The menu only lists "Oysters" but on our bill our half-dozen order was listed as 2x of three different kinds, we'll be sure to ask which specific oysters are available next time and take our pick!

We arrived around 6:30 PM and had to wait about 30 minutes for a table. Our waiter mentioned that wait times are typically longer during the summer months. The good news is that there are several shops nearby, so you can easily spend the time browsing while you wait. The service was excellent--our waiter was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. While the food is a bit pricey, the quality and flavor make it well worth it. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back again.

Open and clean. Our waitress was friendly and nice. We always enjoyed Capt Loui. Their seafood boil sauce is unmatched. The flavor and the kick is amazing . Funnel cake with vanilla ice cream to end the meal is a must. My only complaint is... you only get one potato and one corn for the 3lb option. I feel like it should be a potato and a corn every pound. Just my opinion.

The Scary Mary was showstopper in the best way possible if you're looking for a fun photo-op, loaded with seafood, bacon, and steak pieces. After a few days of trying so many lobster rolls, I opted for the Bourbon Marinated Steak Tips. They were tender, flavorful, and so good with the whipped potatoes and bourbon glaze. Definitely one of my favorite meals in Salem! Great service and suggestions from the staff!

They're outdoor deck area now has screens which is a big improvement from what it was before. Keeps a nice comfortable bug free atmosphere while enjoying the sites of the ocean.

A very good time with good vibes good tunes and very good food.

It's your basic Italian seafood place. There is a singular type of clientele inside, which tells you how your experience will go. We got tuna "tacos" (more like crudo) as appetizers. This was the best part of the night. The tuna was delicious. For our mains, I got the New England Bouillabaisse and my friend got a fish dish. The food was on the salty side, it's great to have this down the road instead of having to go down to north end. We ended the night with the flourless cake. Our server was very friendly! But the food was just ok. Drive a little farther and get some Mexico Lindo instead.

I made reservations for my birthday dinner in July all the way back in December, so it was…read moredisappointing to arrive and be told that my reservation had somehow been canceled. After waiting about 20 minutes, we were finally seated. Despite that rocky start, the food was so outstanding that we ended up coming back every single day during our stay in Salem. The biggest inconsistency was the service. Out of the four days we visited, only one day stood out as having exceptional service. Most of the time we had to flag someone down for drink refills, order more oysters, ask for Parmesan cheese, or even leave our credit card hanging off the edge of the table before someone would notice we were ready to pay. Now, onto the food because that's what kept bringing us back. The clam chowder and lobster bisque were the true stars of the menu. These are the kinds of soups you'll still be thinking about long after your vacation is over. The lobster bisque was unbelievably rich, creamy, and packed with generous pieces of lobster. The clam chowder had the perfect consistency and, unlike so many others, was loaded with tender clams instead of mostly potatoes. The one-and-a-half-pound lobster was sweet, tender, and practically melted in my mouth. I wasn't in love with my pasta dish. The scallops, however, completely stole the show. They tasted as though they had been pulled from the ocean just moments before being cooked perfectly fresh, sweet, and delicate. Unfortunately, the pasta itself was undercooked and lacked flavor, even after the Parmesan cheese finally arrived. The strawberry shortcake was the perfect dessert on a hot Fourth of July afternoon. It was light, fresh, and exactly what we wanted to finish the meal. And the oysters? Absolutely phenomenal. Every single day. They were consistently fresh, delicious, and one of the main reasons we kept coming back. While the service has plenty of room for improvement, the kitchen is doing something truly special. The quality of the seafood alone was enough to make us return day after day, and that's about the highest compliment I can give a restaurant.
