J.l.trent's Seafood Grill

To start with it was my daughter's birthday. So I let her pick wherever she wanted to go. So she picked J.L. Trent's. It was our first time there and it was absolutely amazing. A down home seafood restaurant with great ambiance and appeal. Southern charm and seafood at its best. The staff were very friendly and helpful not to mention attentive. I don't just mean one of them, I mean all, yes ALL of the staff were great. From door greeting and seating, to taking our drink orders, to our waitress Karen and even the bus crew and janitors were all amazing. When Karen was busy other staff helped out. Although Karen was an amazing waitress I must say. She let us take our time and order so we got exactly what we wanted. We were not ever rushed or pressured about or into anything. Our food came at it was A LOT and was on point to boot. From the calamari appetizer to our lobster feast for two. There was soooo much food we could not have eaten it all. We did eat until we were full and had plenty of leftovers. We hadn't noticed, but as my daughter and I were enjoying each other's company as well as our dinner the restaurant was closed. It was only after we were windng down and gettinghigh ready to go the I noticed that we were the only one's there. They had closed their doors 20 minutes or so prior to me noticing them cleaning up and still there was no hush to get us out and everyone was still helpful and as polite as could be. My daughter and had a great time. They made us feel at home and they made us feel like family. My daughter had a great time and a great experience that neither one of us will ever forget. Not only have they earned my business, but also my respect.

Nice local spot, every table full and people waiting. Everything seafood will fill your tummy. We started with the fried green tomatoes. A large portion, seasoned coating housing a big slice of tomato. Next up, fried corn. Crunch your way into the sweet, creamy corn center. Remember they just left the fryer and still piping ?. We all ordered the same entree. Fried oysters, shrimp and scallops, with a side of Mac n' Cheese and crispy French Fries. There was a long period of silence as we oohed and ahhhad our way through a mountain of goodness. If you like simple but good food Trents is your place. Save room for dessert.

At the first visit of this place. It was definitely a good experience. Our appetizer consisted of Peel and Eat Shrimp we ordered it hot as suggested by our server. It was pretty good. Messy? Yes, absolutely! I chose Fried Shrimp as my entree and had a side salad and a baked potato to accompany my dish. It was pretty good! Very friendly staff, clean installations, tasteful food and decent prices.

I went a few years ago and was not impressed. I'm so glad I left. Your food was amazing! Great food and great atmosphere. The servers were friendly and helpful. Make yourself a favor and try the green. They're fantastic!

We've been here for years. This is our favorite seafood restaurant in the area. It's okay. Always a kitty or 3 on the front porch. Very recommended.
