Well, I have to say we went on a hot day, not the restaurant's fault, but it was muggy outside. The food was good with good portions. The heat just took away from the experience. They have fans, but some table locations had no airflow, so it didn’t matter; you would be warm. The waitress was ok and good but not personable, and in the end, we had to wait nearly 15 mins to get our checks picked up after asking someone to find her. If your looking for good food and a pleasant atmosphere look no further be prepared for a wait as there are no reservations and it can get quite busy.

Delicious food. Our waitress was very friendly and made us feel welcome and comfortable. She was also very knowledgeable of the menu. My crab stuffed grouper was delicious and packed with crab. They have the best sweet potato fries we’ve ever eaten. Great experience dining here.

Third time here and we’ve ordered the Mussels Chardonnay and Mike’s Bayou Shrimp each time and we’re never disappointed! They’re both so delicious and bursting with flavor. This time we decided to also try the Mahi-Mahi Bites which were great. The view is amazing and we got to enjoy watching some dolphins that kept making an appearance. We have a great experience every time we go. Highly recommend.

Our food was amazing, fresh and well spiced, customer service was up to standard, if you visit and is hot outside, seat inside, the view is beautiful outside but it is so hot! We had a great time!

A waterside restaraunt with great views, casual and friendly service with a delicious menu. I had the grouper sandwich. It was prepared beautifully and was complimented with delicious coated French fries. The beer was cold and offer in bottles and draft, which was a bonus. Super fun spot to people watch and enjoy the beautiful water view.

The ATMOSPHERE is lovely! The waitress, Megan was friendly, smiles, efficient, busy, and very attentive! The food was very timely and DELICIOUS with a wide range of choices. See the menu photos for pricing and selection. The crabcakes are truly crab and the crab rolls were very tasty. Many sauces for each app. Now were are going to enjoy some key lime pie, carrot cake, coconut cream pie, and chocolate madness lava cake!

Great views. Laid back. Food was good. I can't stand country music, so that was a bit like nails on the chalkboard. But it was about half country, half reggae. So only felt like throwing up about half the time. The key lime pie was AMAZING. And at $7.50 a slice, it better be. Oh, and the water tasted awful.

Very friendly welcome from Alicia who happen to also be our server and was absolutely fantastic. Great atmosphere and everything we had was outstanding. The mussels were the best we've eaten and the grouper tacos and mahi tacos didn't disappoint at all. Drinks were great so definitely go try this restaurant.

We stopped by Big Hickory on our way back from a day at Lovers Key State Park and had a very nice dinner and great drinks. It was casual enough that even in our beach coverups with wind-blown hair we felt welcome and at ease. Food was really good - we especially loved the Spicy Crab Rolls and Mike’s Bayou Shrimp. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in the area!
