Jim EarpWe were on our way to Crystal River from the National Cemetery, and passed here at lunchtime. I turned around, just had to go in. Very cute place, friendly people. We had a dozen raw oysters each, and two Bud Light cans. The oysters were super fresh, and plump, could not have been out of the water long. The house cup of hot sauce on the side was very tasty. You order at the bar, they bring your food to the table. Really fun and good. 57$ before a tip at the bar.

mattWow!!!! What a hidden delight. Just happened to be going to the dump and saw this place on the way back. First of all got there at 1045 so 15 mins early, with our dog. They had no issue coming out immediately and greeting us happily and bringing our dog water. I expected to just sit outside and wait until 11, like a normal chain restaurant. But no so extremely nice form the beginning. I believe the woman stated she was the manager, and there was another blonde woman shucking fresh oysters. The atmosphere is amazing, perfect for a great afternoon, late night or Sunday football season. Great prices for the amount of food we got and the food was perfect. All around perfect experience.

Andrew T PetersenVery disappointed with the oysters. They were dry, almost like they were patted dry. There was no liquor at all, none, zip, nada. Going to let you know now, Huck’s, Sea Food Sellers, Kelly’s all much, much better for oysters. With that out of the way - beer selection was good enough, liquor drinks were well made, wait staff was great. Other foods we had were burgers and tots, good enough. Wings were cooked well, dry rub was good, but too salty over all. For the 5 of us that stopped for lunch consensus was, OK. Maybe worth a stop if we happened to be driving by and we were hungry/thirsty. Agree that it is not a destination though. So, I guess the best way to put it, yeah chances are we would go back, just not go out of the way to do so.

Lisa BerryWe have been here a few times and every time the food has always been good. Grouper Nuggets are my favorite. The staff is always super friendly. It is a cool little local joint. We love the down home atmosphere.
