A crab cake disappointment. I always try them when I see them on a menu but these missed the mark. The texture felt like lump crab meat from a can, thrown into a food processor with breadcrumbs. Flavor and depth were both lacking. Honestly, this version of a crab cake was such a letdown, it nearly brought a tear to my eye. Please, spare us this abomination.
UPDATE: 12/3/25 it was so good we went back the next day! This time we had the apple cider calamari again, crab smash and lobster roll. I’ve never tasted anything better! Even their butter was good!! Try the apple cider margarita! 12/2/25 Wonderful stop! Had great service from Grace and the food was amazing. You won’t regret the Apple cider vinegar calamari, smash burger or fish and chips. The espresso martini was delicious!
