Amazing! We found this restaurant after another place said open online but was closed in person. Husband googled the type of place we wanted & said, "I think I found the spot!" We had our teenage daughter & her bff w/ us- they both LOVED it, "ngl low-key better than that other place" & after the food & entertainment it was 100% better. Nice setting, food, atmosphere & our waiter was amazing also. Great family friendly late night place. We'll be back :) def visit if youre in SP ! 10/10 We got the beef nachos,chicken nachos and the taco sampler. Just a warning- the servings are HUGE!Def shareabl

We stopped here because we had taken a trip on the Southern Wave and this spot was recommended. We loved the live music and enjoyed a stunning sunset. It was a great vibe. However, the food was not what we were expecting and it wasn’t very good. Our server was really friendly but she may have been stretched a little thin because we only saw her when we ordered and then for our bill. We would have ordered different food and more drinks. Overall, cool place, great atmosphere.

The burgers are really good and huge! I got the Texan Burger. I love my meal. However the chicken tenders do have a fishy taste so keep that in mind. There is a bar to order drinks, live music and a small dance floor. It is outside so it’s best to come at night for that fresh breeze. The service was quick with our food but not good with checking up on you.

This past Saturday the 9th my wife brought here. And I might say I liked the place. The fried fish I got tasted like it came straight out of the ocean and onto my plate. Hehe! Definitely coming back. Waitresses were very nice and attentive.
