  • Stopped in here for a late lunch/early dinner. 10 stars if I could with friendliness and quality of the food. It’s a casual Florida kind of place with loads of old mementos bedecking the walls’ every inch. Rich history. I ordered the jambalaya and it was the best I’ve ever eaten. Key West shrimp, andouille, jerk chicken, yellow rice, and allll the flavor! Included a fresh huge side salad. Beloved ordered wings and veg. Also delicious. Highly recommend! About $55 for two of us. But enough left over for at least another meal. The staff were extra attentive with our pup and that’s always appreciated when it’s so genuine.

  • Had a great meal tonight. 1st time here, and it was worth coming. The service was the best part of the experience. Cappy i think her name was, gave us so much info and suggestions that it made the meal fun. We would come back and try other dishes. The manager was great also.

  • This is a fun mid-week stop for an appetizer, glass of iced tea or wine and perhaps even lunch. Casual attire, friendly servers and good appetizers... especially the CONCH FRITTERS, YUMM!!! Just a very pleasant mid-day stop on the front patio... very scarcely populated and relaxing.

  • We enjoyed a nice meal and a cold beverage with friends. All of our dishes were very good. The service was excellent as well. Noteworthy was the Sangarita, I’m not a wine person, but my wife’s was delicious.
