    We had dinner there tonight and it was wonderful! Pamela was a great server! She kept our tea filled and checked on us periodically to see if we needed anything, without being bothersome! I highly recommend their fried shrimp! It was HUGE shrimp in a great tasting batter, but not too much batter! I had salad & meat sauce spaghetti on the side, it was also served with garlic bread with an herb olive oil for dipping. We eat here every year when we come and thoroughly enjoy our meals every time! If you are in the area, you have to try it.

    The waitress Pamela was frat, we didn’t have to ask for anything. She checked on us several times and kept our tea glasses filled. When we were five the menu at the door we didn’t look at it and were escorted to the table. When we looked at the menu u it was drinks and appetizers. She came over to the table before we even said anything and brought us the big menus. If it had not been for her we were easy to leave because the menus didn’t look like the online ones but we were given the menus from the bar. We will definitely make this one of our places to eat when here.

    The crab dip had no saeasoning, the fried food was soggy, the gravy on the mashed potatoes was hotrible,(and that's being generous), the amount of food on the seafood platter, ($39), was as follows 1 fish filet, 5 shrimp, 5 oysters, 4 sea scallops, and 1 crab ball. Everything on this platter was well underseasoned. And this is a testament to how bad the food was, the best thing from both meals were the fries and cinnamon apples. Although the service was excellent, I would not recommend this place, or do I expect to ever go there again.

    Everyone is super friendly here! We were greeted warmly by the hostess, and our server, Justin, was excellent! He was also extremely friendly and took our order in a timely manner. We had Chicken Parmigiana and Spaghetti and Meatballs which were both delicious❣️. The portions were huge! Our dinners came with a salad and bread for dipping. The food and service were great, and we’ll definitely be back!

    If we could give 10 stars, we would!!!! Especially for service!!! Hayley is a JEWEL!!! She treated us so wonderfully and went out of her way to make sure we had everything we wanted. We also witnessed her have to deal with 2 sets of nasty, disrespectful people complaining like crazy.... NONE of it was warranted! Our food was perfect. She smiled and was respectful all throughout their tirades and did everything she could to please them. She's a keeper for sure! We go every Oct. for our anniversary and this was our 40th. She and Andrea, who's another jewel, made it perfect!! God bless y'all!!!!
