I would say don’t eat here but just don’t order anything with chicken in it..my bf and I came during brunch time and I had the fried chicken sliders while he had the fried chicken and waffles; (my stomach started hurting while I was eating) .The chicken was very chewy so I took a look at the meat and it was still red in the inside. The same thing was wrong with my boyfriends.

Ate on the front patio. Oysters are on the happy hour menu daily at half price. They are nice sized and tasty. We get sweet potato fries also. If the place is busy, service is slow in the kitchen. My Oysters took an hour to deliver. Hot foods came much quicker. We were glad we had the fries to eat first.

Picture this: Friday evening, beautiful weather. But they’re playing the song “Had a bad day” and the song “in the arms of an angel” and “how to save a life”. Terrible music. Terrible management. They wouldn’t allow us to take our salad to go, because they wanted to throw it in the trash instead.

Food was good but not great. They weren't busy at all but for long stretches of time we wouldn't see our waiter. He wasn't very attentive at all given how few patrons were there.

Had reservations for 2 for a date night with my wife. Seated us in the back of the bar on the smallest table meant for 1 person. We were unable to talk to each other because of the bar noise and the people literally standing around us. Food took an hour to get to us and my dish was cold and not worth the price. It was obvious we were an after thought for the staff. I will not go back nor recommend this place.

The back patio is a nice place to enjoy HH..We had the Tempura mushrooms, Truffle fries, Baja fish taco, and of course oysters...The mushrooms were delicious, and the fries came out hot and crispy! The fish taco was a little lacking, mostly batter.Let's talk about the oysters, I'm always a little turned off by oysters served on cubed ice (shaved ice is just a better presentation), but thank goodness these were..We enjoyed the oysters until we got the last order... I IMMEDIATELY saw what I thought I saw a worm...! Not 1, not 2, not 3 but 6 worms in the ice water just squirming around!Never have I ever seen worms on/with/in oysters at a restaurant. When we asked the server, he nonchalantly said, " Ya, that's normal."Is it normal?! Idk maaaan...Maybe if you pull the oysters right outta the water, but in a restaurant....?!I'm definitely bummed out because we were having such a great time.I'll have to give 3 stars, because the food is good.

I've never had a crab cake that I could eat in one bite. It was the size of a half-dollar. Two of them $16.00.

Had the grilled Maui. Admittedly, was a plain order, but they crushed it. Veggies were perfect, potatoes were fantastic and the fish was perfectly simple.

Our server Richard was fantastic. We had oysters on the half shell, crab bisque soup, oysters Rockefeller and the wedge salad. All were very good. The reason I didn't give 5 stars for food as the soup was lukewarm not hot and the same with the oysters Rockefeller. It would be nice to add some bacon and diced tomatoes to the Rockefeller as the presentation was bland. Wine selection was very good as well. We were there late and didn't want a big meal but would like to go back and try other items on the menu. The location is great and would like to sit outside n a nicer night in the courtyard.

This is a great place for Saturday brunch. We sat outside next the fountain and enjoyed the nice weather. The mimosa was only a $1.50 with purchase of an entree. I had the smoked salmon scramble. It came with 3 eggs, smoked salmon , grilled ciabatta bread with goat cheese and potatoes. The scrambled eggs were light and fluffy and well mixed with salmon. The breakfast potatoes had red and green peppers and onions which enhanced the flavor. It appears they were short staffed that day but our server still made a good effort.

Just had my first and last dining experience with this establishment. Firstly, ordered a dozen oysters and it took almost 45 minutes for them to come out. The waitress came and checked in on us once or twice during that time and told us that the person shucking them is older. Went ahead and put in our food order. 20 minutes later the food comes out, still before the oysters. When the oysters do finally come out, they're soaking in melted ice water. When we start eating, had a few bites of eggs and found a hair underneath the cooked eggs just soaking in egg juice. Immediately disgusted, and all the waitress says is sorry. Asked if we want the menu, brought a menu with the food items list missing, just the wine list on the left. The entire food list was missing from the menu. When she comes to see if we want anything we pointed out and she says “oh crap”. Nothing more. No apology. She brought our second round of drinks with the check, no asking if we were done, if we might want more drinks, nothing. Removed the hairy meal only to find that the drinks on our check were more than what they were listed as on the menu. The whole experience was unpleasant. Be really careful with this place. I definitely will not be going back.
