    Had an amazing lunch. Lorrie our server was brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble for her. And she was well-supported by Jeremey. We are from Australia and last ate here 10 years ago. We very much looked forward to our return today and it didn't disappoint. Thank you to all.

    Brett provided excellent service and recommendations. My husband had the grilled red fish and I had the pork chop. Both were cooked perfectly and so delicious! We tried the bread pudding and dark chocolate cake with salted caramel sauce. Divine!

    We have been many times. The oyster, crayfish and soup appetizers were excellent. The bbq shrimp were excellent but the shrimp smaller, and the shrimp and grits fantastic. The FAILURE was the desserts. Way too sweet and there were virtually no pecans in the pecan pie. The lemon tart tasted like canned filling and the bread pudding should not be heated in a microwave half was hot half was cold. We will always be back for the bbq shrimp but skip desserts, sadly.

    We loved our server Brett, he told us places to go in the area and suggested the best meals on the menu (his opinion, of course - but his opinion was right). You must try the Shrimp and Grits, the BBQ Shrimp, and the Seafood Gumbo. All were favorites of ours, and our server, Brett. Thanks Mr. B!!
