Tried this place for the first time, even though Bethany Beach has been our preferred vacation destination for 25 years and counting. We found out tonight what we were missing. Avacado and beet salad, shishito peppers, and gochugaro pork belly were outstanding, as was the pistachio and pomegranate cheesecake. Service was friendly and attentive. Our new favorite restaurant in Bethany!

Weren’t allowed to order a drink at the bar while we waited for 35 mins for our reservation when there were multiple open tables across the restaurant, including the two on either side of “our table” which weren’t filled until after we were seated. Food was good but not great.

I had an incredible dining experience. The Thai lobster was absolutely outstanding, perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The scallops were seared to perfection, tender and rich, easily some of the best I’ve had. To top it off, the crab fondue dip was fresh, creamy, and utterly delectable, making it the perfect starter. Every bite felt thoughtfully prepared and beautifully balanced. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates fresh seafood done right!

This place is fantastic. Wonderful atmosphere with the cutest attention to the details. The menu is perfect for all and the hand crafted cocktails are delish! A must visit!

Our server, and the whole team, were super nice and quick. Gave great recommendations on which foods to choose/pair together. The food was amazing. Highly recommend and will return!

The service was the highlight of my visit. The atmosphere is very loud. The restaurant is cozy so you’re often listening to other’s conversations. The shrimp and grits were so spicy my lips were burning. It was the worst version of shrimp and grits I’ve ever experienced.

We've been here several times in the last few years and it's become our FAVORITE restaurant at the beach (and one of our favorites anywhere). The cocktails are some of the best, period. The food is delicious, fun to share with the table, and has great variety. We've never ordered anything we didn't love, or which we didn't think was worth the cost. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. We plan to make this a go-to for every future beach trip!

Probably the best swordfish I've ever eaten. The food was amazing. The drinks and the service were also outstanding. We shall return!
Every time we visit, this place somehow manages to top itself—and the new additions to both the food and drink menu are absolutely phenomenal. The flavor is always on point, and the creativity behind each dish and cocktail is what keeps bringing us back again and again. It’s not just a meal—it’s an experience. If you haven’t been yet, this is a must-visit spot. Thank you Tia and company!

They only have four seats at the bar (FYI). The drinks and food are great! Unfortunately, I rarely saw the server and took over 20 minutes for tacos. I finished and ordered a new drink by time the food came. The hostess was wonderful with helping me with a table since the bar was occupied and her consistently being active while at work. It was just one of those days - hit or miss.

Great drinks, great food, and great atmosphere! Unfortunately, the staff took away from all of that resulting in a one star rating. Poor service will always ruin an evening.

Disappointed. The swordfish special had no taste and the vegetables that were served with it had way too much salt. It used to be my favorite restaurant in Bethany.

I used to love this restaurant and was genuinely excited to come back—especially for the cornpone Caesar salad I’d been craving. Unfortunately, the experience was incredibly disappointing.
We waited 50 minutes just to receive our cheeseboard. When the Caesar salads finally came, they were missing the cornpone. Only then were we told they had run out of it. Had we known that upfront, we never would’ve ordered them. That should’ve absolutely been communicated before taking our order.
We also expressed how frustrated we were with the slow service, and instead of an apology, we were told, “It’s slow for everyone.” There was clearly not enough staff, and they were overbooked. Every table around us was experiencing the same issue—we spoke to others and all were waiting excessively long for their meals. Yet no one acknowledged the situation, offered a heads-up, or made any attempt to apologize.
At the very least, they could’ve informed us upon arrival that they were short-staffed and running behind. A little communication and consideration would’ve gone a long way.
To top it off, the food was subpar and some of our dishes were brought out incorrectly. This place is not what it used to be, and I’m really disappointed.
