The servers have always been super sweet and check on us throughout the visit provided additional condiments and refills as needed. They do have some really good selections of fish at a fair price. The bacon wrapped shrimp keeps me coming back. They do have a bar but I haven't had anything from it yet maybe in future I will try and see how the cocktails are. I also enjoy that they have various seasonal offerings and daily specials. The dinner area is open with a fishing theme. It's very casual so there is no need to dress up but the food is still excellent.

Service was great! Lots of people on a Friday for lunch! Would come back and try their po boys!

Mid. We came on a Saturday night. The first thing that I…read morenoticed is the height of the tables is too low and there was way to much space between the table and bench on both sides. I had to lean way over to eat what was on my plate on the table, and I'm not tall (5'3"). Anyway, we ordered and it took over 45 minutes for our meal. Several other tables had the same wait. The servers were nice, not overly hospitable, but just fine. I'm thinking maybe there's only 1 cook for the whole restaurant... My suggestion would be to have crackers or bread or something to occupy guests during the long wait after ordering.

Seafood gumbo - color was off, no traces of seafood. Tasted like a sour soup, very different. I don't think I will order this again. Desserts: Bread pudding - yummy yummy in my tummy OMG!

I wish they had some regional IPAs on tap but that was the only negative. I ordered two helpings of snow crab clusters, which were on special, some potatoes, sausage, corn on the cob, and had a do-it-yourself seafood boil. I put my gloves on and went to work. My wife ordered the popcorn shrimp and sides and loved them. We both had leftovers and heated up they tasted great which doesn't always happen with this kind of food. Going back for the Dungeness crab.

However it's really really clean and well kept inside and is decorated well. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Never saw them standing around. They were always finding something to do and it looked like it was just one guy front of house and one in the back during lunch. Good on them! Food was fresh and hot. Definitely made to order. The crust of cheese was super good and the cheese sauce also very solid. Garlic bread was also pretty good. I got a very simple Mac and cheese but I would make a guess that more complex bowls would be super good from here. They have options to add sauces and many other items in or on top of it.

We started off with an appetizer of Cheese Curds with marinara - hot, crispy and delicious. As if on queue, our Cheesy Mac concoctions arrived, hot and bubbly. There are 4 steps in building your large bowl (I could only finish half of mine!): the base cheese, then meats, then any/all of the 11 add-ins (you can pick all 11!); and lastly up to 5 different sauces augmenting your own personal cheese nirvana. Do it. Now. The locals make you feel right at home with down-home 'bama accents, and engaging service. We are now back on the road, stomach's full, our next meal traveling with us and great memories to share.
