Best crab cakes I’ve had in all of Norfolk. Every time I have eaten here my dish has been amazing.

All of the employees are so friendly. A casual locals spot with upscale food. Comfortable atmosphere, great vibes and delicious food. I'm still working my way through the menu but you definitely have to try the Rockfish Bites.
