My daughter and I enjoyed the new York strip steak and we absolutely loved the crab cakes. The wait staff was kind and friendly especially considering that we came in a larger group with many kids.

The only downside is the wait but that should be expected considering the area.

Worth the wait! Staff was extremely attentive, managers visited the table to check on us, the bussers quickly cleared the table, the food came out super fast, and was EXCELLENT! 5 stars!!!

Thanks for a great experience! We will be back!

Friday Nite 6.20 and while we had a nice table outside we were very disappointed by the passive aggressive approach to kick us out when we were still finishing our meal and drinks by placing the check on the table. No ask about if we wanted dessert. We asked for a another round of drinks but that was a flat out NO !!!!... AND TOLD there is a 2 hour wait. Additionally the table next to us got their bill and the woman had not even been 1/2 way through her meal. As we left my wife approached the manager to say how displeased we were who basically scoffed at us. In fact, as we turned he said in the walkie talkie 'they're out they're out' and she confronted him and said 'I guess you were talking about us'. He could have given a crap. He basically said the tourist have the precedence. We are locals and I guess they don't want our businesa during the off season. It's not much a above Chili's.......

Very good, highly recommended. My table ordered seafood of multiple varieties and everything came out awesome. I’ll be visiting again next time I’m in the area.

Our wait time was less than was quoted, so that was a plus. Our food was FANTASTIC. The shrimp and grits was top notch. Wait staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, we have no complaints. We would definitely come back, and that is the biggest compliment you can give to any restaurant.

They have a secret vegetarian menu that has great dishes; the creamy grits are delicious!

My husband and son and I went Saturday for dinner and as always, it was delicious. The crab dip always spot on and the best around. A special Thank You to Tanner our server, he was awesome and did such a wonderful job and made sure everything was spot on for us to have a relaxing and enjoyable dinner. Tanner you were awesome and your personality and how you deal with your customers was great, please keep that up. My heart went out to you and I felt bad after the table next to us ran you and spent $200 if not more and left you such a crap tip, that was so wrong. But don't let people like that discourage you, keep doing you, because you were great!!!

We went to dinner tonight upon recommendation of a friend. Loved being so close to the beach as well as the amazing food and service. We ate indoors because of cold weather outside. Casual atmosphere with great food. We will be back.

There’s just something about having a yummy poboy on the patio over-looking the ocean that sings to my heart. This place has good drinks, good food, a fun atmosphere, and great views of people swimming and surfing. Come on a nice day and sit on their patio. It’s a treat

Parking: This area gets busy so sometimes parking can be a challenge. But if you don’t mind walking a block or two it’s not bad

We had the pleasure of sitting outside while enjoying our meal. The Maryland Style Crabcakes were delicious, the onion petals appetizer was a perfect way to start our meal. My husband said his seafood platter was very good. Our server checked on us often. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend.
