Called an audible and stopped by HM for happy hour. We originally requested a table of 4 but a few others ended up coming. The check in crew was more than accommodating and set us up on the balcony! Our server Kaylie was awesome and kept the drinks refilled and had some great suggestions to try from the menu. Everyone enjoyed their meals and 1.00 oysters, come on you can't beat that.Only recommendation as not being a regular I would make is have a happy hour menu. Great place, location, view, service, and food! We will be back

Seems permanently closed. All boarded up.One star because you still had hours listed and yet were closed when I got there. Another person complained of the same issue a month ago.

Would be nice if you would update your hours on google to save people from driving to your location and kissing the doorknob because you are closed for renovations. First, last and never again.

Very disappointed. We didn’t get to experience this!!! Open table is still giving reservations and restaurant is temporarily closed.

This restaurant was closed for renovations and did not let me know. We reserved this for our anniversary dinner so this would really ruined our night. Not only did they not let us know, there was no information at the restaurant, on their website, Facebook or Instagram. I tried calling and they never answered, finally got a hold of them via Instagram and they weren't even apologetic. I definitely would probably never go there again because of that experience alone. Further more I had another reservation coming up to which I had to hound them again to see if they were open and they responded late again of course and said they could offer me alternative suggestions. I don't understand how a business doesn't check their reservations and let people know that they won't be open, very poor business skills.In response to the owner, first of all you did not notify me about the closing, if you had I wouldn't have had to show up to the restaurant, even after I got the email that week reconfirming my reservation.Secondly, I am not sure what you consider someone "demanding" an answer, I had to ask you twice if you would be open on Sunday 1/22 because you did not respond the first time, I have the instagram messages to prove it.Thirdly, you did not offer to help me with reservations elsewhere for my 1/22 reservation, you offered suggestions for other places. Please get your facts straight before you try to make me look bad for what your business did incorrectly. The only reason you even responded to my review as quickly as you did (which was literally in a matter of minutes) is because this was posted on the internet and now it can affect you, whereas me just messaging you doesn't matter because nobody can see the messages.However when I called on Friday, I got no answer, when I messaged you on instagram it took you 30 minutes to reply and I was at the restaurant, waiting for some sort of response. I then had to message you again yesterday, which was 3 days later from the original message to find out about you being open on 1/22, because you never answered my question on Friday!!!! You read only the first message and that was it.The message I sent through facebook took you 6 hours to respond, so again please do not try and make it seem like you went out of your way to promptly respond when you did not. When it wasn't public, you did not care about sending a prompt response, nor did you care that you messed up an anniversary dinner and a birthday brunch - saying "sorry for the inconvenience" is not even caring that you ruined someone's night because your restaurant couldn't even have a sign on the door saying it was close - I mean really, what restaurant does that?? Also you don't even have it listed on your instagram, facebook or webpage.Lastly to further prove my point, if I had not asked, you would not have even notified me of the restaurant not being able to honor my reservation on Sunday because opentable would have sent the reservation reminder as usual.

Went there for dinner food was very good. Was there two years ago and the food was just ok and the place was not clean.Quite pleased place and bathroom was also very clean. I will come back

Had a company event here, the staff and the venue were phenomenal. They have a speakeasy room used for private events and it is the coolest. You enter in through a freezer door and are ushered into an avant-garde world to hang out and have some good craft beer with your friends. Theres arcade, pinball and plenty of space to hang out. Their strongest beer is the Panic Attack, though for my taste it was a bit malty. The Holy Passakos was awesome and went great with some chicken wings. Our bartenders were awesome and made for a great night.

Went for their Friday night all you can eat crab legs and shrimp and left very pleased. Our server, Gabby, was the absolute best and I don't take that lightly, there's no way there's a better server than her out there she was so amazing it's hard to top her very caring and enthusiastic personality. Everyone who assisted us was amazing as well including our bartender Derrick. The food was cooked fresh and came out quickly with great flavor. The fresh beer from the brewery tasted fantastic. I'll be back soon.

Never coming back! We ate here a year ago and had the best bbq pork and ribs. We thought we’d return tonight and it has went downhill. I had the pork platter. My sides were served cold and the broccoli was so bad I spit it out. The birdseye I make at home is way better. The mashed potatoes were just chopped potatoes with cheese on top. Half the pork was fat. My husband had the Philly cheese steak and said it was nothing but fat. It’s supposed to be a brewery but they only had 7 beers and they were out of 2. Bill came to $60 which was ridiculous for the quality.

Saw an Instagram post for their all you can eat snow crab legs and thought we’d give it a try. It did not disappoint. They were delicious. Did I mention how amazing the old bay spice was on them? Soooooooo good.We went an embarrassing 4 rounds of crab legs ??.Nick was our waiter and he was really amazing. He kept putting in orders before we even knew we wanted them. Also, it was happy hour- two for one drinks. #GLUTTONY #DELICIOUS
