Small town fish camp. Fresh fish caught and brought in and cooked daily. Everyone is nice and friendly food is made to order so it can take some time but still great. Gives me an old country vibe

Just as GREAT as the reviews! Large portions of fried oysters and shrimp. The wife and I split the 2 item plate and still took a few home. Amazing fresh onion rings in a light shifted flour coating. Fish camp style so paper plates and plastic cups. Wait staff were friendly and prompt. They never stopped. When a table left they immediately cleared the table so you don' t have to stare at dirty dishes like you do at our local Applebee's. Nice tropical view out the large dining room windows!!!

This is my favorite place for Seafood in the Brandon area. I’m basically there almost every weekend. It’s my go too place when I want a little “me time”, with great food and phenomenal service. My usual are shrimp, catfish or grouper, fried oysters, and Modelo of course.

Friendly place, relaxed atmosphere, and okay food. We had gotten early dinner at Fat Willie's on a Friday. The diner was not busy when we got there. By the time we left, business was picking up and the parking lot was full. We tried the blackened Mahi, grilled Grouper, gator bites, fried pickles, the key lime pie, and mudslide pie. The one thing I did not like is that they ask you to pay for the food and tip when you place your order. The ladies taking our order were nice and helpful, however, the waitress forgot about our appetizers and brought them out after the rest of the food. The fried food tasted like fried food, nothing special. The fish was a little on the dry side and the dessert was underwhelming. For this type of diner/restaurant, it was a bit on the expensive side (with tip, just over $70). Was it cool to go there once, yeah. Will we be back, probably not. In response to the comment below, I am aware of the employee shortage! When we arrived, there there were at least seven employees (people that at least appeared to be employed there) that I am sure we’re getting ready for the Friday night rush. From my short time in the service industry, seven people should have been able to take care of two tables worth of guests. I do appreciate the reply, it shows you actually read the reviews and might use them to improve the perceived shortfalls that others see.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I haven't tasted anything there that i wouldn't order again. If your not sure, ask your waitress and they will probably bring you a sample. Great food, even better folks.

Is it wheelchair accessible?

Grace Irwin | Aug 24, 2018
george taylor | Aug 24, 2018

Yes, but it can get busy. Call ahead and explain what you need. There are two levels, you will want to be on the top entry level. Parking can be a premium, handicap parking is available, but not that many spots. If you park across the road, be sure your vehicle clears the sidewalk, else a citation is the result. Enjoy, it is a great place with good food and friendly staff.
