Awesome vibe and decor. Beautiful waterfront views with a nautical theme indoors. Multi level with 2 bars and plenty of seating. Reservations are recommended but we didn’t have an issue getting a nice table by the window for 2 at 5pm on a rainy Saturday. Cocktail menu was awesome and the flaming crab dip was probably the best crab dip I’ve ever had. The entrees were good but the lemon chicken linguini could’ve used a bit more flavor. Service was quick and attentive, very friendly as well (I think Rashida was our server and she was fantastic). Overall very happy with our first visit here and will be back!Parking: Lots of garages around old town with a flat rate of $15. Some street parking is free and others are paid by the hour.

Been here quite a few times. This time was above and beyond. Mainly because of Kayla. She’s was kind, delightful, and went above and beyond any expectations. Definitely hope she is there next time we go. The live music was amazing also. Thanks, again!Dietary restrictions: Special requests can be difficult to request with many restaurants. Our order, was a bit different due to specific dietary restrictions. Kayla made sure that they did everything possible to accommodate the order. She was superb!

You come here for the ambiance and water front adjaceny. Don't come for quick service or food quality. Waited by hostess stand for almost five minutes to be seated, slow to see our server, etc etc you get the point. We had two hours and it took all of them for a simple lunch order and drinks. We didn't eat the oysters as they were filmy ? and not separated from the shell!!!!! (?) And the Shobb salad, had undercooked scallops and smelly crab. Crispy Brussels sprouts were greasy. Fried Green Tomatoes were pretty awesome. We had fun but .... Just go for drinks and don't be in a hurry

I went in to order take out. Been wanting to try their food as a tourist. The first person I approached looked like he didn’t even want to help me, immediately pointed to the bar tender. Took about 10 minutes to place my order, had to ask again to place my order since it looked like they forgot I was sitting right in front of them. When I finally got my order I didn’t check to see if everything looked in order, I rushed out because I didn’t want to miss the water taxi. It wasn’t until I was on the taxi that I felt a really hot sensation on my thigh from the bag. It turns out the crab dip was partially opened and leaking! When I got back to the hotel, I opened up the pasta and it looked so skimped! Like they threw left overs in the container. I tasted it and it has absolutely no taste at all! The sauce wasn’t even sauce it was water consistency. Paid $50 plus tip for the whole order. I’ll definitely be contacting my bank to dispute this charge. Ridiculous!

Overall food, appearance, and service were good. They are dealing with non seasoned staff members and we personally saw a few issues. Overall, it was a good experience for us.

The food was amazing. My wife and I were able to squeeze in a lunch date today and we decided to stop by Blackwall Hitch. We were not disappointed. I had the Creole Rigatoni. Extremely tasteful. My wife had the MD Crab Cakes. It was not her favorite but still appetizing. We topped it off with the Bourbon Bread Pudding!!! A must have!! Excellent experience overall!
