I have been eating here for 50 years. The fish is crispy and tasty. The onion rings are huge. Serving sizes are large. My husband and I share one fish sandwich and one order of onion rings and don't leave hungry! The ambience is fun and casual.

Always fabulous. You can never go wrong with whatever you order. Fish, chicken,onion rings, or even turtle soup which is a must at least once in your life. They have really spruced up the place over the years. There is not a better place to go to relax have a nice meal. It's best when you take friends,but if you don't I'm sure you will see someone you know.
