5 /5 Christopher Peterson: This restaurant is an absolute must-visit!
If you’re reading reviews and wondering whether this place is worth your time - stop wondering. It absolutely is.
The honey pecan fried shrimp is nothing short of extraordinary and was hands-down the star of our meal. Every single person at our table experienced serious entree envy watching it being enjoyed.
The loaded fried green tomatoes were spectacular - honestly substantial enough to be a satisfying meal all on their own.
The wharf cake offers a creative and delicious twist on the traditional crab cake, featuring three varieties of perfectly seasoned chopped fish. I ordered mine blackened and liked it, though I suspect it would be even more phenomenal fried.
The green beans were cooked to al dente perfection - beautifully buttery with just the right crunch. My six-year-old couldn’t get enough and eagerly asked for seconds!
The smash potatoes were a creative take on red potatoes that are fried to crispy perfection on the outside while remaining incredibly soft and fluffy inside. A touch of salt makes the flavors absolutely sing.
The sweet potato fries were good, and the gumbo was wonderfully hearty with fantastic seasoning throughout.
Our server was exceptional - attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely engaged. She expertly guided us through the menu with thoughtful suggestions that led us to an absolutely delicious feast.
The only disappointment of the evening? They’d run out of banana pudding - though as our server mentioned (and other customers confirmed), it’s likely because it’s just as irresistible as everything else on their outstanding menu.
Bonus: No wait when we arrived at 6:00 pm on a Sunday evening in December, and plenty of convenient parking.
This place is a gem!
