Good but nothing like it used to be. As someone that travels frequently on business I know the struggles all restaurants are having right now but as much business as this place does the quality of the food itself is sub par and not the standard it once was. They did a bunch of remodeling to give "more elbow room" but the dining area is still the same, in fact I think the area that the old original bar was in is smaller and have taken away the feel of literally being right on the water. My assumption is the owners are now more concerned about the nice houses they built for themselves and the new gift shop and vacations at Disneyworld during off season they have sacrificed the core business. 3 of us did the Sunday special of chicken and shrimp and they barely brought enough for one person, after waiting for another round they only brought out a little more. It used to be they brought out enough you didn't need to ask for seconds.

The drive back is not real clear and sometimes you think you are on the wrong rode but keep going. Very pretty place with 2 ponds and a great restaurant. Sit on the patio, have a few drinks and watch the waterfall. Relaxing!!

Haven't been here in over 8 yrs. Brought back Some good memories coming back. I love the new look! Seen a few familiar faces. Still have great food, the ambience was live and exciting. We had the Catfish and the Chicken dinner. Just as I remember. My tummy was very satisfied. Keep up the great work guys. I'll be back!!
