Don't waste your time at the Foolish Frog or Dockside! Boondocks is the best! Our table had fried shrimp, crab cakes, flounder, Greek salad, burger, kids cheese pizza and key lime pie! We was a large group but waited on very fast. One of our favorite sides was the fried okra! Their prices are more reasonable also. I decided to write a review because we was only eating at locations that had the best reviews or someone local recommended. Boondocks deserves 5 stars! Someone local said Boondocks had new owners and the food had improved. We only wish we had eaten here earlier during our vacation.

This place was awesome! A hole in the wall that you can easily blink your way by. Don't do that. Crab stuffed flounder was excellent. Fried shrimp and scallops were both perfect. No easy feat for sea scallops. A party of 8 and everyone received their food perfectly cooked and fairly quickly. If you're out here, do yourself a favor. Give them a try.

Fabulous food on any day with fabulous people! My go to for blackened shrimp. Kids love it too! Great location. Highly recommended. Music Wednesdays, twice a month and cool festivities frequently on Saturdays too. (Live music every Wednesday and Saturday from 6pm-9pm *Boondocks Management)

Just What We Needed! We loved this place! We came in on a Monday night and headed right for the bar after reading the great reviews. Nothing snooty, with locals around and the bartender came right to us. She was very sweet and service was excellent all night! They had a lobster special going but we decided on shrimp and scallops with a crab cake starter. The crab cake was stuffed with so much blue crab that it fell apart and we ate it straight without even needing the homemade tarter sauce. The hubby had fried shrimp and scallops and I had mine broiled, everything perfectly cooked and cut like butter! 100% would come back (may even swing by again while we’re still in town) and recommend to anyone staying in the area. Great service, stiff drinks and no frills seafood was a perfect first night to our vacation!
