Visited early evening on March 24, the place was crowded and very loud, plus the band was very loud don't go there with a headache. The waitstaff was pleasant and prompt. The food was good, however there is a oscillating fan mounted to the blue painted wall that was on, when I looked up at it only to find it disgustingly dirty like it hasn't been cleaned in years, so we turned it off. I then started looking around and found numerous dirty walls, a dirty speaker hanging over another table where people were eating. Outside of building no better. That building needs a hellova cleaning and new paint. Attached are a few pics.
What a fun place! Our waitress was a blast, and she was really good. We went on a Friday night and they had all you can eat fried grouper and french fries. OMG, the first basket they served us had three giant pieces of fish and a mound of fries. They want to be sure you get ALL YOU CAN EAT! The atmosphere in the dining room is really fun with lots of old pics of Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Jerry Lewis. Supposed there's a story there about them and the owners but I didn't catch it. In addition to great indoor dining, they have great outdoor seating area where the bar is with a live band that was actually really good. The food was outstanding and reasonable considering all you got. I highly recommend it especially if you just need to break away from the house for a fun evening on the town!
Nice neighbor restaurant. Live music. My wife had the grouper basket, came with 3 large pieces, she really enjoyed it. I had the seafood Diablo, spicy but not to hot. Lots of seafood in it. The seafood bisque was quite tasty also. They do smoke in the back where the live band is though. Good bar with craft beers as well.
Very friendly server. Fast service. Good food portions. Enjoyed the seafood bisque.
I came here for my birthday dinner. Overall the food was good but my Prime Rib was overcooked. The side dishes were very good and our waiter was friendly. It was on the busy side and it took a while to place our order. It looked like there were only 2 wait staff members. Unfortunately the band playing was so loud we were unable to talk to one another and it kind of ruined the whole experience for me. I wouldn't reccomend going there for a special occasion and eating outside when they have entertainment. If you want to be able to hear people I would say eat inside. Prices were decent. Will probably try again but sit inside.
