They had a full house on Mothers Day ! Luckily we made reservations and were seated right away. Drinks and appetizers came fast . The entree did take 40 mins to come out and our waiter never brought bread to our table until we asked . But overall very good food and service. Clean , inviting atmosphere and would go back during their Snow crab season as this time they only had King Crab and Soft shell crab .

Filet burnt, lobster not fully cooked, walleye filets were delicious but only half-size and better suited for a lunch offering vs dinner entrees.

Great service and food. Oysters were tasty and the ability to customize surf and turf was fantastic. A few more wine by the glass options would be good but those we had were good. Birthday dessert was very well done. Thank you Shaws!
