I enjoyed the outside balcony. The food portions were good.

First time here, and they had a dozen of steamed crabs for $25, and they were good! Not real spicy, but they were served with containers of melted butter, vinegar, and old bay-style seasoning.
Sit outside on their deck and enjoy the breeze off the water while enjoying a cold beverage. Try the flounder po' boy, perfectly seasoned and fluffy.

This place is a scam, visited last weekend. Total bill 40$, left a 6$ tip and somehow got charged with a grand total of 86$ on my credit card. 46$ dollar tip came out of nowhere. Try to reach them out and couldn’t because their phone is disconnected and the bank state that I gotta talk to them really disappoint. Never coming back

Needs new management! Dirty...trash cans full running over in bathroom. Bar tender lacks personality. She seemed to cater to local daily customers.

Read the other reviews you'll get the gist, we'll patronize other places next time. Server was great though, he was by far the best part.

Friendly and prompt staff and I loved how the restaurant overlooks the water but unfortunately the food is not good at all. The crab dip tastes like a warmed block of cream cheese with a very small amount of crab. Entrees were bland and not worth the price.

First had to wait to be seated, for almost empty place. Once seated, had to wait the kitchen was backed up, for 30 minutes, so only drinks were being served for 30-40 minutes. The food was absolutely horrible, not worth the wait. Crab cakes made from can Crab meat, possibly mixed with other meat fillers; Flounder over seasoned; Baked potatoes under cooked, stringbeans undercooked, wings undercooked and bland. Scallops undercooked and over seasoned. Bartender sleeping with head down on the bar ..WORSE experience and food Ever.. This place should be closed or get a do over
Always closed hours before it’s supposed to

Memorial Day Weekend, we should have known we would have been disappointed as it was empty. The view from the outside deck is beautiful, and the service was great. The food is definitely NOT something we would return for. The bloody mary was made with some sort of chili powder. It tasted like I was sucking a cold bowl of meaty chili through a straw (not a good mix) and way too thick. We ordered steamed spiced shrimp. They were deveined and easy to peel, however, very mushy and lacked all flavor. The spiced was more a sprinkle of pepper vs. What one would expect when ordering spiced shrimp.
4 stars for the atmosphere, only because of the beautiful outdoor seating. The inside smells so heavy of febreez air fresheners it makes you wonder...what are they trying to cover up??
Overall, this place has great possibilities with the location and view. The food and outdated interior leaves much to be desired.
