Boater Reviews
Food was pretty good (could have been more seasoning in their breading but you cant please everyone). We came right when they opened and everything was hot and fresh. The server, Emma B, was very attentive and polite, great service. Happy with the prices and the amount of food. My dining partner said the sweet tea was not very good, or the deviled crab, but everything else was great, especially the hush puppies (he got the seafood platter). I got the catfish filet (nuggets) and i was initially a little nervous based on their appearance but they were crunchy and tasted great. Not sure why one review mentioned the place not having music. They were playing some country radio station when we went.
Got seafood platters - one fried and one broiled - so much food - great service, didn't wait long, cash discount and senior discount
The food was great. Prices are more than reasonable. Nicky, our server, was fantastic! Very personable, got our order 100% right and even made some recommendations since it was out first time there. Highly recommended!
First visit, on a Friday evening. Easy in. McNeely a 3 year veteran was our server. She was very attentive. Great service. Restaurant has all you can eat fish choices. I had cat fish nuggets with salt/pepper. My wife had seafood platter, not all you can eat, but more than she could eat. Food was hot and good. Restrooms were clean, as is the entire restaurant. Will be going back.
Food was freshly cooked and hot, but nothing extraordinary for a "fish camp". On par with most others.Price point isn't too bad overall, I prefer packing my own leftovers, but their policy is a little different and they do it for you and you pick them up after you check out. If I'm in the area, I'd eat there again but I don't see going out of my way for it.
