This ended up being an amazing accident. We were looking at going to a few other places however these waits were over an hour. This is a true gem. Family owned and run and the food was amazing.
Casual dining that all will enjoy. Perhaps best to make a reservation as it does get busy during dinner hour. We enjoyed the fried shrimp, grilled amberjack, and flounder. Loved the old time sea shack atmosphere. You will truly be glad you enjoyed their
ambiance!
Great family owned place. The food was fantastic, big portions, and something for everyone. Big thank you for making our family vacation even better.
Our kids' orders of fried flounder & fries were delicious. My kids are all of it and said it was the best ever. They loved the fries too. We shared the fried seafood platter & the fish was so fresh. The batter was perfect, crispy, and light. All the sauces were homemade & tasty. It was worth the wait. They are a small family-run restaurant that is more about great fresh food.
Decided to drop in this cozy little grill. Visiting for the weekend for some birdwatching in port aransas(24th annual whooping crane festival!!). Walked in from the porch it was around 50 degrees and nobody was outside but inside was full. The waitress immediately made us feel at home and took us to the last open table. I had a glass of pinot grigio. She oriented us and we were off to a tour of gulf coast seafood exploration and delicious taste. Starting with the gumbo I knew I was in for a good night when the seafood packed gumbo spiced and delighted my tastebuds. The gumbo was some of the best I've ever had. I also had a blackened flounder and 3 gulf shrimp("gils special") sides of coleslaw and red beans and rice hit the spot and left no room in my stomach. This was some of the most flavorful and wonderful fish I have had. The blackened spices were done right and left me wondering how do they achieve the balance it was utterly perfect. My mom had the crab stuffed shrimp. She described it as heaven. My wife had the crab cake and was also very satisfied. My dad had the surf and turf(rib eye ordered medium rare was slightly over cooked and in many parts medium well.) He still enjoyed the steak and shrimp. Overall lesson here is you come for the seafood and leave very satisfied. If we come back to port aransas we will know where to come. Unfortunately they had run out of pie(probably because its so good) so I didnt get to try any of the key lime.
