We passed this place many times and never tried to go in. The first time we did go on we were advised we needed to have reservations. I don't know of that is all of the time or if it is just during the busy periods only. But I finally made the reservation and got a table for us to go and try this restaurant out. It was busy and packed, so the reservations, at least at that time made sense. Apparently our table wasn't ready so they offered us another table with high chairs and gave us a free round of drinks. So that was nice. As far as the menu, it is a little difficult to follow as the font is very small and there is a lot of choice for foods, steak and fish primarily. I have to say the prices seemed high. I am not sure if this is normal or if higher due to COVID and droughts and such. The stuffed mushroom was good with soft and tasty crab meat. The side salad was left to desire more for the cost of food here, very basic. The cream of crab soup was delicious. The stuffed mushroom were good, but the same stuffing that was used for the mushroom, so no difference in taste. The crab cake, again, seemed like the same taste as the other stuffed products we had. As far deserts, they only had 3 and all were cakes (cheesecake, peanut butter cake and key lime pie) so we opted to defer. But overall the staff were very pleasant and kind, they were attentive despite being very busy and the food was delicious (albeit expensive for the portions you received). It doesn't necessarily scare us away from future visits from this restaurant though.

Our favorite restaurant! The crabcakes are phenomenal, and the crab dip is the best I've ever had, by far! The service is always exceptional, and the food comes out quick and perfect every time. I can't say enough great things about The Paddock!
