“Food was great, we came back a second time on our visit. But the concern for our well-being after a small incident is what I would rate them five stars for. The management offered to walk us back to our hotel room after a strange person was following and harassing us. The manager came in to apologize for the situation, which she did not need to do because it was not their fault. We appreciated their thoughts and concerns very much!!“

“We had Tyler and a trainee named nick as our servers! It was nicks first day and he jumped right in! Super charismatic and outgoing. Great addition to their serving team! We went for date lunch… and send the kids down to Al’s beach club to eat and play in the sand (with my aunt) while we enjoyed a quiet meal! The crab cake appetizer. Whoa!!! By far the best I have had! And the flounder blt on the lunch menu was beyond delicious! And so much food! Beautiful view, great staff. Oh and when my kids came up to try flounder and crab, the hostess was so sweet and gave them buckets and wiki sticks, which they love so much! This is now one of our favorite spots“

“Wonderful food. Always good. Biscuits are always great but they were fantastic last time. Sweet tea is always good but again fantastic last time. Nice size meal. Had extra to bring home. Only thing that was off. No lobster dishes during lobster fest. They were out of everything but the live whole lobster. Not a big deal for us but we had wanted to get a lobster appetizer that they didn't have. Still we very much enjoyed it.“

“We loved this place. The service and food were awesome. Sit on the pier, the breeze off the water and view was very enjoyable. You can go right down to the beach and enjoy the sunset or even sit on the pier, have drinks and a meal or just an appetizer. We were also allowed to bring our sweet fur baby. Highly recommend ❤️Parking: There is plenty of parking here. Sometimes when it is in the Summertime parking is harder to get a spot. Usually doesn't take long because people are leaving periodically.“
