Stopped by for lunch and and was not disappointed, somewhat. We had the 1/2 lb shrimp and a po-boy. The shrimp were good as were the potatoes and corn. We had the shrimp medium heat with garlic butter and it was great. Would definitely come back for more but would recommend ordering 1 lb and splitting it instead of (2) 1/2 lb combos as it is a much better deal. I would have liked to have seen refillable drinks too instead of bottled, if nothing else at least sweet tea, bottled tea is not acceptable in the South, just saying.

I think next time I’ll drive a little further and get some seafood from Lighthouse. I’m...

I just told her I wanted some fried fish, some corn on the cob, and some red potatoes. I got the choice of regular or garlic butter which was nice because garlic butter is delicious. I also got the choice of seasoning on the corn and potatoes, and chose cajun; this was also nice. I was not worried a bit about the cost but was well pleased when it came out to $11 and some change. I should’ve taken a picture of the plate…I ate it too fast….the fish was perfectly crispy and soft, and the sides were also delicious. Thank...
