Everything took forever tonight. Even got the manager involved and still horrible. Very chaotic and can’t believe I just paid $260 for what should have been an enjoyable meal and not me scarfing my salad because my food was delivered on top of the salad. Drinks took forever and waitress was oblivious.

Delicious and tasty seafood found here! Everything was a delight in this restaurant.
We shared an appetizer and a main course between the two of us and enjoyed thoroughly. We tried the crab cake appetizer, which had large enough pieces of crab, it had a great texture to it, and came with a side of salad. As a main, the crab stuffed lobster was amazing and the portion was very large. It has mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables as sides. The flavours were incredible.
Service was impecable.
I highly recommend this place.

I absolutely love this place! The food is amazing, especially the crab cakes, and the service is phenomenal. They have very fresh seafood from the last quarter of the catch on the sea. I also recommend the calamari and the crab stuffed lobster!

Great experience- first time. Sat at the bar- I believe Kayce was our bartender. She was great! Will be back. Love the digital menus that show you what the food looks like. Oysters were great, she let me sample the wine I was in between. Brussel sprouts were plenty and very tasty. She crab soup is a must try!

Came here a year ago with three friends for a four course collaborative meal with Short's Brewing Co. I was excited for four courses (all-you-can-eat oysters, Peruvian-style ceviche, soft-shell crab, and dessert) and beer pairings. The first course consisted of two oysters per person. It was difficult to flag a server down -- when we did so, we were told the oyster course was ending. To advertise the first course as "all-you-can-eat" and serve us two oysters a person is laughable. The ceviche was relatively tasteless and underwhelming -- very little flavor and it had been sitting in lime for too long. The crab was good, and the dessert cake was rather dry. The beers from Short's were tasty. Overall, the prix-fixe menu with beer was a bad deal and left us hungry ($100/person for four small courses and beers).

I would strongly advise seafood lovers to attend other restaurants (e.g. Black Pearl; Gandy Dancer) to fulfill their seafood needs. Sad to say it, but this is far from the best place to dine on Main St!

Nobody makes great lump crab cakes anymore.

EXCELLENT in every aspect!
Food is well prepared, aesthetically appealing and delicious! The clam chowder soup was the best I have ever tasted. The blackened swordfish was perfection, serve with asparagus.
The server, Shawn H., was professional, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. He made sure we were comfortable and satisfied.
The atmosphere is warm, stylish and upscale.
There is not one thing I would change!
We’ve been here twice in the past month and it never disappoints!
Keep up the fantastic work!

If I could give a zero I would. I attempted to try this place being that I'm not far away and I was surprised to watch staff walk by me and my husband as we waited to be greeted. We were dressed appropriately though i noticed people who were dressed and regular attire. If I could guess I would assume that people of color may not be welcomed often..

Oh well! It would take a whole public apology for me to even think about attempting this restaurant again.

This go to place for fresh seafood. The menu has a varied selection of very fine dishes. The menu items are a bit pricey, but the ones I sampled were worth it.

Went for lunch on Mother's day. Food was phenomenal. Wife and I both agreed, best sea bass and scallops we've had. Server was friendly, but didn't seem familiar with the menu. Also, we were seated on a table in an aisle way which was a bit intrusive. The table (for 6) seemed too large for the space. Otherwise very happy with the overall experience.

We really enjoyed the sweet and spicy calamari as an appetizer, but not as much the tuna appetizer. Potato forward, it's not a good match, in my opinion. The Jambalaya was amazing and delicious. A large portion that can be shared. They split it for us in the back and we really appreciated it. We also had a bloody Mary, delicious with shrimp. Highly recommend.
