    We stopped in for dinner. The place is really clean and the staff is very friendly. The food was mediocre. My husband ordered the catfish sandwich with a fillet the size of a blue gill. His fries were fresh! I ordered the fillet dinner. I think maybe we are just used to getting huge pieces of catfish, because I also found my fillets to be small. I ordered green beans and baked beans for my sides. The baked beans were good. The green beans were at room temperature and over cooked. Everything was just flat, missing that something extra. It was nice to try some place new. We may have tried dessert, but our check was brought out before we could order it, so I guess we should be thankful we were spared.

    A local place that packs out on Friday and Saturday. They know how to cook catfish! We enjoy treating my husband's parents when we visit.

    Best fried seafood spot I've had so far in this area. The service is quick and kind. The restaurant has a homey mom and pop feel with dimmer lights which is something I personally enjoy. They get out food quick so you're never waiting too long, but don't let that fool ya. Your food is hot, fresh, & ready to burn your mouth if you're too quick! Give it a minute to cool down. The catfish is sooooooo good! I thoroughly enjoy the catfish, the cheese grits, the okra, & the hush puppies every single time. My husband loveeeees the coleslaw, but I am personally not a fan. It's just extremely fine and I'm more of a crunch girl myself. I really enjoyed the key lime pie as it was actually lime flavored and packed a punch. The crust was tasty as well! If you've got the stomach for it, I recommend the all you can eat as it's a great deal at less than $26 for catfish and shrimp! They keep it coming and your two sides can be interchangeable! I recommend a sweet tea with your meal! It's really good and I love that they keep a pitcher at your table for your own refills. They'll make ya one to go too if you'd like!

    We had a good time, fun atmosphere and great hospitality. Clean and easy parking. Had the boiled shrimp appetizer, yummy! Had the cup of gumbo, very tasty. We ordered catfish with shrimp, or oysters . I truly loved the large fried oysters, the shrimp was excellent. Obviously the catfish is the house speciality and it was good. Loved the fresh clean taste and the breading was wonderful. Thank you for dinner we'll come back!

Don't not come here- no feeding alligators either! They don't care either- they don't see anyone but themselves and excuses. Btw it was the waitress fault. The woman in charge- kept saying we only make it when it's entered- it's the waitress. Ok if the waitress just would've said- after I entered your appetizer of crab claws- I forgot to put your order in! But to keep lying? So the fried shrimp was OLD and fishy taste! They were gross. The amount of money you pay is NOT worth the tiny scrapes of food you get! The children's meal was tiny balls of chicken! McDonald's had bigger pieces! Our bill came out to 165.00 We left a 9 dollar tip and got the heck out of there! Worst resturant ever experience in Florida! Mind you we waited all YEAR for them to open! My mother in law said it used to be better! People are in line for this? When we did get our food, we were told it's cause flounder takes longer to cook. Uh huh- cause you have to go out there catch it and then cook it right? Our waitress Trisha! Was the worst in communication of where our food was- after 5 times asking!

We sat outside, enjoyed the live music, and the atmosphere was perfect for a group celebration. Service was quick and attentive, especially considering how busy they were. Food wise, the pimento cheese dip was unfortunately not a hit for our group. It had a very thick, almost paste like consistency and was difficult to spread. I also ordered the corn and crab bisque, and personally was not a fan of the sweeter flavor. For my meal, I ordered the summer salad and absolutely loved it. I finished every bite. Our server also highly recommended the first three fish options on the menu, and everyone who ordered fish completely cleaned their plates. Portion sizes were very generous. The only issue we had was the bride's steak being overcooked, but the manager personally came over, addressed it, and made sure everything was taken care of. Overall, great atmosphere, live music, generous portions, and solid service. A fun spot for groups and celebrations!

My dinner along with my dinner mates meal all enjoyed ever bit. The. Appetizer was oysters on a half shell with very taste sauces even the horse radish sauce was pleasant per report. The drinks were refreshing and excellent. The mixologist at the bar did a fantastic job Due to an error in our bar orders we were actually provided our first order on the house. An unexpected but much appreciated sign of impeccable service. The Citrus Ginger Salad was very good, it contains chick peas, Quinoa and a whole lot more. The grilled asparagus was crisp, just a hint of salt and no strings and not tough It was a very satisfying meal choice My dinner mates ordered calamari, grilled shrimp scallops and a few of the specials. Every dish was served with a flourish and with great flavor, Alesha continued to provide excellent service through our last bites of food. I'm looking forward to my next opportunity to visit again.

Once we were seated, our server Rick was right there. He is pretty funny so ask for Rick on the weekends. He gave us some great ideas and we went with what he suggested. We had the Grits A Ya Ya and the Catfish Meuniere. The grits were probably some of the best we have had. They were creamy, smooth and cheesy all at the same time. The shrimp were cooked to perfection and made that dish rock. The catfish had a pecan crust and the sauce that was over it made it an amazing dish. For dessert, we had an amazing bread pudding and key lime pie. The only this about the desserts that need correcting is the green sauce on the key lime pie. It doesn't do anything for the pie .

This spot is unassuming -- almost deceiving based on appearances -- but don't judge a book by its cover. The food is GOOD. For example, the chicken tenders are seasoned to perfection. You can tell the marinade wasn't rushed. Flavor all the way through, not just on the surface. You will not go wrong with the Grits YaYa. Looking back at my previous review, I ordered it last time too. Normally I'd try something different, but I'm not even mad that I circled back for the same dish. That says a lot. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the boat dock and the Bay Bridge -- a nice view whether you're with family or on a date night. Definitely add this one to the list.

The chicken Alfredo was also ok. The sauce wasn't very flavorful and the chicken a bit chewy as well. The garlic knots had a strange after taste. The pulled pork sandwich didn't have any bbq sauce on it. The onion rings were excellent. Dessert was a chocolate cake cup that was yummy! I have to say I have never had a worse margarita in my life. It was loaded with tequila, which is awesome, but it had sour mix and some strange lime syrup in it. It almost tasted like something you'd put on a snow cone. It was terrible. Also, the acoustics in this place are horrible. Sound carries so bad, it is very difficult to hear anyone even right next to you. I would say this is much more of a party spot than a good place to take the family out to eat. I would come back for that type of vibe and not order a margarita :)
