The food was out of this world. By far the best gator I've ever had! The hush puppies are the best ever. As in I mean there is no better hush puppy on this planet! Thank God they didn't seem to be badly damaged during the hurricane. My wife and I hope to be back soon. Update... We went back, and it was just as good as the first time.

I went here a lot as a kid and I still go back now and the food is just as good. Cute environment inside the restaurant and even better outside. The dock is so beautiful and you can almost always spot a baby gator. Love this place and will always give them my business! The fried pickles are amazing! The catfish filet and chicken tenders are really good too.

I am from MD and was visiting my sister. Her and brother-in-law took us here. I love catfish, and this was one of the best I ever had. Definitely will revisit next time I'm in town.
