Great chicken livers. There lunch specials are the best. Also, they have great customer service. Picture of my blooming onion. A... must try if you like blooming onions. Make sure you request extra sauce for the onion. Read more

A restaurant that I frequented often. Lady working alone in the front. Possibly the owner with an accent. Very rude. We were... ordering a lot and was treated like we couldn't afford it. She treated us like it was an inconvenience to take our order. Upsetthat we were ordering extra sides to go with the combination plate. We said We would pay extra. Then she slammed the menu downwhen we asked for the price of crab legs. I honestly felt that this was racial and she brought a cloud over this place. I willspread the word. Read more

We had supper last night here and the food was great. Each member of our party had a different item from the menu and everything... was cooked to perfection. We also had the sweetest server, Vivian, who took great care of our family. This is just an example ofwhy we have been visiting here for many years on a very special occasion Read more

Me 2ic and kids decided we wanted seafood so we decided to give this place a shot. When we got there. We were greeted and seated... immediately. The service was fast. They got our drink order. And drinks to us fast. And took our order and the food was outpretty fast. Once and hot and fresh. But the food was good. No cap!!!!. The shrimp was amazing. The house cinnamon dip for thehush puppies was great.. the teas was nice and sweet just how I like it. Because everyone sweet tea. Not sweet. The only badthing I have to say is the fish I had the perch. Never had it before. It wasnt seasoned. If it had some season it would have allbeen perfect. But I dont know if it was supposed to be seasoned or not. And the portions was good also. I hate alot.. amd stillhad alot of to take home in to go box. I definently reccomend this spot. They will see us again Read more

This restaurant came up when we were searching for seafood in the area. We had to wait a few minutes as they are short staffed... but it was well worth it. Ordered the fried scallop and oyster platter with hush puppies and a baked sweet potato. The hushpuppies were shaped like onion rings (first for me) but delicious and not greasy at all. The portions are generous as I orderedthe lite portion and still had leftovers. I highly recommend the she crab soup. Will definitely come back the next time we'rein the area. Read more

They are back and running. It was worth the wait! One of my favorite local seafood places to eat. It gets busy, but our waitress... Audrey was attentive and friendly. The food was fresh and cooked just right. Read more
