In search of some good seafood, I stumbled across THIS HIDDEN GEM!! ???????? And I found me some GREAT seafood!! I ordered the... Shrimp & Scallop Kabob Combo for $18.99, added fried oysters for $5.99 & added hushpuppies for $1.99 Now coming from a long-lifeof eating plates of various seafood, I usually just won't eat the cole slaw.... But this one was actually fantastic. My shrimp &my scallops & my veggies were PERFECTLY cooked!! I ordered a bowl of Seafood Gumbo for $10.50 to-go because I couldn't fitanymore in my belly! Lol. My waitress was friendly & attentive & I enjoyed my visit very much. Cannot wait to eat here again inthe coming weeks! Read more
First time coming here today the food was not that good. I ordered the basket special. It was too salty. I should?ve ordered... something grilled or boiled. The server was really nice tho! I believe the basket was a bit overpriced $18 Read more
Food smelled great when I arrived. Kitchen was booming, the aroma was magnificent. But there's a reason I don't order fried food... often anymore and this calamari with a side of hush puppies reminded why. ???? over battered, overcooked, basically eatingcrunchy chips instead of juicy lightly fried fresh calamari. The hush puppies I'm use to from the east coast are sweet and softbut these were crunchy and peppery. ???? but I get it I'm in TX & that's what people want. No honey butter here either. justtarter and cocktail sauce. I couldn't finish even half of the $17 togo meal after a $2 tip. Great service though. Nice people.Should of played it safe with broiled fish or shrimp. Oh well maybe next time ... Read more
The seafood here was fresh and very well made. We sat outside under the palapa and it was a beautiful afternoon. We got the... crab fingers (crab claws) that were drop fried then tossed in a garlic butter sauce. They were delicious, I only wish they hadmore claws and more garlic! We then shared the fried flounder which was huge and delicately fried, not over cooked, in a lightcornmeal batter. We asked for lots of fresh lemons to squeeze on the fish and comes with cocktail and tater sauce. A crispyslice of garlic bread, two hush puppies, and coleslaw come as sides. Read more
Delicious food , had the fried shrimp, the oysters , alligator bites , boudain balls, and calamari. All were fantastic , fried... seafood is tough to get right and all of it was awesome. The staff was very kind and attentive. The atmosphere is great , mainrestaurant is shaped like a boat and we ate in the outdoor covered patio. Only downside was one or two oysters (out of 4 dozens)had some grit to them. Overall great experience , highly recommend if you enjoy seafood Read more
