A nice casual seafood restaurant with waterside dining. Great place to catch a sunset while dining for dinner or sipping a cocktail. You wait on a line to make your order and pay, then you get your table, stool or chair, and your food is brought to you. Super casual in all ways. A little on the high side as it relates to price. They could make it a bit clearer as far as the ordering, service and seating goes, but you won’t get lost. It’s much larger than it looks from outside.

On of my favorites. It gets crazy during the summer as there is limited seating. But winter is also gorgeous. Beautiful views of the water, wildlife and sunset. The soup is always delicious, lobster roll extremely generous and the linguini and clams is out of this world. The portions are right for the price and the local beer is a nice touch. Service is always extremely friendly. During the summer I love the mudslides and sitting in the water during the day!

Don’t come here. Much too good for you. We don’t want you blowin this spot up. BEST KEPT SECRET 🤫 GO AWAY! NOT INVITED. Stay home. For real, low key best family summer spot on the island. Entirely kid friendly tidal beach with more wildlife that you’ll know what to do with. Being a net and bucket if you have toddlers. Food is epic and beach side, bar is a MOVIE in a bait and tackle shop. Endless summer and the most iconic family core memories. But don’t come. Don’t want you here!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Rachel O'Day · Aug 2025

Came on a Saturday and the wait was so long, was told 1 hour 45 and were waiting for over 2 hours. Service at table was very friendly but they are overworked, kitchen very small so food takes a long time. Food is good, but definitely a bit overpriced. Crab tacos were excellent and had a lot of lump crab. Fish and chips also good. Lobster salad disappointing, small portion of meat and only lettuce and tomato. Worth coming once a year for the experience and good cocktails.

Their cocktails are spectacular! We ordered Blue Paradise and Buoy Tea, feel buzzed in 20-30mins. Nice hangout with some foods as well. But don’t order the fish taco, it’s not fresh. And I only eat one piece of that in the evening I vomited. And my mom she got diarrhea. I don’t know what they put in the food. But it’s bad food.
