Great dive bar atmosphere with fresh as it gets oysters! The bartender grabs your beer, wine, soda or whatever, takes your order AND shucks your oysters! The night I was there they had Chesapeake Bay oysters. We got them raw and they were magnificent! Napkin caddies mounted right above the bar seats. Super convenient and great use of space. Super smart on many levels, if you ask me! We got a pound of peek and eat shrimp, BIG and perfectly seasoned! So delicious! Last we had to try the gumbalya and it did not disappoint. Full of shrimp, andouille sausage etc (I can’t recall all that’s in it). Broth is full of flavor with a pretty good kick! Not a lot of rice, contradictory to the name, but I wouldn’t change a thing. This is definitely worth the visit! Very reasonably priced, too 👍🏼👍🏼

Amazing seafood at a great price. I highly reccomend the raw oysters and rock shrimp. Their quality, taste, and price point are all above average for the area.

Fun community atmosphere. Great place for karaoke on Wednesdays with Tommy. Food was solid, but not an extensive menu for dinner entrees. Oysters were fresh and good quality. Lisa and Stephanie were friendly and attentive bar hosts. Will be back.

The food was good, and the service wasn’t bad, but the vibes were OFFFFFFF when my friend and I came in. It’s clear there’s a collection of local that go a lot and they gave us some not friendly looks when we came in. No one said hi to us, no one welcomed us in, our bartender was nice but only after ignoring us for a while first. We almost left, but then she came over and seemed much friendlier all the sudden. Food was great but on bad vibes alone I probably wont be back ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Love everything on the menu, but the Oysters Rockafeller is hands down my favorite! My husband is usually grossed out by oysters and would never ask to try. He saw mine tonight, tried a bite and ended up eating half it!! They’ve gained a new fan! The service here shines too!
