This is one of my absolute favorite places in Pittsburgh during the warmer months. I feel like I’m on vacation. The food is delicious. My favorite part is the outdoor seating near the water. I wish Pittsburgh had more places to hang out and have a meal by the water.

Tasty food and a good view. The carne asada tacos were delicious, and the fries were nicely seasoned. I didn't love the pineapple salsa, but everything else was great.

I was so surprised by this little place! I was told the food was good but I was second guessing what I was in for when we pulled in an industrial-like waterfront area where it felt like one could definitely be kidnapped... but then you turn a corner and there is a super cute restaurant with a large patio right next to the river. It had been pouring down rain but suddenly turned beautiful, so we sat outside.
I actually am not a huge fan of seafood but there were plenty of options on the menu that looked good to me. I picked a sandwich off the special menu with sweet potato fries and my friend had a lobster roll with regular fries. The only thing either of us found a little disappointing was that the sweet potato fries were overcooked.
However, our waitress was wonderful and my friend said his drink was great (and he is super picky)... so that bumps it to all the stars.

Another great place for all you can eat crab legs. The crab legs are always hot, perfectly cooked, and big and meaty. Mussels and salad were amazing! Perfect service and delicious food as always. It is an outdoor dining with a great view! Highly recommended but hurry last day for the season is October 5th!! Spring hurry up already!!

EDIT: gave two star initially to be kind, but after reading reviews of blatant racism, down to one star. AVOID.
Absolutely over rated. Had a larger party, so we had to wait for a table, but it took an hour and when the table was ready we had to figure it out, no one called us over. This place is EXPENSIVE. I could have gone to Aldi and made the same meal I had with a better atmosphere for half the price. I’ve worked as a line cook at places that charged LESS for fresh food. This place is crawling with frozen, prepackaged foods. Frozen fries, frozen battered shrimp. The heck? I’m tempted to think they have fish smelling candles burning in the back so it smells authentic. No prices on their drink menu. Sangria was FIFTEEN DOLLARS. $15 for basically apple juice. Everywhere else is like $8 for that. Maybe shorten your menu and offer quality seafood, rather than basically glorified Long John Silvers. Worst $50 i’ve ever spent. Our server was nice though and it was very busy. When my friend got the wrong drink, he just comped it. I feel this kind of spot just shouldn’t be in Pittsburgh. Wish I could get my money back tbh. Lesson learned. go anywhere else.

Owner, Management and staff, We had an exceptional dining experience at your restaurant today and wanted to ensure you received feedback about it. Our grandson accidentally dropped his toy from the patio, leaving him devastated. Fortunately, our server, James, intervened and retrieved the toy, impressing us greatly. As long-standing loyal customers, this experience has further solidified our loyalty. Thank you, Heather Donohue

Disappointing Experience – Not Returning
We arrived at the restaurant around 6:10 PM and didn’t get seated until about 7:20–7:25 PM. It was very frustrating, especially since we were there to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and she was getting really hungry. The male host didn’t seem to be managing the waitlist properly, people who showed up later, and probably pushed their way ahead kept getting seated before us.
Once we were finally seated, we placed our order right away since we had already decided what we wanted during the long wait. Unfortunately, it took another full hour to get our food. My fish and chips were overcooked, and the fish had a slightly fishy taste, not fresh. Others in our group felt their food was just average at best.
The only positive was the nice view, but it definitely wasn’t enough to make up for the poor service and mediocre food. We won’t be coming back.

This place was god awful. If you’ve ever had good seafood in your life, you would know this is trash. The lobster roll was COLD and looked like imitation crab meat, it tasted so fishy it was awful. The ahi tuna salad was so bad the fish and dressing were gross. The only good thing were the fries… also the LED lights on the patio was so bright especially at night and there’s a lot of bugs. I don’t get the hype. Go to the strip and get actual good seafood for half the price.

We got crab cakes and a poke salad -- both were good. Service is good. The servers were sort of in the background, you almost don't notice them, which is kind of good, but all friendly and polite. Location is gorgeous (at least in fall)

Come for the atmosphere. Stay for the food. We pulled up here for lunch while boating on an unseasonable warm September afternoon. Ahi bites: fire. Mahi sandwich: fire. Pizza: excellent. Randy was a great server. I can't wait to return.

All you can eat crab legs. Went for my daughters 9th birthday. FYI all you can eat crab legs cannot be defeated. We tried hard. It was like the crab legs started off mid, them they got better as they came out. That is to be expected, you can't completely control the quality of crab legs. But they were still delicious. They kind of just see you finishing up your plate and just bring you another until you cry uncle. For 80 bucks I would def do it again. Suggestion, add a fried fish, catfish, swai, tilapia something to give a variety with the crab legs. Atmosphere. It was absolutely beautiful. They only have outdoor seating. The only issue.....latern flies. They were abundant and aggressive. We ended our birthday dinner screaming And running. They def need a hug control there.
