Fish

Grilled Wild Salmon

$28.90

Wild-caught salmon comes with asparagus and your choice of potatoes.

“Absolutely fantastic food. Pork chops were juicy and flavorful. Chicken piccata was perfectly cooked. The burger was JUICY. And the salmon also had great flavor. Deserts a hit all around. The best part was the service — friendly and nice. Very warm and welcoming. The place is a must after a long day at the beach.”

Shrimp

Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp

$28.90

Cajun-seasoned chicken and blackened shrimp with potatoes and vegetables.

“Our waitress Dina was amazing, very nice!! The service was astounding!! Croquettes were ridiculously great. The calamari is fried to perfection with pepper's that didn't seem spicy. Maybe baby bell peppers? Crispy either way and that's the only way. The skirt steak was cooked to exactly the rarest specifications. I must recommend the Blue cheese butter option. Bourbon chicken and Shrimp is my go to from now on. The side of roasted potatoes with a heap of onions and mushrooms was the business! I will be back for at least half of the dessert menu.”
