Customer Reviews
Had a good meal and wait time was only about 40 mins. The breading on the fish was a little too much, but the fish was good underneath. The shrimp and crab pasta was really good and the oysters were nice.
We have ordered take-out here more times than I can count (and obviously love it or we would have stopped) but today was the first time we dined in, sitting on the sidewalk bar seats for lunch. Food was top notch and so nice getting it fresh. Service was fantastic and loved the atmosphere of a busy ship bottom beach day walking/driving by. I had a crab cake and the Baja fish tacos special with fries while my son had clams with a side of clams and pasta (linguini and clams). BYOB but they do have some wines for sale. Take out here is also great and one thing I’ve always been impressed with is regardless of how chaotic it is or complicated the order I’ve never seen them mess it up.
The place is lovely looking. The young ladies were very happy to help you saw a bunch of people there for dinner so I tried it . The book doesn’t read like the cover ! Over priced ! And if the food had been good I could have gotten over the price for I was told the price before they started making it . It was fresh with not a drop of flavor. I have eaten low sodium chips that tasted better ! Beyond flavor less . I saw that you sell spices there for the take out side please asked the cook to walk over and grab one . Hell if he is afraid of flavor tell him to at least use the salt and pepper. I promise people will thank you for it The portion was very small to the price point. I will include pictures so it will not be hear say . When you look at the picture know that I ate one shrimp from
Try the Birch Beer (very sweet root beer) - that’s delicious. First time to have raw clams - very interesting and good. Enjoyed the chowder. Fried clams were good, too. Sweet staff. Restroom is outside.
I went to this location last night with family. The location is pretty good. We had a 35min wait which is reasonable on a holiday week. While waiting I noticed was how hard the hostess worked. It was impressive. Moving tables, herding the people in line and making herself available to answer questions. When seated our server was awesome, light hearted and efficient. Food was fantastic. Everyone enjoyed. I will definitely be back.
