Saw this on Triple-D and figured I had to check out. Had 1/2 dozen each of raw and grilled oysters ... absolutely incredible! Our waitress , Samantha, was terrific. We'll be back for sure!

Kevin Cronin

The oysters are some of the best I’ve ever had! I grew up on Long Island NY and shellfish was everywhere and fresh. The oysters at 55 met and exceeded my expectations.

Jacob Heine

The food is fair and the seating is tight. I had the Beef Brisket Tacos and the brisket was lacking the smokey flavor (or really much flavor at all). My wife had the Pro Boy and rather enjoyed it.

Bryan Downey

All the appetizers were really good. Everything else I saw going by looked just as good. Dessert was also amazing.

Solid cocktails . Above average shrimp and grits . Hot Nashville was plus.

Tim Edwards

If you get the fried pork chop sandwich , order it grilled and get extra avocado . It's the tits.

The Boudin Fritters were delicious, as were fried pickles/jalapenos and JJ’s Junk Chips . The Roast beef sandwich was terrific, just wish the bread was a higher quality. Seafood gumbo was delicious! Read more

If there is no parking out front, use the garage in front of Pucketts, or the parking lot behind the building. Easy peasy.
