    Shrimp and grits for the win!! Three of the five of us had them. The grits were creamy. The blackened shrimp had just enough of a kick, and the bacon onion jam very tasty. The other two ordered the smash burger and the smoked salmon bagel. Both were very good. We sat outside and it was a delight!

    Unfortunately, our food order was placed and came about the same time as our salads and we had little room on the table for all the food. Our waiter apologized but the food was already on the table. Entrees were good especially the lobster roll that was loaded with lobster. Seabass entree had coconut risotto which was very tasty. Asked if one our mealmates would return he shrugged his shoulders and said probably not.
