Very good food here. I like the fact its BYO . The only drawback is no reservations . It can be very tough to get in there on Thursday through Saturday. "Black and Blue" filet is amazing.

From the online menu: Lobster Sliders Hand-picked fresh Maine lobster with a touch of celery and mayonnaise and fresh-squeezed lemon juice on two sweet slider buns with Rub Fries or House salad . Read more

This place has a very, very solid kitchen. Try the lobster tacos for appetizer and the bacon mac and cheese as a side.

Felipe Veiga

The crab cakes salad was very good!

Bill Atkins

Food is good, BYOB is great, customer service is RUDE. Reservations are useless, you'll still wait an hour. Kinda like the Soup Natzi on Sienfeld, people seem to like to be abused.

Pam Graham

Not happy that we had a reservation for 8 people at 8:30 and we are STILL waiting for our table????@ 9:02. Seems like if you knew you had a big party coming? You wouldn't continue to seat tables of 2&4.
