RUDE EMPLOYEES, RUDE MANAGEMENT, AND TERRIBLE FOOD! If I…read morecould give this place ZERO stars, I absolutely would! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE unless you enjoy paying $54 for the same mediocre food you could get for FREE at a hotel breakfast! We are on a FAMILY VACATION and stopped here expecting a decent meal. Instead, we were met with some of the rudest employees and management I have ever encountered. Let me explain. Our party consisted of 4 adults, 3 children between the ages of 3 and 6, and our 1-year-old twins. We needed 7 chairs and 2 high chairs. After ordering our food through the cafeteria line, we headed to the indoor seating area, which was completely EMPTY. An employee had two separate tables with the high chairs placed at the end. I politely asked if we could push the tables together so our entire family could sit together, especially since our twins share food. Her response? They weren't allowed to move the tables because of management. EXCUSE ME?! The entire seating area was empty! I explained that it would have been nice to know that BEFORE we ordered our food. We are on a family vacation, and the last thing we expected was to be treated like an inconvenience for simply wanting our family to sit together. She then proceeded to push the tables together while making a scene, saying she would just "take the heat from management." She also told us that if we wanted to sit together, we should have gone to Sisters Restaurant around the corner because they accommodate larger parties. Are you SERIOUS?! So we're being told to take our business somewhere else because we have children and want to sit together? Absolutely ridiculous! After finally getting the tables together, we began trying to get everyone settled. Keep in mind, we had THREE young children and ONE-YEAR-OLD TWINS to get situated. The employee then had the audacity to tell us our food was going to be cold because we were taking too long to sit down before storming off. WHAT KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THAT?! A few minutes later, two other employees came back, looked at our tables, and literally HUFFED because they had been pushed together. At this point, I had ENOUGH. I went to ask for someone in charge because the disrespect and unnecessary attitude from the employees were completely unacceptable. And management was somehow EVEN WORSE! As I tried to explain what had happened, the response I received was, "Well, your tables are together, so what's your deal?" MY DEAL?! Your employees have been rude, made snarky comments, told us we should have eaten somewhere else, and made us feel completely unwelcome when we were simply trying to enjoy a meal with our family! When I explained that the employees were continuing to make rude comments and complain about the tables, the manager literally YELLED OUT, "STAY AWAY FROM THAT TABLE!" Not once did anyone apologize. Not once did anyone attempt to make the situation right. Just pure attitude, disrespect, and absolutely ZERO customer service. And let's talk about the FOOD, because after all of that, you would at least hope the food was worth the $54 we spent. IT WAS DISGUSTING! This place claims to serve homemade food, but the eggs tasted like fake, powdered eggs, and the biscuits tasted like frozen biscuits straight out of a package. Honestly, I've had better breakfasts at a FREE hotel continental breakfast! We paid $54 for a meal that was nowhere near worth the money, dealt with employees who acted like we were a burden for simply being there, and received absolutely no apology from management. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE! If you enjoy being treated like an inconvenience, being talked down to by employees, getting yelled at by management, and paying restaurant prices for frozen, low-quality food, then by all means, give this place a try. Otherwise, SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE! Family vacations are meant to be enjoyed, and no family should have to deal with this kind of unnecessary disrespect just to eat a meal together. Absolutely unacceptable from start to finish!

This creamy, rich, and brimming with tender crawfish bites. This dip seems tailor-made for scooping with tortilla chips and every spoonful is a flavor wave you won't want to miss. And that fish basket? Fried to absolute perfection--not soggy, not greasy--just crispy, golden fish paired with the perfect crunch. It hits that comfort note hard without any of the soggy let-down. Not salty or over seasoned perfection at its finest. We also got the cajun chicken Philly plenty of chicken in every bite! Definitely a good choice if you want a seafood break. The whole place oozes that no-frills, friendly Cajun charm. Whether you're grabbing lunch between adventures or leisurely sipping a cold brew while live music hums nearby, this spot delivers.

