Great seafood at a decent price in a relaxed atmosphere. Seating is outside at picnic tables, of which only some are covered. The service is very friendly.

Fish is right off the boat. BYOB and have a great meal. Probably the freshest fish I've ever had.

Fried cod fish tacos - Amazing! The cod was perfectly seasoned. Paired with the pineapple coleslaw— I don’t even like pineapple but this one was an unexpectedly great combination!
Seared swordfish fish tacos - The fish was not as well seasoned so the coleslaw ended up overpowering the fish.
Chowder fries - This one comes down to personal preference. My husband loved it but it was okay for me. It had too much sauce to my liking and made the fries soggy.
Pro tip: Finish everything right there! We made a mistake by taking the leftover home since we were full, and oh boy, they didn’t taste as fresh.

Five stars!!! Wow, I myself am very picky when it comes to seafood. Here we tried the crab claws, fried shrimp, flounder fish taco, and the flounder fish sandwich. It was all exceptional!! Even the mustard sauce was amazing. I asked for extra so I could take it home. We will definitely be coming back. I don’t think I’ll have seafood anywhere else around.

Overpriced. Food was edible. Could be hotter and slightly seasoned. Honestly too expensive for a shack. Not a restaurant at all.
PS I should explain $24 for 5 fried shrimps with a plate of what seemed like refried frozen fries is alot to pay. The loaded fries loaded but not worth the money for overfried fries with what seemed like hot sauce and ketchup because I didn't taste crab. Tacos were good but alot of money for fried fish and lettuce with sauce. That's like a fast food joint.
Parking: Parking free but seating area is nothing great this is a small shack like place but priced like a restaurant. Tried it but will not spend over 100 where I gotta lift my leg to sit.

You literally sit at the dock that the fishing boats tie up at. Amazing fresh seafood. Always visit when down at the shore. Call ahead to see what’s on the menu for the day.
Dietary restrictions: Usually plenty of GF options.
