Haven't eaten here yet, but had a nice time sitting out on the patio and getting drinks one late Saturday night. They have cute little fires you can sit around on comfy sofas and chairs

Christina Davis

Great food, great location, and great service! Loved the fish & chips and my dining companions loved their soft shell crab and scallops and risotto .

Donna

Still working out the kinks . Where do the new places in Old Town find all these servers who have never been to a bar or restaurant before??

Alexa Jane Brooks

Great bar with live music !

Anita Louise

Really enjoyed the crab cakes and the remoulade was DELICIOUS!! Our server Tilvia was phenomenal!

Jared Campbell

The chicken wings and monkey bread are really good.

Kathy Bansek

Best tip: DON'T GO. The patio seating on a gorgeous day is inviting, but the service is terrible.

CC T

There was tons of food to choose from and $1 mimosas .

Phil Glockner

Their mules kick ass! (No pun intended)

Ana Rivas

What's good? The view , location, they need to improve food flavor, choices seem good, but what we tried wasn't what we expected in terms of flavor. Presentation was nice, I won't come back.

Natasha Korowajczuk

The restaurant has an interesting ambience. The server was nice and willing to get us acquainted with the menu. The food is overpriced and the entrees were a bit bland. Up for a second chance though.

Donna

Did you see this place already got two health code violations? OMG. Just drink here.

Donna

Check your bill. This place likes to add $5 to your total. Make sure the numbers add up.

John Kass

Great place for live music . Sit at the bar .

Beth

Service sucked! Fried green tomatoes had 6 small pieces of crab for $18... and WAY TOO MUCH PAPRIKA ! The scallops and shrimp risotto had NO flavor. Definitely wont be back!

Phil L

What's good here? The uninformed, unprofessional servers and pisspoor management.

Alex Linkey

Service was horrible. I never leave reviews like this, please spend your money else where. We hardly saw our waiter & after I slipped on a spill & informed the staff about it the staff did nothing.

Anna Worthington Forbes

The shrimp and grits are amazing!

Eden Ess

They have amazing crab dip .

Nathan Hicks

Great food and great view but mediocre service.

Michael was the BEST thing in our miserable experience here. We waited so long for a server we had to CALL them to get service & NO MANAGER ever came to apologize to us. NEVER PATRONIZE THIS PLACE

Edith Eshleman

Service = good. kitchen left much to be desired. Ordered filet mignon medium. first one well done sent back, 2nd rare & 3rd correct. manager did comp meal and a round of cocktails . disappointed

Maggie MacG

This place is nice and the food is good.

Micah P

Horrible service!! Wait a couple of months until they work out the kinks ...Great crab dip

Sarah W

Hated it. Much better food in old town . Service can more easily be fixed than quality of food. Food stinks.

Bob Webb

Great Brunch !

Brandon Bellamy

Service was horrible. Follow your rules.

Jest Mì

HORRIBLE SERVICE! Got seated outdoors at 5:00, 20 minutes later NO SERVICE AT ALL!!!!
