Had a wonderful meal! The pork chop was out of this world and the Jinks Creek salad was enough to feed four people. We will be back!

We were seated right away at our reservation time. Our appetizer, drinks and food all came out timely. The chef even made an appearance stopping at each table. Fantastic night, I could see all the staff (plenty of staff) hustling all night.

This food was delicious. As a table we had two appetizers (calamari, southern style egg roll) and our entrees were Fried snapper, fried oysters, fried shrimp, the Jewels of the Sea, and the pork chops. All of it was cooked and seasoned well and absolutely delicious. We also had the Key Lime Pie which was tart and refreshing. The restaurant was busy but service was still good.
I will be visiting again.

The hostess seemed annoyed we were early. We went in the bar and had a great drink. I actually think we should have stayed in the bar as the ambience was better in there. Food was okay. May try again,

Food was pretty gross- you could tell half the seafood was frozen. Bummer when you pay that price too. Great staff, good drinks.
