    This was my first time at this restaurant, and I went to celebrate my husband’s birthday. From the start, the experience was disappointing. I told the hostess it was his birthday, hoping for a warm welcome, but she just looked me up and down, said nothing, and started walking away. We assumed we were supposed to follow her. She seated us, handed us menus, then the drink menu fell on the floor, she made no attempt to pick it up, I did. There were only two other tables occupied, yet we were completely ignored. The hostess was busy with one table, another server was handling the other, and neither acknowledged us again. After sitting for 25 minutes without even being asked for drinks or water, we decided to leave. As we walked out, the male server was standing at the register. He didn’t say goodbye, didn’t ask if something was wrong, didn’t even look at us. For a restaurant experience—especially for a birthday celebration—this was incredibly disappointing. Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

    We did a seafood boil party for my husband. The seafood boils were sooo good. The sauce and the seafood was fresh and they were big portions. Our guests were so pleased that one couple booked it for their anniversary.

    First time visiting this restaurant with friends, and I admit that I was very well surprised by the menu offered. So the food was good, there is room for improvement and I understood the message of the owner. I also want to thank and praise the manager/ owner, who is a teacher, by the way, for hosting us and surprising my colleagues and myself with a cake 🎂 🥮. The move was unexpected but very well appreciated by everyone. The restaurant can be a little hard to find if you have never been there. It is good to add a few indications, like it is close to Ross and within Advanced Auto. We will be coming back for Happy hour this summer and more. Thanks 😊
