    Very good 1st impression. We got seated and waited on quickly. The food came out quickly and was very good. The table we were seated at, we couldn’t watch the football game because the WiFi didn’t reach to the enclosed patio, which the temperature wasn’t too bad for winter. Didn’t need to wear my coat. When a table opened up inside they held it for us and moved us to be able to watch the game. The staff was very friendly. They have a good happy hour/football games menu. Thank you!

    The service was great and the food terrific. Not their fault but they ran out of mussels before we ordered them.

    Great vibe. Drinks were on point. Great variety of flavors. Overall food was very good but wouldn’t say excellent. Oysters were fresh and tasty. Blue crab dip was outstanding. Blue cheese chips were a nice surprise. Mussels could’ve used a bit more garlic and butter. Scallion pasta was tasty. Star of the night was the lobster roll. One of the best in town. Service was kinda meh. We finished our first round of drinks but the server never came back around and asked if we wanted another round. We had to ASK for another round of drinks. They filled our water jug consistently however.

    Great x10 service by the shift manager who always checked up on us in addition to our waitress. Highly recommend the ceviche, po boy, and corn clam chowder! Will revisit for NFL games.
