Blackened Grill Mix was AMAZING as always! I had the Catfish Victoria (grilled) and my honey had the blacked red fish. Both were delicious! Too full for dessert but made sure we got our Mississippi Mud Pie to go! No one makes it better! AND there was live music! It was a great 48th Birthday! Thank You!

Had the Charbroiled oysters. They were some of the best I ever had & I had quite a few in my day. Will be going back. I was very impressed with the friendly staff & great service.

Went to have dinner in the bar area at 600pm only to find all seating tables were reserved. Going to have to find another watering hole.
