    11/8/25 Food was great, snow crab leg appetizer was larger than anticipated. The fried shrimp is to die for. Broiled crab cakes were great with lots of crab meat, not filling. The lobster tail was cooked to perfection! Will definitely dine here again. Pricing very fair for the food we received! Enjoyable evening and staff was excellent!!!

    We waited half an hour for someone to wait on us and the another half an hour for our food to come out. My salad definitely was not worth 11 dollars. It was just bunch of iceberg lettuce thrown in a bowl and shaved parm and croutons thrown on top. My crab dip wasn't worth 18 dollars. It was in a very small bowl like you could feed a toddler. Im always use to going upstairs and getting fast service. When my family came with me I recommended the place. And the service was very disappointing. Luckily the food was good. But they said they wont be returning.

    Only gave a star because I had to in order to review. Everything was amazing from the time my family of 12 came in right up until it was time for desert. At this point our waitress (who mind you was amazing the entire time until now) came out of the bathroom and promptly started nodding out almost falling into my grandmother! I mean full on squatting ready to hit the ground couldn't stay awake long enough to take our dessert order. YOU COULDN'T WAIT 30 MORE MINUTES LADY??? I mean seriously come on. You have no idea how you affected me and my family that night. The food was good the service was amazing until this happened and it completely ruined an amazing dinner. If addiction is part of your story and an event like this could be a trigger for you DONT GO HERE.
