This is the real thing. They serve local fish and shrimp that's in season, and allegedly the building is made from the wood of old shrimp boats. It's a very laid back T-shirt and shorts place, and cheaper than most seafood joints. You can sit on the deck outside and watch the fishing boats and large ships pass by.
