Great great fish fry, cant recommend this place enough. Had the vibes of a supper club and service was great. Very affordable and great for young families too.

On 2/15/2026 Ariel B. had this to say:
First off, the cheesecake was wonderful (we were so full from the dinner we had to take it home). The fish fry was delicious, batter was nice and crispy. The service was wonderful and our waitress was so friendly. This place is kid friendly too!!! definitely make sure to go early, go up to the register outside the dining room, put in your order, get a number and enjoy a drink from the bar while you wait for your number to get your food and sit down in the dining room room. It's a fun concept and a nice place! (Also bonus, they have an arcade for your littles)!
