My husband only wanted the shrimp nachos... come to find out this is only a summer item. I got 2 orders of mozzarella sticks, but you can tell they weren't fresh.... my tender basket had burned grill marks on it?!? Not sure why. Could be and has been better.

BEAUTIFUL views from their outdoor seating area & GREAT food with amazing service sums this place up!!! We will be back!!!We enjoyed this place after being out on the lake for Dock-r-Treat. Such a welcoming atmosphere.Not only was their staff amazing to the customers but they were also amazing with welcoming in all the pups by taking them bowls of water ? ??I wish I had known about this place sooner!!! Go check them out if you haven’t!Kid-friendliness: All of the staff were extremely friendly to the kids as well as all the fur babies?

Local place, great food and fun. Now they have live entertainment a few days a week. Can't beat the view on Beautiful Lake Harding. Limited hours & days but always open for dinner on those days. The Owners & Staff are the Best! They add seasonal dishes to the menu. We love it here. (One note ** our Grandson got the kids Cheeseburger and it was way over done almost burnt...but we will make sure and order it cooked right next time :)

First time here. Came with a few friends who had a boat and pulled right up to the dock to eat..lol... Looks like a simple gas station from the road but what a cute restaurant. Order as soon as you walk in, sit down and they bring the food. Good thing we got there as soon as the doors opened on Friday cuz they got packed within an hour! Had grouper sandwich with fries and 2 whole fried catfish with 2 sides and 2 waters, $40ish. Food is very good and staff was so nice and really felt down home! Definitely would go back!

Good food, fast friendly service. Patio with a nice view of the lake. Musical acts during the summer.

Awesome local place. Good food and two great families serving you. My only criticism would be the ordering at the counter. Like to come in and sit down and be served. Not much on standing in line waiting for one person to take your order, it's certainly a bottleneck. You have enough table helpSo why not just take our orders table side. Overall love the place, great place on the lake to grab a burger and a beer/

They had a live band the night we went, which was nice to sit on the deck listen. The food service was a little slow. We just got a salad and some boneless wings. Salad was large. I would recommend sharing.

The whole catfish had a great taste and were fried to perfection. The hush puppies probably would have been good, but they were doughy in the middle. Other sides (collards, mashed potatoes, cheese grits, fries) were average. Great atmosphere with a beautiful view of the lake.

Went in to sit at the bar as I have done plenty of times before. There were two guys there already sitting. I moved two chairs to sit down and the owner told me there wasn’t any room for me to sit. Over half the bar was open! To make things worse he was very very rude in telling me. If the guy doesn’t want to run the restaurant then he should sell it.

The food at The Backwaters is AMAZING! We always order fried shrimp with slaw and fried okra. The shrimp remind me of Captain Anderson's restaurant in Panama City Beach! Their fried green tomatoes are on-point also! Crispy and tangy! The ambiance is lake-side casual with lots of picnic tables outside with deck seating too. On Wednesday nights, they have live entertainment which everyone enjoys outside.The only drawback is the long wait once u enter the door. You stand for 15 minutes until you place your order at the cash register, then you look for a table once you place your order. A server later brings you your food. The long wait is daunting because the place is packed by 6:30pm.I would give this cozy restaurant 5 stars if they would allow you to take a seat first and a server take your orderHopefully, they will change the system soon. All the staff are super nice and sweet! Great restaurant overall!!!
