Yikes! …prices are much higher than when I was here less than two years ago, and be aware that the prices shown on their online menu are NOT current. They also now charge extra for that small baked potato that used to be part of the combo meals. I still love their fried shrimp meal (11 shrimp w/ tiny salad) but it cost me $20 (with potato & taxes) for the takeout version so I’ll likely hesitate to stop by again anytime soon. Too bad… I’ve been visiting this place every time I’ve visited Brownsville for many years.
The people were friendly but the raw oysters were very very small way too small to be serving even at this day and time I've seen bigger oysters a lot bigger I don't know what they were thinking but overall it was OK
I like this place. It's been in Brownsville forever. I haven't been since i was a kid, and the carpet and furniture are still the same.That said, it's still a nice solid seafood place.Definitely NOT Marisco (Mexican style seafood). It has classics as shown in the menu.We all ordered different dishes to try a few things. We enjoyed all the food.This is small town seafood (and we now live in Dallas for reference), not a fancy place. Simple and small menu. The food tastes homemade which is great.Fish sandwich on toast was good. A real / normal portion and the fried fish was done well.Broiled Shrimp was also a good normal portion. Tasted similar to some shrimp scampi, just much less buttery.The stuffed shrimp was big and very filling. The crab stuffing had some green/bell pepper in it?? It was different and good.I didn't try the seafood soup, but the 2 people in our group who did finished it all up. Nothing left at all.We also ordered oysters. They were good and fresh. They even included a monster sized one that was the size of my plate. Yes, some shells look small, but the oyster covered the entire shell. I've been to other big city chains where the small oysters are small.Finally, the staff is just laid back and friendly. Great to be there with them.
All restaurants in brownsville close by 8 or 9 not like mcallen ? majority of places are open late. This place was about to close 10 min to 9 and the hostes was so welcoming had no hesitation ro serve us. The server was so helpful in ordering our food since 1st time there. This plate Is so recommended!! The fish was so fresh not mushy like other places and the shrimp was ?. If in brownsville you must visit very recommended!! Although maybe adding rice or other sides on menu would be excellent!
Great food extremely recommended
The place is dated and so is their food. No redeeming qualities whatsoever. The shrimp cocktail was a colossal joke. The friend shrimp, hello Costco. The salad? It’s just iceberg lettuce. Truly a sad experience.
Love this place. It's always consistent and delicious. We try to go every time we're in town. Oysters are always fresh. The staff is always friendly. The environment is always welcoming.
Great food and pleasant atmosphere. Staff is very friendly and helpful! Will definitely be back!
Had the special of the night. My grilled fish wasnt Cooked all the way but fried shrimp was ok.
My husband and I are new to Brownsville and found this place on Google. Now, it's one of our favorites. The service is always amazing and we love the food and let's not forget the ice cold beer in the frozen mugs.❤
