Food was very good and people are very friendly. My only complaint is the valet service, something you had to use (it is complimentary). When we received my car back when we were leaving the restaurant, almost everything had been changed. My steering wheel, seat, not sure about mirrors as my husband drove and didn't mention them, etc. I'm sorry but there is NO need to adjust anything when you are parking the next row over! It is a very busy place and it's tight getting cars in and out of their small parking lot. There is jus... read more

Hey there Doreen, thank you for taking the time to review our free valet service. Our valet drivers typically adjust the settings so that they can drive comfortably and park your vehicle safely.

The chowder was not the best, mainly potato & butter. Shrimp cocktail & mussels were good but the onion rings were so, so. Rum punch didn’t have much of a punch, even for the bucket. Probably wouldn’t go back.

Service was wonderful. We went for my husband birthday. The shrimp 🍤 cocktail was great. My baked scallops were only so so this time. Everything else was great 

Business response:

Hello Kristine. Thank you for the review. We are thrilled to hear that you and the hubby enjoyed his b-day dinner. Thank you for the feedback about the scallops so we can address that issue. We appreciate you helping to make us better. We hope this 4 star review can be changed to a 5 star future visit. Hope to see you both again soon.

Poor offering on buck a shuck Wednesday. Oysters were small and tasteless, obvious farm raised and prematurely harvested. Served on a platter of water which washed away all the brine that is half the enjoyment. I would hate to think this is the same offering that would’ve been served at the $2.75 each normal price. Better shape up or discontinue oysters on the menu. 

Business response:
