“ I was hesitant when we arrived and impressed when I left. The seafood was exceptional for local caught, fresh food. The online description is right on. If you like good fried seafood, slaw, grits, and hush puppies in a pub setting, this is it. If you're looking for fancy, keep looking. The service was great and food was delicious! ”
“ This is a great spot with great food. Due to the fact people can smoke inside it's not a great place for kids. They do have a non smoking side but it's a very small area so you may have to wait to sit there if you bring your kids. Other than that it's the best. Service is great food is affordable and you can play whatever music you want to hear while you eat. ”
“ I come here all the time the food is hot and fresh. This is the captains platter and the AJs sauce has a kick to it my Gyrl Autumn is the best ”
“ Love this place .. u can eat drink and smoke ... they have a section in the back for non smokers ”
“ Food was great. Good fresh oysters too... ”
“ My favorite spot to get seafood in the 229 area. They're reasonable, good and they have great customer service. Their cheese grits are made with A Grandmother's Love !!! Their homemade tartar sauce is everything. The hushpuppies are good too!!! I go home every weekend and eat here. You don't need the butter with the crab legs, because they are seasoned to perfection. The only problem that you might have is that it's a small restaurant. ”
“ I can’t say enough good things about my sole experience here. The steak and shrimp were both cooked and seasoned perfectly. The staff was fast and friendly. Overall the value is exceptional given the price versus the quality and quantity. Well deserved 5 stars, I’d give more if I could. ”
“ Tried the smoked fish dip. Really delicious. Had a tiny spice but really good. Also had the combo of shrimp and deviled crab cakes. Also delicious. ”
