Great place to get great seafood. I have been going to this place since 2014. Just love the food here. Catfish nuggets are awesome can't taste mud in them. Shrimp are huge and tender, crunchy. Also fries are great. Everything about this place is amazing. Best seafood without going to the gulf coast. Give them a try you won't be disappointed. You can order food here that they cook for you or buy and take home and cook yourself. And you get your money's worth. Absolutely great food. Updated Aug. 2025

We went late in the day (6pm). No fresh seafood in the case to buy but we were there to purchase dinner. Ordered the shrimp platter & seafood platter. The gentleman behind the counter was very pleasant and polite. Thankfully we had cash, as their credit card machine was broken. We waited a reasonable length of time while our food was prepared. The containers were so full the lids wouldn't close! Got home and couldn't believe the amount of food we got for not a lot of money! Great tasting shrimp, fish, oysters, etc. Not greasy, just the right amount of breading, and the shrimp, piece of fish and oysters were huge! Will definitely return!

Do not judge this book by its cover. Definitely not a posh environment but the food, so far, is great. I am new to the area so I figured I would give this place a try. I ordered the frog legs. I am NOT, repeat, NOT disappointed. They are lovely and cooked just right. And HUGE. Look at these things. Delicious!!!! I WILL be back for sure.
