Even though we're from Virginia, whenever we're in Patterson, it's a must-visit--some things never change, and this place is one of them. I had the Surf & Turf with a 10 oz ribeye and fried shrimp, along with green beans. The steak was tender and flavorful, and the shrimp were golden, crispy, and fresh. We also had the Stuffed Flounder, served with cheese grits, a baked sweet potato, and coleslaw--a true Southern plate, made from scratch and full of comfort. The meal started with a warm dinner roll and a fresh side salad with thousand island dressing, and we finished it off with two incredible desserts: Chocolate Meringue Pie and Strawberry Shortcake. Both were rich, homemade, and absolutely worth saving room for. They're only open Fridays and Saturdays right now, so make sure to plan ahead. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the atmosphere feels like home. Otter Creek isn't just a restaurant--it's a Patterson tradition that continues to live up to its name

Instead of taking phone numbers or providing pagers, they simply write down your name and loudly call it over a speaker. Despite having four adults in our party and actively listening both inside and outside for our name, staff claimed they called us multiple times and skipped over us, resulting in a wait that was well beyond the estimated time. When we were finally seated, our table was dirty and wasn't even set up with the correct number of chairs, despite there being only four adults in our group. Unfortunately, the food did not make up for the poor experience. It was subpar at best. Overall, aside from the riverfront view, this restaurant failed to deliver on service, atmosphere, cleanliness, and food quality.

I…read morewant to begin by expressing my sincere appreciation for your team; our server, in particular, delivered truly outstanding service. Their attentiveness, warmth, and professionalism were exemplary, contributing significantly to a positive atmosphere and certainly meriting a five-star commendation. However, I must also highlight a considerable disappointment concerning the food. The oyster stew served was, without exaggeration, the most unsatisfactory I have ever encountered. Its consistency was exceedingly thin and watery, akin to diluted milk, and it was entirely devoid of any distinct flavor profile. Furthermore, the oysters themselves regrettably still retained an unappealing sliminess from their shells, indicating they had not been thoroughly cleaned. This dish fell far below expectations. Conversely, the salad bar offered a mostly positive experience. The array of options was generally appealing, and the majority of the ingredients appeared vibrant and fresh. My only reservation was the condition of the lettuce, a significant portion of which exhibited noticeable brown discoloration, suggesting it was no longer at its freshest. Despite this minor issue, the other components available on the salad bar were excellent.

Chef Jerome is a piece of SE Georgia history and makes some fantastic food. From the moment we pulled up to the restaurant, Chef Jerome came out and greeted us with hugs and assurances that he was going to take good care of us. The building is eclectic, quirky, rustic, and several more adjectives - but never off-putting. It is comfortable.... When you walk in, you really get a feel for the history of this place - particularly from the tens of thousands of photos that decorate the walls (virtually all of them) throughout the restaurant. There are pictures of locals, travelers and even several celebrities that have feasted at the Diner. Ben Afflect's picture is featured all over the restaurant as he frequents this place whenever he is in town (he even has his own autographed chair hanging on the wall). We were seated in the VIP room and presented with a menu with several good southern dishes from deviled crab, oysters, scallops and of course shrimp to ribs, porkchops, steaks and burgers. They are known for their Wheelchair Platter - which serves 2, 3, or 4 people. This is a collection of things that the Chef has selected for you including fried shrimp, fish, hushpuppies, pork chops, Mac 'n cheese, and other treats. Comes with slaw and potato salad (both fantastic), We ordered the platter for 2 - and it did not disappoint. We also got the sweetpotato logs with a cinnamon dipping sauce (wow!). First - those were some of the best hushpuppies I've ever eaten. Crispy on the outside but fluffy with bits of corn on the inside. yum. Everything else was cooked to perfection. Once we had eaten, Chef Jerome came out and took some pictures (for the wall of course) and had us promising (truthfully) to return soon. This place is a little out of the way. It's down a dirt road and looks a little rustic - but you will be very pleasantly surprised once you go in and let Chef Jerome take care of you. A Definite recommendation! Don't miss this treasure!
