  Don't expect much. It is a mini golf combo. The food is typical bar food.
  Boneless chicken wings were good. Fries - average, nothing amazing.
  Frog legs - good....Philly Steak -good... BBQ Pork Sandwich - good.
  Ham & Cheese Sandwich, sucked, didn't melt the cheese and ham was not all that.
  
  Service was extremely slow, not overly friendly either. You can do better as far as food in the area. This place occupies the kids so you can drink some beers. That is about all.

  Food was ok many items were forgotten.
  Afraid to mention to the waiter of the omission.
  The owners husband seemed a little hostel.
  Would not recommend this place to people traveling,
  He didn't seem to care for the tourist.

  Went to this restaurant based on the first 2 reviews. . .and glad we did!  I join in singing their praises.  Only one correction:  they offer all-you-can-eat Snow Crab legs EVERY Friday night now.  Full of local folks so you know it's good.

  Dinner and golf outing with the family while visiting St George Island.  Kids played golf, while the adults had some beers.  Our waitress was really good, considering we were a group of 12 (8 grown-ups and 4 kids), she was all over it.  We ordered raw oysters, fried shrimp, fried oysters, fried fish, grilled fish, and more beer.  Everything was really good, obviously fresh, and very flavorful.  Although most of it was fried, nothing was overly greasy.  The draft beer was really good and really cold.
  
  Don't be quick to judge this place.....lots of locals showed up while we were having dinner which is an obvious sign of a good place.  It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the little golf course kept the kids busy and the food is much better than a lot of places on the island.  Give it a try if you're visiting the island.

  OK... I always thought this was just the local Mini Golf AKA Putt-Putt.  
  
  I was surprised when I rolled up and they had a banner that said "ALL YOU CAN EAT SNOW CRAB EVERY OTHER FRIDAY".  
  
  I thought to myself that is the craziest thing I have ever heard.  Putt-Putt and Snow Crab what planet am I on... Ohh yes we are in Eastpoint, FL just off the bridge from St. George Island on the Forgotten Coast right on the corner of HWY 98.  
  
  So if you are here on St. George Island  the food can be hit or miss.  More often a miss than an hit that is for sure.  But the Red Pirate was a pleasant surprise.  So on to the food.
  
  Food:
  I had the "Peel N Eat Shrimp" $9.95 was perfectly cooked with really good flavor and it was 1/2 lb maybe 3/4 lb.  My wife got the "Shrimp Sampler" comes with 2 sides $12.95 and again cooked perfectly.  My son got his usual Hamburger $4.95 "Kid's Version and he ate it all.  
  
  Drinks:
  OK get this Draft Beer (Bud, Bud Light or Miller Light) $1.00.  YES that is correct $1.00 and it was Ice Cold which is kind of hard to come by in these parts in the summer.  They have bottle beers as well and all the other usual drinks.
  
  Atmosphere:
  Keep in mind this place is casual.  You get plastic silverware and the food comes on plastic plates or baskets.  But they have a good sports bar vibe with tons of TVs to keep you entertained.  If you "eat" you get a discount on the Mini Golf.  Its good fun and with a beer in hand its hard to beat.
  
  Waitstaff:
  The waitress was very nice and we got very good service.  The owner was great and she had that fantastic southern charm.
  
  I give this place 5 Stars because the food was really good.  Don't be freaked out by the Putt-Putt vibe and just go with it...  :-)  If you like good food give them a try.
