    Me and my friend went to this restaurant for the first time. She ordered crab cake and I ordered the smoked fish dip with vegetables and pita bread with a side of French fries. The waiter was very friendly and on point with making sure we had drinks and checking in on us. The atmosphere is laid back and very unique. Looking forward to seeing a band play next time, they had a list of events on a chalkboard outside by the bar. I highly recommend this restaurant even though there's new owners they're definitely making a great change to the menu and the vibe.

    Great atmosphere, staff, and food! We were able to get a table right away on a Friday night at 8pm. They had wonderful live music and an attentive staff. Great drink options and they have some coleslaw and potato house appetizers that come after you order. Our food was well cooked and seasoned. We will definitely be back!

    We just walked in there today and were pleasantly surprised by the way we were treated. The staff is friendly, the food was delicious and very reasonable. Bathrooms were immaculate and fresh smelling. Dawn the owner came over to see how we were doing and we had a nice conversation, she told us they have music on the weekends, that’s a plus in our book. I’m so happy we went there and we plan to go back and bring our friends. You need to check this place out!!!

    Figured we try a new local Spot— Good food, and a great atmosphere, live band, and staff was friendly-However a few recommendations though …1. with an order of lobster tail a small cup of butter should always be served with it with, and 2. There was no ketchup for French fries and since my waiter was hardly seen during dinner I ate them without or they would have been cold by the time I got the ketchup. Overall though we enjoyed and would go back for sure- oyster Rockefeller 5 stars all the way !!!

    My wife and I went last weekend. We've seen the bar before but decided to finally visit. When we arrived there was a band and we sat at the tiki bar outside. The band music was great and it was of the era that we liked. (90s). The mood was very good and a lot of people were either singing or dancing to the music. We had their fried pickles and split a hamburger. Both were awesome and cooked perfectly. The owner of the establishment was actually there working alongside his employees. The bar staff was great and we will definitely return in the future.
