Delicious octopus appetizer cooked perfectly and the fried soft shell crab sandwich was tasty and the roll was just right. My husband had the New England Chowder and it was creamy and flavorful with a nice amount of clams. The Coconut Shrimp tasty, crispy, not dried out and a great dipping sauce with some spice to it. Loved the Lavarita and Mango Rita.

We had a nice time, good food. However don't buy the oysters. The ones we had were $3.50 and were so small, they were not even worth $1.

Shrimp box is the best gem of the shore! Food and drinks are delicious and most importantly the staff is so so welcoming! We love Blake and always feel like family when we're here! Also get the killers!!!

Had a wonderful experience and an overall delightful experience! The scallops app was so flavorful. There were so many yummy sounding options on the menu too. The key lime pie was good too, more subtle than I'm used to, but it was kind of like a cheesecake in texture. Give it a try. I enjoyed it!

We ate dinner here last Thursday with our family and it left A LOT to be desired. The food was good, my drink was not that great on flavor. The worst parts was them lying for a 20 min wait to a family that has a toddler and baby. That 20 mins turned into 45+. We would not have stayed had we known that from the start. So many people left the building yet it took them ages to bring new guests back. Once we finally got back, you can’t hear a damn thing in here. It’s so packed and loud. We could barely hear our baby fussing/crying sitting right next to us over the volume. We couldn’t even hear our server talking. Our server also literally forgot to take my husband’s entree order. He asked me then just walked away after. Super bizarre. Whenever we come back to point pleasant, this place will not be revisited that’s for sure.

Appetizers were good but unfortunately the meal fell way short. Shrimp and scallops were over cooked and dried out

Terrible experience paid $17 for 5 pieces of shrimp then the lobster bisque had no lobster in maybe a small piece or 2 then on top of that we all got sick after. Will never eat here again for sure

I am very disappointed with our experience, our waitress was horrible, she came around once to take our drink order and then came back to take our food order. Our food took forever to get to our table, And when it finally did, I was very dissatisfied. I ordered the 2 pound lobster. It was $56. It came with french fries the lobster was good. The french fries literally were ice cold and in a clump and they were probably maybe 10 french fries altogether on the plate. I would be so embarrassed if I worked in a restaurant and as a waitress presented that to My customer if I’m paying $56 for a lobster that came with fries give me a $56 plate, My husband ordered the $30 trio, which was shrimp, flounder, and scallops, and that looked very un appealing. It came with a baked potato that was shriveled and overcooked as for the Waitress after she presented us with our food, we have not seen her after that. She never came back to ask if we wanted any refills on our beverages or even to ask how food was no ketchup was offered nothing when I realized there was no ketchup on the table, even though I didn’t need the ice cold french fries she was no way to be found. She finally came back to clear the table and asked how everything was and then asked if we wanted anything else and I said yes we would like coffee with milk. Please not half-and-half or cream and low and behold she brings us a coffee with half-and-half. It’s very discouraging when you go to a restaurant and you pay 115 dollars For a meal and you walk out of there upset and I have no problem paying for good food, but also good SERVICE has to go along with it!!

I came with a large group before a boat ride. We were seated right away and orders taken shortly after. We had a prefix menu with certain options and everyone enjoyed all that was served. It was a weekday and not crowded but we did have to go to the bar ourselves if we wanted a drink with alcohol. I had salmon which was absolutely delicious.
