Piss poor management with a lack of consistency. Many other places nearby. Check them out instead

My wife and I always stopped in for music and drinks but the last two times we went the drinks were tiny and very expensive. Also the food quality has been lacking as well. I understand you have to pay for the experience but this was too much for too little.

We attended on the 4th of July. I had reserved a table on the outdoor patio for nine people; when we were on time, we were told that table wasn't available, and they sat us inside on the other deck under a screened-in porch. I had reserved on the other patio to watch the fireworks; the host lied to us initially and said we could not see the fireworks from the reserved table. We eventually got them to move us just before the fireworks, where we could see the fireworks plain as day. It took us asking 3-4 times to get moved. I had spent much time deciding where to sit on the 4th and making these reservations. It was obvious that they were overbooked and tried to get out of it. I am only giving three stars because we made it out onto the patio before the fireworks started. The food was also meh. Everyone did enjoy the calamari, however.

Vegetarian options: I had a flatbread; it was inedibly spicy.

Got seated right away on a Friday. Had a live band playing. Cute restaurant right on the water. Food was good but not a huge selection.

Great atmosphere and service. Wish they had more food options though I liked my fish and chips. My husband was slightly disappointed in the cold crab salad dish that he was served in clams. He was expecting a bigger portion.

Don't go here. Service has deteriorated.
Hostess couldn't find our online reservation, slow, but courteous service. All entrees were bad - overcooked, not fresh, tasted frozen. Drinks were iced down.

We sat outside watching the sailboats coming and going, but we're distracted by the many people loading and unloading for daily sailing excursions. The food was nothing special, but expensive, our order did not come out correctly and there was a significant delay in getting the correct meal brought out (meal was brought by the time the rest of the party was finished eating) with no compensation other than an insincere "sorry about that."

We were a group of 6, and everyone was overall pleased with their food. I ordered the fish and chips, the fish was very tender and the fries were good. I also tried the cod bites. These were good, and they really don't skimp on the fish. The swordfish and shrimp scampi were very good.

The service was pretty good. When we arrived, we let the waitress know that the tables were uneven and she quickly fixed it. The prices are high since this is a tourist trap, but they serve your drinks in plastic cups, and the atmosphere outside was too casual for prices.

So disappointing. The atmosphere was dark with no lighting on the table. Service was efficient but uninspired. He did the minimum. We all ordered the Mahi Mahi and it was just so awful. Very dry and tough; the asparagus was oversized and tough, and the fingerling potatoes were soggy and greasy. The only saving grace was the blueberry salad. Even the drinks were not very good. I am unhappy.

Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. We had a table of 13, and she kept up with all of us!The food was amazing, and the drinks were good. Fun spot next to the water of the marina. My scallops were amazing! Everyone enjoyed their food, and the prices were competitive for the area.

Parking: Parking for free is a nightmare, and we had to park 5 blocks away. Save your frustration and park in the paid parking lots in the area.
