Three of us had an early dinner before the ballgame. We had a reservation and were seated promptly. Our waitress was attentive and provided good recommendations. Food and drink were served promptly. Everything from the oysters to the main courses and the cold beer tasted terrific. The restaurant is in a great location with a pretty view of the river, even from the indoor tables. I'd go back next time I'm in the area.
Everything thing we ordered was outstanding, raw oysters, fried crab claws, tuna & rockfish tartare, crab dip with pimento cheese (could have been mixed with another cheese) was good! The best thing was the grilled octopus, Brussels sprouts outstanding, and the watermelon with feta. My entree was the soft shell crab but I added the coconut curry sauce to mine!!!! Yummy 
BEST TIME EVER!!! Certainly, we had the Hostess at the door, THE BEST seat in the house and THE BEST waiter in the house. It was a beautiful summer day and the ambiance was perfect.
