Straight up great seafood. Had the oysters and lobster. Both were excellent. Also recommended the key lime pie

This place is exactly what you expect- tons of fun, a little pricy. GREAT for big groups, and if you go on a Sunday a guy makes balloon animals for you

The fish is definitely fresh here. But I would not order the main dishes. There was a tiny piece of overcooked salmon on a huge bed of potatoes. If you want to pay $28 for potatoes with a little bit of fish this place is for you.
The scallops were ok. You can go to a good restaurant in Europe and eats scallops on risotto that are out of this world at a better price. The cooking here is average. An average Joe type of place.
Maybe I didn’t order the right thing. I asked : what’s fresh today and the waitress said everything.
Last time I came the mussels were really good.
I would not order the main dishes.
