    This place is beautiful! Nice fireplace, unique bar seating ,and multiple seating areas. The food was great! The olives were to share served warmed with feta. I had the tomahawk pork chop and it was delicious. Someone else had the skirt steak with blistered Brussels and yuka fries. The presentation and taste was amazing. They had special cocktails - our server jj was the best. Save room for the banana bread pudding. You won’t want to miss it!

    Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.
