    It was the crowded and the service was so slow. Waitress forgot our appetizer and brought 2 of the wrong meals. Nothing else as done for the mistakes or acknowledged. Also would not let us use our gift cards bc they weren’t entrees but 2 adults got meals off the brunch menu. Very disappointed.

    I am a tough critic I will admit. But I didn’t think the food was particularly memorable.

    I needed a lunch spot with a variety of foods and ample parking for friends who were recovering from surgeries. This was a great location. The server was attentive. The crab and lobster dip was okay but the lunches we ordered were excellent. No complaints from anyone in our party. The only suggestion I have is to include the prices for all of the cocktails.

    Food was fine. Service was mostly good too. They were “out” of the Cabernet by the glass. No apology, and I guess they have never heard of selling another wine they have by the glass instead of just by the bottle. I liked this place when they first opened a few years ago, but it is things like this that have prevented me from coming more often. Every time we come here, there is something stupid that detracts from the experience. The last time, they brought the appetizer after the mains. It’s a shame because the place has potential.

    Our first time there. Food was excellent but the service was not great. After asking twice for silverware and bread plate we got it ourselves from another table. By then the bread was cold. My soup had to be sent back to heat it was barely warm. We will try you again but not on a weekend. It is obvious you can’t handle a crowd.

    This is an excellent spot for a friends luncheon! We enjoyed bookmaker salad (spectacular), the crab quiche, fish and chips and the shrimp salad! Crab soup is very good, a bit pricey. Smith Island cake... the best! And thanks to Aislinn C. our super server! Attentive and helpful!

    I reviewed the menu before making the reservation. The menu of specials was even MORE impressive! It was extremely difficult to make a selection since everything sounded so good! We shared a generously-portioned calamari appetizer. I had the delicious Carolina trout; my friend had the St Mary’s salad. We had creme brûlée for dessert. We can’t wait to come back and try some of the other selections. We’d like to praise Derek for his patience while we asked questions and pondered our entree choices. Derek was very knowledgable about the menu items.

    Food was incredible! Server was top notch. Nice and quiet. Not a fan of the credit card convenience fee.
