★★★★★ 5.0 Mark Sherrett · Jan 2026

We had a great time and great food. Standard meal approach of drinks, apps, dinner and dessert. Our service person took good care of us and answered our out of town questions. Drinks were presented well, and they had a local draft beer for me to try. We asked the server to set us up with all the locally caught types of oysters that they had on their menu that evening, and she took care of us. All were really mild and very tasy. The shrimp corndogs were a good novelty, and the tuna Tartare was great! My blackened swordfish was presented in a sauce that enhanced the flavor of the fish. The fresh catch was presented similarly, but over a bed that included vegetables. The seafood platter was a lot of food, plenty left over to take home. Dessert was exceptional. Key Lime was creamy and tart,

Came for Restaurant Week and loved it. The oysters were obviously great, but the shrimp corn dogs were the real star. Easily one of the best bites I’ve had in a while. The courses were thoughtful and well paced, and everything flowed really nicely. We were told upfront that Restaurant Week is all or nothing for the table, which worked out since all six of us wanted it anyway. The space is quaint and cozy and the overall vibe made for a really enjoyable dinner. Would definitely come back.

We came here for dinner to celebrate my friend’s birthday after looking at their menu. It was a really nice day out so we opted to sit outside. We started with the calamari steak cut and it was pretty good, but felt like it could’ve been crispier but based on how they were cut like “steak fries” it was more on the soft side. The crab cakes with mash potatoes were bigger than I expected. The mash was a touch too salty for me, on top of the already savory crab cakes and sauce so it was a little over powering although the flavors were good. My favorite dish was the risotto with seared scallops. They had the perfect sear and texture along with the creamy risotto. Our server checked on us from time to time but we didn’t converse with her much. We didn’t get offered anything for her bday and it

★★★★☆ 4.0 Mark Armstrong · Nov 2025

I had been recommended to this restaurant by a couple of people, so I stopped by for a brunch. The staff are friendly but seemed confused a little, perhaps because they had just opened up, not sure. The seafood tower was good but not great. Some of the shrimp were mushy and over cooked. The fish sandwich (not shown), was good, however it seemed to take a time to bring to the table, that was ok, but then the French fries came separately and 10 minutes later, so I guess the kitchen messed up. The shrimp corn dogs were good and worth ordering. They have a nice oyster bar and the oysters on the tower seemed fresh and good flavor.

The she crab soup was great, and the shrimp corndogs are a must try! The daily special was mussels in a Classic or Curry preparation, and we tried both. They were both delicious, but the curry ones were definitely my favorite!
