The food here is great, and our waiter Dorian was awesome!! I loved the atmosphere and decor. Very chill, but fun place to eat. I ordered the half pound headless shrimp special and it was delicious! I loved the special sauce that was all of their flavors mixed together, and The $2 margaritas are really good! Very strong haha.

This place was really great! being from out of town the hunny and mother and law spent almost an hour talking about the different sea food options that Pensacola had to offer and we landed on this one. So glad we did. no complaints whatsoever! 100% with the food and service!!

I ordered the Seafood Platter with the Original Cajun sauce (fire hot flavor) and it exceeded my expectation, the food was so well seasoned and it was so delicious. I will definitely come back here. My only complaint is that they did not get the guts out of the shrimp. But overall the food and service was amazing. Waiter was fast and on point. Always checked on us and everything ready to go before we even thought about it. 10/10 would eat again

Dorian was our server and was very friendly. The time until we were attended was a bit long but other than that, the timing was like a well oiled machine. The serving size was plenty for what was stated on the menu. We had the crab fries which were delicious with the sauce (the fries were not salted but cooked nicely). The hush puppies were small (bite size) and sweet worth the few bucks. Prices do change according to current pricing, so you may see some areas on the menu with price changes. Over all it was above average minus the atmosphere so I give it 4/5 stars. A couple of drinks and sweet tea and everything above was $58.

Great food, great service, nice building, clean, and well priced!! 10/10!

Took the wait staff forever to come to our table. I had to ask several times for our drinks. Waitress never came back to the table to even check on us...until I asked for the check. Food was good but without the service it's not a come back kind of place for me. Oh and your establishment could use a little cleaning. When you have time to walk around with nothing to do (manager), have your people check on the guests or clean up! I won't be returning.

A nice place to dine for seafood.Very good. The wait staff is very helpful and honest. Tonight was our second visit and it was just as good as our first visit

My cousin ordered the fish sandwich and the fish was so small it covered only half of the bun. She complained to the manager and he said that was the correct portion. I ordered a slice of key lime pie to go. When I opened it it was about the size of two bites. It looked they had divided a slice in half. I spoke to the manager and he said that was a normal slice. He made a couple of sarcastic remarks but did not even attempt to apologize. That was my first and last time eating at this establishment.

Food was delicious ! Service was excellent! Will definitely go back

Seafood is priced per pound and you can choose combos.I do not recommend the fried calamari. They really need to change their fry oil and reduce how long they fry it. It was chewy and tasted like burned fry greaseSeafood was good. The gumbo was also very good and filling (not too spicy at all)Hannah was a great server--friendly, helpful, prompt
