Absolutely THE best Shrimp Tacos I've ever had! Upon the recommendation of our waiterres Nancy, I went with the Shrimp Tacos and Fries and Terri ordered up a favorite of hers, a Patty Melt. I figured I'd just get a little something to tide me over until supper time and these would probably just be the usual small Shrimp Tacos one can get anywhere.... Wow! Was I wrong...this is one of the best meals I've ever had! The shrimps were huge and tasted like no other Shrimp I'd ever had before! And as you can see by the picture, they were huge and the tacos were stuffed full with them. They were so good I tried to get Terri to take a bite of one but she missed out. The mango sauce added to the flavor but these Shrimp could have run solo and they'd have been a homerun on their own. Not to ig

Fun place to visit. Great bucket list location. Food was 80% good, but didn’t knock my socks off. We got several apps to share. Conch wars chewier than other places that serves conch. Our server was great. He came quickly and often. He knew a lot about the food. The wait was long. We were told it was going to be about 45 min, but turned into 70-75 min instead min. Recommend going early. She-crab soup was by far the best! Amazing flavors.

We dined here on 12/20/25. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is nice with indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a bar inside. I had The Hippie burger and fries. My brother in law had the Hippie Chicken Sandwich. My friend had the chicken salad. All were really good tasting.

Love this place. Large portions. Friendly staff. Scallops were melt in your mouth delicious. One of the best black beans and rice I’ve had. Always a good meal and great time!

Great upbeat friendly atmosphere. The food was very good and a beautiful poured Guinness to top it off. Our server Heather took excellent care of us. We also had a wonderful conversation with Amanda. We will be back especially because we are about 10 minutes away!
