I have given this local spot a few tries since it opened. My first experience there back when it opened was amazing–The food quality was regal and the employees were always accommodating. I dined at this dump on Sunday and a lot has changed for the worst. The staff was unfriendly and abrupt. It took forever for me and my wife’s simple draft beer to get to the table. We ordered the conch cakes as an appetizer and they came out very under cooked. After asking my waitress for a manager multiple times I flagged down another waiter who took them back to the kitchen to be cooked more…Still no manager. For entrees I had my old favorite dish the Salmon platter. It was dry unseasoned and the sides were microwave quality. The two small pieces of shrimp in my wife’s salad were a great display of the obvious lack of concern being put into this establishment. After we were nearly finished with the main course our appetizer returned from the kitchen just in time for us to pay our bill and leave.

Poor service, waited quite awhile before a waitress came to take our order. Had to remind the waitress for our drinks. Ordered the all you can eat fish fry and barely finished my one piece of slightly greasy fish. Husband had fried fish, shrimp & scallops, heavily breaded, had to ask for his side salad which had seen better days. Won’t be returning, food & service explains why the inside was empty.

We went for the first time tonight and the service was horrible. The hostess got our order for us and then we had a waiter who had too Many tables to handle. I will say the fried gator was excellent and the beer was cold but the our dinner was flavorless fried macadamia nuts grouper that was sticky. On top of that the manager gave no care when I asked for a refill on “ICED” tea he just put more tea in the glass with no ice. We didn’t even eat half of our food and we wanted out so bad we weren’t even going to argue about the check. $60 down the drain.

Casual comfortable environment. I have only sat outdoors at the bar area. Good place to go for (1/2 price appetizers)at happy hour. Cold beer, good service and good food. I love the fish fingers and have had good gator bites.

Used to be good. Was in there yesterday and it was like we were inconveniencing the bartender by ordering drinks. Tried to get Blue Moon and they’re out of oranges. Tried to get the fish dip and they’re out of that too. Pretty much your staple item and your out if it. Pretty much worst bar service I’ve had. So then I go inside to use bathroom and they have a Christmas tree still up. It’s fricken MAY. Grumpy Grouper is right. This place sucks. Won’t be returning. Can’t believe this place is still in business.

This is not the grumpy grouper that was across the road.. Shame 🙁 The service was excellent, they all wanted to help. Service would get a 5 star. Ordered wings, oh my gosh: ordered garlic and buffalo 36 in all. 1st) Overcooked! 2) they were honey garlic, more honey which dripped off the chicken, hardly no garlic. 3) Buffalo, not hot at all, maybe mild. The chicken had no meat on it. I am so disappointed. Menu well, you would have to go yourself to see.

I tried it today. First thing I noticed was the sticky tables. My bad for not leaving then. Next came the hair is the salad. Followed by the stale Nacho’s. They don’t have half the stuff on the menu, and the waiter never asked how I wanted my steak basically a tiny piece of meat surrounded by fat. To top things off they tried to over charge us.

Looks like a typical beachside lounge bar and restaurant, but the service is horrible. We went there for lunch and waited an hour for our sandwiches to come out. We watched as other tables, with more people, that arrived after us were served before us. We ended up filling up on sodas and never got to see a shred of food. Our complaints to our server went unheard and no one seemed to care. I would recommend that you go somewhere else.

I read the reviews they are horrible, I have never had a bad experience at this bar. The service is great, even when busy. Also on a special note, Jack’s Grumpy Grouper has an amazing bartender by the name of Kara, who takes care of each customer’s individual needs no matter how full the bar is, this kind of work ethic is hard to find in any profession much less a bar.

I was skeptical about going there because the building has been host to at least three other bars in a short period of time. Maybe even more than 3 others. I went on a Friday night and sat outside. It was a bit loud due to a live band. I was going to eat inside but after looking in through the glass door, I decided not to. It looked like a scene out of Twilight Zone, or Addams Family. No one was inside except some undesirables loitering around. The place gave me the feeling of a locals only bar. I felt like everyone was looking at the new guy but that quickly faded. The bar tender was very nice and quick to serve me. I got a nacho dish loaded with pulled pork. I was told by the server that it was a good choice and that the pork is very good. I believed her like I do all bar tenders who are trying to be nice. However, after getting the meal, I had the same opinion that it was a good decision and really good tasting pork. I don’t think an army could finish it. I barely made a dent in it. While I was sitting at the bar eating, the bar tender put shot glass filled with some unknown shot in front of me and a guy sitting next to me. I thought someone bought us a shot or something but no one said anything. I then thought maybe it was meant for a waitress to pick up. After it was infront of me for a few minutes I realized that everyone at the bar had one infront of them (at least 20-30 people). No one ever said “on the house” or whatnot so it was a little odd. However, pretty cool. I dont know if this is something that goes on all night or all the time or what.
