Ate there with my wife Saturday, 15 April. Came recommended by another local business. Large proportions. Tasty and fresh! Had Coastal Club(?). Very good. Came on toasted sour dough. Camarero was Daniel. Pleasant, efficient, professional and kind! We were apparently too early for Saturday night seafood (all you can eat) but was starting as we left. Wow! Looked and smelled great! We'll be back for it! Oh! You'll need reservations for that!

I've had several meals here and thgenerally been very good....including the Turkish Meatball platter and the NY Chicken entree'. The only disappointment was the Scallops over Pasta entree'. I'm not quite sure how this can be sold as "Scallops" since it appears to be composite of possibly Skate or Shark meat with a binder. The wait staff made it right after I commented on the dish.

My boyfriend said "the food here is what can only what can be described as a war crime against your mouth." I agree as mine was not good, extremely greasy. The staff was nice enough and Lots of parking though.

We are regulars here! This is our place where everybody knows your name. The food is always great and so is the service. You always get a lot of food for the price.

I eat here often. Nori always comes out to say hello. This is the closest thing we have in Onancock to a "Diner". Food is always good and reasonably priced.

Don't be foolish by the lack of reviews. The place is definitely unique. The food was superb! Our waitress was truly comical. She said you're the last to arrive will have to be stuck with the bill. She had NO idea I was deaf. I am bummed we didn't stay for dessert. She gave us (13 of us) excellent services!

I love, love, love their Saturday night special of shrimp and crab. They cater to their customers. My Mom likes her chef salad without the lettuce and they are always happy to accommodate her. The service is friendly and quick.

Inedible. We tried; we really wanted to like this place. We ordered a bunch of appetizers and 2 meals, and there wasn't a single item that tasted okay. Even the olives were watery and off-- how can you mess up olives? And then we found a hair in the coleslaw. We ended up throwing the whole order out.

I'm updating this review from 3 years ago! Forget the expensive food on Chincoteague! If you want great food for a decent price this is a must! We come here every time we come to our house in Parksley! Their stuff flounder for $18 is a must! 2 pieces, not one like most places and the owners are fantastic people. Old review When I goto a new place and see a 4-5 page menu I immediately set myself up for disappointment. I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the food we received for lunch today. Everything looked fresh and was made in house. We did select from the non traditional fair as the owner is Turkish and his wife Italian. The Turkish meatballs were very good and moist. The portions are very large! We also tried a selection of appetizers and they all where delicious. I cannot say enough about the fresh bread and balsamic or oil and cheese. I still think the place could use a menu-reduction, get rid of the traditional America crap and stick to what you do well. Overall a great lunch and friendly staff ! Going to try the seafood tonight. I hope it's a bit more seasoned than last time!! It's the eastern shore. Don't be afraid of the old bay!!!

Went with the family to give it a try. Got the all you can eat crab and shrimp and was not disappointed in any means. Only issue was the service was slow, waitress was sweet as pie however and would apologize, but just seemed like it was hard for them to keep up, I will say they were packed as well. Will be going back again when back in town lots of great sounding foods.
Working in the area and passed this place. Checked it out on yelp and decided to give it a try. We were not impressed at all. We sat at the bar, there was one other customer dining in while we were there. The waitress/ bartender took her good ol time getting us menus..... soooo slow. Order a water to drink and both of our glasses were dirty, lip marks on one of the glasses. Decided to try the bacon cheese burger. The burger was dry and no flavor, the microwaved slivers of bacon were gross, the ciabatta bun wasn't even toasted. The previously frozen store bought fries were hot and crispy but sucked in flavor. The waitress never gave us silverware and was nowhere to be found after delivering our food, I had to get my own. The almost empty bottle of ketchup she gave us ran out and had to wait forever for her to come around for us to be able to ask for another bottle. And she bring us another almost empty bottle. We had asked for napkins and she gave us each one. The restaurant at a glance looked clean, but if you actually look you could see all the dirt on the floor, glasses, ceiling. We will be in town for the next 3 weeks and we will not be revisiting this place. The service sucked. Our waitress was not a happy person. You could see she was just a miserable person. And for only 2 tables to take care of at 4:00 there should be no reason for the shitty, slow service. On a side note... Yelp please please please stop making me select 1 star rating for shitty places and shitty experiences. They do NOT deserve the 1 star recognition

Fantastic service, food and price. Couldnt be happier. Chicken Dianne was scrumptious, the penne ala vodka was creamy and decadent, the chicken Rubin was massive. Amazing cannoli. The pasta was perfectly cooked, even the croutons in the salad are worth mentioning. The cream of crab soup was tasty, a tad salty but really creamy and thick, you could eat it for breakfast over fresh biscuits. Service was prompt and efficient, our soup and salads almost hit the table before we finished ordering. Entrees came promptly after the starters were cleared away. I've been fairly unimpressed with eastern shore food offerings so far, things sound great, but the execution, price and portions have been lacking in my mind. Not here though, the extensive menu is a lot to take in, but the extremely competent kitchen staff seem to have all their bases covered. It probably doesnt hurt that the owner is fully involved with the staff and customers. Great job everyone!

Generous homemade portions (we both had pasta). Reasonably priced. Friendly service. A great find on our way home from Ocean City. Real Italian cannoli was awesome.

Lunch here was great for fresh salads with good quality Mediterranean ingredients. These were well priced at lunch, but we didn't see them as a bargain (as other reviewers have). We got the antipasti plate and a Greek salad. Both were large portions, fresh tasting, served quickly and efficiently. The décor is dark and a bit dated, but it's all part of the charm.

The problem with Route 13 is that it is a LONG drive, even if you're just going between Delaware and Norfolk (oh I wish that was the case, we are typically on a five-hour trek). If you want to stop somewhere for lunch or dinner, it will be average fast food at best. My own research on Yelp revealed this restaurant, and indeed it is as good as everyone says. It's not just the only good place, it is actually very good,
