Our only experience here while visiting was not good and so much so I can’t say we would return. Our server was wonderful but she was the best part of our experience. I was served expired soup and my husband received “fresh” fish that tasted days old and still had bloodline on the fillet. The staff took the soup from the bill without any question and apologized for the kitchens mishap. Due to the quality of the seafood I would caution what is occurring in the kitchen and be wary of eating here.

Went here on a school field trip. We had to select what we wanted before arriving. My husband and I chose the angus cheese burger & by far the worst hamburger I have ever had! Who serves a hamburger without options of the basic toppings? When asked if I could get lettuce & tomato she told me no. We literally got the burger with melted cheese on a bun. Not even ketchup or mustard.

The hostess was rude . I asked for a booth of the water view and she told me the booths were reserved for 2 people not 1 . Mine you being I have a walker and spine issues sitting in a hard chair is a little difficult . I asked her to get her manager. She never came back to seat me so I went and sat in the booth after it was cleaned . My waitress was sweet . My total bill was almost 62.00 so it wasn’t like I didn’t leave a tip . The pork belly was good . The flounder and potatoes were lukewarm .The fish was very dirty tasting . Best thing was the pork belly . It will be Captain George’s or Dirty Dicks for me next time . Not impressed. C+

The service and Christmas decor were great. The food was inedible. I had the scallop carbonara. I've never seen a scallop cooked to destruction the way my scallops were cooked. Way, way beyond rubber. The dish was not carbonara... everything was simply smothered in a super salty Parmesan cheese sauce. Others in my party were not happy with their meals. The serving staff was very nice. The Christmas decorations were really beyond.
