Great restaraunt. Seafood is fresh and prepared very well . Oysters were fresh. And the service was excellent. Everything is reasonably priced.
I would recommend the Filet Mignon with Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus . I would definitly return to this restaurant . Our server was awesome.
The waitstaff is great. Monday night lobster dinner is $20 can't be beat. They do have a fruit fly problem however, so check your glass of red wine before you drink it. I'd still come back regardless.
Best happy hour special - $10 for a half dozen oysters and a glass of bubbly!
On Sunday you can get Bunch early or All You Can Eat Crab Legs Sunday Night . Monday is Lobster Night .
Ribs are where it's at! Unexpected but very good.
Lobster night on Mondays. Great price and great food.
We enjoyed the mussels and clams
Monday is Lobster night and Sunday is all you can crab legs (3 kinds to choose from)
Had the grilled Mahi . Tasty!
