    The staff was very friendly and helpful! The food was delicious with very large portions. The largest crab cake I’ve ever seen and the best scallops I’ve ever had. All cooked perfectly! The setting was pretty on Lake Monroe. The music was just a little loud but not offensive. It was a wonderful meal!! Highly recommend!!! We will definitely be back!

    Had a couple of drinks. We hit to sit by the windows giving us a great view. His service, people were friendly. The appetizer of coconut shrimp was great with the marmalade. Yum- sweet potato fries. My husband would have liked to been able to grill some seafood and blackened others on the platter, but we were told they don't do that. All in all decent meals. We'll come back and try some other menu items to see if it still as good and worth future visits.

    We had a delicious dinner at this place! The Shrimp cajun pasta and New Orleans gumbo were full of flavors, and we also enjoyed peel-and-eat shrimp but the cup and bowl of gumbo are almost identical so order extra if u want more 😉. Regardless everything else was fantastic.

    I came here for my mom's birthday. She really wanted to be on the water and have a view and we couldn't have been happier. We are all huge seafood lovers and wanted great seafood. Came for lunch around 1-2pm on a weekday. It wasn't crowded at all. Quiet. The restaurant was clean and spacious. We sat at the tables overlooking Lake Monroe. We ordered 3 appetizers. Ahi tuna. Calamari and Conk fritters. The ahi was good but I've had better for the price. It was sliced more as a cube than a thin slice and the grain was off. But it was fresh and seasoned and plated well. The calamari was really good. Super fresh and the batter wasn't too greasy or heavy at all. I really liked the fried peppers it was served with. I didn't get to try the conk fritters but everyone else enjoyed them. My whole family all got grouper sandwiches and some catfish. Massive filets on the sandwiches. They didn't skimp at all! Great portion. I got a combo plate. It came with a grouper filet, some shrimp, some scallops and a big crab cake! All of it is made to your liking I asked for blackened. Everything was hot and fresh. I feel like the blackened seasoning could have been stronger it was very mild, but other than that I was very happy with it all I cleaned the whole plate. The fries were awesome. Really unique shape. Battered fry. I loved them. Also got 2 pina colada that were very tasty too. We had two servers working as a team so our table was always attended to very quickly. Excellent service. This was a must try and I would love to come back and get more items off the menu.

    The wait staff was attentive and sweet, very courteous. I called a couple of hours before going and they said they were slow and might close early. I should have taken a hint. I ordered the New Orleans Special. Worst plate of food I have been served in quite a while! The soft shell crab was lukewarm and very fishy, the catfish was the same and it tasted very muddy. The shrimp were good as well as the oysters. The best items were the French fries and the slaw. The "cooks", no chef in that kitchen, were bored and in a hurry to get home. No pride in their craft. Sanford had many other great places to eat. Many close by 10 so plan on going earlier rather than later. Very disappointed! Don't waste your time and money on this place.
