He was friendly, outgoing, and helpful in a genuine way. Not one of those annoying, phony, over the top sugary types. Just a great guy serving great food. We both ordered the smashburger of the month, which, Dec 2025 was a double smash burger with arugula, pecan smoked bacon, goat cheese and fig jam. I ordered Cajun spiced onion rings with mine, and my husband got plain French fries with his. Jared recommended their remulade dip that comes with the gator bites to dip our onion rings and fries in, and it was spicy and scrumptious. The burgers were amazing, better than expected. Fries and onion rings were perfect. Crispy and not greasy. Same goes for the bacon on our burgers. No slimy, greasy bacon! It was cooked to a nice crispy texture but not at all burnt and still held that great flavor! The restaurant was decorated for Christmas with Buddy the elf and it looked great. Restrooms are next door shared with the bar and are clean and well kept. Excellent all around. Highly recommend!

The crab claw special was not what we expected but it ended up being decent. The salad was very good, it was plenty to share. The fish tacos were OK and the sandwich was very good. I wouldn't suggest getting chips and salsa as an appetizer if you're getting tacos because they come with tacos. drinks were Ok too. The best one I tried was the pina colada. Baby had a cheese burger and it was pretty good too. I would definitely go back- much better than flounders lol OH ELVIS! Our server's name was Elvis and he was very nice, chillax, attentive and informative.

We chilled at the bar, grabbed a couple appetizers and drinks while we waited for a table. We had the crab claws and grouper nuggets, both were super tasty but the grouper nuggets were amazing.

We just ordered drinks and enjoyed the music but the food coming out to others looked good. I ordered the Paradise Punch and the Lisa's Light and Lovely. Both had a decent amount of liquor and were not too sweet which is what I like. I didn't like that there were no prices on the drink menu but was pleasantly surprised when the bill came -- their prices are great. Waitress was busy with lots of tables but still provided good service. I could tell a lot of locals hang out here and I would, too, if I were local!
