From the sweet, tender Jumbo Snow Crab to the crispy, golden Flounder Fish and Chips served with tangy slaw, each dish is a testament to the kitchen’s dedication to quality and flavor. The All You Can Eat Shrimp option is a must for shrimp lovers, while the Lobster Roll offers a rich and buttery bite that pairs perfectly with a chilled glass of wine from their thoughtful selection.

    Excellent service, very friendly and attentive server. Had the rainbow trout with roasted potatoes. It was very delicious. Wonderful atmosphere with the view of the water. Would definitely come back.

    This was our first time here and it won't be our last. *** Update We celebrated my husband's birthday with friends recently here because we had a great experience the first time. The food and service were above my expectations. This waterfront restaurant is beautifully decorated, bright and airy. Spacious seating inside and out. Large windows to look at the water and marina. You can come by boat too. The food is incredible! Deliciously seasoned, not overpowering. We started with mussels and oyster rockerfella. We asked for bread to soak up the sauce, so yummy. Tried my husband's Mediterranean Grouper, this was out of this world. I had the Grouper Tacos. Lightly battered, large pieces of grouper with lettuce, tomato in their sauce, beans and rice, delicious. Fresh vegetables selection. Fabulous cocktails. Our service was inpecable. This is dining at it's best! Kudos to the chefs! Everything cooked to order, not precooked. You'll want to come back. If you agree, please give a thumbs up.

    What a wonderful place. Our server Leza (spelling?) was awesome. I had the captains plater and omg. Huge portions. It had shrimp, scallops, flounder and a good size crab cake. No I couldn’t eat it all. It was very good and it came with two sides. I had broccoli and coleslaw both were very good. My husband had the shrimp plate and it came with so much shrimp we brought some of that home too. It was blackened to perfection. He had fries that were very yummy and coleslaw. We took home dessert which we had to try before we left and it was delicious. It was an orange cake. It might be a little pricey but let me tell you, you get what you pay for! I can’t wait to go back.

    I had the fried grouper sandwich and coleslaw while sitting at the bar. It was a Saturday night around 6:30 PM and it wasn't crowded. But, we are in the slow season now when the snowbirds have went home and the summer tourists are not in full swing yet. Service was fast, food was good, and my sandwich had the toppings I asked for and was piping hot.

    So I have to start this review by saying the food is AMAZING the service is excellent and it’s only mildly loud (small road) I had the burger and tea and it was easily one of the BEST burgers I’ve ever eaten I would 100% recommend eating here! This place definitely deserves 5 stars (I don’t often leave 5 star reviews)
