I can't wait to go back! Loved the food and atmosphere. I got the shrimp and grits, which was the best I've ever had. My husband liked his gumbo. The corn bread was excellent, but more cake like. We also got the gator bites appetizer and loved it. I got the apricot wheat ale, and really enjoyed it. The food must be made to order, because it took a while, but that doesn't bother me. We really enjoyed our visit and look forward to going back.

We were having a few beers at Uptown Brewery, and the bartender suggested that we order from here and it would be delivered. I ordered the crab dip (with tortillas) and the soup of the day (chicken and sausage gumbo). The service was quick (15-20 minutes) and the food was excellent. I have never had gumbo before, took one look and was a little hesitant (I expected it to look like soup). It was SO GOOD! And I was given 1.5 containers (I guess their typical serving would fit in just one...which really impressed me). I have since been googling gumbo recipes to make my own. The crab dip was delicious, but I think I would have preferred something a little studier than tortillas for it, but it was still very, very good.

Piggy packed nachos were delicious. Burgers are great. This was our first visit, definitely will be back to try the gumbo. Great music and generous drinks from the bar. Service excellent.

Food was decent. Definitely a tavern feel to it. Alcoholic beverages we're definitely plentiful. 4/5

I WISH I COULD GIVE A -5 STARS. 2 years ago, this place was PHENOMENAL... THEY HAD THE BEST FOOD AND BEST WAITRESS NAMED CULLY....Fast-forward 2 years and WHAT HAPPENED????? Visited and watched a bartender with waist-length brown hair braid, unbraid and braid her hair again. All the while making drinks. This same bartender brings our food out. I was missing lemon wedges for my crab dip and kindly reminded her that I was lacking them. I could NOT make this up...this bartender goes to the kitchen and brings my lemon wedges back to me.... IN HER HANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not on a new plate or saucer, but her hands! HER HANDS. MY LEMON WEDGES ARE CUPPED IN HER HANDS. Not only this, but to add insult to injury, she LEANS OVER MY ENTREE AND MY DAUGHTER'S ENTREE with her LONG BROWN BRAID! UGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH! She then plops the lemons on my plate of crab dip. On my plate. Not only did I witness this, but the table next to us watched on in disgust. I asked to speak to Manager Danny and he was very apathetic to what had just happened. I was grossed out beyond comprehension and although he offered to remake my food, I was disgusted and could only imagine what would happen to the new food in the back. Danny took the 2 items off and billed me for my daughter's food. Soooo disappointed in my Blackened Kracken.
