It was our first time visiting the restaurant to have a birthday dinner. We had a delicious meal and so friendly service.
Recommended by Becky @ Heirloom Fabrics. Delicious lemon flounder and coconut shrimp. Best hushpuppies! Reasonably priced and worth more!
A must for seafood lovers. Best local place in Ptown. The prices are extremely reasonable and the portions are large. Always great service.
I requent there every Sat. after church for the early bird dinner and bring grandkids. I highly recommend and making reservations is something to consider. Check hours of operation if not going on a Sat. as they open at 5pm but one can call after 3 as someone is there then.
This place is like finding a hidden treasure that you want to share with everyone but at the same time, it’s so wonderful that you almost want to just keep this gem to yourself. Such a wonderful experience. The food is exceptional! I had the Rotisserie Chicken off the “Early Bird” menu. The rice that it’s served with is very tasty, will order again!! Also want to add, I tried some of the salmon as well & loved it. They serve warm hushpuppies with plenty of butter while waiting on your meals. For dessert I had the cheesecake with raspberry drizzle, so good. All the cheesecake is homemade there & definitely worth trying!
I'm coming back tomorrow for dinner! The food, service, ambience and friendly locals made me feel like I was home. These places just don't exist anymore. The early bird special was mind blowing as for the amount of food for the price. I had the fried flounder, broccoli and baked potato. Everything was perfect. The banana Cheesecake was unbelievably good!
Family run restaurant for over 37 years same location. Prices are very reasonable and food is very good. Found this place by accident and have been referring to everyone I know. Reservations are advised as they fill up quickly. Owners are very friendly and personable. I highly recommend this place for either lunch or dinner.
Just moved here and found this little gem. Food was great as well as the service.
Went there on a Saturday when they had specials which were under their regular prices of course, they look appetizing but I did choose a regular menu grilled item and it was good. My friend got one of the fried specials and it looked better than mine but maybe that's preference. The cinnamon bread pudding was excellent
This place is a hidden gem. Food was great and the price was remarkable. Blackened tuna filet over rice with two sides and hush puppies for nine bucks...get outta here!!! What a great deal and that's only one of the lunch specials available at that price. Hurry on over. I'll definitely be back again.
