Interesting bit of 'real Florida' - local bands, decent food at reasonable price. We visited on a rainy day while there was a festival of sorts - not recommended for the 'NY Fancy Crowd', but fun and great beer selection.

Really enjoyed the old time Florida atmosphere. The food is outstanding. Service is awesome! We enjoyed listening to the musical performance of DoR. Great variety of music they performed. Highly recommended for friends, families or just a fun get together.

Turn down a little dirt road at the end of river road in Venice Florida. Listen for the live music and smell of wonderful aromas from the country kitchen.Stand on the banks of Myakka river and watch the gators float by. Try the pulled pork and that's right gator bites and frog legs.Great burger and chicken.Full meals or a bar snacks. they have it all. Beer and wine with some great iced tea, This is a treat for the whole family. Not you typical Florida food or location. Just wonderful and no salt water in site.

Relaxed atmosphere. Had a nice lunch. We will be back. Didn't see any live gators. Saw one snake though.
