Incredible! The crab cake, steak, crab soup, and hake sandwich is exceptional. Their wine selection is also great for the price. I’ve eaten in the restaurant and ordered carryout - both have been great experiences. This was the best choice to my fiancée’s coming home meal from his deployment overseas.
My husband and I stopped in for an early dinner and we pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the attentiveness of our waiter. We ordered the calamari and they were perfectly cooked and the smoked tomato coulis that was served in lieu of marinara I would have eaten right off the spoon. My husband ordered the crab cake which was more mustardy that I am accustomed to, but he and I like mustard so that was fine. I ordered the shrimp and grits and they were outstanding....read full review
Been here a couple times, and it really has come together. The food has always been incredible, and it some of the kinks from the soft opening have been worked out and the restaurant has a good flow to it. We walked in to a packed house on a busy Friday night and had a wonderful time; can't wait to come back for more of the lobster bisque!
