Great food, great service. There were 3 options when picking seating for my reservation for my party: high top, standard, or outdoor. I explicitly chose standard because I didn't want to be outside in the heat of summer. Be forewarned that ALL seating is outdoor - some is covered but it's still outdoors. There is seating at the bar & a couple of tables for two, but nothing for 3 or more. If I had known it was all in the heat I would not have reserved this place....
The food was wonderful. Our service was okay, a little less attentive than I would have liked. Drinks needed refilled and plates cleared. The restaurants ambiance was nice, however the benches along the perimeter of the patio was a set of benches where people were smoking suggested and weed so the smell was overwhelming.
We had late lunch in spring - it was perfect! We got a huge crab cake with amazing sauce; the fried combo basket, which arrived arrived piping hot (shrimp especially good); and the raw oysters were fresh and delicious.
