Much more of a dinner spot than a lunch. However it looks like the menus are the same. Place was super clean and well appointed with a cherry and friendly atmosphere. The staff was attentive and I wanted for nothing. I had the fish pole boy sandwich which was very tasty. I should have asked for more mayonnaise though. I will come again

Loved, loved, loved everything about this place. This review is overdue and unfortunately I don't remember the name of the server that assisted us, but she was great!!! As you'll see by my other reviews, we love seafood and there's something special about a crab boil. We seek them out wherever we go and this place was a gem. The fried oysters melted in our mouth. The boil was plentiful and perfectly seasoned with finger-licking sauce. We had drinks that were delicious and strong. And we loved the bag that they gave us for our to go order. I had to take a picture of the exterior to make sure to remember to leave this review and here it is :-) Thank you!

Came for a late lunch on a hot day. AC blasting. Great Happy Hour 2 for 1 beers were cold from 12-6:00 daily. Crab legs and custom seasoning was really good. Had the fried shrimp appetizer. Shrimp were large and the batter was light and crispy. Will be back again for dinner. Really cool decor and good music made for a great dining experience.
