This place has a fun Florida vibe. It’s a little loud, but a great spot to chill with friends or anyone. I really liked the relaxed and casual atmosphere.

The oysters are the main reason I come back. They’re super fresh. I’ve tried most of them:
• Summer Love and Island Creek were clean and refreshing, but honestly a bit overpriced
• Salty Mainer had a dirty ocean flavor. Kind of stinky, but still fresh. Not for everyone, but I didn’t mind it
• Eastpoint and House oysters are my favorites. They’re affordable, especially on Mondays or during happy hour. Eastpoint has a creamy, fresh flavor that I’ll definitely order again

The service needs improvement. No one greets you when you walk in, and the staff seems really busy. We waited over 30 minutes before realizing our food had gone to the wrong table. No one checked on us, and we had to flag someone down. The staff was kind, but everything felt disorganized and understaffed.

The food was hit or miss.
• Mussels came out lukewarm, and most of the shells were still closed. It was frustrating to eat
• The corn on the side of the mussels tasted super watery. This was my least favorite part of the meal
• Fish and chips were perfectly cooked, but the seasoning on the fried coating was too salty

If you’re coming for the oysters and the laid-back vibe, it’s worth a visit. Just be prepared to wait, and skip the sides.

Great place for an easy going afternoon, excellent food (try the ahi tacos) and superb staff. Everyone is friendly, has a smile, makes great suggestions and no pressure to order or finish! Selection of beer and food with interesting mixed drink options; and a real plus for the daily specials! Thanks and we WILLL be back.

They were very skimpy on the Fish n Chips. I was only given 2 medium sized Fishes. My wife, who ordered the Chicken Tenders, received 4 tenders. For the price of these meals, l expected more.

The place itself, service and food were good, I just didn't enjoy my entree choice. I didn't realize some places serve their lobster rolls cold, but that was just my mistake I guess. My family enjoyed their meals, and the service was very good.

Love this place!

Very disappointing. Had a reservation which was not needed on a Sunday at 4pm. Waitresses talking in the back playing on their phones. Couldn’t make a Pina Colada No Blender! Waiting 45 minutes for appetizer over an hour for our dinner which was quite bland. Won’t go back!!!

Great Food, Great Service – Highly Recommend!

I had a great experience at this restaurant! The atmosphere was really nice and welcoming. I sat at the bar, and the barmaid/waitress was super friendly and attentive throughout my visit.

I started with the oysters, which were amazing. They had a selection of about four or five different kinds, and I loved that you could mix and match. Each one I had was fresh and delicious. I also tried the crab leg cluster, which came with corn on the cob, very flavorful and cooked just right.

Since I was still a little hungry, I added the fish and chips to my order. The fish was perfectly fried with great flavor, and the fries were seasoned nicely, crisp, and tasty. They also had a nice small selection of beers on tap!

Even though it looked like only two people were working in the kitchen, they were doing an impressive job keeping up with orders as the place started to fill up. It looked like they even had food and drink specials seven days a week. The overall price was typical for this type of establishment.

Everything I had was really good, and the service was top-notch. I’ll definitely be back!

We were first introduced to this place during a work meeting. Ever since then we have been coming back every few months. Everything on the menu has been worth trying and never disappoints. Obviously you would be better off if you are a seafood lover, as most of the menu is seafood. The drinks are also amazing and not watered down. Will be coming here every time we’re passing by and craving some seafood. Bussin!

We were excited to try this restaurant. Learning of seafood genre near us and being from Long Island. Sadly, we were disappointed in the quality of the food.

Clams on the half shell is my go-to. There was hardly anything in the shell. The shrimp boil seemed to be pre-made with clumps of seasoning and dried out shrimp.

Putting it mildly, my son's chicken tenders were more appetizing.

We had an extremely disappointing experience at this place. No one warned us in advance that an automatic gratuity of such a huge amount would be added to the bill. On top of that, we were shocked to find out that paying by card costs almost $10 more than paying in cash. That felt incredibly unfair and left a bad taste in our mouths.

The food itself was definitely not worth the price — the quality didn’t match the high cost at all. Honestly, the whole experience felt like a rip-off.

There are plenty of other places in the area that serve better crab and seafood without charging outrageous service fees. We’ll be going to one of those next time — not coming back here.

Everyone who worked there was great! Marissa was our server, and she was very attentive to all her tables. Main issue is the website for this chain stresses on the fact that it is family friendly, but when we asked for a high chair, we were informed they did not carry high chairs. Unfortunate.
