We had a reservation for a table of six at 7:00 p.m., but unfortunately, we were overlooked while…read moreseveral other groups who arrived after us were split up and seated first. By the time our order was taken, it was 8:59 p.m., just one minute before the kitchen closed. The service continued to be disappointing. Two of our three appetizers were brought out together, but we waited an additional seven minutes for the third appetizer to arrive. When our entrees were served, all but one meal was correct. Additionally, there was an older staff member who was loudly cursing and creating a disturbance in the dining area, making comments such as, "Watch, there's still customers." This was unprofessional and took away from the dining experience. We've been loyal customers for years because we've always enjoyed the food and welcoming atmosphere. That's why this visit was especially disappointing. It's unfortunate because this is one of the few family-owned seafood restaurants in the area, and we've always enjoyed supporting it. We sincerely hope this was an isolated experience, but after this visit, we're left questioning whether we'll return.

I get the rustic barn concept with all of junk they have hanging on the wall. It looks like they went to a yard sale of some old fisherman's house, and decorated. The service was absolutely terrible. Took about 30 minutes to get our drinks. We placed our order, appetizers and dinner. No exaggeration, the apps came out an hour later. While waiting for our dinner, the server arrived at our table to inform us they were out of two of our sides. Dinner finally arrived. Small portions, but was tasty. Due to starvation, we inhaled our dinners. The food was tasty, but definitely not worth the wait. Too bad the Red Eye Crab was closed for renovations.

Clam chowder was possibly the worst I've ever had - it was basically milky water with bacon flavor, with hardly any clam. The corn and crab was slightly better, as it at least was not the consistency of water, and had good flavor. Still, hardly any crab to be found. The lobster roll actually had visible lobster, unlike the chowders, thank goodness.

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.

These crabs were so succulent that I was giddy. The crabs were easy to get out of their shells, and the meat was super sweet. The Jimmies were accurately sized. Wow. Delicious.
