Katie D . is crazy. This is real seafood , I know it's a chain... It may be $5 more per entree than some crap lime red lobster , but that is ALL FROZEN! also the waitstaff is great.

Order the crab cake lunch special just before they switch over to the dinner menu and be amazed when your meal comes out as quickly as ordering a Big Mac at McDonalds.

The white Sangria is delicious! Light and not too sweet.

I love their clam chowder , but we had a terrible experience here recently. The service was extremely inattentive, orders were wrong, items forgotten, dishes never cleared. Too expensive for that.
