Don't waste your money. Everything is low grade frozen seafood. We ordered coconut shrimp Very small over done just cheap frozen shrimp. I don't think the grouper is real grouper I've never seen a grouper filet so thin. The stuffed crab is all breading and no crab. The stuffed flounder was nasty and cold in the center. Portion size is very small for the money. Don't waste your time or money.

Amazing locally owned restaurant serving fresh seafood and sides! The whole family enjoyed it and was truly impressed by the fresh shrimp and crab. Delicious food that was fresh to order, and nice and hot - with very friendly service! Would love to come again.

My family and I have been coming to this establishment for about a year and a half. The atmosphere is great — warm, welcoming, and full of good energy. The service is usually pretty good, and the food overall is really enjoyable.
That said, one of my biggest pet peeves is the 30 Shrimp Special they run on the 1st and 15th of the month. Just know — you’ll almost never actually get 30 shrimp. I’ve ordered that special at least five different times, and this last visit my wife, daughter, and I each received around 20–23 shrimp, even though we each ordered the 30 Shrimp Special. That’s pretty frustrating!
It seems to be hit or miss depending on who’s working in the kitchen, but consistency matters. If you’re going to advertise 30 shrimp, customers should get what they pay for.

I ordered the three-piece meal grouper scallops And oysters the scallops on my plate and my wife's were overcooked so was the grouper we both had them blackened. The scallops are not real scallops they are shark plugs. If you know Seafood then you will know scallops are not all the same size and same thickness. As far as the grouper it was overcooked they did re-cook our meal and it was better but it was not great and I'm not even sure if it was real grouper. We also had gator bites which were good, the red beans and rice was about the only thing that tasted good out of the whole meal. The fried tomatoes were decent it needed more flavor. They had a special on shrimp 30-piece shrimp for 12.99 with two sides the shrimp were overcooked and it seems like those were frozen pre battered shrimp. If you are looking for a good seafood restaurant I do not recommend this place but if you have mediocre taste buds then you're going to enjoy it. My wife spent around $26 for her meal I spent around $68.00 from mine. Don't let the pictures fool you.
