Where to start? At the beginning, I guess! Larry was our waiter, as well as our bar tender. The Patron Margaritas were very tasty! Then the cornbread was brought out...WOW! Could have easily made a meal out of that stuff! Next came the “Krab au Gratin”. Meal #2 for sure! Shari had the Gumbo. Says it was good! I had the Stuffed Shrimp �! It was good also! I will definitely go back to this place next time I’m in Freeport, TX!