He's the Jamaican bartender another reviewer mentioned, and I can definitely see why. He was friendly, attentive, and made our experience even better. The drinks were, to say the least... oh my! A few sips in, and I could definitely feel the alcohol doing its job. The Rum Runners and piña coladas were both delicious. We ordered the blackened fish tacos, and they were excellent as well. The covered outdoor patio has a fun, laid-back atmosphere, and they feature live music on weekend evenings, which adds to the experience. Everyone we encountered was welcoming, helpful, and genuinely friendly, with the kind of hospitality you usually only find in the South. We had such a great experience that coming back a second time was an easy decision, and we'd happily return again the next time we're in town.

For the price and quality of the food, it isn't worth almost $30 to pay for a shrimp taco that I asked to be blackened so that they could put soggy pico de gallo on it. The shrimp was mushy because it was probably frozen. My husband got shrimp too, and he had to send it back because it was mushy as well, and the slaw was warm and brown. Overall, this place is a tourist trap; there are plenty of seafood places with great, quality food and drinks that are much cheaper.

Indoors, not a lot going on. Lots of TVs but none on the Braves (rain delay maybe). Will definitely be back. Can't wait to try the wings and some of the different sauces.

Best Fried Chicken in Panama City or Panama City Beach -- truly!…read more This is THE fried chicken: perfectly seasoned, thickly breaded, explosively crisp! Absolute YUM. But then... the sides... Who serves fried chicken and doesn't offer chicken gravy for the mashed potatoes? I asked, and the reply was: "We have brown and white." Brown and White??? That's a fried‑chicken sin. And the sin deepened when the "mashed potatoes" turned out to be so watery they could practically be served in a cup. I mentioned it to the waitress, who explained, "We use a mix of instant and real potatoes." OH‑kaaay. My response: "Way too much water." Meanwhile, I'm wondering where the butter and cream went. For reference: I took a skinny straw and actually sucked the potatoes through it. That's how thin they were. The vegetables, however, were genuinely delicious -- classic Southern style and well prepared. A surprise hit: the fried hoecakes. Imagine Jiffy sweet corn muffin mix dropped by the scoop full into the fryer. Oddly enough, they were even better dipped into the "brown" gravy (which tasted suspiciously like modified yeast extract). Look, I understand stretching product and using convenience items. But if you're going to cut corners, do it on pre‑slicing the desserts -- not on the core of a Southern plate. My suggestion to the owners: Lean into what you do exceptionally well -- that phenomenal fried chicken. Sell it by the bucket! I'll come buy it! Trim the sprawling buffet, reinvest in real mashed potatoes with butter and cream, make real gravies, and offer a rotating blue‑plate menu. Do fewer things excellently instead of trying to be an "everything" restaurant and missing the mark on the basics. The chicken is worth the trip. The sides could be, too, with a little love.

Panama City, FL , Sept. 2026 I would give less than one star…read moreif I could, but I needed to get this comment out there. Website has this at 4.6 stars.... Couldn't be further from the truth. First, the service was mediocre at best. Our server took our order, brought our drinks and took our food order. Two other runners brought our food.... One was a side order of hush puppies for my entrée. I ordered the hush puppies on the recommendation of my server and it was absolutely horrible. Nothing like she described and fried in very dark oil. Horrible! The runner who brought that out said, I'm sorry it was the last of the batch! This was at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Have they already run out of hush puppies before they close at 9 pm? Their seafood gumbo, advertised as "made daily" was mostly bay scallops and okra. I ordered the grilled grouper sandwich. It came out with absolutely no condiments for a grouper sandwich, such as mayo or tartar sauce. Our server took some time to come over to check how things were so I waited to eat until I could flag her over to ask for some mayo. Believe me good things are not worth the wait! The grilled grouper was so salty. I couldn't even finish it. To add insult to injury, our server added the cost of the inedible hush puppies, which was the side order to my entrée, separately on our bill. She apologized and confirmed that was in error. Never Again and their high rating must be bogus.
