First, the service was wonderful and personable. Our food came out super timely and to perfection. The portion was generous and very well worth it. I got the fish blackened redfish with potatoes and greens beans. The fish was thick and cooked perfectly. My friend got the shrimp po-boy and a loaded baked potato. She was pretty good.

The Staff were very friendly and helpful. Got in quick. Was very clean. I had the Bbq Burger. It was very delicious. Loved the fries. The homemade pickles were to die for. Husband got the Shrimp Polenta. It was so good. The Fried Green Tomatoes were pretty good. Was more batter than tomato. His Jack & Coke was perfect. He said the Bloody Mary needed a little more flavor. We poured the juice off my cup of pickles into the Bloody Mary. Made it better. The Cheesecake was so good. The Chocolate Cake was even better. Glad we stopped to try it while traveling

Full disclosure: this review was a 4/5 until I saw that Captain America watches you go to the bathroom. That bumps it up.

We always get takeout from here for work. They’ve never messed up the orders and it’s always fast and friendly. Their salmon with roasted veggies and polenta is soo good. If you want something heavier, they have the best onion rings and fried shrimp in town,

I’ve eaten here a few times while in Monroe for business. Very friendly staff and everything very well prepared and presented. Came with a party of 5, all ordered different dishes, and everyone was happy with their meals. Great food and reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

I love the concept… Execution is another story though… The room was unclean. There were lots of hairs in the bathtub. There were dirty dishes in the cabinet. Your popcorn kernels underneath the TV cabinet that you can see as soon as you sat down on the couch.

Their staff are greatest group of people!! We always sit with J.J., but Grant, Kelsey & Teddy, also Kyle (on Tuesdays) are just as good!! My favorite place to eat.

Blackened redfish and cream brûlée!! Wow. Server recommendations were spot on. Thank you, Teddy. My mom loved her fried fish and potatoes. We meandered aimlessly in today by chance. Next time it will be intentional!

Great service and good food. The fried mushrooms were wonderful along with the cheese sandwich. Really the cheese sandwich was amazing. The cheese steak needs more seasoning.
