History

Established in 1983 by the Thompson family, Dixie Crossroads started as a modest eatery and quickly grew in popularity due to its signature rock shrimp dishes, which were once discarded by fisherman but discovered to be a local delicacy by the founders.

Quick tip: Try the signature rock shrimp and arrive early on weekends to avoid lunch and dinner peak wait times.
