“We took our visiting family members whom all want Seafood when they come town, to St.Mary's Seafood and More on a Tuesday evening for dinner. Everyone had a great time, and everyone (7) in our group commented on how fresh the seafood tasted, the portion sizes and how great the food tasted. Our service was excellent also, she was on the spot for whenever we needed anything, but she was not in the way either. A great evening for all. Thank You, to Nammour the Owner, to the Cooks and Wait Staff. We will continue to come back.
So if your wanting Great Tasting Seafood and value you can't go wrong with, then visit St.Mary's Seafood and More.“

“This app is asking me to rate their hotel. I've never stayed there, but I can rate its outside Restaurant and Bar. This has always been a great place to enjoy good food and listen to local bands. If you visit it once, it may become a frequent stop.“

“Always great food and service.“

“A thoroughly charming and popular spot. Great menu and excellent attention by staff. The food is ordinarily great. On this evening, the main courses (fish, chicken) were excellent, but the sides (carbs, veggies) were barely warm. Management was very considerate when billing. Definitely going back whenever we're in the area.“

“Wonderful experience. Great food and everyone was incredibly kind.“

“Great service and food. Fun atmosphere. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“We had a great meal here the other night. We chose to sit outside under the covered patio which was great because the indoor dining area was little noisy. They brought out complimentary bread and an amuse-bouche to start. We ordered the Bone Marrow and Escargot as our appetizer, which was very tasty. I actually prefer this version over the Escargot option at David's. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and selected some wines to complement our meals. For the entree I ordered the Faroe Island Salmon and my partner ordered the Georges Bank Sea Scallops. He said they were some of the best scallops he's ever had. We finished off the night by ordering the Chocolate Bomb for dessert which was also delicious. It was light and rich, and it came drizzled with a raspberry sauce that really enhanced the flavors overall (I'm a sucker for raspberry). We will definitely be coming back to explore more of the menu.“

“Awesome food and service!!!“

“Love it! Manager is sooooo nice! Server was great too! Lots of food!“

“We had the most amazing food and service. We sat outside with our pup and they even had heaters since it was Dec and a little chilly. The Shuckers famous blue cheese oysters were hands down the best cooked oyster combo I've had. I will now be demanding my restaurants back home make mine with blue cheese! What a gem. Thanks for a great experience.“

“We ordered from here frequently when at the pool daily and the wait staff was kind and the food wasn't bad, one waitress even brought us a complimentary guacamole since the seagulls literally ripped our whole basket of chips and guac apart when we stepped away for about 2 seconds to grab my other child to sit and eat the food we ordered. We appreciated that very much. However, on our last night we dined here and my children were served raw chicken tenders with the batter oozing out and when cut open just complete raw chicken beneath the fried part. THANK GOD I didn't just give my kids the tenders to eat and cut them open for them in attempts to have them cool off quicker because they were so hungry. The waitress comped their meal (even though their meals were half off during the promotion), but we appreciated the gesture at making raw chicken being served an okay thing. Other than that the food was alright, the calamari was fishy tasting and my mahi mahi was rubbery. It was convenient to have by the poolside to order from the menu offerings were nice but don't think I'd actually dine here for dinner but would order poolside again forsure.“
