We have been here twice now. The house margaritas here are $10 and not worth it for the small cup they come in at all. We had the cracker jack shrimp and fried mushrooms appetizer. The were delicious. And then the tropical trader burger, shrimp and scallops meal, shrimp po boy and blackened shrimp alfredo. The Alfredo was not worth the price tag of $34 for the portion size. Other than those 2 high priced items, the food tasted great and they have outdoor seating for pets.

Enjoyed our meal outside near the bar. The service was top knotch! My fried shrimp tacos were amazing as was the cheese grits. My wife very much enjoyed the fish and chips. Highly recommended!

The third try. We both knew better but i do not leave reviews until the saying that the third time is a charm has been satisfied. Be aware that the prices online are not correct so when you visit, expect to pay one or more dollars per item. I understand inflation, but restaurants need to update their online photos. We had learned on a previous trip, that the grouper was not grouper but a nasty substitute, very fishy smell and taste. So we stayed away from the fish options. My husband had the shrimp tacos. Tiny shrimp, fried, drowned in teriyaki sauce. Ordered onion rings as a side, cost an upcharge of $3 for 4 rings. What a joke. Tacos do not get teriyaki sauce. Tacos get a cabbage slaw for crunch and color. There was at least an 1/8 of an inch of sauce on the plate. And the o

We have tried this place now for the third time. We will not return. Over priced. The food is not the best, not even good. And the waitstaff is unattentive and has to be tracked down. Sad. When all a man wants to do is take his wife out to eat, and the food and service is beyond terrible. My tacos were drowned in sauce and my wife's burger drrrryyyyy (to use the words of Chef Anne Burrell) and not as described. The bar has to do a lot of business by looking at the parking lot. Too bad we dont drink.

Had a really good impromptu meal here. Greek flounder, head-on shrimp, steamed shrimp, fried shrimp...all good. Good service, fast drinks.
