Not fine dining. I sat at a table covered in a fine layer of dust from a dirty bar towel, the little fibers caught my eye in the setting sunlight. That's what made me look around. The floors had not been swept in a while, and food debris was everywhere. I purchased a steak, steamed broccoli, and a simple garden salad. The salad was dry but fresh, the steak was cooked to order and tasted delicious, but the broccoli tasted of fish. This is a seafood joint, so who knows if they use the same steamer for both vegetables and the fish..The staff was amazing, even pouring my water to my glass, and accomidated my request to try an oyster or two. They (staff named Daniel) and the great steak are the saving grace for my trip to this restaurant. If you do not mind eating at a bar, you will like this joint.

The lunch specials are absolutely fabulous. You get so much food that you will have seconds to take home. The food has really good flavoring. We had the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes and saladGrilled chicken breast mashed potatoes and green beans ???

We went after lunch rush so we were the only ones in there. Since it was our first time i wanted it to be slower so we could get the attention I need to ask what is good to them. Bar tender is cleaning and says we can sit anywhere and the lady working gave us the attitude of omg not another one. We had stuffed jalapeños and fried mushrooms appetizers. They were good. Jalapeños come in an order of 2 big ones breaded well and very filling. The mushrooms are cooked to perfection just not very much seasoning. We ordered our main course and sadly I can't remember what it was, that's how unimpressed I was with it. Love the look of the place

Pleasantly surprised by this spot. 1st time diners and we just ordered as much as we could stomach, which was too much. Raw Oysters as expected, but drier that most oyster spots. Chargrilled ones were cheesy and grille well, as fore mentioned, drier than other spots I’ve tried but maybe it’s the season… Mac and cheese was made with gouda cheese so it was flavorful. The clam chowder was off the charts, and better than most. Clams were soft and melted in your mouth chewy. The fish in the fish tacos were broiled perfectly, but would have liked the slaw on top to be dressed with some kind of dressing in the slaw instead of just being a plain cabbage. I mean there was dressing on the side but again, comparatively to other fish tacos, the salad on top usually is more flavorful than just the raw veggie. Ceviche was great, perfectly seasoned and citrusy. Overall a great experience. Unknowingly, To boot they have specials that made it better cost wise, but we just wanted to try as much as we can… defiantly going back to try other things.

Usually come for the grilled fish and shrimp but the steak doesn't disappoint. Gouda Mac and cheese side is very tasty!

Definitely above average — I’ve been at least 6 times and the food is consistently good (not mind-blowing, but good). The fried catfish is quite good, I’ve never had it when it didn’t taste super fresh, never had a “fishy” piece. The fried shrimp was good but a little salty. The chopped steak was just ok, as were the fried pork chops. The to-go service has been a bit hit or miss, but four stars means it’s definitely worth a try — especially if you’re looking for decent catfish in the area.

There food is excellent especially the chicken fried steak. If you want a good chicken fried steak dinner than you need to bring your face to this place.

Nice and cleanI just didn't care for the seasoning on my shrimp and they could have more draf beer selection

Had chicken fried steak and shrimp and OMG!! They were so tasty!! The batter used was just awesome.

Every time it hits the spot. Love this place. People are nice and they get all my little Quirky add-ons
