Customer Reviews
Had a great meal. Renee our server was an absolute delight. Good prices and delicious seafood. We have been here multiple times and will be back again.
We stopped in for lunch and got the Salt T's steam pot. The food was really fresh. It comes with 12 oysters, 1/2 lb gulf shrimp, 1 lb crab, 12 clams, 2 half corn cobs and slaw. The service was really good and atmosphere is great. Try the painkiller mixed drink.
Been here a few times and oysters and wings were good. Drinks are great! Not the cleanest restrooms our last visit with a few funky bugs crawling around which was noted and concerning. Definately far from upscale eating, but you can chuck your own oysters which is fun!! Always seems a bit understaffed, but they're always very working hard to serve everyone there.
I was not impressed with this place. It was in a nice location. When we arrived we noticed a man and woman setting out side. The man was holding a puppy in his arms like a baby. Not thinking anything about that other than people outside with their pet. We took our seat and then the same man came inside and washed his hands. Welp come to find out he was the one preparing the food in the back. Should have left when he came inside. Not a good look from where I stand. I do realize people love of pets but sometimes things should be seen. Needless to say that was our last time at this establishment.3/7/2026.
Ugh had such high hopes for this place! I never leave reviews but felt compelled to make this one! After a long drive to Durham for my husband’s surgery … he wanted seafood prior to surgery. I found this place and the lobster rolls looked great! Well… the service was good, very sweet waitress but the food was very disappointing! I questioned if it was even lobster. Can’t believe we paid $70+ for two lobster rolls, 2 drinks and an appetizer. The one picture shows what their lobster rolls look like on line and the other is what we got! Unbelievable!! We were starving and ready to go to bed for the upcoming cancer surgery in the am so we paid our bill and left. We will never come back to this restaurant.
