The Ribeye was perfectly cooked and extremely flavorful. The veggies were tender and amazing! We ended the evening with the Cheesecake with Bourbon Sauce and Pecans . Amazing!!

Ashley Templeton

Monday-Thursday from 4-6, the appetizers are $5 a piece. Get a bunch (crab dip , shrimp lollipops , shrimp and grits , fried green tomatoes , stuffed mushrooms , etc) and share around - best meal ever!

Charlotte Gargis

Heirloom tomato salad was wonderfully fresh and tasty. We split it, so this picture is only half. It was very lovely.

Natalie Lucas

Truly enjoyed the scallop Rockefeller. The flounder was just good.... I was happy I substituted their homemade chips - very good side item choice.

Crab Dip...The Scottish Salmon is great.and my favorite cocktail is the Basil Mojito

$5 apps every day from 4-6. Check in with the mayor in the house and get a $5 app at the bar any time with the purchase of an entree.

The view on the patio is great, but the traffic noise from the bridge is annoying.

The shrimp and scallop scampish is great! Order a glass of Pinot Grigio to go with.

One word. Crabmelt. We drive past Wilmington on the way to the beach each year and we always stop just for the crabmelt.

Very disappointed with the shrimp and grits . I expected the food to be amazing based on reviews but everything seemed average at best.

Lisa Morris

Grilled Veggie Panini is great

ryan ware

amazing meal and beautiful view !

Andrea Stewart

I ordered the Chicken Prosciutto for lunch . I cut into the chicken and it was completely pink. I got a Turkey BLT instead. The manager took care of it, but needless to say, I wont be returning.

Bess

Stick with the seafood . Its definitely what they do best! The other meals were average.
