The tables at the far end backside have great view of blue water. When we came here on Friday noon, it wasn't busy. We got a table right away. Parking was hard to find nearby, but I got a spot on JFK Blvd, just couple of minutes walk to the restaurant. Their menu is full of so many large size seafood dishes. We first started with the delicious oysters and clams. The steamed flounder was a flavorful fish, came with a large side of rice. The lobster Mac and cheese was a the best of all, filled with large pieces of lobster and excellent tasting Macs and cheeses. The restaurant is semi self serve. We had to go to the register to put in our order. They allow paying with credit cards now. All staff members were super friendly. We got a bunch of complimentary bread and butter. The dishes were prepared within short time and they brought them out to the table. After the lunch was done, they came to clean the table too. Overall a fantastic seafood location to dine together for small and large groups.

The staff were friendly, and everything was made fresh. We ordered in person and waited about 15 minutes for our food. I ordered the lobster roll, which was packed with lobster and extremely filling. They definitely don't skimp on the meat! It wasn't my favorite lobster roll I've had, but I still really enjoyed it. My parents ordered the fried shrimp and scallops platter, which was flavorful, and cooked perfectly. A great spot to check out when you're craving seafood!

It's not cheap but quality seafood and getting all the ingredients, paper, seasonings would've cost the same or more maybe. The ease of it makes it worth it and it was absolutely delicious. Only downside of this location was finding a place to park so you aren't carrying a huge container of seafood three blocks down the street. Regardless, I'll be back again whenever we are in town.

We started with little neck clams on the half shell, ate 'em up quick! Entrees come with salads and the house dressing was quite tasty. We ordered both the broiled seafood combo and the fried seafood combo. The broiled combo was fresh and perfectly cooked. The fried combo was crispy, hot, and disappeared much faster than it should have. What I liked most is that this place doesn't pretend to be something it's not. No frills, no gimmicks, no seafood tower balanced on a piece of driftwood. Just fresh seafood served by people who know that's why you're there. By the end of the meal, we were full and happy. But not too full to grab a piece of coconut cream pie to-go that I spotted on the way out

It is BYOB so don't forget your wine.. or even margaritas (that's what we brought this time lol) The place can get crowded so expect to wait a bit during peak season. They don't take reservations but you can put your name in and wait outside their shop or even hang by the dock to the left of their place. The dock is not huge but a nice size and can sit up to groups of 8 easily at some of their tables. They do a full service dinner and includes their Caesar salad and bread with a delicious olive oil sundried tomato dip. The dinners come with 2 sides or 1 side of pasta. My favorite is their crab cakes or any crab stuffed dish. My other favorite if you are feeling hungry is the crab Marie. It's a fettuccine pesto light cream sauce with an abundance of lump crab meat. The seasoning is delicious on all their dishes is amazing. Full of flavor and butter. If you aren't into dining in or waiting get their takeout. It's just as good! And don't forget to grab a loaf of their Italian bread and sharp provolone in there.

It was definitely not the best seat in the house, but hey, we did show up on a busy July evening! We were seated in the back of the house on the 3rd floor. It would have been great to get the ocean side of the building, but I could still see the ocean from the window near our table. FYI- There is an elevator if you cant do stairs. I had wanted to sit outside, but it was the middle of a heat wave so we chose the air-conditioned indoor table. The indoor temperature was perfect! We were greeted right away, and given menus. The service declined from there, but it was not terrible. The server was just not as attentive as I would have preferred and we waited for things we needed on 2 different occasions. We were surprised to find out it is BYOB. The waiter suggested a nearby liquor store where we quickly picked up a bottle of wine. He gets points for this suggestion! They did not charge an uncorking fee, which surprised us. We ordered an appetizer, one of the salad specials, the Branzino and the seared tuna. The presentation of the meals was very pleasing and the food was excellent. It's very pricey, but the food was delicious and the portion sizes were more than adequate considering the type of restaurant it was. I am still giving this a 5 star rating despite the slight annoyance I felt toward the server's lack of attention. Also, to be fair, he could have been having an off night. (I was a server years ago and you just don't crush it every night waiting tables! Life is hard and I watched other servers crushing it with their guests.) I'm very picky about restaurants and enjoyed this upscale dining experience. I would not recommend this for children( as a mom there are limited choices for littles and its more fine dining than a burger joint) but definitely a great establishment to try if you are interested in paying for good food.

It was very breezy today but still nice to sit outside. Nice view of the marina and bay. I was torn between two items but the server recommended the chicken salad on a croissant so I went with it. It was delicious but I don't think I've ever ordered chicken salad at a restaurant lol. The croissant was fresh and soft with a nice buttery flavor. The lettuce and tomato were fresh. The chicken salad itself was good and dense enough to stay on the croissant when you took a bite. Not a lot of seasoning/flavor but overall a great sandwich. It came with potato chips but I'm not a chip fan so I ordered a side of cheese fries. The fries were hot and crispy even with the cheese on top. Perfect sized portion. This is a relaxed place on the bay that I like for breakfast or lunch. Not a lot of parking spaces if you come by car.
