What People Are Saying
from Google"I went at a slower time, before the rush, and was able to get a small table inside to look out at the water. Really cool small establishment with big vibes! It got very busy as I was leaving, with a line waiting, so you know it's good and has a good following. I ordered a seafood platter scallops, shrimp, and crab and wasn't disappointed- seafood was cooked amazingly! And I rounded the meal off with a key lime pie - it was so fluffy and could easily feed 2! Didn't disappoint 💕"
"Absolutely loved the crap cakes and wedge salad. Oysters were good, just small. It was very noisy to the point I couldn't talk to the person sitting next to me without raising my voice. Very casual place."
"Was told these were the best wings on the strip and I could not argue against that! Delicious wings, great atmosphere and very close to the beach."
"The staff was nice enough. Extremely disappointed with the food and the value. I ordered the fried oyster sandwich "po boy" with bay fries. It was $18 after tax, market price. Market price typically means they are getting the seafood fresh. I watched them pull a retail brand bucket of oysters from the refrigerator. I got 6 tiny oysters on a tiny dinner roll. See picture. The cook who put them in the fryer forgot about them while he was working on another order. After about 5 minutes of frying, another guy ran over and pulled them out of the oil. He then took some old fries sitting at room temp in a bowl and reheated them in the fryer for my order. I'm sorry, is this a full service restaurant or fast food? As you can see in the pictures, the oysters were overcooked and the sandwich is tiny, like a Hawaiian roll size. Not anywhere near worth $18."
"This is definitely our absolute favorite breakfast place. We also dine for lunch and dinner -- but we never miss the breakfast when we're in town! The Orange Crush is 'crushin it'! The pancakes are the BEST! The staff is always awesome and now familiar to us since we come frequently during the summer months! It's a quaint place with some upgrades (windows, table & chairs, etc) but it always feels so welcoming ... love it! We'll see you in the spring Big Sam's! Highly recommend!"
