    The food and the service are always exceptional! I prefer the seafood/fish dishes. Last night we shared a Cesar and I had Sand Dabs. They were delicious and the mixed veggies weren’t overcooked.

    Everything about the restaurant was fine except the waiter and the owner. When we wouldn’t order our meal five minutes after we sat down the waiter informed us that he needed the table in two hours. It was embarrassing as we were taking a couple that we were with out for dinner The restaurant obviously doesn’t care about customer service; it was an uncomfortable way to finish the evening and we were of course done in two hours or less. We had to wait outside for an Uber and I did not see the table being turned over. When I spoke to both the server and the owner they were less than cordial It was an unfortunate incident and one that I am not interested in repeating

    We managed to reserve a table for two a couple of hours before our seating time on a busy Friday night. The service, quality of the main entrees, appetizers, dessert and wines were all at a top level. This was our second time visiting this restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised that everything was excellent, despite the restaurant being quite busy during both times.

    We absolutely loved this place. Our first visit and it didn’t disappoint. I had mushrooms soup and the fried oysters with a side of pasta and my husband had sand dab piccata which was wonderful also.
