A fun old time Florida bar and restaurant . Some might call this a dive bar but the food is great and the staff is friendly . I am becoming a regular.
Great place, live music every night, best country fried steak I've found south of my hometown in Missouri.
Delicious hamburgers ! JR was very friendly . First time every eating there but will be back again!
The country fried steak is very goo. Just like back home up north. Laid back atmosphere . Band tonight was awesome!! Splurge on some chocolate peanut butter pie if avail! Mmmm good!
JR's Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is TO DIE FOR! I would upload a picture of it but I was too busy inhaling it!
The Cuban Sandwich is one of the best. Awesome Black Beans and yellow rice . They put fresh cilantro on the beans, so if it's not your thing, ask them to keep it off
Great off the beaten path find, with delicious food and drink specials .
Best seafood chowder anywhere made fresh on Fridays... When it's gone, it's gone!!
Ybor Burger is THE BEST burger I've had in a while, possibly ever
It's open again! No peanut butter pie yet, but I have hope.
Mmmm...Blackened Shrimp from OPC! My favorite!
Food made and cooked upon ordering. Good home cooking !
Shrimp and Grits !!! Ate until I could eat no more!!
Friendly staff food looks good. Appearance is a little too backwoods for my taste.
Best chowder and only on Fridays ! Oh and the best wings in town !
Thursday night Jambalaya and Blacken Catfish !!!!
Get the OPC cheese burger with fries . Sooooooo good!
