    From out of town and stopped for a quick bite to eat and a couple of drinks. Tried baked oysters for the first time and they were delicious! Several draft beers to choose from as well as hard liquor. A few wines to choose from. We were here around 2, so service may have been quicker due to being after lunch rush. Had no issues with parking. Music isn't too loud, can have a conversation. Alexis was our server, and was very friendly. She was ok with us getting baked oysters instead of raw. 🤷‍♀️

    We came here on a Monday afternoon on a whim. We had been to another location last year while visiting, so decided to go somewhere closer to our house. Not only was the food plentiful AND delicious, the atmosphere gave a very chill vibe that didn’t make us feel underdressed or unwelcome. I shared the mariner’s platter and everything was fried to perfection no soggy piece of seafood in sight. And our server Sheri was AMAZING. Not only was she attentive and understanding, she was friendly and her smile was infectious. We literally raved how we wished we lived down here so we could visit again sooner. The 5 stars are well deserved.

    My sisters and I came to Dirty Dicks for lunch on a gloomy Monday, and Sheri made the whole visit such a bright spot in our day! From the moment we arrived, she was so kind and welcoming. She gave us great suggestions and made us feel right at home, almost like we were family coming together for a reunion. Her warmth made our lunch together feel extra special. I ordered the blackened chicken pasta and absolutely loved it! One of my sisters got the double cheeseburger, and the others shared a large platter. We had plenty of food and ended up taking home leftovers of everything, which was a lovely bonus. I also ordered the Gilligan’s Island cocktail and tried the piña colada, and both were delicious. The food and drinks were wonderful, but Sheri’s kindness is what really made this visit memorable. She helped us all have a great time and made a gloomy afternoon feel so much brighter. Thank you, Sheri, for making us feel like family and giving us such a lovely experience!

    We ordered the seafood platter with 2 drinks and oysters. They could not find anyone to shuck the oysters so we cancelled them. Seafood platter was under cooked and certainly not what we expected from a restaurant that claims they have fresh seafood. We will never go back! If you go here check out the comments before you go. Do not go for fresh seafood!! I have never done this but did not leave a tip cost of dinner was $98.00. Big Mistake! cancelled.them.

    Waiter was not interested in customer service at all. Only that They meaning (Dirty Dicks) did not care if your meal was cold, dry & not appetizing, ONLY that they would swap different food for you NO credits on ticket. We didn’t even care about credits. Just stating gumbo was not good. MY FIRST IN MANY YEARS ON THE ISLAND THAT I HAVE BEEN TREATED SO RUDELY AND DISMISSED AS A CUSTOMER. Minus -10 for Dirty Dicks
