    Stopped in on a Friday night at about 5:20 and they were already at an hour wait. We have been here…read morebefore, so we knew it was worth the wait. We were seated right at the hour mark and when we sat down to order at 6:30, they were already sold out of the special fish of the day. My husband was soooo bummed as that is what we drove almost an hour for him to eat. We started with the crawfish bread which is always AMAZING and tonight was no different. EXCELLENT as usual. I decided on the fried catfish and grits which was really good. The creamy crawfish sauce is similar to the sauce on the crawfish bread without all the cheesiness. My husband went with the crab stuffed flounder with butter sauce and green beans. While he did enjoy the flounder, he said the green beans were nothing special, lacking in flavor and pretty bland. Overall a great experience, just disappointing that the special ran out before the evening service had really even gotten started. I guess that just goes to show how good the restaurant is if they are selling out that quickly.

    I cannot believe it took me so long to try this place out! I'm already craving to go back! I'm not…read morean oyster fan, so maybe that's why I was put off by this restaurant, but I guarantee, you will love everything else they offer! I recommend making a reservation. We waited awhile for a table, but we didn't mind as we had nothing else to do. The place is on the small side, but we didn't feel cramped. From the minute we walked in, everyone was friendly and the place feels welcoming. The food... to die for!!! The stuffed crawfish bread... delicious! Crab stuffed grouper... oh my, so good! Bacon wrapped beef tenderloin... yes, please! And to top it all off, the infamous bread pudding... do NOT pass it up!!! I cannot wait to go back.

    We came at 5 pm and were seated immediately. The server took our drink and food order. The music…read moreis the right level. You can hum along but not so loud you can't talk. This is a family friendly place. We weren't overly hungry so ordered the Tri chips with Queso, salsa and Guac. Our drinks came in take out cups. Chips arrived at the same time. The trio of dips are delicious. I love queso and this is thick with seasoning on top. The quesadilla came with pico, lettuce and sour cream. It tasted just right. No complaints about the food except I was getting full. If I were here again, I would come here. Our server was the only drawback. We saw her to order and she came to refill our cup and I finally had to keep turning to find her before she'd come back. I asked for to-go boxes and she brought us those and the bill.

    We dined here for lunch on a Saturday and were seated right away. The hostess was friendly, and our…read morewaiter was nice as well. The restaurant is described as Latin/Mexican, though we noticed the kitchen staff didn't appear to be Latin or Hispanic, which stood out to us. One thing that surprised us was that chips and salsa are not complimentary. The menu itself is huge--burgers, quesadillas, bowls, fried fish, wings, and more--so it felt more like a mix of different cuisines than a traditional Mexican spot. We did order the chips and salsa, and honestly, that ended up being the best thing we had. For our entrées, I ordered the fried fish and my husband got the BBQ shrimp quesadilla. His quesadilla was extremely runny and messy, and the only flavor that really came through was the BBQ sauce it was heavily covered in. My fried fish portion was generous, but the flavor was just okay. I ended up eating only about two pieces. I also tried the blood orange margarita, which was decent but tasted like it barely had any alcohol in it. Overall, the service was pleasant, but the food and drinks didn't impress us enough to make us want to return.
