Overall, the food was above average (hushpuppies and small shrimp on poboy were not impressive)…read more The main problem was they messed every order up resulting on upcharges on everything. We ordered Catfish Platter (brought Catfish and Shrimp) with Gumbo (they also brought onion rings no one ordered in the basket). Upcharges on that were 15$ including tax and tip. Ordered Red Snapper (brought Snapper and Shrimp). Upcharges on that were somewhere around 6$. They made no offer to correct it other than to "give a free Calamari next time we came". Why would I want to go back and worry they would do the same thing all over again?

I just don't understand why they can't have 2 people working at that time of day. She was answering the phone taking orders and not taking care of the in person customers. If they're worried they can make money that way. If they thought about it they would make more. We were a party of 6. Which be would make $75 - $100. Not only did they lose our business to another local business, they lost more to the same local business. We ate together.

We were completely surprised at the size of the fish they were served. These were large portions. Our grandson downed his in a heroic effort to avoid leaving some child in China hungry, the granddaughter provided our small dog with several days worth of delicious fish. I tried their dish and can say that it would have made me happy. My wife and I had the scollops and spare ribs, which seems like an odd combination, but was actually quite creative and flavorful. There was a nice serving of spareribs, nicely seasoned, surrounded by scollops that were perfectly seared (something I can never do at home, but always appreciate when dining out. Great atmosphere that's not formal but manages to also not be informal. The place has a nice rustic/modern decor.

The restaurant was clean, well-appointed, and had a welcoming atmosphere. The service was excellent--friendly, attentive, and easily the highlight of the experience. Unfortunately, that's where the good news ended for me. While the portions were generous, I found the food to be pretty bland. Everything we ordered seemed to rely entirely on the flavor of whatever was being fried rather than any seasoning in the batter itself. The shrimp, catfish, and oysters were all cooked well enough, but they just lacked flavor. Even the fried okra, which is usually one of my favorites, was disappointing. If you're looking for large portions of simply prepared fried seafood, this may be your kind of place. For me, though, the food just didn't have the seasoning or flavor I was hoping for. I left wishing it had been better, and unfortunately, I don't see myself returning.
