    Catfish, shrimp, hush puppies, and red beans & rice.
    C Daniel C.

    I had been wanting to try this place since I saw its sign go up a month or two ago. I have to say I was thoroughly impressed and really enjoyed my dinner. The catfish had just the right amount of breading, way too many places have way too much and too little fish, and the fried shrimp was excellent, I also really enjoyed the side of red beans and rice that came with my meal.

    Wings and roll were definitely overcooked. I had the whole catfish last week and it was delicious. But, today I'm disappointed.

    Burnt. Very disappointed. The whole catfish last week was great. This is not. The order smelled like burnt oil.

    The catfish was tough I couldn't cut it with a metal fork. The service was fine the restaurant had only one other table very quiet and slow for a Saturday. My dinner didn't look like the nice stock photo, not even hush puppies, the salad doesn't look like the stock photo and the taste wasn't anything special for the $30 we paid for a hamburger and the fish dinner. Plus they charge extra to grill it?!

    Ticket

    Food was iffy. Very hot in resturant. What upset us is they change prices. When I confronted them, they stated they add taxes on amount. So 3 of us got an item at 16.95. Mine was 17.50 when others were 17.12 and 17.99. Added over dollar on husbands plate. I wondered why he took forever at register to get tickets. Seemed to be adding money on prices. If it's a price on menu and big board on wall then you charge that price. Tickets also have sales tax on them. Cheating on prices. Check tickets well.

    The kids meal was huge and all the other plates were definitely shareable. Take the whole family and enjoy!

    The food was fresh, hot and delicious! I've tried the fried fish, shrimp, oysters and crab cakes all excellent! The oysters and shrimp are huge by the way! The service was exceptional. They are always smiling and happy to see you. Wonderful ambiance with good vibes! I almost forgot but the kids meal is huge and all the other plates are definitely shareable and priced great.

    Grilled Fish with veggies, coleslaw and corn fritters.

    This is my second time visiting. Service was great again, Owner goes above and beyond and food is always good with reasonable prices for the amount of food. My nephew had a great birthday dinner.

    The food was AWESOME! my daughter got the burger and fries, and my son and I got the catfish and fries and red beans and rice. We also ordered appetizer that had fried pickles and hush puppies. They had house sauces for dipping. Flavors and textures were on point. Employees were friendly and helpful. It was a great experience.

    My burger had no flavor, it reminded me of a microwaveable cheeseburger you could get at the grocery store in the frozen section.

    I am still in disbelief that an order of hush puppies only consist of 3 small to medium sized hush puppies!

    Holy cow! I feel like an ate a whole cow with the portion sizes here!…read more Service was quick and so friendly. The mozzarella sticks were phenomenal. Fell apart; they were so fresh! Breakfast bowl was divine and way too much for one person honestly. Chicken fried ribeye was delightful and the mashed taters were perfectly flavorful and chunky. We sat outside b/c the weather was glorious. Great little shaded patio area. Loved the vibe, the menu options and service. Wish I could say we'll be back but we were just passing through.

    the whole place has such a chill, relaxed atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind. The food here is…read morepure comfort, especially that chicken-fried ribeye and the loaded tots, which were insanely flavorful and hit the spot after a long morning. The brunch dishes look amazing too. My only small complaint was that initial service was a bit sluggish when we first sat down, taking almost fifteen minutes just to get water and take our drink order, and my side of fries came out pretty limp and inconsistent compared to how crispy the tots were. Once the meal got moving though, the chill vibe and tasty food made it a really solid lunch overall. the standout comfort food and the super laid-back environment are the absolute best parts about this place. That chicken-fried ribeye is tender, perfectly seasoned, and total comfort on a plate, while the loaded tots are an incredible appetizer to share with the table. The overall space feels warm, casual, and unpretentious, making it a awesome spot to kick back with friends.
