4/25/26. Here again enjoying the St John's River Bartram Frolic Fest tour and then lunch here! I'm…read moresure the restaurant tries hard to hire enough wait staff (and they do a good job) but 50 minutes wait is a lot! We did enjoy our lunch but I wish they were quicker to seat ..we took 1st available bec it was after 2pm so we thought it would not be so crowded...wrong and though there were tables inside/outside free...I think they don't have enough help!?! So we waited and took inside table

Our friends had been raving about this restaurant for years when we finally decided to drive the 90…read moreminutes to see what all the fuss was about. We should have stayed home. We walked in and asked to sit outside. I feel like this really upset the hostess because I heard a sigh and saw an eye roll. She said the table had to be cleaned. That's fine, we were happy to wait for what we anticipated would be a delicious meal. We waited 30 minutes for someone to wipe the table. Finally, another customer told the hostess that there were two clean tables and they were seated. We were then seated and were thankful the other couple noticed the availability. It's beautiful on the river! The bartender was also the server and she seemed frazzled and abrupt. We ordered quickly and the food didn't take too long to arrive, but it wasn't terribly hot. We had to ask for hot sauce twice. She forgot one of our sides and when we told her she loudly told a coworker that she had to go inside for grits. She seemed frustrated. The iced tea tasted like some kind of slightly flavored water. There was nothing extraordinary about the food. I've never seen grease under fried clams, but the grease was pooling under the entree. The greens tasted like they were from a can with no seasoning at all; hence the need for the hot sauce! The okra and tomatoes were also very bland, not unlike hospital food. We did like the coleslaw and the hush puppies. We told our friends that Corky Bell's was as awesome as they described (Lord forgive the lie), but we won't be back.

We stopped in here on 6/20/25 for dinner while RVing at Rodman Campground. Must be popular place…read morefor locals due to servers knowing customers by names. The inside of the restaurant was very nice and friendly. There were probably 6-8 sets of people there and were getting busy even more by the time we were leaving. My husband had the chimichanga plate and I ordered the Steak fajitas (they smelt delicious as others ordered them and going by our table). They were just as delicious too. The chips and salsa were great also, will say the salsa had a little kick but nothing too bad. They definitely have something for whatever you have a craving for from seafood to Mexican dishes. Will have to come back to try out some more dishes or at least I will (hubby just loves chimichangas dishes).

Been here several times and will say the service is always 100% and the food is just as well. They…read morehave many items not normally found in a Mexican style restaurant as they have a large focus on seafood, and it too was great. Very clean and bright inside, bathroom was always clean, some places neglect them and if they do, what else would they neglect cleaning..... They do chile Toreados(w/onions) for less than 3 bucks and ask for their "house" hot sauces!! Ice cold beer on draft and brewed ice tea. Yet to have a desert as the plates are always larger than able to eat at one sitting! But I would risk thy are great!! Great place, consistently great, give em a try, you won't be disappointed!!

OK I love fried shrimp, and as most folks from around here know when they think of fried shrimp…read morethey think Osteens in St. Augustine, and Osteens is indeed good, but Musselwhites is almost (within 95%) of Osteens except you don't have to wait outside for an up to an hour, they take credit cards, you can get a beer with your meal, their open on Sundays and you do not have to drive to St. Augustine. When I want fried shrimp today, Musselwhites is my goto place. Just as Osteens, the shrimp are two biters fried with a similar breading. As with Osteens, the dinners come with two sides and there is a large selections of fresh country sides to choose from. The hushpuppies are just as good as Osteens. They also serve a Menorcan seafood chowder here just as good or even better than the Osteens version and there is a fresh bottle of Dattle Sauce on the table to spice this red chowder up another notch or two if you are so inclined. We live in Green Cove, and it is about a 30 min drive to Musselwhites (one traffic light until you get to Palatka). If you love fresh Florida Fried shrimp, but don't want to deal with the hassles of Osteens, then Musselwhites just may fill the bill. I know it does for my family.
