parade - 5/5, the crawfish etoufee was delicious, I didn't eat the rice because there was as so much food, but the little pie was good. The corn on the cob was tasty. Crawfish bisque was yummy, all the crawfish was so good! Chicken tenders - a little dark, so the kids didn't really like them - 2/5 Kid's shrimp - 4/5, my 11yo thought the fries were not crispy enough. They were more like steak fries Kid's grilled cheese - 4/5, my 9yo liked her grilled cheese Key Lime Pie - we would not order this again here. It was too sweet for us and the consistency of jello Beignets - too thick and not fluffy, they were not great, we would not order these again. Stick with the crawfish parade.

While we found almost everything delicious, I felt the Pasta Jambalaya was just okay, not bad, but it didn't quite reach the high standard of the other dishes. During our visit, we ordered: - Fried Chicken Benedict (poached eggs, buttermilk-soaked chicken tenders, English muffin, black pepper bacon hollandaise) - Cheryl's Fried Green Tomatoes (golden fried and remoulade) - Pasta Jambalaya (shrimp, chicken, andouille sausage, linguini and creole sauce - Shrimp and Grits (shrimp and savory Cajun sauce served over Parmesan grits) - Parmesan Garlic Grits ( These were so delicious I could have enjoyed them as a standalone dish) - Bacon - Beignets (French Style Doughnuts with Praline Sauce) these were some of the best beignets I have tasted)

We stopped here for a quick bite and beignets…read more Our meals were the Shrimp Poboy, Barbecue Shrimp, Catfish Fingers, Crab Cake Sandwich, and Parmesan Garlic Grits. The results were mixed. The Barbecue Shrimp came in a spicy sauce loaded with flavor. It came with a piece of bread that was perfect for dipping into the sauce to sop it up. There were a good number of shrimp in the serving. The Crab Cake Sandwich was good. It was not as full of lump crab meat as other crab cakes that we've had elsewhere. The Catfish Fingers were large pieces of catfish that were lightly fried. The Shrimp Poboy was satisfying. The Parmesan Garlic Grits were disappointing. There was no hint of garlic or parmesan flavor. Our server tried to rectify the situation by adding cheddar cheese to it. Fortunately, the Beignets were as good as we expected. Huey's is the only place outside of New Orleans where we have found authentic New Orleans beignets. Our server Jenelle was very friendly. At some point, something frazzled her because she seemed flustered and rattled by the time we were ready to leave. We had asked her for silverware for our beignets. It took her so long that my partner got up to get some from another table themselves because we were tired of waiting. When I asked for the check, she gave me the wrong check. She went in the back to fix it and had my debit card. She came back without the card to ask me for my zip code to finish the transaction. We asked her to bring the POS terminal to our table so that we could finish the payment.

Alligator Soul has quickly become one of our favorite restaurants in Savannah…read more The food was incredible. We had the frog legs, duck frites, a wild boar ribeye special, and the swordfish boat catch of the day. My wife actually said the wild boar was the best steak she has ever had, which shocked me because we have eaten some very good steaks over the years. They also brought us a complimentary bowl of turtle soup, which was something I never expected to try, and it was fantastic. What really separates Alligator Soul, though, is the entire experience. From the small welcome bite at the beginning of the meal to the little treat at the end, the staff makes you feel taken care of from start to finish. The hospitality, atmosphere, and attention to detail are exceptional. My wife is gluten-free, and the number of options available to her was also incredibly impressive. She never felt like she had to settle or miss out on the experience. For years, The Grey was probably our favorite place to go for a special dinner in Savannah. After our experiences at Alligator Soul, this may have taken that spot. Outstanding food, remarkable hospitality, great atmosphere, and one of the most unique dining experiences in Savannah.

Service like hers is a rare gem these days. I never thought I'd say that I like alligator. But it was part of the charcuterie board as an app, and it was delicious (along with other items such as homemade hummus, jalapeño/cheddar sausage etc) For mains, we opted for Elk special, fish special (unfortunately don't remember which one it was exactly. Maybe flounder), and Wild Bore (my personal favorite by far!!). We thoroughly enjoyed our salads, apps, and meals. And how can you say no to fresh beignets?! We had their summer special - warm peach one, and traditional. Aaaaamazing!! Atmosphere and decor were magnificent too. It's located in the basement, so it made our experience even more unique and fun.

Located in a strip mall area there's plenty of parking. They have a Louisiana/Cajun/New Orlean type cuisine Rachael was our server and was extremely helpful as well as patient with the group I was with. Since reading the reviews prior to visiting, I wanted to try the Oyster Po-Boy. On the lunch menu, they had Combos where you can order a half Po-Boy along with soup or Gumbo for $13.95. The Oyster Po-Boy added an extra $1.00. So that's what I ordered----half oyster Po-Boy with Shrimp & Corn soup. The soup tasted like it may have been homemade. It was excellent with at least 6 medium size shrimp along with a delicious corn and seafood broth. The half Po-Boy was definitely a good size packed with large fried oysters. They had a separate room which I didn't visit. I'm guessing for larger parties or overflow. I believe they also serve alcohol although I didn't see a bar when I was there. Mainly people there for breakfast, brunch or lunch.
