Melanie MaddoxJuly 24, 2017The Riverboat special can't be beat! We loved the cornbread and slaw - be sure to get an "appetizer" of turnip greens!

Nancy TurbyfillDecember 23, 2015Everything I've had here has been excellent. It's not all that unique - southern standard catfish, shrimp, coleslaw, etc. - but they do it VERY well.UpvoteDownvote- Joey IngramMay 24, 2015The cole slaw and the pickled onions are awesome. Try the fried pickles and onion rings appetizer. The worlds largest seafood platter is a great bargain!UpvoteDownvote

Shelby Joy LothJune 21, 2012This is an awful place to eat. They dropped my husbands steak, we waited forever to get a new one. Plus the stuffed crab shell thing I had was awful.UpvoteDownvote
