Don't eat here unless you want a plate of grease. They should rename it the chum bucket. Also a literal child was working the counter. Burger was best part. Salad bar had brown lettuce and squishy tomatoes. Fries and onion petals were nothing but grease. Waitresses were super nice tho πŸ‘Œ

If you like cold fish sandwiches and French fries due to the frier being backed up(makes no sense right) this is the place for you. The burger is mediocre but hot damn those hush puppies are amazing.

My fiance and I had dinner here Saturday night. I am a photographer so I am constantly on the move for sessions, especially along the parkway. This was the closest restaurant to us so we decided to try it out and we were not disappointed. It may not look super fancy but the food was great! The salad bar was delicious and the staff was awesome! We had a great experience here and I would definitely go back!

We had been here over a year ago and the service was not good. Decided to give it another try. This time, the service was good, but the food however, was terrible. The fried fish platters are real gut bombs. I ordered the stuffed flounder and it was dry, tasted very fishy and did not taste fresh at all. I ended up only eating the baked potato and a little of the room temperature cole slaw. The hush puppies were good, but the fried coating upset my stomach for the rest of the night. And we have never been to a restaurant where you’re only allowed one trip to the salad bar, and given a plate the

Come for the food, stay for the hospitality and the scenery.
I enjoy driving and finding new places. The Mountain Aire Seafood and Steaks Restaurant proved to be a welcome surprise with its excellent choices in seafood.
I ordered the salt and pepper catfish with fries and sweet tea. The catfish was super tasty and the crust was unbelievably crunchy with the perfect blend of herbs and spices.
The fries and tea rounded out my meal and my check was very reasonable. Needless to say my dog Bruster was happy to see the doggie bag.
As I paid my bill, the owner made some hiking suggestions so I took
