★★★★☆ 4.0 Chenoa Flores · Feb 2026

The tilapia was good. I enjoyed with and without hot sauce & tartar sauce. The batter had a nice flavor. I didn't know the dinner came with hushpuppies so I ordered a side. The hushpuppies had fried okra mixed in it and some didn't taste fresh. I enjoyed the coleslaw but the potato salad was fair. I was surprised about the portion size for the sides. But, It was a good first experience.

DELICIOUS and fresh food. Get the smothered pork chops, it's the best Ive ever had. My bf got the fried tilapia, also delicious.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Tania Kelly · Feb 2026

The food is great. The smothered chicken is incredible. This is obviously a very popular place. I hope they can find a larger space. The parking situation is stressful, although I admire they try to have ppl out there to try to direct parking tho. I thought front of house staff was pleasant. The food took a while to come out because they're so popular. I hope they get to scale up their business. But I will definitely be back!

I ordered the catfish and shrimp combo with Mac and cheese and cole slaw. I also got a slice of the M and M cake. The catfish was cooked perfectly and the shrimp were delicious. The breading for the shrimp was seasoned. I wish I knew what breaker they used because it was perfect on the shrimp. I liked that the catfish breeder was different than the shrimp and it didn't take away from the flavor of the catfish. The breading was a good ratio not to much breading used. The baked Mac and cheese was so good and I got some edge pieces that were so yummy. I got so much food, I was not able to eat all for lunch. So I guess I have dinner for tonight. All the staff are friendly, welcoming, and so helpful. If you like seafood you need to stop at this spot. No tables only counter.

Food is great! Had the fried chicken wings, rice/gravy, and green beans. Rice was a little under cooked, but everything else was really good and hopefully they are able to get a bigger space. Everything is so small from parking lot to inside.
