   It was our anniversary, and the staff went all out for us from the minute we checked in. Great food, great service plus a glass of Prosecco and an ice cream dessert on the house. Thanks for a memorable night!

   We got there at 5;30 because we had young kids. The service was incredibly slow and all the food tasted like it was under a heat lamp for 30 minutes. They constantly apologized and said the food was almost ready, but all they served were excuses. My food was not hot and very dry. They offered to make a new dish , but at that point we had already been there for 90 minutes and kids were more than ready to leave. The restaurant was very crowded so maybe others had a different experience. We will never go there again.

   Really poor in comparison to southeast waterfront version . Menu is minimal and there were no fresh caught seafood specials. Portions were small.. very disappointing outing.

   Food was excellent and staff service was great. The oysters were fresh and tasty, and all were without shells! We are glad to find another great seafood restaurant in this area!

   Octopus & tuna appetizers were very good. Shrimp Caesar salad was a big disappointment limp & bitter. Ambience good & server was great. Hope food is better next time.

   Great experience. Our server was outstanding and the food was terrific. Nice wine and beer selection and delicious oysters. Great date night out for this married couple.

   Average food preparation, limp fries with average fish, oysters, scallops. Side salad below standard— lettuce only, no attempt to hide mediocrity. Way too expensive for the quality.

   We were 3 for dinner and we all enjoyed our meal. They have a special menu with items clearly marked for gluten free, dairy free, etc. Makes it easy. Fish was very good.

    Espresso martini was amazing, oysters were very fresh. But the best part was Lauri our server!! She was so kind and attentive, and gave us awesome recommendations. She made our whole night that much better. Ask for her!
