Bacon Wrapped Scallops were horrible! Dry and overcooked. More like very dry fish balls wrapped in leather. Crab cakes were small considering price. Onion rings were limp and cold. We told the waitress but she didn’t care. Never going back- pricey for not that great food.

Food was great. Had the crab soup which was very creamy and not overly salted. Chose the shrimp Po boy for dinner and the ciabatta bread was excellent. Fast service and the drinks were ice cold. Check them out.

Visiting the Solomons island for the first time we decided to check out one of the local restaurants. I’ll start by saying my teens are not seafood fans and I’m picky about it myself. The husband will pretty much eat anything. That said, we ordered several different items to try out. The service was good but could have been a little more attentive to refills and removing empty plates.Teriyaki Brussel Sprouts: I’m a huge fan of Brussels. These however are absolutely terrible. The teriyaki is overwhelmingly overpowering. I think if it were just drizzled over then it would have been amazing! These were caked in it. My mouth was left with a salty sweet taste that was hard to get rid of.Fried pickles: You can’t really mess these up they were good.Cobb Salad: My son really enjoyed this salad. It was massive. He had a decent amount to take home for a snack later that evening. Just ask for your dressing on the side because you will for sure take half home.Bacon Burger: Everything you’d expect from a burger. It was cooked just as my daughter liked and she loved it.Bruschetta Chicken Breast: Ugh, I was so excited for this meal and quickly disappointed when it arrived. It was covered in yet another salty sweet sauce. You couldn’t taste anything else. I had 3 bites before I quit. Took the rest home, scraped everything off of it and chopped the chicken up into a salad.Fried Shrimp: Husband enjoyed it. I tried one and it wasn’t my cup of tea. I prefer thinner shrimp that are a bit crispy when fried. I think because this was a thicker one it was a bit rubbery for my pallet.Bucket Drinks: We had two and both were equally fantastic.

The food was the best seafood I have ever had. It was rather expensive but I guess you pay for what you get.

Excellent food and nice venue. Service was good, but took quite awhile for food to arrive.Parking: Free parking lot but it is small, and street parking is also limited as the island is often crowded especially on weekends.

I had the fried oyster. They were awful. Everyone else in my party said their food was ok.

We go for drinks and appetizers when weather is nice. Anything else is just meh. Sweet baby rays doesn't belong on paper thin chicken breasts, period. I think people like the view and it tricks their tastebuds or something. Staff are always friendly though.

Always a wonderful overall experience at this restaurant. We sat in the bar area so we could still see the waterfront, but watch some sports, enjoy some good food and drinks.

We stopped in for lunch before heading home. We wanted seafood and we wanted to have a view of the water and this place checked both boxes. The food was really good although a bit on the pricey side. Our service was decent. They have two nice bar areas. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but it was really good while we were there!

Met here for a business dinner. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The menu had lots of selections. Parking was tight. The dining room was busy. Nice views.
