First time at this restaurant. Food and service were excellent. We had the hush puppies, strawberry…read morespinach salad, steamed spiced shrimp and an old fashioned. All were so good. Hunter, our waiter, was taking care of multiple responsibilities while maintaining a great attitude. He checked on us frequently and was very accommodating. There were tv's around and music playing, but it was quiet enough that you could still easily have a conversation. Can't wait to go back!

We came here on Thursday around 3pm for an early dinner. Cute restaurant with lots of space and a…read moregood size patio with bar. Started off with the crab dip, it was super good and creamy! We then got the ceaser salad, which was very good as well. I ended up getting the scallops with a sweet potato and Brussels sprouts. I was highly impressed with the way everything was cooked, the amount of scallops they gave me and the service was great. They kept my water filled and made sure we had everything we needed. My mom got the shrimp fettuccine Alfredo and it was AMAZING. The sauce was homemade and creamy, and very flavorful. We walked out full and happy. I can't wait to come back next time to try something new or even get the scallops again. I was blown away.

I went to Ocean Crab and I will say this--the owner is very nasty…read more There's a little skinny Chinese guy (the owner) who acts like no mistakes can be made and he is NOT a man of his word. I ordered food and what I asked for was not even in my order. So I called to let them know. He told me when I come back I could get another plate or something else and I wouldn't have to pay, especially since I live far. When I got there, his whole attitude switched. He got aggressive and said, "why would I tell you that? nothing is free." I didn't even get to eat my food. Now let's talk about the atmosphere. Ever since they started playing loud music in there, it's just not the same. It's NOT kid-friendly at all. It's supposed to be a restaurant, but the mixed vibe is off. It turns into something else at night and honestly, it doesn't feel safe. If you go later when it's crowded, just know what you're walking into. Don't look at nobody wrong, don't drink too heavy, don't bump into anyone--because it can turn into a fight real quick. The ONLY positive thing I will say is Sandra the bartender--A+. If you do go, go to her. She's really good at what she does. But overall, the service, the attitude, and the environment is not it for me.

I've been wanting to try the Lilly Pad for a minute because I've heard so much about it, so let's…read morediscuss. The vibe here is EVERYTHING!!! It feels like you are on vacation but you are 20ish minutes out of the city. I came on a night where they had a DJ, the DJ was really good and also curated the "pseudo vacation" vibes. I'm giving them a 3 stars because of the vibes. I'll definitely be back for Salsa night. I loveeeed the ambiance however, the reason for my rating was the food and the drinks. If I was solely rating for the food, it would be 1 star! The food was so disappointing, so much so that I didn't even bother finishing and didn't take it to go. First, I tried the crab dip, it tasted extremely raw. Very strange. A lot of cheese. I've never really tasted crab dip like that before. I give that, 1 star. I also ordered the calamari, didn't like that either. It had no flavor and was so greasy. It was served with marinara sauce and that didn't really elevate the taste either. Tried the catfish po'boy and that was the best thing I tried the entire night. I would give that a solid 4. The fries that was served with it was DOSED in seasoning. It was so salty, that alone with give me hypertension and cause my demise at age 27. Had to stop eating those after a few bites. The drinks were okay, a little too sweet. Taste like no alcohol. I was disappointed in even that too! Overall, the ambiance here is great! I wish they would put more effort into the food because this place has such good potential

When me…read moreand my co-workers were talking about the food truck, they weren't interested because it was mostly vegan but I was the only one who didn't mind it and didn't change my mind. I decided to settle with a Turkey Burger and Fries because as much as the Garden Salad and the Shrimp looks delicious, the pricing was just a little bit much. But I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt since it's a small business. I was bummed out for them not selling any Smoothies (Not in the Chester Location but only in the Glen Allen as far as I know) but I wasn't disappointed with what I got. The cooks were pretty friendly and the food came through in pretty good timing. I would definitely come back and try the shrimp next time, if they come near my location. :)
