    Outside of a longer than expected wait for a table with a reservation, an overall great experience! My first time here, but my wife has been here multiple times with her girlfriends. We ordered the large raw platter and everything was fresh and delicious! I'll definitely return to try the hot menu items.

    New Year's Eve dinner service. Live DJ slinging vinyl, lots of staff checking on tables and great tasting seafood. An amazing evening out with friends. We will repeat.

    We had a bit of a wait but the staff was apologetic and made sure to take care of us as we were seated. The food was excellent-the vibe was fun, lively, and different than what is around here. Felt like we were in the city. Can’t wait to go back! Grilled and fresh oysters are a must!

    We love coming here. The food is outstanding. The fresh oysters are delicious. The manager was most gracious and our servers were on top of everything. We had fresh oysters, calamari, whitefish, and ribeye. Everything was delicious. This was definitely fine dining at its finest.
