My family's first time eating there. Definitely won't be our last. They keep the all-you-can-eat crab legs coming. 10 out of 10! Great server. She was very nice and engaging.

I’m from south Florida. I love living in North Carolina/Tennessee, the only thing I miss about my old life is the seafoods, but not anymore! Best oyster and shellfish menu, PERIOD! Florida, N.C, TN! I couldn’t recommend enough!! By the way, ask for Sherry, she will treat you right!!!!

I feel as if I can't quite illuminate how miserable the food was. For $50 a person, I've never gotten so little so poorly prepared. No identifable crab in lukewarm crab gnocchi, which was $30 for half of a small plate--literally, just empty space on one whole half of the plate.Oysters were solid, beer was good, I will never be back.

We cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. We were greeted as soon as we walked in the door and Monroe provided us excellent service throughout dinner. The oysters were simply amazing. We will definitely return to try some other menu items.Highly recommend ?

We just rolled into Hickory from the airport-perfect lunch-oysters were super tasty. Had the ceviche, tuna poke-excellent. Service was friendly and definitely worth coming back for. Food was a treat!

Why did I wait Years to try this place?!?! Wonderful steamed oysters and we got the Tuesday deal. 100% will be back and would recommend. Tried a blood orange hard cider that I can't stop thinking about too.

Cant even find crab legs this good at the beach, couple that with being all you can on Mondays, a great staff who was on top of everything makes this place hands down the best seafood anywhere around!

After a hike at the Lake Hickory Park decided that it was time for lunch. Had no idea there were so many different types of oysters. Went alacart. All of them were delicious. Still had some room leftover and tried the ceviche, and it is a generous portion for the price.I'm definitely glad I stopped.
