“ No need to ride to the beach for fresh seafood!! Flounder and shrimp were cooked perfect, the baked potato was also cooked perfectly!! Service was great. There was a line out the door still when we left. Deco is tradition to a seafood restaurant! We will be returning!!! I wish we would have tried the desserts! ”
“ I had a shrimp and oyster combination with fried okra and slaw. The oysters were delicious but the shrimp were too salty tasting. The okra was great but the slaw just so so. My wife had the baby flounder and shrimp combination. She loved the flounder but she also thought the shrimp tasted too salty. Our server was great. ”
