The owner Augustine and his entire staff are incredible. They're professional and efficient. Love the seafood, lightly breaded. Good ambiance and restrooms are clean. I love that they give you your drink to go too. All waitresses/waiters are nice. And the menu is easy to navigate with reasonable prices. I will come here for as long as he owns the restaurant! I love the calamari, it's full pieces not just rings. Everything is good on the menu. Neat how they have a drive thru also!

The food is awesome, and the portions are very generous. I ordered the salt and pepper catfish fillet plate, and it was phenomenal. The tartar sauce is made really well and pairs perfectly with the fish. Definitely a spot worth trying!

I got the fired oyster platter and was happy with it. My husband got the pick three platter and got oysters, frog legs, and flounder; but he wasn’t very impressed. Our waiter was good, as he had two large tables, but maybe they need more help. Due to his large tables we did end up waiting awhile for our food and then our check.

I was driving by and saw this restaurant and decided to give it a try. This was my first (And last) time ever eating here. The staff were very polite and I have no complaints about them. However, when it comes to the food, this is just absolutely disgusting! I had the Fried Seafood Platter. Then I was perplexed when the waitress asked me “Do you want that plain or salt and pepper?” I should have known immediately! They don’t season their food 🤮 Who wants tasteless fried seafood? I’ve eaten seafood all around the country. This is just pathetic! I didn’t want to make it obvious so I asked for a box to go. I packed up the food and threw it away when I left. If your from another part of the country, like I am, this is your warning! These people don’t know seafood. 🤷🏾‍♂️

This restaurant is an older establishment with booths and tables. The food is always hot and plentiful and they serve it quickly. The wait staff is friendly and they are quick to respond to your requests. Their menu is well-rounded with different ways of cooking your seafood to your particular tastes. Every time I eat here , I always have a lot of food to take home with me and enjoy the next day.
